Utah Jazz notebook: Matthews gets playing time, Maynor not so lucky

The new Sloan is also not afraid to try new rotations, whereas the old one had Stockton and Malone and spectators if necessary. Sometimes now we have Okur, Millsap and Boozer on the court at the same time, keep it up Jerry.
Wesley keep on playing hard and do not be afraid to show the otjher teams your good stuff. Harder faster makes you better in the NBA.
Congrats on two good games for a rookie.
Fans want Sloan to maybe make some defensive changes when his guys are getting lit up. Jer- you had 29 4th quarter points by Dirk to make some adjustments defensively. What were you waiting for? Poor effort by the head coach.
When was the last time you saw Korver do that? Never. Just sits on the perimeter and launches threes at league average %.
When was the last time Brewer did that? Never. He gets all his baskets at the rim on fast breaks and back cuts when his defender turns his head.
I also saw Matthews post his man up and SCORE.
I also saw him MAKE a deep perimeter shot.
That is right...all in one night Matthews hit from the perimeter, posted up, and scored off the dribble!
NOW THAT IS SOMEONE THAT HAS TO BE DEFENDED (and eventually possibly even double teamed on occasion)
Brewer? Korver? CJ?
Never happens.
Matthews will be inconsistent and he will make some bonehead plays but he is already demonstrating skills on occasion that the three sissies above still can't do on a good day. Theyre all, thus far, one trick ponies and their trick is too inconsistent to fulfill the biggest role their team needs...MAKE DEFENSES DEFEND YOU IN MORE THAN ONE ASPECT!!
GO JAZZ!!!
Coach should put Kosta Koufous in to guard Dallas' Novitsky, I think he could do it. He's tall and smart.
GO JAZZ!!!
But O'Donnell?
Get it right it's O'Connell ... er O'Donner ... you know that guy that's always making the wrong decisions!
Sloyne
:O)
Jerry, the by product of a long, long, long gone era.

Unfortunately, we were all reminded again..
No Jerry, actually let Dirk get the ball where he likes it.
Spacing: Again Sloan talks about getting up on shooters, how much room did DWIL give Kidd?
Guess What: You will have one challenge tonight. The Spurs are only shooting 34 percent on 3s, and couple guys slumping in this area such as Mason.
Still there are at least 4 guys capable of knocking down 3s at least, Bonner, Mason, Hill, Finley
Again we will see what "Jer" does to prepare for a likely 3 point shooting feast
