Game 4: 11/3/2014 Jazz at Clippers. 8:30PM on ROOT

Our guys still look a touch hesitant/uncertain on offense. It is to be expected as they adjust to Quin's system. If these seem problems persist 15-20 games from now, then we'll have some issues....

Trey doesn't look much improved from last year does he? I thought after that preseason we might see a mini DWill like breakout.

Burke has 17 assists to 10 turnovers so far for all his games ..........how does that translate into good point guard play by Trey Burke ....and that's not even talking about his shooting

All season? Like these 3.5 games?

It's pretty admiral that your're the last person (who isn't Turkish) that refuses to read the writing on the wall.

Kanter just had a pretty good offensive game and was still a huge net negative.

does anybody else think that hood has to stop shooting these mid-range pull up jumpers? I get that he can do it, but he has not been hitting them, and its not a very high percentage shot overall. Should hood keep shooting these or try to focus on catching and shooting more in his first season?

I prefer attacking Alec to spot up 3 point shooting Alec.

In the long run this is good for Burks.

I disagree with everything you said. He can knock every shot he's taken this season down with regularity. Give him time to acclimate to the league.

do you know any other season that we dont

 

[Diamond77]

The perimeter defense is as scandalous as against Houston!

1 of those was because he was going for a 2-for-1 situation to end the quarter.

He's just a rookie, we're not going to see him start looking comfortable until the second half of the year.

Burke was looking so good in the preseason...

He's been playing well for the most part. The difference is his shot was falling in the preseason it hasn't so far in the regular season. He has made some really good passes in the young season guys just aren't finishing. And he had some defensives lapses this game, but what's killing Utah right now are the way the bigs are defending Paul in the PNR. Those soft hedges are leaving Burke in no mans land along with the bigs.
