I have a strange curiosity about whether THT can become a viable player and what Lauri looks like as a #1 option. But otherwise, there's nothing to get excited about.
Clarkson and Beasley are going to chuck, but won't have favorable spacing to do it. The Jazz are going to rely on guys like Olynyk, NAW and THT to pretend they're on-ball creators, and it's not going to work.
The new court with the diagonal wood paneling is nice though.
I just hope this new coach hardy dude give them young players a lot of playing time. Or at least two quarters of playing time. That's all I ask for... we ain't making the playoffs so quit playing the veterans a lot.
Exciting as season begin. As allways. Will follow Jazz and Grizz. That's the good point when you love 2 teams, you almost have one good. And will look at Rudy at Minny as well.
I'm curious to see if we play with heart or just go through the motions. We'll learn a lot about the new coach whether he develops the young guys or just relies on the veterans.
Mostly I'd like to see some joy from the players again.
Yep since TIVO/DVR became a thing I have yet to miss a Jazz game. I still watch most games live but when I can't I watch it later that night or next day if I'm out of town and can't watch on my laptop. that won't change this season either.
Yes there is a shift, from winning to other things like, player development and coaching development with a new HC. I know for me watching preseason it became more real that I no longer recognize how the Jazz want to play to be able to tell if they are executing it well or poorly. So learning how Hardy wants to coach will be another thing and even then that can't say for sure with the season and personnel wont be about winning games. So evaluating Hardy will not be easy as he'd have to be a really bad coach to take any negative things because I plan and understand he will need to go through growing pains and no better season than this season to go through those.
One thing my blood pressure will be much better watching games, and the feelings of my TV wont be hurt neerly as much by me hurling insults at it.
