Do you realize how retarded you sound comparing Favors-Kanter to Gasol-Randolph?

Do you realize how retarded you sound not showing any logic? Just name calling?

Fans like you need to watch basketball more and stop looking at stats.
I am not comparing their games as if they are the same in talent level or abilities.

Just because you make a comparison of PART of someones game doesn't mean they are equal in all areas
Fans like you are annoying as ****. Everyone I listed are rigid players. Meaning not super mobile or agile laterally.
That is the comparison. Read what I actual right and don't just call names because you can't say anything of substance.

I am not usually one to point out obvious spelling/grammatical issues but when you state that someone is an idiot you may want to use "you're" rather than "your". The irony...

I only focus on grammar that effects the actually message of what is being said. Anything outside of that is a subjective rule.
When your using YOUR in either message the listener or reader knows what is being said. So it doesn't effect the actual communication.

I can make up a rule to. There are different types of shooting. Like shooting a gun and shooting a basketball. 1 can be dangerous and 1 is a game.
So we must change shoot to shoote so we know the difference between using a gun and a basketball.

We need to lobby Webster because it will save the children.......

Never implied that using the proper word would save the children, perhaps it will hasten their retardation. No need to get defensive I was simply pointing out the irony of you stating someone was an idiot while using the incorrect word.

Also your "rule" makes no sense, shooting is the same word used two different ways; you're and your is not.

No need to get defensive. Since mine was only a joke too ;)

You're and your could also be the same word used in 2 different ways. The only reason you don't is because you were told this is how it is done.

"affects"
If you affect the message, you have effected a change.


<core4 ducking for cover. If you shoot at me, please use a basketball. Still hurts, but I can live with the bruise>

That is the fear. However, most of the time when a GM Is brought in, he's given the green light to do things his way. Right from the start, Lindsey was pretty vocal in saying shortcuts had been taken in the rebuild, etc. Lindsey won the battle to have the team let the veterans go and to make the GS trade. I think the organization is committed to Dennis and his vision for the future.

Lindsey has no loyalties to Ty. And he set a PUBLIC bar against which Corbin would be measured. I think that was pretty unusual to announce it to the media. Lindsey has set up a definite way to let Corbin go. The fact they didn't extend Ty says a lot. It's an easy way out to just announce that Ty has decided to pursue other options. Looks better on his resume that he wasn't fired; looks good for the Jazz organization to say they don't fire coaches. I've said it before, but it wouldn't surprise me one bit to see Brad Jones be the next head coach. Dennis brought him over from SA. He was very well-liked and respected in the Spurs' organization. He's won a D-League championship. He has more coaching experience than Hornacek had. Lowe and Sanders were Corbin's selections, but I always got the feeling Jones was forced upon Ty. Oh yeah, he's also Sloan's nephew.

Or maybe Alex Jensen ;-)

Did he underperform your expectations or something? I don't know/care enough about his playoff adjustments to judge him either way. You have my ear though.

I think he relies on bad numbers and "feel" too much. He played Gay to his weaknesses and not his strengths. He's good at defense, for sure, but not game-changingly so. Never had a good offensive team, from what I'm aware of, relying too much on isolation play (good thing Gasol is such a good passer).

Agreed. At this point who even cares anymore.

But my fear is he'll be back next year. It logically doesn't make sense with better coaches out there, but this organization can by loyal to a fault. And I say this as someone who appreciates loyalty.

It's not like the Jazz to let a coach go this long without a contract extension though. I feel that it's a good sign that we have not even heard talk of an extension this late into the season.

Just because he wants to work the ball into the paint does not mean he wants the offense to stop when it gets there.

The problem is that Favors and Kanter currently are absolutely horrific interior passers at this point in time that the offense will do nothing but stop whenever the ball goes in the post.

Well then they need to be taught it. And that is the coaches job.

Lead a horse to water...


Think about it. How many times have you seen Kanter get the ball in the high post on the 1-4 UCLA cut and as soon as the weak side big flashes to deny the man trying to rub off the screen (usually Hayward or Burke) he panics and waits for the strong side wing to come to him to set a pass off pick? So many options off that UCLA cut and Kanter REFUSES to do anything other than the easy, easy pass to the wing if it's there (rarely) and will never pass to a baseline cut option, so they took that out of the offense. Kanter's only good on garbage plays, pick and pop, and non-doubled post iso. He can't pass (yet). They've tried, failed, and put him only in situations where he can make a positive impact offensively, which right now, is Alfense.
