one of my favorite self-confirming jazz fan myths of the year is that DMC is a good defender. he's actually not. there is a difference between being the energy-and-hustle guy and actually being a lockdown defender. he's definitely the former, not taking that away from him. but every time the jazz have asked DMC to be the latter, he's been lit up. his lateral movement isn't good so guys get away from him way too easily, and he has slow recognition when it comes to taking away angles.

i like DMC as a hustle guy playing spot minutes, but damn, this is so on the money. glad i'm not the only one in this camp.

Call me crazy but I still think Derrick Williams will be a player. Just not yet.

Maybe, but so far he looks slow, undersized for a 4 and too slow for a 3, and confused alot of the time.... plus he seems to play on a team that is easy to fit into
 
What bothers me is Favors' +/- of -2 over 16 minutes. And 0 rebounds for Millsap in almost half and hour?

Just saw that Favors dunk, it was nice.

I was at the game so was it the one were he dunked it 2 hands and was fouled on the elbow and so it should've been an and one and then immediately after someone on the Jazz got called for a very very ticky tack foul. Being at the game I might be blending different occurrences together, like when Love got a T my memory remembers boo'ing immensely that the next time down the court they called a weak shooting foul against Millsap and Love got FT's.

Guess I could look for the dunk on youtube or someone could just post it since it looked nice in person.
 
The Four were great in this game. Favors was BEASTING. So...why on earth did Corbin sub him out for Millsap in the 4th when we were up by 15? We had to be showcasing him for a potential trade partner.

It's not surprising that you identified what Harpring was saying as some sort of dig on AK instead of making excuses for him.

It was frustrating that Harpring was quiet about real reasons. I guess he can't do it on air.
You are well known AK hater so please explain why he got nice reception from Jazz fans during pregame introduction while Deron and Boozer got boos?

I don't live in Utah; but my understanding is AK was guy who gave a lot of time to local charities including his own. And he was sincere about it as well - which a lot of players are not.

I have to believe that counted for something.
