We dont run pick and rolls often anymore either. Boozer and Memo never want to set solid classic screens. They always want the soft screen and early release.
Teams have really figured out that is what they like to do, and now Deron can never get free to do anything about it.

No. No it doesn't. Not at all. You're hereby banned from using the word "statistically" in any future posts...

The Jazz actually lost on a buzzer-beater against the Bulls in a regualar season game last year, on a similar play where the Jazz were unable to secure the defensive rebound leading to a Larry Hughes game-winning jumper. I think what this shows is that the Jazz are a soft team when it counts.

If I remember correctly, CJ Miles was just out of position or else he would have gotten the rebound. The Jazz need to toughen up mentally to avoid those kind of mistakes.

Good point, actually providing some kind of reference as opposed to Prole, "No it isn't," statistically speaking.
