(twitter) Jodie Gennessy: Corbin admitted the Jazz don't a have a traditional 3 man but said size helps natural SGs Gordon Hayward and C.J. Miles play the SF spot. Corbin also said Millsap and Evans will see time at small forward

Not sure I like this at all. Sure, the Jazz have players to fill the spot, but I was sure that it would be Raja and Burks at the 2 and CJ and Miles at the 3. If we have 4 natural 2 guards, and no natural 3's, I can't imagine that the team will be balanced.

Only good news about this: more time for Evans and Millsap.
 
I don't think Gordon is anymore a natural SG as he is a natural SF. I would rather see him at the 3, myself. The other three, though, all seem like 2's to me.

I think it should be GH getting big minutes at SF with the next most going to Millsap. Then the 2 is held down, hopefully, by Burks (primarily) by mid-season. I'm just not all that hopeful we get a whole hella lot out of Bell/Miles. Pessimist?

Realist.
 
So Coach Corbin is saying we have players with Small Forward size but shooting guard skills. If they put in the effort in rebounding and defense this a plus for us.

Keep in mind that Corbin played small forward in the NBA and wasn't much of ball handler. He was a good defender and rebounder.

Welcome!

And yes, CJ has shooting guard skills. Poor skills, but those few that he does have are primarily as a SG.

Welcome Mo Tappin - Hope you enjoy posting on here. Alas CJ has all the skills in the world, but he has always proved to be to inconsistant to be worth a starting position.
 
I would love to see Evens develop into a good 3 man. He can rebound, he has length and good potental quickness that I dont feel he has developed due to being asked to play the 4/5 throughout his carrer. When he shot (which was rare) it looked pretty good. Pair him with GH and maybe Memo or another guard who can shoot outside and that could open up for slashing or midrange shots. His length and hops could hampter both shooters and drive to the basket guys just like Ak did in the past. Im pretty much hopeing for a breakout year from all the sophmores. I really dont think we are as shallow at 3 as it might look. Milsap can play the 3, evens, hayward and cj. We could go really crazy and go memo, al and favors could play the 3. Thats it, Im changing my mind. Favors should start at 3.
 
Jazz don't have a traditional 3 - no ****.

What's he going to admit next? One free throw made = one point?
