no darko or pekovic? we should theoretically dominate in the paint. hopefully 3's don't kill us. again.

We NEED to keep loosing!!! Because it will help get that higher pick and maybe pressure the front office into trading some vets so we can play Kanter and Favors more. I prefer a Millsap trade, but who knows.
You would think that a Millsap, Harris, Howard, and a pick would bring in a great return. But thats just me...

I am starting to think you are right. I dont like players getting used to losing but its time for KOC to gut the over-rated veterans on this team.

When Sam Presti took over as GM for Seattle/OKC, the first thing he did was trade Ray Allen and Rashard Lewis (sign & trade). They were Seattle/OKC's best players at the time, but Seattle struggled to a 31-51 record the season before.

Trading them not only made room for Kevin Durant, it also meant the team finished high enough in the lottery to select Russell Westbrook. Imagine if OKC had re-signed Rashard Lewis and kept Ray Allen and fought for the 8th seed in 2007-2008? Where would they be now? No one in the NBA would trade Westbrook for Rashard Lewis and Ray Allen.

Now you'll say "but the Jazz don't have Kevin Durant" -- I know! Even more reason to blow this thing up the rest of the way!

A loss would be nice.

Winning while playing the young'uns 10 minutes each is absolutely pointless.

Yeah, i am fine with losing if the young guys are getting more minutes. Watching the vets lose on the other hand sucks.

6'8" Hayward is being guarded by Ridnour and the Jazz have gone to him just once in the post so far.

Coaching fail.

Jazz are a tough team to figure out. Howard at SF and Hayward at guard with Raja being 1st off the bench maybe way to. Why is Harris playing so good? Good to see.

I'm so done with Big Al Ball.

He has more field goal attempts (19) in this game than Favors and Kanter have minutes combined (18) and he's only made 7 of them.

I'm getting so tired of watching the starters piss away these games.

If Favors and Kanter get 10 more minutes each, this is a win.
