I can't even talk right now, I am beyond pissed.
Re: Why does the Jazz own the Spurs so badly?
Boozer + AK: 57 and 21, 23/32
Can I puke?
Re: Why does the Jazz own the Spurs so badly?
Utah has the same team they had when we beat them in the 2007 playoffs and in years after that..the Spurs are just clearly significantly worse than we were since the last title..
Utah sweeping the season series from the Spurs tells me that this is the end of the line for the Spurs without a trade coming..not that it wasn't obvious to everybody else..
Re: Why does the Jazz own the Spurs so badly?
they're well coached and disciplined, two things the Spurs aren't this year.
Re: Why does the Jazz own the Spurs so badly?
What the fuck!!!!
Boozer looks like Wilt Chamberlain out there!!!
and Kirilenko looked like Larry Bird
Re: Why does the Jazz own the Spurs so badly?
I agree Pop had some shitty rotations. It's clear Parker was hurting the team. Where the fuck was Mason?????? what the fuck was Bonner doing out there??? he clearly can't shoot with that hand brace. did he really have to brick 3 wide open shots for Pop to realize????? Why leave Manu out there for the entire 3rd quarter and part of 4th, why not rest him for the 4th??? :bang
And last but not least, why not go to Timmy more???? IMO Pop ruined Timmy's 20,000 pt night.
oh and RJ sucks
:depressed

A combination of softer interior D and our backcourt not playing well (I'm pointing at Parker for the most part, but Manu and Hill haven't helped either).
The soft interior D is allowing Boozer to look like a hall of famer and the backcourt isn't negating D-Wills contributions or scoring enough to keep pace.

Not a good comparison at all. We're not nearly as good as the Mavs were then. No one would consider it an upset right now if Utah beat us in the first round.

Yet still there are many choose to keep there blinders on...
This team is lacking one of the most important recipes for championship success, and that being mentel toughness. They only seem to want to play the game for no more then 12 minutes.
A team will not even be able to sniff a championship run playing in spurts.
Now about teams running lay-up drills on the spurs all this season? heh, lets not even go there...:depressed
Re: Why does the Jazz own the Spurs so badly?
It's amazing that a team that may not even make the PO can own us like this. It's not much, but maybe we can take solace in the fact that Boozer may be traded since most believe he doesn't want to play for Utah next year, so the Jazz may want to get something for him now as opposed to just letting him walk.
So if the Jazz do creep into the PO it may be without Boozer, though the Spurs still have major problems to fix.
Re: Why does the Jazz own the Spurs so badly?
Kirilenko was the difference, and Jefferson can't guard him. His shots were wide open, whether it be a jumper or an uncontested lane to the basket. Credit their picks and screens for this, but RJ can't stay with him. You have to make Kirilenko work on D by going to RJ on a few more plays, then maybe Andre isnt as effective on offense.

AK exploded against the Spurs cause RJ sucks. He's a fucking useless player. Hoopstats eff list for small forwards has 20 players ranked above him.
