2 wins against good sides since Kanter has been moved on. They'll miss his rebounding, especially on the offensive end, but running much better with Gobert as the main man in the middle.

More Rudy is certainly a great thing. Not sure Favors is better than Kanter though.

[/QUOTE]
I was just checking to see what Clark had done and noticed this guy. Some huge numbers. Points, boards, assists, turnovers. Only 6'8". 24 years old. Looks like maybe he's trying to develop into a stretch 4. With Jerrett around not sure where this guy fits. They obviously need a back-up center.
[QUOTE]Boston leaned more and more on super-tiny units tonight, and the Jazz had no answer. Jae Crowder went for 18 points as Utah was consistently unable to stick with him on pick-and-rolls, not much of a surprise given a notable quickness advantage over guys like Favors and Trevor Booker. The Jazz didn’t play bad defense by any stretch, but seemed to be a bit more confused and yield a few more good looks than they typically have in their recent stifling stretch of defense. There were several notable occasions where Jazz players lost their men coming back down the court and gave up easy baskets on mismatches, and though some of this is just plain brain-fart, some may also be due to a bit of confusion because of a difference from their normal style of matchup.
The larger worry by far, though, was on the other end of the floor. If the Jazz are going to stay big when teams downsize against them, they absolutely must be able to win the battle down low convincingly and get enough easy baskets to make teams think twice about trying to space them out. Utah did win the points in the paint battle tonight, but it was by only four points (36-32), and there wasn’t enough emphasis on getting the bigs, particularly Derrick Favors, involved. Despite having Crowder or a similar mismatch on him nearly the entire game, Favors attempted just 10 shots (he made seven, unsurprisingly), four of which were in the fourth quarter when the Jazz did seem to finally run the offense through him a bit more. Boston did a good job of denying him post entries at times, but this is in many ways the point; Utah needs to have answers for this stuff when the games start to really matter, and there have been several occasions this year versus smaller teams like this where they haven’t.
There’s plenty of time to iron this out, and the current roster certainly may change in the future in ways that could make this less of a concern.2 But Quin appears to have encountered his first major schematic challenge as Jazz coach, and it’ll be interesting to see how he and the team respond going forward.[/QUOTE]
With Rudy there is no reason you can't go smaller at the 4 with Maxi G, Hood and Ingles though technically they are all taller than Booker.
[QUOTE]2. Jazz show more of their patented resilience in the 4th quarter.
We’ve noted several times this year how this Jazz team has exponentially more fight in them than a couple recent years, and it was present tonight as well. On the road coming off a tough win Tuesday night in Memphis3, it would have been easy enough for them to give up down eight or nine points in the fourth. Instead, they fought for every possession as is their custom, and the result was a game they likely should have won on a gorgeous step-back from Gordon Hayward.
Favors was great down the stretch, and Hayward hit another big shot despite continuing to struggle both from the field and overall since the All-Star break. Trey Burke could have shown a bit more selectivity with his shots and also a bit more urgency given the deficit down the stretch, but he did a good job of at least forcing Boston’s defense to account for him and move around as the Jazz made their run. Even in a fairly ugly game with a few notable question marks, the Jazz displayed positive signs.
3. Analyzing a couple big decisions by Quin Snyder down the stretch.
Allow me the honor of second-guessing a coach who, by basically any notable measure, has done an incredible job for the Jazz this season. One area Quin has found himself grappling with has been imperfections on his roster, and some of this just comes with the territory. The small-ball issues discussed above are just this sort of struggle; given his personnel, there’s only so much Snyder can do when teams downsize against his big front line.
