Don't hate Da Playa hate Da game!!!!

"Don't hate Da Playa hate Da game!!!!"

....frankly, I reserved the right to hate BOTH! The player, because of his disgracefully disfigured jailhouse tat body AND his disrespect for the game of basketball in that he has turned what was once a beautifully played "team" sport into a "me first" "I don't need no help from nobody on my team because I'm the MAN" selfishly played individual sport as well as there disgraceful off the court conduct and behavior! And I hate the game because "the powers to be" failed to take action years ago to stop the emphasis on the individual and twisted the rules to "reward" the individual player rather than the team concept! (I.E. "palming the ball, traveling, crab walk or hop, etc. etc. etc!) I'm sure one of the older posters could probably express my thoughts in a more eloquent manner.....and would encourage you to do so!

99% of the game is on the players. They've known these systems since their first freshman game on. Marvin, for example, has played little four in his career yet he stepped in and seamlessly played this role quite well. (Playing small ball with Marvin at the 4 when Favors and Kanter are working rather horribly together is one more example of Corbin's willingness to adapt. I.E. Marvin can set the initiating screen out of HORNS and then leak out for the three if they force baseline and fight over the top).


The reason Corbin was originally hired as HC was because he did such an excellent job scouting opponents with Scott Layden. He knows how to game plan very well but has never had enough talent to impose his will onto the other team. He's always counter punching.


Corbin is a terrific X's and O's coach but might not have that special magic that great coaches need.

I don't think you can say that just yet. As far as I know he has a great rapport with the management as well as the players and that's the kind of coach that I think when it is all said and done would be able to get the most out of the players. He's someone the players want to play for and that's very hard to do in today's "me first" NBA.

Alright Y'all here's the thing........

I've been doing a bit of contemplating lately and this is how it is.....

We all need to stop hatin' on Ty.....

The dude has obviously been following the game plan laid out by the FO!!!!

The past two years strategy-

1. Play the vets get them their numbers and hope to flip them for assets in a trade

2. Play the young guys just enough keep their league value low allow us to sign them for less

This year's strategy-

1. Play the young guys big minutes given them the opportunity to shine but produce many losses giving us a chance at a potential superstar

2. Play the vets enough minutes to show their value and flip them at trade deadline

Soooo...... Don't hate Da Playa hate Da game!!!!

Well said, Zulu, well said. You are pretty much right on.
 
I just read on Salt City Hoops that the shots the Jazz take are close to league-average in terms of good shots (corner 3s, lay-ups, etc.) vs bad shots (long 2s and 3s, etc.), but are teh worst at converting the good shots. That's on the players to convert, but still does't provide evidence that Corbin is doing better than average on offense. Defensively, we seem to still be a sieve.

Corbin seems basically competent, but I haven't seen anything that makes me think he is a good coach.
 
Half of the people in this thread that are gushing over Corbin were calling for his nuts not even a month ago. You people are bi-sexual.

Corbin is the BeanDowns of the NBA.
