Say hello again to awful interior defense and being out-rebounded with the 1st unit. I agree with David Locke on this one in his opinion of Locke saying on his blog that he didn't think that the starting lineup was the problem, we lead for most of the first quarter in L.A. against the Lakers and was still in the game in Denver for most of the 1st and 2nd quarters.

Locke is a homer. So the big change is to bench Favors. WOW!!!! When are the Jazz going to realize that benching Bell is the player who should be benched.

Agreed! Either start Howard or Burks in his spot, instant upgrade. The front office needs to realize we as fans of this team are excited about the future of our franchise and the young players we have on this team need to be developed like OKC developed their young guns and now OKC has a very bright future. Sometimes we got to learn in order to take two steps forward as a franchise that we may have to take one step back and bite the bullet for a season or two to let these young players get more experience and not just garbage time because its not effective for their development to play against other teams 11th, 12th, and 13th players on their roster in garbage time when the game is already decided.
 
Still won't work. Jefferson is the one who needs to be benched not favors. Also bell and Harris are still in the starting line up. It's still going to be ugly.
 
Locke is brainless homer who has no clue about basketball. He must suck somebodies d... to have a job as basketball "expert"
 
Obviously Favors didn't stand there and watch Al Jefferson when he got the ball effectively enough for Ty. Hopefully Millsap does a better job at doing this...
 
Don't you guys think Favors will still get his minutes? Millsap's been playing a lot despite starting off the bench, and Favors sat out almost all the Lakers first half with foul trouble anyway. I don't really see the problem, as long as Favors keeps getting significant minutes.
 
Wow. I am really, really, really trying to not judge Ty Corbin as an imcompetent failure, but it is getting harder to hold off.

He so far just really strikes me as indecisive and unsure. Which is how the team is playing. Changing the starting line-up after 2 games? Really?
 
I actually think this is a good call. I think Favors will get more minutes, he can come in for either Al or Sap, and he can start to get his confidence. If Burk isn't ready to start, we should start CJ and bring Burk in as a backup. Bell should be used in garbage time, let's see if he can score 15 in half a quarter.
 
35 minutes. That's what Favors got to show his stuff, 17.5 mpg. I guess ya gotta say that Coach Ty gave him a real good shot huh? What's next, naming a new starting 5 after every quarter?
