What an absolutely disgraceful "performance". They should all hang their heads. I'm slipping down the same path as HammerDunk with Al Jefferson. His touch and athleticism aren't what I thought. Sure, he has an arsenal of moves down low, but it seems he'd rather cop out with the quick jump-hook. His "bunnies" so often result in nothing. Plus, his defense is, at best, spasmodic. I'm convinced he doesn't "think" the game well, which doesn't fit Jerry Sloan basketball. It's becoming evident that he might've had something to do with all of those losing teams in past seasons.
What is also clear is that if Deron isn't up to carrying the starters, while getting ample help from our so far mostly outstanding bench, then a win is out of the question. Fortunately for us, that's what he's been doing, putting himself in the premature MVP discussion.
