Same old issues

I know that this is only the first game of the season but I see the same problems that I saw last year.

Jefferson is a black hole. If you watched this game then you know that this has got to stop. He is a ball stopper on offense and he is an open door on defense.

Harris cannot run the offense. I really like Harris, but he is not built for this type of offense. Fisher blew by him more than once, and one time tis too many.

Bell plays too many minutes. Bell looks improved but he still seems to hesitate when it is time to take a shot.

I know that these three things are not all of the issues but they are the same issues when the Jazz had a historically bad finish to last season. If we are going to get blown out at least get the rookies more playing time. It can't be any worse than the product that we are watching currently.
 
On a side note, I liked the fact that Millsap came off the bench. That was the only real bright spot in this game. He will excel in that role.
 
Good post. Which is precisely why we should go into full rebuild mode and start stocking draft picks.

This team just doesn't fit together
 
They just need to cut there losses and call it a rebuilding. Bell, Howard, Harris, Watson, tinsley have got to go for.draft picks and young pieces. Then run a rotation of Burks, Hayward, millsap, favors, Jefferson bench of miles, Evans, kanter. All get playing time and we might actually have a player or two developed into an All-star. This is the perfect season to really go out and fully rebuild.

You left out Miles' constantly clanking shots off the rim..

You almost have the idea. Keep Watson around and throw Jefferson out of town even if it means you get nothing in return. I still feel like Jefferson is the root of the issue on the team. I hear great thing about him but I never see great things from him.
 
I'm sure that this has been mentioned elsewhere but I hate that TNT didn't go to the Jazz game during the timeouts for the Heat/Celtics game and then they had to have a little break after that game was over.More than half of the first quarter was over by that time. Basically it pisses me off that the Jazz looked good for those first few minutes and I missed all of it.

I was somewhat impressed with kanter. Missed some easy ones, but played with intensity every minute.

I agree about the intensity. He will learn to better position himself to score easy buckets but he gets after every rebound that he possibly can. Kanter will be a double double machine soon enough.
