It just seemed to me our regulars were getting scorched last night, so why not let the tyros have a shot? We've seen this picture before. The organization talks nice about the young players but no PT from the coach.

Tucker always seems to either try a deep 3 or go for a highlight dunk. I liked Brantley, hope he will get more time in next two games. Boler back in shape, couldn't tell the difference between those two.
Brantley is a legit triple-threat player--shoot, pass, drive. He can score in different ways and create for himself when plays break down. Morgan is very limited off the dribble.
Brantley has a 3-ball, step-backs, floaters and inside finishes with either hand. His problem is that he's been a bit passive on defense, and he turns it over too much when he's the primary ball handler. That shouldn't be a problem if they put him in a Georges Niang-type role.
I smell a winnig streak comingI’m gonna bet against us every single game. We don’t look good and don’t have the horses to hide what are major deficiencies imo.
Pretty much agree up until the last sentence.
I think the Jazz role for the 4 is to work outside in: has to be able to hit a 3 before being able to make use of other skills. Niang was a versatile, all-over-the-court threat in college, but until he solidified the 3-ball and proved he was a threat there first, he didn't fully fit the Jazz's scheme. In the Jazz's system, I don't think Brantley's 3-ball is ready to unlock his versatility yet.
