I think he will continue to have struggles and his adjustment period will take a while and be frustrating..... but i think he is talented enough that he will get there eventually and everyone will be happy with his contract.

The only problem with screamers, especially at the pro level, is eventually the players will just tune you out....or choke you out (see PJ Carlesimo).

QS will have to pick his spots. Last night was a perfect one.

We have no way of knowing how he is in practice or in the locker room. However, in previous games, he's seemed to be pretty calm on the sidelines. I think he took his shot and it worked.

I heard on the radio yesterday, locke was saying that snyder made them practice for around 3 hours on monday because they were running a drill called "perfects" that they run a set very slowly and every little thing has to be perfect.
Locke said that he was laying into them pretty hard.

Locke also alluded to the idea that snyder had them practicing hard and for a long time on the day before a game may give them tired legs and hurt thier chances of winning the actual game..... The refreshing thing was that locke believes that quin understands that this is a marathon, rather than a sprint, and that snyder would rather sacrifice an actual loss on his teams record if it means that his team doesn't take shortcuts and learns what he is teaching.
I love that approach.......... not worrying so much about wins and losses and instead focusing on developing his team. (i like that approach for the time being anyways)

I also like that quin didn't make any subs right after yelling at his players last night........ he left them in there to learn and work through the struggles, which they did (rudy was on the court during that explosion from quin and ended up a +23 for the game)

So I didn't check Jazzfanz last night, but I guess we are in love with Trey again? Cool.

I want to thank Jazzfanz for preparing me for teenage daughters.

I advise you to watch the games and form your own opinions
 
I just had a chance to watch the game. I hate to be a downer, but that's about as unimpressive as a double-digit win can get. I know there are some gaudy rebounding numbers, but we are still rebounding miserably. OKC is just flat-out terrible, and we allowed them to dictate to us most of the game (we really only had about 15-18 minutes of good basketball).

Ok, a silver lining: Kanter and Trey have been better.

Also, Q is a badass.

I think most people are more excited about the response than the result. The team responded well to a bad situation, which bodes well for when they inevitably find themselves in future bad situations.

Most of the game? The Jazz dominated the game after Snyder's tantrum, which was midway in the 2nd quarter. Just flat out dominated the game.
 
I was at this game(Jr. Jazz, nosebleeds). I was surprised at how empty it was in there. Having gotten off to a better start this year and having a top 5 pick I thought we would start to see a little better attendance. Hopefully this means that there will be good deals on lower bowl tix again this year.


luckily I missed the 1st quarter.
