Now that the NBA is forcing the Jazz to play certain players, the excuse of being tired on the second game of a back to back is once again in effect so let's see if the Jazz can pull off the L at home.

You know the Jazz are tanking when Kessler takes 6 threes.

You know the Jazz are tanking when Kessler takes 5 threes but he had a great move where he shot-faked a 3, put the ball on the floor, dribbled between his legs, made a spin move and scored. This is the good part of a development season, you get to give players more freedom to show what they can and can't do. As someone who has been frustrated with Kessler's lack of offensive game, I hope Hardy lets him do more of this kind of stuff until the end of the season, like we've seen in the last two games.

And now this has become a stupid thread started on the GB by the guy who specializes in stupid threads. He has more luck finding people there to cry with him about the tanking travesty of the evil Utah Jazz.
This isn't a big deal to me. Utah was thinking of trading him because he wanted to shoot more threes instead of playing the way the coaching staff wanted. As long as we are trying to lose anyway, may as well try to keep him happy.

Exactly. He wanted to play this way (I supported it) and now he has to show that he can. Obviously, I wouldn't want him to shoot 6 threes a game but it wouldn't be the end of the world if he takes one or two each game if he's wide open when the time comes for the Jazz to be good. And I definitely want to see him try to score and create more inside the paint instead of only being fed open layups and dunks. I definitely want to see him expand his offensive game.
I couldn't find the thread on the GB board though. Nevermind, found it.
