Watching the garbage time, Sensabough looked more lost of defense than I've ever see an NBA player be. I don't think he was in anything like a proper defensive position at any point.

I hate saying this, but this team desperately needs someone like Mike Conley

Also, while I don't miss Vando because he was so incredibly limited offensively, at least that was one guy in the starting lineup who had a passing mindset. Right now there's nobody.

Did Hardy do a post-game interview and what did he say?

I'd say Ainge has already done many decisions for him. And not in a good way.

Ya it was pretty messed for ainge to get rid of Rudy Gay.

He said the transition defense was the issue, that our PGs didn't play selfishly, but just made the wrong reads.

That's what I remember

That, and to not give his head coach a starting point guard who's able to resist the temptation to hoist stepback 3's with 18 in the shot clock.

Now, League Pass skipped the final 6 minutes of the first for me, but I did not see a stepback three with 18 seconds on the clock. THT went 2/4 from three, I remember at least one miss from the corner, I thought the other one was as well.

It's just game 1 but if this season heads down the wrong path I'm ok basically starting from scratch with the young kids (Walker, Key, Ochai, Hendricks, Sensabaugh) and Lauri but one of those guys unfortunately might not fit the timeline of the others.

What can we get for Lauri?

Hope Hardy doesn't pull a Sloan with Keyonte.

what would that mean? sorry, i legit don't know.

We looked confused on offense. They were just passing the ball around the horn until someone jacked it up. If we are going to be this disorganized, why not start Keyonte and let him develop into a PG. I don't need to have the Jazz win every game, but I want them to be fun to watch...this wasn't fun except for the THT pass between his legs to no one behind him.
