Do Not Sell My Personal Information

He may be overrated but he instituted a system where those guys had the freedom to let their talents show and he can call a hell of an ATO play.

I don't need Gregg Popovich here. I just need a guy who can execute when the game is on the line.

Ty Lue could barely get his dudes up to play for a game that wasn't important but Ty can draw up one HELL of an out of bounds play.

I believe JBB is doing enough, so much even, of the right things that matter in the big picture with this team, that he deserves the opportunity to build continuity and grow with the team. Not forever if we hit a point that we should be able to get past but can not, but at least for a few years.

I love when people talk about how great Quinn is. Yet Utah blew a 2-0 lead against the Clippers with a hobbled Kawhi for most of the series and Kawhi missing the last TWO games of the series.

There is not a Perfect coach. A lot of these guys who people laud as schematic geniuses or as premier talent developers(Quinn, Stevens, Atkinson) still have flaws that lead to their team blowing games, or not being up for games, or losing a series they should win.
 
Gonna go help my wife move some shit in the garage to take my anger out.

I’ll be back to discuss what JBB did wrong more calmly later

Fuck da Jazz

We are allowed to be good and criticize the coach. A couple different tweaks, adjustments, keeping a player in, actually drawing up a final play that works.. and maybe we win that game

Criticizing the coach or critiquing specific plays is totally fine.

Making premature generalizations that the coach is just a babysitter until we get a "real" coach to take over is demeaning and ignorant of so many right things that are being done and instilled by that coach.

I understand IBWT outbursts about that

Is JBB a playoff series winning coach to you?
 
Haha- I haven’t missed a game-life just got crazy and dealing with some health issues. I’ll try to chime in more! Hope everyone is well.

Just text him directly. He's probably not aware and could use the help understanding basketball.

I kid, I kid.

You understand and agree with that initial post?

I agree that there's going to be a successor to JBB and the Cavs will take off, just seems like it's going to happen that way

One of two things should have happened before that 17 seconds left play

We should have subbed in Love for Allen or Cedi for Allen to space the floor and put Utah in a position where even if Garland got to the rim, he would have had a wide open shooter he could kick to if Gobert collapsed

Allen served no purpose in that final play.

You could have subbed Mobley out as well and come back with Cedi, Love and Mark and forced Gobert to recover to one of them off the Garland or Rubio drive

Either way, a sub was needed there that at the very least took Allen off the floor

I was thinking that,,have your shooters out there..all they needed was a 2..Utah would have extended their D ,which would have opened up everything.

Interesting. Sounds like a lot of people already have their minds made up. I see the Cavs already taking off and if given the time for continuity and the couple of roster additions that will be made, I don't know why people are so naturally quick to assume to he's not a good enough coach. Certainly not perfect, none of them are.

Yeah. Literally the ONLY reason for Allen to be there was to battle for an offensive rebound. In theory. But there wasn't going to be time for a rebounding battle because it was always going to be a last second shot. So he was not only useless, he harmed the last play. Really bad call by JBB.

5 out was the only way to go. Just a painful blunder.
 
Open the Bucks thread! Anyone know if Giannis is playing?

We're gonna bounce back.

Confused at seeing the Garland hate on here. Dude carried us offensively.

I don't think anyone's hating on him, but he's not above criticism either. Darius had plenty of mental mistakes and bad turnovers again, and while he was sizzling offensively all game, he came up totally empty in the last possession.

I don't really understand why so many people seem to be ready to hand the whole team to Garland and hope for the best. That's a risky strategy. He may not be ready for such a role yet either, despite playing very well so far.