He’s an NBA rookie too, though, and the occasional question is certainly warranted. Tonight it’s the way the Jazz defended Isaiah Thomas, particularly in the second half when Boston’s new addition went for 19 points and three assists, willing the Celtics to the win virtually on his own. Again, this is a situation where there’s no perfect answer – Utah’s personnel simply doesn’t offer a sure-thing solution to a speedster like Thomas. But the decision to check Thomas with Rodney Hood and Joe Ingles (only a possession or two in the latter case) down the stretch seems curious, mostly because neither is much of a defender even at their own position. Neither had any chance whatsoever of keeping up with Thomas, and the Jazz even found themselves staring down a dreaded five-on-three on a couple occasions when Thomas split screens so quickly that both he and the roll man were ahead of Utah’s two corresponding defenders. Hiding a guy like Burke is standard, but if his replacements are getting beaten just as badly (they were), it makes more sense to stick to the original matchup and try more in the way of traps or well-placed double-teams.4 Dante Exum may have also been an option (Quin used him on Thomas for the final possession), though he was struggling badly for much of the game offensively. In any case, expect the answers to be more swift and more efficient next time around.
And then, of course, there’s that fateful final play. First things first: switching everything the way the Jazz did is absolutely the correct play in such a scenario, and this was an exemplary play call from Boston coach Brad Stevens with this knowledge in mind. Furthermore, as Quin noted postgame, Utah has consistently put length on the inbound passer in these situations this year, so going with Gobert on Marcus Smart on the sidelines isn’t the least bit out of character. And as our own Dan Clayton noted on Twitter, much of the harm here came when Rodney Hood was slow to recognize a switch, leaving Tyler Zeller just enough space to collect a perfect pass from Smart and lay it in for the win.
My only quibble here5 relates to the specific game context, particularly the clock and the personnel. With about 1.5 seconds left, even a giant like Gobert likely won’t be enough to drastically alter the potential shot – a good coach like Stevens has multiple inbounds drawn up without question, and even if Rudy forces a tough pass, there’s enough time for a dribble or two and a shot. Furthermore, it’s obvious that down one point and with time for just one attempt, a look closer to the hoop has to be a real possibility. Throw in the fact that Hood is a rookie who has missed a lot of time this year and isn’t known for his defensive prowess, plus the fact that a switch to a bigger guy is fully within the realm of possibility, and I think it’s very close indeed.
Basically, my own risk-reward calculus seems to favor allowing what would have only been a slightly easier inbound pass for Smart with Hood on him6 while retaining Gobert’s services down low. Gobert and Favors have far more experience switching with each other, and had been doing so with Boston’s small-ish lineups (like the one they had out to close) all game. Switches elsewhere mean that even if Hood allows an easy inbound pass on the perimeter, any jumper is going to be well-contested and have a very low probability rather than an inexperienced player being forced to switch onto a much bigger guy so close to the basket.
Again, it’s super close and the delay from Hood is likely the largest culprit in the end. If he makes the switch seamlessly, this is very possibly all a moot point. But given the specific context and the personnel on the floor for both teams, it seemed worthy of a second look and may do so again in the future in similar scenarios.
Ben Dowsett[/QUOTE]
Of course Snyder blamed Rudy. Got to have Rudy at the rim I'd think. He seems to agree. 2nd guessing the coaching has not usually turned out well in Utah where they value their coaches more than star players. And he almost blocked it anyway! :bowdown: [url]https://jazzfanatical.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/end-of-game.gif?w=400[/url]
[QUOTE]Despite finding answers at what looks like four of the five starting positions, the Jazz are in need of a starting shooting guard to complete the line-up.
The Utah Jazz are definitely getting better. They take steps forward, with steps backward. However, at this point, there are more steps forward than backward.
The hole in the roster appears larger due to the absence of fourth-year guard Alec Burks, sidelined with a season-ending shoulder injury. The Jazz hope Burks is able to fill the role, having signed him to a four-year, $40 million contract this past offseason, but questions remain about his fit.
For his career, Burks shoots 35 percent from the 3-point line, a respectable but unspectacular number. With the logjam created in the paint by Gobert and Favors, Burks’ ability to get into the lane and finish at the basket may be seriously impacted. While Hayward, Exum and Burke are willing 3-point shooters, none of the three are deadeye marksmen providing Burks the spacing needed to utilize his attacking style.
John Stockton and Karl Malone combined to create one of the NBA’s best duos, but neither could take the Jazz to the Finals prior to the arrival of Jeff Hornacek. Only when Hornacek added an elite long-distance shooter to the Jazz scoring punch were they able to make a run to the NBA’s championship round.
