Deron Deserves Better

D-Will was carrying this team and that's why we started off the way we did. Now he's pissed because the team doesn't run the offense as good as the previous teams did. It's not his fault the FO kept certain players and got rid of others. LHM wouldn't have paid CJ at that price. Deron doesn't control the FO, and you can't blame him if the FO caved to him.

Umm.... LHM was the one that OK'd matching CJ's contract with OKC. And LHM was the one that signed AK to that horrific contract.

But Deron needs to step up and be a leader and not a pouty whiny little bitch. He needs to take some responsibility.

I recall LHM being in the hospital that summer and Greg taking over the decisions. Didn't LHM say that he would not have matched, or something to the effect of it being ridiculous?
 
Deron 'Best Point gaurd in the League'? He wasn't even the best pg on his team or in the top 3 pgs in the game tonite.

Have you ever stopped to consider that part of the problem is Deron? 1-st off he's so pissy that Coach sloan has to let him call all the plays. Stockton in his 18th year still looked to Sloan for the play. Deron ought to give the reigns back to Sloan.

2nd--ty Corbin said after the Washington game that the some players on the team are not patient enough with the offense or there teamates and after a couple of seconds or trips down the floor they try to break down their man one on one. Who does that? Well the anouncers in the Washington game speculated that Deron was getting paid by the dribble that day because he wouldn't give it up.

Finally look at how he treats his coach and his teamates: going all the way back to the Who's Coach Sloan comments, but this year throwing a ball at a teamates head and cussing him out on the home floor? Telling the reporter your PF/C isn't smart enough to learn the plays and doesn't play hard?

Last year the jazz were falling apart on a eastcoast road swing, but turned the season around aftergetting blown out in boston. The next game the team beat Philly then played Clevland to the end without Deron. The team gelled, they played hard and went on to win 9 of 11. I don't think it coincidence that the team came together while Deron was gone. He's a terriffic talent, but its clear he doesn't work well with others.

You know what, I think I am wrong. Greg had already taken over the ownership. LHM thought it was paying too much at first, but then conceded that it was probably for the best.
 
DWill is destroying this franchise.

The dwill hate is ridiculous... without dwill we'd be skating down around the pistons level...
Get a grip. He's a stud. He had a foul plagued game. He dominates so heartily and regularly that when plays like a mortal for one game he is hailed a loser.

Be rational come on...

22 and 9.5 with a team full of under achievers is pretty ridiculous.
 
Just saying that he needs to be part of the solution and show some leadership, have some accountability. He hasnt exactly been playing so hot himself in our struggles.

Well said. I know D-Will cab be an usually is a great player. Maybe our starting 4 are mediocre, But I have stopped enjoying watching Deron play. I would rather watch Watson play and lose than see Deron play with his bad attitude. I feel like he has decided this team can't win a championship so he doesn't want to play with anyone on the team. If this is all we get from Deron then I am ready to see him walk. The Jazz will be more fun to watch without him, even if they lose.

Deron played like an MVP during the first quarter of the season. But it seems like he has given up over these last 10 games. I am actually excited to see him go to the bench early with 2 fouls because he isn't fun to watch anymore.
 
Deron is not blameless. I would expand on this theme, but Pearl said it already and better than I could ever hope to.
 
... and so do we, the fans. This has been the most lazy week of Utah Jazz basketball I have ever seen. Does anyone not named Deron give a damn?

Wherever Deron goes after his stint with the Jazz, I will become a fan of. I will not tolerate being a fan of a lazy basketball team.

Yeah, Deron deserves so much better after the awesome effort he put forth tonight.
