    The team with no Harden on the floor was down by 3 and then up by 7 when he was on the bench...

    Once he got in they were down by 10..

    This team does not practice. They pretend to practice just like they pretend to play nba basketball.

    This team needs to learn how to fight through screens.

    It's both. Don't give these coaches a pass. They do a horrible job of preparing the team for games. They have no offensive or defensive gameplan. They can't even draw up a play to get a shot off late in close games(look at the end of the Magic, Pelicans, and Hawks losses).

    Howard shoots about 80% across the middle...he needs to do it all the time

    When Harden is bricking everything on his ISO's and not even trying on defense, I don't think there's a more toxic player in the league...

    True. Adelman did an amazing job that season given the hand he was dealt. He did an even better job the following year with T-Mac's injury and then losing Yao and Deke in the playoffs. Good God, Morey was here during those seasons. Does he really not see the value in great coaching?

    I'm 100% convinced the idiots on the sidelines instruct this team to switch.

    Half Time Report...

    Jazz on 17-2 run...
    No adjustments. (Ended on a 17-5 run to finish 2nd Qtr)

    Going small giving up offensive rebounds...no adjustments.
    9 offensive rebounds give up.

    No offensive plays...

    No defensive rotations...

    This is all on our coach, Pat Beverley went in for an easy lay up, Jazz coach immediately calls a time out.

    Makes adjustment, Utah close on 17-5 run.

    During that run Bickerstaff stood there with his hands in his pockets.

    Jazz are overplaying on Harden, refs are not giving him any calls, are very late on whistles too.

    Bev has grown offensively, taken a step backwards defensively.

    Brewer playing well, as is Ariza - both more open than usual due to Jazz concentrating on Harden & Howard.

    Howard is a beast...getting shoved, hacked & pushed with no calls - yet run into him & fall, he gets called.

    T.J. Playing like his voice.

    Capela still no shots?

    Terry good veteran presence, will make a great coach one day.

    TL;DR:

    We getting our butts handed to us by a depleted Utah team...should win, but it depends on our effort.

    when you see Ariza trying to desperately create a shot consistently moving like an Octopus you know it's bad
