These Jazz Practices Are Making Me Excited.

Did anyone catch Randy Rigby on 1280? Said something about Quin riding the rookie Dante very hard today. Said he stopped practice, saying," we showed you what to do and you are still doing it wrong so now you are going to have to run. " then Quin asked which of his teammates were going to run with Dante.

I didn't get to hear, did anyone run with Dante or did he run alone?

I like it.

I'm suspicious of anyone who isn't worried about how we're going to score, consistently. Shooting is going to be problem this year.

No need to be suspicious of me bro.... I'm not hiding anything.

I do think Hayward, trey, and hood are all good shooters though.

heh.
Hood hasn't proven anything. And Hayward, Trey, and Alec haven't proven anything about consistency. The opposite, actually.

Ya, I dont put Alec in the group of good shooters..... and though the others have not proven it, I have blind, unfounded faith that trey, gordon, and hood nukka rod will all shoot the three ball well
 
Relative to the rest of the league, offense will be a problem and will create many problems on defense, just like last year. I hope it is much improved, though, and there's certainly lots of room to do so.

Just my opinion, but I agree with the fixed size dude.

The focus on "pace" is awesome. But, when I look at Trey and Enes, I see two guys who will struggle to make an impact within that concept. Booker and Exum better get ready.

I wonder if we'll see much of Alec and Gordon at the 1 and 2? "Pace" plays right into their strengths.

What makes you think it would be a problem for Enes? I think he gets down the floor pretty well and is well conditioned.

I think Enes can be a good enough pace guy. Trying to beat dudes down the floor and get good position or to spot up, he just needs to be focused. I don't think it will be about playing Alec and G-time at the 1 & 2, but more about heading up the floor if they get a rebound, or quick advancement of the ball. Jazz were awful at that last season. Seemed like every rebound Favors got he would wait for Burke to come find the ball while everyone else was already on the other end of the floor. I think Quin will stress passing ahead and having guys like Hayward and Alec grab boards and start the break. Hopefully Burke can figure out how to throw the ball ahead. Tinsley was slow as **** (at least, when he played for Utah), but he understood this concept and was great at passing ahead to dudes like Hayward and Alec
