Agree. But I think the fault lies with the FO and coaching staff. Marvin doesn't get touches or plays called for him. The organization suffers from "AK-itis." They're so used to having a SF who has been a liability on offense that they haven't adjusted to utilizing Marvin at all. He has skills. Granted, he's been slowed by injury, but Corbin needs to call some plays for him. There's been too much of throw it into Jefferson and have him try to back down the defender. If the Jazz could get back to more ball movement and making sure everyone is involved, I think Marvin could be an important part of the team.

To a certain extent, I agree with zbone. I'm disappointed by the youngsters as I expected much more of a jump by Favors, Kanter and Burks. There's been progress, but not a lot. But I have to remember that Favors and Kanter were incredibly raw entering the league. And Burks is being asked to become more of a playmaker/PG. I think all 3 will be solid; I had just hoped for more from all of them at this point.

Marvin is not in the same league as AK ... all he does is shoot better.
 
I voted Favors. I expected much more out of him, limited time or not.

this.

there have been signs of improvement. FT and passing have both been pleasant surprises. but he seems to have lost that capacity to make those really dynamic, impactful plays that he showed late last season. just that physical, raw, eye-popping **** that creates momentum. i'm sure part of this is due to injury, as well as minutes, but still. it's disappointing.

i expected more outta marvin too. not loads, but just slightly better output than he had at ATL and for him to be more of a quality glue guy. his first game gave us a teaser that he just hasn't lived up to.
 
I voted earl watson because quite simply, he is the worst player on the team.

But i should have voted for marvin because after pre-season and all the wet bandit love, i thought he would be much better

I voted for Marvin for that very reason.
 
I vote Jefferson. Guy took a giant duke on every sign of improving or even being willing to. Contract death can't come soon enough. It's gotten to the point where if Jefferson is re-signed at all then I will find another team to root for. I don't care if he takes the vet minimum, I don't want to watch Al Jefferson.

And yes, this is a threat to the Jazz organization because they read all my posts for game insight.
If for no other reason this would be a good one to wish Al would re-sign with the team. :)
