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.
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.
