What's new

Who is the choice at SG?

Bell starting 70+ games and us making it to the playoffs also means that hell has frozen over and pigs have learned to fly.

Well the world is supposed to end this year so if hell is going to freeze and pigs are going to fly now is the time to do it.
 
Anyone who says Burks isn't a good defender is stupid. He is a rookie playing his first few games in the NBA. It's a whole different game than in college, he has to get the pace of the game down. He made 2 steals in 9 minutes even though it was against scrubs, he still has a lot of potential to be a solid defender. If you give him minutes, his defense will improve. I haven't seen many rookies come into the NBA and be lock down defenders...
 
Why not start Howard at the 3 and let Hayward play the 2? Hayward has played some of his best games at the 2.

Because I think the Jazz management don't see Hayward as a future 2, they want him to play SF. I think it makes more sense given Burks' potential.

I agree. He is really quick and gets in the passing lanes (he is 7th in steals among rookies/game with minute minutes). He was right up in Mathew's face in the preseason. He was laying off of Fernandez a little bit too much off of the ball, and he has too learn the rotations a bit better and not be intimidated with big name players. I have good vibes about his d though. Don't let me down Burks!
 
Deleted because every schmoe on this board has already made the same joke about this post that I did.

Ahh ****; two swings and two misses for me today (when we talk into account the 0-2 start thread). I admit, the jokes are rather hilarious though