The Jazz find themselves in a similar situation now.
While the team has filled the shooting guard position piecemeal, starting Joe Ingles, Elijah Millsap and Rodney Hood, none of the three qualify as elite shooters at this point in their careers.[/QUOTE]
Burks was at 38% on 2.5 3 attempts a game this year. Better than anyone else on the team. Still not convinced he and Maxi G can start together though or if Burks is an NBA starter or great 6th man. They have to try to make it work with him as a starter after the contract they gave him. Hood is starting to look like a shooter too. Ingles and Millsap like most of the roster have to hit open 3's to play next year when they should be competing for the playoffs again finally. No more tanking and excuses.
[QUOTE]Unfortunately, two of the NBA’s best shooters have recently played for the Jazz in Wesley Matthews and Kyle Korver, but both have gone on to leave the team in free agency, only to find greener pastures with their new teams.
Of the NBA’s current top 20 3-point shooters, only former Jazzman DeMarre Carroll fits the Jazz needs by position, age and availability as an unrestricted free agent this offseason. Carroll’s willingness to return to Utah could be enhanced based on his relationship with current Jazz coach Quin Snyder who former worked with Carroll as an assistant in Atlanta. Though his relationship with the front office is in question, as they allowed him to walk away empty-handed once before.[/QUOTE]
Money talks. I'd love to have Demarre back! Would he be willing to come off the bench? Will they have money for him after they address the bigger needs they have at the 1 and back-up 5? If the Hawks do something this year they might keep their team together.
[QUOTE]Beyond bringing back old names, the Jazz's best option will be adding a shooter through the draft. With the Jazz's recent success, the team appears bound for a late lottery pick, somewhere between 10 and 14, with the NBA’s lottery system making it unlikely to move up in June’s draft. Duke’s Justise Winslow, Kansas’ Kelly Oubre, Michigan’s Caris LeVert and Kentucky’s Devin Booker all project as shooters in the NBA, though only Booker maintains a 3-point shooting percentage over 40 percent. LeVert is likely the most NBA ready, as the only player on the list who has played more than one season in college, but has battled multiple foot injuries that will certainly draw red flags from teams in the draft.[/QUOTE]
Not sure anyone in the draft is ready to be in the Jazz's rotation next year. I'd be looking to trade their picks. Maybe draft a young center if anything to develop not to play. A guy they should be looking for right now. Jazz have enough young guys everywhere else. Time to win games!
[QUOTE]No NBA team is perfect, and every team has a hole in its roster it could fill to create a more complete product, and this Jazz team is no different. The Jazz have found talented young players in the draft to build the roster that appears on the brink of a major break-out, but they’ll likely have to repeat the process once more this summer to complete a roster that is still in need of one major piece.
About the Author: Ben Anderson[/QUOTE]
It's in need of a major piece at pg. Exum might be that guy eventually but they can't wait around for him. The time is now. Brandon Knight would be the guy I'd go after in FA unless there is someone else available in a trade. Bring over Neto. Let him, Burke and Exum fight it out for the back-up job with maybe another proven vet in case none of them are ready. Exum still could earn some wing minutes. D-league for the losers. Tomic or Pleiss or Koufos at the 5. If Hood keeps doing what he's been doing since his return I might stay pat on the wing other than bringing in guys to compete with Ingles and Millsap for the end of the rotation/bench.

[QUOTE]Both sides are thriving with the trade; everybody’s happy. It’s been a win-win, at least so far.
Since the trade on Feb. 18 ...
The Jazz are 5-2 — easily their best stretch of the season — and Rudy Gobert, the Frenchman who moved into a full-time job with the departure of Kanter, is averaging 10.6 points and 13.3 rebounds. He’s making 59 percent of his shots from the field. C’est magnifique. As if to put an exclamation point on the trade and the team’s vote of confidence, Gobert produced 15 points and 24 rebounds in a road win over Memphis this week. He has 40 rebounds in his last two games.[/QUOTE]
The question is what would they be doing if they'd traded Favors instead though.
