Game #39 Jazz at Pistons 5:30 Mtn.



No, nothing beyond what you guys saw. I was in the cheap seats, center court, upper tier.

That's ridiculous. Now why would Ty ask where Matt gets his haircut?
Ty is bald and Matt has dreamy hair. This clipboard makes no sense.
 
Other than bringing Watson in for Burks for some inane reason, I was impressed with Ty's adjustments in this game.
 
The ball movement, and passing is light years ahead when Earl is out of the game.

He's done! Especially on the road, where he seems to wilt under the pressure.
He's better at home.
 
No, bs, but there was a stretch when we made a run when we were down 12, from about the 8 minutes mark in the third, to about the 10 minute mark in the 4th, where Al was litteraly having his way and dominating with ease.

In that 10 minute stretch, Al didn't miss a shot and he scored 14 points. It was great to watch.


However, there were so many bad coaching decisions in the 4th that it almost cost us the game. Taking Favors out, Earl Watson in, taking Burks out, foye in for purely defensive possesions ext..... I was convinced that Corbin was gonna play Al the entire second half, it was crazy. If you think Al is bad playing defense, a tired Al is on a different level
 
Ugh. Jefferson and millsap still playing tons while our young guys ride the bench. Fantastic. When will we learn? I'm so tired of watching this team stay in mediocrity while wasting valuable playing time on one year rentals. Yay.
 
38-27: Earl dribbles two times and stops his dribble in the backcourt. Passes to Hayward out of desperation, who now has to rush to try and get it over the half court line. In his haste he has the ball stolen by Bynum, Knight scores (89-87)

Watched little of this game while watching the 49ers school the Packers. I did see the play above though. Earl panicked like the 3rd string junior high pg having to play in the championship game. That was just incredibly bad. And he seems to pick up his dribble a lot when it is not necessary.
 
All right, Jefferson is a better free throw shooter than Favors and they looked like they have started fouling to try to stay in the game. A stretch, maybe, but basketball decisions are never so clean cut. At least rarely so clean cut.

Al is such a bad help defender that it puts any lead and any game in danger. This is clean (clear) cut.
