Game #4 - Utah Jazz @ Memphis Grizzlies

The Jazz do not look like they know what they want to do on offense. Maybe if we lose a few more, it will force the front office to pull the trigger on a trade. There are only three outcomes with Big Al. We trade him, we resign him, or let him expire. To us it's a no brainer, but this is a tough decision for KOC and Dennis Lindsey.
 
just because said:
Oh and let me add my other 2 cents on Foye. I was all for trying him out at the expense of Burks but his chucking and lack of court vision puts him in the Al department if you ask me.

Its his defense that PO'd me tonight. That play where he watched his guy spin to the baseline was horrible.
 
I don't see the point in player complaints. This is the worst Jazz offense since the pre Deron era. We have no plan. We run convoluted cuts under the basket that never result in shots. When we drop the ball into the post, nobody on the perimeter moves. Guys just hoist shots when they want. And everybody hits the panic button when the shot clock gets to 10 which is more than enough time to make something happen. This is all on Ty.
 
By contrast, look at Memphis. They don't have a complicated offense to figure out. They run everything through the bigs. But when they do, their wings cut to the basket. I don't think I saw the Jazz cut to the basket 5 times tonight. Alternately, they drive pretty relentlessly because their other theory is the bigs will clean up misses. The irony is we could do this as well as they do. But Ty doesn't know what he wants to run, and seems content to let Mo, who has very average point guard skills, make a lot of stuff up as if he's some kind of elite talent.

Assist to the choir .. no coaching.
 
The second unit makes me cringe. That's when the break, which makes our first unit offensive numbers look much better, doesn't work. They have no idea who's going to score or how.
