What's new

CJ Starting tonite at the 3 ......

I am in favor of a starting line up of Dwill, Hayward, CJ, Ak, Okur as soon as Okur is healthy again. I feel this would give the Jazz the best chance of not losing the first quarter of nearly ever game. You could come off the bench with Watson, Bell, Evens, Milsap, and AJ. This allows the Jazz to play AK at his best position. This allows Millsap to come off the bench and be a beast against teams second unit Power Forwards. This matches AJ up against second team Centers while he is "learning the system" and a new position. I also feel our first team gets better in that everyone but AK can at least shoot in streaks. Dwill can create with CJ/AK/and run Pick and Rolls and Pick and Pops with Okur.

Obviously this doesn't work if Okur isn't healthy. Also this gives Ole Jerry lots of options to create mismatches and create problems for the other teams. As well as bench players who are shooting poorly. Okur/AK solve our issue of being undersized down low and actually should increase rebounding and with these line ups you could still play 2nd unit players starter type mins of they are having a good game.

It is about time we tried something different to try to jump-start this team.

You are the winner, sir. I'm frankly getting tired of the Jazz going through the motions while the opponent jumps down our throat. At the least, CJ will be shooting and trying to make something happen. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing Ronnie Price starting at the 2 instead of Bell.
