Corbin has worried me today

Jefferson looks good. I wouldn't hesitate to start him over that one dimensional chucking Alec "Nick Young" Burks.

Jefferson's a better shooter.
Smarter player.
Makes hard cuts and sets better screens.
Understands how to take advantage of mismatches.

Burks is fast and can drive wildly to the lane, yo.
 
Corbin is fully into the tank and keeping contracts affordable. Viva la draft picks.

Or he doesn't want to travel as much this year.

Obligatory post from Frank. Thanks for the lulz.
 
Former Warriors Jefferson and Biedrins — and Rush when he returns — might work into the mix more in the beginning stages of the season, Corbin hinted. Most of this Jazz squad is so raw, and these guys, even if past their primes, offer veteran know-how.

“They are the experienced guys,” Corbin said, “so we are going to have to rely on them a little bit earlier to make sure they help this young group grow.”

On top of that, Corbin has liked what he’s seen from the veterans in camp, and he’s been especially complimentary of Jefferson.



WHAT IS THAT TY?????

So you are worried that Biedrins and Jefferson will play over Jeremy Evans and the injured Marvin Williams? Doubt R Jeff is going to average more than 20 minutes a night, and there is no way in hell that Biedrins starts over Kanter or Favors, or even plays over them. Corbin would have a swift kick in the pants from DL if that were to happen.
 
Honestly, I see the starting lineup as Burke, Hayward, Jefferson, Kanter, Favors.

Also a wilcard lineup of Burks, Hayward, Jefferson, Kanter, Favors. That would be crazy.
 
Core 4 better start
 
Why people have assumed Jefferson and Biedrins will ride the pine is beyond me. It's like all of the sudden JazzFanz collectively decided we're headed for youth movement and assume that means Corbin is in line by only using worthless vets to fill in the cracks.
 
lulz Jefferson starting.

THE NIGHTMARE CONTINUES

Prep for 30-35 min a night for Jefferson. While Burks 28ish.

Given what I saw in the scrimmage, it's the right choice.

If Burks can't beat out Jefferson for more minutes, that'll be on Burks this year, not Corbin. Doubt Jefferson CAN play more than 25 this year anyway.

And what if burks CAN beat out jefferson for minutes but still plays less... who would that be on?
