"tried to acquire no free agents in the off season"

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

Good job Wesley | 8:21 a.m. Nov. 5, 2009
Wesley understand this you are the beneficiary of a new Sloan. One who is now not afraid of inserting rookies. Thank Deron and group for your playing minutes.

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.

Don't trade dwill. He wants to be an all star.
RE: Trade Sloan | 9:04 a.m. Nov. 5, 2009
since when can you trade a coach??? Am I missing something? Also who is O'Donnell? When you learn more about the Jazz then you can make a comment.
Sloan | 10:24 a.m. Nov. 5, 2009
Sloan wants his guys to guard players more.

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.
Mathews Should Get Time! | 10:25 a.m. Nov. 5, 2009
I saw Matthews take his man OFF THE DRIBBLE from the 3 point line and get to the basket AFTER the Dallas defense was set up!

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!!
Wes .... | 10:58 a.m. Nov. 5, 2009
Wes Mathis is the Best 2gaurd 3swing on this roster! Wait and See!!!
Wes Mathis | 12:51 p.m. Nov. 5, 2009
Is the best 3 we have seen since Adrian Dantley. He is a Real Man's 3. Not a little skrawny 3. He can take it off the dribble to the hole & he can take a hit without turning upside down.
@Anoymous | 1:23 p.m. Nov. 5, 2009
Matthews deserves playing time. He's quick, smart and seems to read the game unfolding and responds. I like him, he's a good addition while Korver and Miles are rehabing their injuries.
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!!!

I have never seen such a sorry group comments in my life. Odonnel, Wes Mathis, trade the coach? Do us all a favor and watch some games for about 20 years then come post something. B in PHX>
Re: Comments | 4:10 p.m. Nov. 5, 2009
It sounds like this guy thinks it funny to call people by the wrong names. He's been on here for a while now.
rvalens2 | 5:06 p.m. Nov. 5, 2009
I agree ... if you can't spell coaches, players and management's names right you must not be much of a fan.

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)
@rvalens2 | 6:08 p.m. Nov. 5, 2009
ha ha that was funny. I don't think kevin O deserves to have his name spelled right! ha ha
O' Conlin | 6:11 p.m. Nov. 5, 2009
Now there is a GM that is earning his paycheck!
O' Conner's Pass | 6:15 p.m. Nov. 5, 2009
He passed on trading Boozer.
the Mailman | 8:13 p.m. Nov. 5, 2009
Matthews could score 100 points a night for the next month but ol Sloan there would still banish him to the bench when CJ and Korver return, and thats the truth.

Jerry, the by product of a long, long, long gone era.
