Off with their heads!!!
What?
I was teasin someone about giving people gruff for stating their observations and thought. Pretty simple...
I fell into same delusion couple of times when watchin pre-season games cause their beards looks alike and they both got a head like a ****ing orange.
To me, a lot of it seemed to be entirely based off box score reading from people who didn't watch the game. That's what I was criticizing.

"Watching people try and draw meanin[ful] inferences from preseason games is funny." = "Off with their heads!!!"?
Have you started that thread about a guys wife yet?
You misunderstand, that's for Beantown to do. You know, his old-hat, 'nothing to see here' move?
Kanter really needs to learn how to pass when posting up. He's the only guy who has the potential to be a decent first option on this team. But not without much better passing.
If Hayward is taking 15+ shots a night, he might not even crack 40% from the field this season. I really hope he's just adapting to his new role. And I don't know if it's just me, but his layups always look awkward. It feels like they are never going in. He had a reverse layup attempt yesterday that wasn't even close. Kinda reminds me of AK.
I'll be surprised if Favors is not top 3 in rebounding this year. He was better offensively last night. He should keep improving his passing, score when open, on putbacks and out of the pick and roll. Corbin should stop trying to post him up. Having Trey back will help him. Or bringing Tinsley back. I have no idea why the Jazz haven't brought him back yet. Lucas, Hudson and Machado are not good enough PGs.
I'm a bit down on Burks. He's reminding me of CJ. He has some good moments and I keep expecting him to finally take the next step, but sometimes it just seems like it won't happen. Hope I'm wrong on this one as it is still too early. But I'm not as excited about him as I once was.
I really expect the Jazz to suck hard for the first one or two months of the season. After players get more comfortable in their new roles and we get Marvin, Rush and Trey back, I think we'll be close to a .500 team.

IE burks: looks like a mother chuckin cj when playing with holliday, cook, biedrins, macguire and the rest of the scrubs.
Play him with hayward, favors, kanter (like it should be) and he looks pretty good..... rebounding, getting assists, playing good defense, and picking his spots on offense.
When he is playing with a bunch of ****birds he chucks.... when playing with other actual nba players he looks pretty good.
So the solution would be to start him imo.... plus it seems that the starters could use some more scoring..... and the bench is gonna suck whether burks is part of the bench or not, so might as well start him and give him some confidence along with a chance to succeed
I think that is becasue he knows the bench needs to score and he is the only real option.
