Corbin has worried me today

[Stifle Tower]

Only Coach Corbin STARTS a SF who didn't even play any quality minutes on his last 2 teams.

Many followers of the Utah Jazz thought Tyrone Corbin would start Gordon Hayward at small forward and Alec Burks at shooting guard, however when the head coach put out his first unit on Tuesday one of those players was on the bench. That player was Burks as Corbin started Hayward at shooting guard and Richard Jefferson at small forward.

"We want to see Alec coming off the bench right now -- see if he gives us some punch off the bench," Corbin told The Salt Lake Tribune.

According to the newspaper, the starting lineup is not set for the regular season, however Corbin likes the idea of having Jefferson's experience as part of the group that also includes Derrick Favors, Enes Kanter and rookie Trey Burke.

Burks produced 14 points, four assists and three rebounds off the bench against Golden State and that is what Corbin wants from the shooting guard.

"I don’t know which way we may go with that yet. We’ll see. But he gives us punch off the bench because he can put the ball in the hole," said Corbin. "He can make things happen quickly."

I actually agree with Ty on this one. Alec will get more touches and shots coming off the bench. Also allows Hayward to play SG and puts RJ on the bigger wing defensively.

This I get. They have to see exactly what they have in biedrins. 13 minutes in a meaningless preseason game is the prefect place to find out.