[QUOTE]The Oklahoma City Thunder are 5-1 with Kanter in the lineup (he missed one game, a loss, with a thigh injury). Kanter is averaging 14.5 points and 9.3 rebounds since joining the Thunder. He’s shooting 57 percent from the field. In last Sunday’s win over the Lakers, he collected 16 points, 15 rebounds and five assists.
In Oklahoma City, they’re wondering what the Jazz were thinking when they traded this guy for relatively little in return. [/QUOTE]
They got potentially 4 players out of it. Too early to say they got little for an expiring contract.
[QUOTE]Fans are wondering the same thing in Utah. But given this recent turn of events, there’s this question: Is it possible that Dennis Lindsey knows what he’s doing after all?[/QUOTE]
Has a lot to prove yet.
[QUOTE]The trade has been a short-term success, but how will it play out for the Jazz long term (let’s face it, the Thunder can’t really lose in this deal)?[/QUOTE]
They could. Durant and Westbrook might both be gone when the Jazz cash in the picks.
[QUOTE]To recap: The Jazz sent Kanter — the No. 3 pick of the 2011 draft — and Steve Novak to Oklahoma City in exchange for Kendrick Perkins, Grant Jerrett, the rights to Tibor Pleiss, a first-round pick from the Thunder and a second-round pick from the Pistons.
On the face of it, the Jazz appear to be starting over again, just as they did when they onloaded Deron Williams. Kanter and Williams were both No. 3 picks in the NBA draft, six years apart. They are tied with Dominique Wilkins (No. 3 in 1982) as the second highest draft picks in team history, trailing only Darrell Griffith in 1980.[/QUOTE]
starting over? :no:
[QUOTE]In other words, the Jazz haven't had many lottery picks in the draft, and now they’ve traded away the last two (actually, they’ve traded every No. 3 pick they’ve ever made, but that’s ancient history). Here’s what the Jazz got for Kanter:
— Perkins, sort of. He never set foot in Utah. The Jazz bought out his contract and he signed with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and if you understand all of that then you must be an accountant. All Jazz fans need to know is this: HE AIN’T PLAYING FOR YOUR TEAM.
— Jerrett. The only statistic he has since joining the Jazz is three minutes of playing time.[/QUOTE]
Anyone expect him to play? He's a 21 year old D-leaguer with stretch 4 potential. Could be a player for them eventually.
[QUOTE]— Pleiss. He’s been passed around like a bad rumor. The Nets made the German the 31st pick of the draft — in 2010. The Nets traded his rights to the Hawks, who traded his rights to the Thunder, who traded his rights to the Jazz. Pleiss still hasn’t played in the NBA.[/QUOTE]
High 2nd rounder who the Thunder wanted on the team this year. Sounds like Rudy's potential back-up eventually to me.
[QUOTE]So for practical purposes, ignore the three players in the deal, which takes us to all that matters: First- and second-round draft picks[/QUOTE]
dumbass
[QUOTE] which takes us to all that matters: First- and second-round draft picks, which means more young players and waiting for them to develop.
The Jazz keep kicking the future of the team farther and farther down the road and urging patience from their fans. When they let go of Williams, Kyle Korver, Paul Millsap, Al Jefferson and now Kanter, they pretty much started over again. Who knew sports teams were like 401(k)s, and fans must wait for years before they‘re worth anything.
Or maybe the wait is shorter than we think, given the Jazz’s resurgence.

That is bullshit, I don't think anyone is offering Knight a market max. He should be happy if he gets 8/year and run with it.
He'll get more than that.
The Jazz did re-up point guard Bryce Cotton to another short deal.
Gobert and Noel each got slapped with a technical foul late in the fourth quarter for a brief, less-than-cordial interaction under the basket. The double techs were doled out after Noel swung on the rim a bit and Gobert swiped his arm at him after the play. Spur of the moment reaction? Or was that act of frustration building up throughout a physical game against a potential rival player?
[QUOTE=Xiao Yao You]He'll get more than that.[/QUOTE]
I forgot about the cap going up, so maybe you are right.
