So.... our defense is awful. "Slow Mo" Joe Ingles is losing Stauskas easily on screens. Jason Thompson is playing defense with his hands.

EDIT: Derrick Williams has evidently been having some conversations with Marcus "Contract Month" Thornton.

EDIT2: Nik Stauskas is so scared to shoot. It's disturbing.

Jazz got a good looking core

Bens handles/playmaking much improved from last season, but the decision making needs to mature

We sure do like throwing passes that aren't there.

Cousins is really good.

im not sure Nik likes the sauce thing, strikes me as a player as a rookie who does better without increased attention on him

Cousins is frustrated with everyone. From the refs to his own teammates. If this keeps up, he will be out of the game. The refs won't tolerate this any longer.

The refs should throw Cousins' team mates out.

This Sauce Castillo Night is just terrible.

Cousins is ultra-competitive and sometimes that can become a good thing and a bad thing. The moment when he can channel his ultra-competitiveness into positive play majority of the times, he will be even more unstoppable than he already is.

Refs are terrible.

It's sad watching almost every single player in this draft outplay our own Nik "the bust" Stauskas, reminds me when we picked Jimmer

It's also similar in the way that the other players seem to actually have a chance to play, whereas Jimmer and Nik both kind of get/got scraps from game to game and when they don't start hot they get the yank.

A few tough calls there in the 4th for the Kings, I do think that when players complain about every call it makes it tough for the refs to take a player seriously when that player has a legitimate complaint.

The complaints from the players should be cut down but it is part of the game though. That shouldn't deter refs to conveniently look the other way when a legit foul happens.

Since Jimmer has been lighting up the league since he left and all

Yep, that's what happens when you're one chance to play on a crappy team blows right past you at the expense of both parties. He wasn't the first, he won't be the last. I guess I just prefer the sink or swim method where you actually throw the person in the water first. Sure, he probably would have sunk, but at least you'd know for sure.
