The Trib just ran a story about how bad our bench is/was and how there is nothing on the roster so the deals had to be made because Dante had lost so much and there was nothing else there. So I went and looked at the box score of our two games with the Bucks and what do you know? In a 3 point win and a 4 point loss Bradley had 7 points and 8 boards (Rudy played) and 8 points and 11 boards when Rudy did not play. Exum dnped both games. It seems like Quin has been fibbing on Bradley and we have no idea that he was or wasn't lying about Exum. Also based on the Locke/Snyder metric about how much Ex had/has lost I would wager that Stockton would have been totally worthless his last five years of playing with us.
 
Huh? In addition to Lock saying that Dante didn't look right in practice, Andy Larsen also said in an article after the trade that it's clear from watching the portions of practice that the media is allowed to watch that Dante doesn't have anywhere near the same burst he did before this latest knee injury and he said his shooting looks worse than ever. Quin wants to win, if he thought playing Exum ahead of some of the other bench guys would have given us the best chance of winning then he would've been in the rotation.

Homey is saying that the Jazz organization is pitching the notion that our bench is bad and there are no answers on the roster, but that its mularkey. It's something paid Jazz insider Tony Jones pitches for the team on the regular as well. He constantly tweets stuff similar too "the bench isn't performing well but there are limited options".

The truth is that Bradley played well in his minutes but Quin doesn't WANT to play him. We have young players who are balling but Quin doesn't WANT to play them. We have options but Quin doesn't WANT to use them.

This is what I was trying to say. The only metric for DedEx in the game vs Toronto (Jazz were down 40 at half) where had had 9 points and 2 boards in 11 minutes (but it was garbage time that doesn't count) and vs OKC with 4 points and 3 boards and a high + total. The narrative totally ignores Bradley's contributions when called upon. I think Quin had more options from the Bench including JWF, Brantley, Morgan, Oni and NWG and the late great DedEx and Bradley. It's kind of sad the media didn't call bull pucky on Quin's and DL's self serving narrative.

The local media seem pretty subservient to the organisation
