Our biggest weakness

Passing.

We lead the league (by far) in passes and yet we're dead last in the Western Conference in assists. I think that's pretty telling.

We want to be the Spurs but we just don't have the personnel to be them. Ironically the Dubs do. Bogut and Green up front are elite passing big men. And we know Curry is and Thompson as well. Are Favors and Gobert ever going to have a lot of games with 4-5 assists per night? I love these guys but ultimately is our ceiling going to be severely limited because they just don't have innate passing instincts? Because for me personally, true passing isn't really something you can teach.

Discuss.

It's up there. I can't count the number of "what's with the lazy ****ing passing" whines that I yell each game.

I disagree somewhat that they lack passing instincts. Granted, elite passing is something that's just there, but their problem is far more just lazy passing than they lack the skill to make half the passes that result in turnovers.
 
it just takes us 5 million passes until we decide to put up a shot. i'm all for unselfish play, but i'm starting to get sick of watching them swing the ball around the key mundanely until there's 5 on the shot clock, only to huck up a contested shot.
 
^^^ and dont even get me started on that weird staggered inbound play. They nearly walk their routes, completely uninterested in creating any pace or opportunity, all to do what? get the ball to the center who is immediately immobilized while just coming milliseconds from a 5sec violation --- every single time. can someone enlighten me on that play? When your team isn't doing a ton of winning you start to pay (maybe too much) attention to stupid crap like that.
 
Gonna go ahead and state the most obvious thing and say the Jazz are just not that talented.
 
Biggest problem is lazy players that do not improve there body in offseason. This team is weak mentally and physically. Only players who are real men is Booker and maybe Gobert. Hayward is the softest max contract in NBA. You think Lebron is letting Delonte wet willy anything but his mommy?

We are a young team. The passing will develop. Malone didn't come in as a great passer and we know how he turned out good

Thank you thank you.

Could be, but I am quietly optimistic. We have 3 keepers in Fav, Hay, and Rudy. Trey is getting better, but does not mesh that well with the team: does he ever get an assist to Hay? Hood could be a nice piece. If he turns into a 3 and D guy and we add another, could be interesting with good PG play. And Exum could be the guy.