[QUOTE]The Jazz give up six points more per 100 possessions with Exum off the court than when he's out there, trying to lock down opposing guards. [/QUOTE]
Not sure that says a whole lot since Trey is so horrible on D.
[QUOTE]While he's struggled on some nights (a 22-point explosion from Lakers rookie point guard Jordan Clarkson comes to mind), Exum has also been able to disrupt plenty of opponents.
"He certainly looks a whole lot more confident and understands what Quin wants a lot more now than at the beginning of the season," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said after San Antonio lost last month in Utah.
A speedy point guard and a high lottery pick might be expected to try to prove his worth on the other end of the floor, but not Exum.
"It's not common," Snyder said. "Usually guys associate their value with offense, and I've been pretty adamant [that] that not be the case."
Surprisingly, most of Exum's troubles this year seem to come on offense, where he often looks timid with his drives and off-line with his jump shot, rather than as a defender.
Brown, the Sixers coach and the man who invited Exum to the Australian national team when he was 15, isn't surprised.
"I feel for him, with his body and the fact that he [did not play last year while preparing for the draft], the easiest thing for him to focus on would be defense," Brown said.
The coach said he believes Exum's offense will follow.
"It doesn't surprise me what he's done," Brown said. "I applaud Quin for giving him the ball and playing him. They've really, at times, taken some hits. We all do with young guys. But the dividends that I think they're going to see in him, given the pain I'm sure they're experiencing giving a young player the ball this year, I think it will end up being worth it."
Snyder also sees the potential for Exum to become a better offensive player

Alright let's see how he does playing Jazz basketball.
Another gross 1/11 game from Burke. Favors should have had 40 against Bargs though. Had 20 in the first half and only 9 in the second. Lucky Ingles got hot in the 4th, had 8 of his 12 points in aboht a 2 minute period late in the game.
Yeah typical Trey game. A lot of Favors work was against Amundsen who had no chance against him. They definitely should have got Favors the ball more. Ingles looked good looking to shoot for a change. Hood is starting to look like a legitmate rotation player.

Well, we
[QUOTE]Two foreign players whose rights the Jazz own are not likely to help, in regard to dusting bombs. Ante Tomic can score, but he's not a traditional deep threat. "He's really a great passer for his size and position," Perrin said. "He helps our team more that way as a scorer." And Raul Neto is not a gifted shooter. "He's more of a true point guard, a guy who tries to help his teammates get great shots rather than him getting his own good shot."[/QUOTE]
Neto is going to have to be able to hit open 3s like the rest of team. But with Burke and Exum in the low 30's not sure how good he has to be. Tomic also has a post game with both hands and can face up as well.
[url]http://www.deseretnews.com/top/3118/0/Utah-Jazz-international-How-Tomic-Pleiss-and-Neto-are-doing-in-Europe.html[/url]
Pleiss hits free throws.
Gobert is destroying the rockets. 14 points and 18 rebounds at the half.
Good job keeping Harden to 3-13 and the entire team to 22% from 3pts. Burke was 0-8, which makes his FG% 35% over his last 10 games. Hood was 8-16 today, if he keeps that up Burke is going to find himself sitting more than playing. Ingles was solid again from 3 hitting 2-4 as well and Favors and Gobert putting up 4 blocks each is a bonus too.
Jazz had a 5 game home run of the Knicks, Houston, Detroit, Charlotte and Washington and this was probably the hardest one to win, so they could find themselves edging closer to .500 if they can win the rest.
Trey was only 37 % on the year so he's just doing what he's done the past two seasons.
Hood has looked like a legitimate rotation player since he came back. Hopefully his foot problems are behind him. They'll have to consider starting him next year.
Washington will be tough. Detroit might be too.
[QUOTE]Rudy was amazing. He had 18 rebounds in the first half. He is the 5thplayerdo that in the first half of game since 1980. The Jazz completely dominated the offensive glass and Gobert had 12 offensive rebounds. The jazz ended with 17 offensive rebounds.[/QUOTE]
The 18 and his first quarter double double hadn't been done this season. He'll be breaking all the Jazz rebounding records.
