Playing time

Gobert is being benched because the Jazz spread the floor better without him, and he hasn't established a post game. It's not always about marginal talent. The young Jazz players need to be able to run an offense in order to learn how to play.

Y'all bitch when the offense looks like **** (blame it on Corbin), and y'all bitch when Marvin and Jefferson hold it together (blame it on Corbin). Y'all bitch when Evans DNPs (blame it on Corbin), and y'all bitch when he takes 26 minutes from Gobert (blame it on Corbin).

Most important thing for Gobert is getting better through practice let him earn his minutes by good practice habbits for later in the year. Right now he should consentrate on getting better in practice and shoot tons of ft's after practice and get his reps in with the mailman.

Burks does suck. To be honest, I haven't had time to watch games for a week or two. But info think that Jefferson sucks too. I just don't know if he sucks as bad as burks. Marvin is playing well right now, and from what I have seen is even playing a team concept kind of ball, not just contract year stuff. He seems to be the one that deserves minutes on this team, and the rest is just a crap shoot on who should play.

It's not even a comparison at this point. I'd call up Josh Howard from the D-League over Alec Burks. I'd trade him for CJ Miles. There's a reason he sat behind those types of players his entire career.

But Jefferson doesn't disrupt the offense like Burke does and makes a lot less mistakes.

Damn. It has gotten to this point with Brandon Roy jr. Huh? Like I said, I haven't watched games for a couple weeks, and at that point, he was just starting his **** stain playing days. He must just not be a smart kid. The athleticism is there.
 
I get that people like gobert, but in what world is he ready to play more than about ten to fifteen minutes in an nba game? We play four on five on offense with him. Sure he can rebound and block some shots, but he is still picking up the whole team concept on offense and defense. I love gobert, but he needs lots of practice and film time.

Don't know about the others but Trey had foul truble. Two fouls in the first 5 minutes of the game, and had to sit the rest of the first quarter. If not for foul trouble Burke ends up playing over 30 minutes.

Favors had some good offense, but he really played like **** on defense. I'd like to see him get benched a game or two to send a message. 4 rebounds no blocks, and little to no help defense = him quitting. He was extremely lazy last night on defense, and that's suppose to be his strength.

Kanter just came back from a sprained ankle.

Why the hell does Burks deserve minutes, plus 24 minutes for a bench player is good.

You can't just play these guys thirty+ minutes a game when playing like **** or they will develop losing habbits and not progress messages and lessons by restricting minutes must happen. Discipline is the best way to get guys to wake up and play the right way. Do you honestly think these guys have earned the right to be playing that many minutes, playing as ****y as they are?

Okay so what has Lucas done to earn his minutes? And what did Garrett do (except outplay Lucas) to get benched? Don't try and rationalize rotations with Corbin. It can't be done. He's just an idiot who pulls rotations out of his *** for no reason.

I wouldn't say it's gotten this bad, he's always been this bad. He can't shoot and he can't create anything for his teammates. When he gets the ball the offense has nothing but bad options: chuck up a miss, drive spastically and hope to make a wild shot, or hold the ball and reset with the usual result being a poorly set up side pick and roll.

The kid is fine as a 9th-10th player on the bench. He has improved though and I'd rather focus on that.
 
I've said it for 3 years. And I still can't see it being false. Corbin is the worst coach in the league. Hell I used to think Mike Brown was worse. I'm not so sure any more.

I agree with you on Lucas, I'd rather see Garrett get the minutes, but as far as The minutes Lucas got, it was only 16 and would've been 9-10 minutes had Burke not picked up two quick fouls. So I'll live with it

But agree, would rather see Garret.
