What's new

Utah Jazz AT the Charlotte Kittens on ROOT Sports 1280 AM/ 97.5 FM when? 5:00

With Mo out how can anyone complain about Foye getting minutes as long as Burks and Hayward are still getting minutes? Who would you rather have out there Tinsley, Watson or Carroll? Granted it was only for garbage minutes but you saw what happened when Burks worked with Carroll and Murphy, he needs another guard out there that can help so that can run a two guard front and him not running a single PG front.

But yes everything bad last night was clearly on Corbin and anything good was in spite of him... carry on with that.
 
I can't tell if this is sarcasm. Watching the game last night, Foye came into the game in the fourth and promptly gave Gordon two wide open jumpers that he made because he opted to go under the screen. It's easy to not get hung up on screens if you never try to fight through them. He then got lost on a switch and gave Gordon an open lane to the basket for a layup that he missed. He gave up 5 points to Gordon in two and a half minutes.

It probably should have been. I trying to put my son to sleep as I watched the game and missed those shots in the 4th by Gordon over Foye. Now that I don't trust my memory of the game, I guess Foye probably didn't play good D in the first half either.

Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike Foye at all, and I think he has a place on the team at the moment. Probably in a lessened role to only take advantage of his one quantifiable nba skill, shooting; but, to suggest he does a better job moving on defense than Hayward or even Burks, is just not accurate. To be fair, Gordon was lighting everyone up in the fourth, because he was hot.
 
Man I was getting so mad at Al. I agree that he can move his feet on D. He just gives up and it pisses me off.

I still hold to the theory that he is just really slow mentally. Not dumb, but just takes him an extra second or two to process stuff on the court.

And yeah, I actually only watched the 4th quarter for the Mavs game (on League Pass) because I had work that night.
