The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

I don't understand why you guys give Hardy the benefit of the doubt with these young guys. Sometimes the coach is just a dumbass and that might be the case with Hardy. This is the same guy last year that didn't like NAW even though he was clearly our best perimeter defender and was showing signs of being a great glue that every team needs. It would sure be nice to have NAW's perimeter defense right now rather than the train wreck that we are watching. I don't think it is a very good sign as a coach when basically every young guy has regressed from the previous season and to top it off he forces strange rotations that make the game more difficult for everyone.
Brother NAW currently has shooting splits that make THT look like Ray Allen (and that's on a loaded team where good shots are actually generated for him)
 
Taylor is clearly not ready. So going to G league for development is the best way to give him a chance. After the question of trading at 9 for a not ready guy is another issue.....
 
Watching hendricks g-league game he’s a bit slow, looks very long and can block. Maybe play him some nba minutes? We’re the worst defensive team anyways

What gleague game are you watching?
 
I don’t think it’s a bad thing that rookies get sent to the G-League. But both Brice and Taylor were both guys who I thought could play early. I certainly didn’t have them as “hell no” in terms of their readiness. Ultimately it doesn’t mean much, most rookie players are very bad anyways. But I’m a notch lower on both since the draft.

The reality is that the gleague is good to keep guys in shape but there is just no substitute for these guys getting meaningful nba minutes as well. If thing really get out of control over the next month then you have to expect the front office to demand that Hardy find rotation minutes for Taylor and Brice like they did last year with Ochai.
 
Geez SGA made only 1 three pointer and scored 43 points. Dont see that very often these days.
 
Caught part of the OKC/Cle game. Donovan is putting up numbers but he just looks a little bit "checked out" to me. Maybe it's my imagination but I don't think so. The Cavs are playing pretty bad. Garland is a turnover machine. If given the choice I would take Chet over Mobley.

Turns out the grass is the exact same ****ing colour and consistency on the neighbour's side, as well. Who'd have thunk it?
