What weaknesses do the Jazz have?

The same mood he was in when Kevin Garnett destroyed him.

PG situation: Mo is question mark for me. I was sure Harris was gonna leave but not really expecting Mo coming. He's gotta change his play type in jazz organization and really wondering his assist numbers with turnover ratio.
The coaching: I really did not like his coaching this year even though playoffs were surprising for me. Bad rotation, limited offensive sets, no creativity and for me not qualified assistant coaches
The youngster's situation: Except Favors, it's unknown situation for Burks, Kanter and Hayward. Is hayward gonna be 2 or 3? Burks will get enough min to improve after new comers? Kanter still be behaved like rookie and mentioned as Reggie Evans type guy?
The outside shooting: yea some guys came for solving this problem but none of the guys as Marvin, Burks, Hayward are consistent 3 point shooters. Mo is ok and Foye's min gotta be fixed so spacing can be again an issue for the team.
The offense based on Al: I am sure we are gonna keep playing Al too much again and that is gonna destroy the up tempo and decrease the efficiency of Marvin, Mo.

I like him, and I want him to win, but Coach Corbin has got to show that he is his own man and not little Jerry. Include the 3-pt shot, make ingame adjustments, call some plays for the young guys and let them play through some mistakes.
If he struggled with Bell who was not playing Mo could eat him alive. Better be on top of it right now. What happens when Al gets benched and Favors plays? What happens when Al plays 38 and Favors is pissed? Will he have the courage to sit Hayward and tell managment too bad about the Jersey sales? Too many good players and not enough great ones can be tuff to handle. The good roster with multiple options combined with a young coach is a weakness.
Also, Greg Miller needs a strong season without a gaffe. No twitter jabs at Karl, no weaksause call to your star player an hour after ESPN reported he was traded, and no groveling to a coach who walked out on you. Time to step up. Greg also needs to decide if he wants to build around youth and experinece the painful difficulties that brings, or continue to stirve for 6-10 spot in the west every year by playing flawed veterans. He's tried to have it both ways for nearly 2 seasons. It makes KOC and Ty's jobs harder and its a weakness that must be confronted.
KOC has shown that he can assemble a bunch of good players and nice assetts. Will he have the courage to turn those good guys and assetss into an ego manic star? 'cause unless you're getting Duncan or Nash all the 'stars' are messed up, and the NBA is a star driven league.

Coaching: subbing, team defense and a warrior mentality go hand in hand with this
Aging, unimpressive pg's
One consistently dependable wing who can bring it, especially in the clutch
Al's defense

I was wonderign where the AK plug would come in...glad you didn't disappoint.
Most of the things that come to mind have already been said. I'll bring up something that Borat mentioned in one of the other threads (possibly the Foye one?). The Jazz now have a case of quantity over quality in terms of having a lot of good players but not enough very good-great players. That goes hand-in-hand with the youth factor though, and I think the Jazz will have several great players just a few years from now. I don't agree with the rest of what Borat was saying in that post because he was still being mad about the D Will trade, but I thought the quantity over quality point was valid.

Yep. I wonder if someone like Boston would ever bite on Mo, Marvin and Al for Rondo. Would you do that? I know I would.
Edit: Yes, I realize salaries don't even close to come within CBA guidelines.

we are one of the deepest teams in the league and our second unit has a chance to dominate... btw, watson and jefferson or millsap have to go... there are too many talented players to distribute minutes.
