Just a horrible thread on every imaginable level. Everyone who is realistic about this hapless team's chances are POUTY LOSERS? Your terrible post reminds me of people spouting of similar excuses over the course of the last two seasons: "Oh, give them time, they are still young." "Oh, wait until they get healthy, then they'll be a force to be reckoned with." "Oh, they just need time to gel, at which point we will dominate." Open your freaking eyes and stop being such a clueless homer. I can't believe you are still resorting to the same old ******** excuses even after this club's recent ineptitude. Terrible, terrible thread. I would neg rep you, but your other posts seem to be not this utterly dumb. So I will not.

Wow, that was a bit mean. It even hurt my feelings. Stuff like that cuts to the bone. :D
 
What this team needs right now is to remember who they are, not settle for who they have become. It sounds entirely counter-intuitive, but I would love to see them come home to a crowd that is with them through thick and thin--not fairweather fans. It will never happen, but an upbeat and energetic crowd certainly could not hurt this team right now.

I've actually been thinking and hoping that come Wednesday vs the Spurs, the team/fans are pumped from a victory in LA that they forget about all of these ******** losses. That's what needs to happen. They're dwelling on mistakes and not working towards improving. These first quarter starts have been brutal, and is one of the biggest factors in the losses, digging themselves a hole. Focus, determination and a little bit of work will get them out of this slump and back into the running. We've all seen what the Jazz CAN do this season, now they need to show us again.
 
Bottom line is that the Jazz are a mediocre team this year. The hope is that they can continue playing .500 or above basketball so they can make the playoffs, but we are likely not going to make any noise. Time to shake things up.[/QUOTE]

They are not a mediocre team! I have seen them be very good, the players aren't playing as hard or as well as they did earlier in the year. Milsap is struggling and playing like a pansy even Ak was much better than now, remember when he could hit a jumper, D-Will's #'s are down as well. Remember how how good the deffense was at the start. I don't know if they are slumping or just not interested in playing hard or what ever. What I'm trying to say is this is a talented team.
 
Yes, this stretch is like watching yourself be kicked in the junk - but I guarantee they turn it around. No major moves will be made. Guaranteed. Now, where's my Jameson
 
I'm frustrated with the losses for sure. Heck I'm frustrated when the summer league team loses! But, we aren't the only team in the league to go through a losing streak, Miami has gone through a couple, Dallas had a horrible stretch, LA has lost a few in a row. We aren't the only ones. The Jazz need to dig themselves out of this stretch by not feeling sorry for themselves anymore and complaining all game long and just play. Play hard, leave it all out there on the floor, and then see what happens. Right now it's self-pity and laziness that is getting them in trouble in the W/L category.
 
Jefferson had 19 pts, 13 rebs, and 3 blks today. He's the anchor of our offense right now and the center of the defense's attention. He's actually more effective than Boozer. It's just that we don't have athletic wings like Brewer and Matthews to put the other team off balance and take some pressure off DWill and Al Jeff like we used. We have a bunch of spot-up players who need to be perfectly set up to be effective.

Nothing is wrong with having some optimism, but being blindly optimistic and criticizing those who hate the way the team continues to play is wrong. I always have optimism with the team, but they have just had their asses handed to them by two of the worst teams in the league, and then were steamrolled by a really good Boston team, exposing them as the pretenders they have been. They have been mediocre at home and are leveling off on the road. Their slow starts, which were overcome earlier, are now really hurting them and all we hear is that there is no plan to change the starting lineup. There are grumbles that players still don't know the offense.

I haven't been a Sloan basher for about 20 years, but right now I keep waiting for him to do something, anything, that shows that he is trying to fix this. Instead, he runs out the same lineup, the same substitutions and expects different results. The only time anything changes is when there is an injury. This only increases my frustration because I don't see any reason that Hayward should have gone back to the end of the bench after his 2-3 game stint when given minutes. He was productive and showed that he was starting to understand what they were doing. Instead, he goes back to watch Miles shoot the ball almost every time he touches it, or Raja Bell have zero impact on offense.

Then there is Al Jefferson. I was excited when I heard the Jazz acquired him for next to nothing and had visions of him being our Gasol, the guy that other teams bitch about because he didn't cost the Jazz anything. Instead, he has become our Zach Randolph, a guy who has no concept of what it takes to win in the NBA but can pad a statsheet, except Randolph gets rebounds and sometimes shows toughness. I will admit that I didn't spend much time watching Al Jefferson play in Boston or Minnesota, but I can now understand why his teams sucked. He needs to figure out how to adapt to the Jazz offense rather than stopping the Jazz offense and he needs to figure it out now.

Until that happens, I will just sit with the other pouty losers and watch this team spiral down the tubes.
