I love the Jazz i really do, but I have to say These last 10 Games haven't even been a pleasure to watch. The last two games i have chosen things over watching the game. one n of those being shopping with my wife..... so yeah that should tell ya. What has changed? Wheres the intensity? Who is this soft gobert? Why cant hood handle real defense now that other teams plan for him?

Again I love my Jazz! i just cant watch them right now.... anyone else feel the same?.
Thanks,

I've been saying this all season. While I love to see them win, I'd rather see something developing with this team. I hate our sets. It is boring to watch. I hate the basic sets we run, that essentially do nothing. We do get open 3s from draw and kicks, but that is about it. Some of my favorite seasons were when we had losing seasons. We won 26 games in 2004 and I loved watching. We won 41 games 2005, and it was one of my favorite seasons ever. I love watching the "underdog" teams achieve something special, and do better than they were supposed to because the play as a team and buy into a concept. It is great thing to watch.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I believe we are significantly underachieving. We definitely have holes in our roster, but the amount of talent we have on this team should be netting us more victories. We have great players at 2,3,4 and 5. Our PG play is average. Overall, I believe we are much more talented than our record.

I'm such a die hard Jazz fan that I literally haven't missed a game since league pass became available (except for games in ATL a long time two years in a row that were not broadcast for some damn reason). Some may have been DVR'd, but I watched them all. I've watched every game this season, but I haven't enjoyed it. Sadly, as much as I disliked what Corbin was doing, his teams sets were more enjoyable to watch on offense.

Last night was the first game where I stopped watching part way through. I'm slowly getting to the point where I may start skipping games.
 
when ballstreams died a few weeks ago, my reaction was "meh". they are boring, bad, and frustrating. and yet i have watched 90% of the games. this is stupid.
 
I find myself turning the game off for entire quarters. I can just tell when they are going into self-destruction mode.
 
They seem to be playing in slo-mo half the time, and I don't know why. Maybe because of our PG. It's so frustrating.
 
I agree we are underachievers. I had high hopes and I see glimpses. I fear we are going to be this way for many years to come. Wish washy jazz teams of the late 2015s.. thats how these teams will be remembered. and its Sad too. i want my kids to remember the jazz zthe way i did and had growing up. A team on the brink of greatness with some of the best! sadly my kids will end up being golden state fans and i will have to sacrifice them to the nba gods in prayer that the jazz will get better and that I can be blessed with good seed that will be jazz fans....
 
When they are 28th in points per position and 29th in turnovers leading to points (over the last month), they aren't fun to watch.

Confirmed.

Well, I've only seen half the games. ;) On that note, I'm glad we didn't pay for, or go through the trouble of trying to find a local LP workaround this year after we ditched cable. Lately it's barely been worth watching online for free with bad quality. Good thing Ballstreams went under because we might have actually paid for that.
