Oh how I miss Stockton and Malon

You know John and Karl were not perfect but I will never ever underestimate their reliability. You know they both played much sicker and more injured than Memo, Kiri, Korver, Miles, Boozer, Price and Williams.
The only person who has possibly been close to Stock and Karl is harpring and he has missed a ton with serious injury.

Karl and John I wish they were back.

Good Luck Fes

This will give Fes a another chance to show his stuff!
Hope he has a great game!

Super For Fess

Take the minutes Fess and continue to learn and all the while improve your conditioning. Watch the fouls big guy and play some quality minutes!

Great

Hopefully he can play more minutes than he has fouls this time.

After the Spurs game hopefully people realize how much trouble we would be in if we had to rely on raw guys like fess.

He was in foul trouble all night and could not stay on the floor.

He played 11 minutes.

Most starters sit out more than that amount of time--he could not play more than that.

Lets all bash Boozer!

Come on its so much fun!

Fez may get in shape

if he keeps starting.

Chuck Nunn

Fesenko played 11 minutes, sure, but the Spurs only had three baskets inside while he was in there. Three layups in about a quarter of play? I think even Coach Sloan would have to agree that's a pretty good defensive effort. Also, the Jazz were a net +5 with him on the floor. He's shown a definite ability to pass out of the post, and while he's not getting a lot of rebounds right now, he's blocking his man off the boards and allowing teammates to reap the rewards statistically. Fewer minutes isn't the answer here. A little more trust could be.

Peace out from the Jazz Oracle!

amen

pass the potatoes

re Chuck Nunn

why are you the Jazz Oracle?

Your post is full of foolishness. Fesenko embarrassed me against the Spurs, he looked like a rookie all over again.

He makes one pass out of the post and you say "he shows an ability to pass out of the post" Give me a break, he looks completely lost at the top of the key with the ball in his hands (I'd rather see Collins up there!)

re;re Chuck

you are the only fool here. Collins ? common man find better one. Fes he is still learning. With given minutes he will only better . Actually he is good.
