Favors!!

Quick, substitute him out and leave Carroll in !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Color Me Badd Fan]

Dick Bavetta is reffing? Hasn't he retired a couple times already?

I haven't watched tha Jazz very much this year. Favors looks really good, why doesnt he get more minutes?

Welcome to the mystery every Jazz fan and commentator has been trying to answer all year.

Pop subs in 5 guys before Corbin subs in his best bench player and easily one of his 5 best players.

Pop starts a rookie drafter after Burks, Corbin goes with the old cliche about playoff experience. Pop tries new lineups and goes with what works. Corbin stumbles into a good lineup, but prefers that the other team chose the matchups.

And gives Favors 9 minutes in the first half while howard, who cant hit a shot, 11 minutes.

Every analyst, fan, and commentator agrees that the big lineup has worked great for the jazz and saved their season. Also, that the Spurs weakness is against such a big lineup. I'm not through the first half yet, but I haven't seen it yet.

Popovich is playing 10 guys because he has a deep bench. Corbin is playing ten guys because...?

At least its a close game. At least so far.

[Jacob]

I just scanned through it. But it seemed like the halftime studio show on espn totally ignored the game at hand. Maybe I should switch to the local channel.

Marc Stein sees what Corbin doesn't:

Marc Stein @ESPNSteinLine
Second half 'bout to start in San Antonio. Most head-turning player so far even with Parker scoring 16 already: Derrick Favors. Spurs up 7

I'm glad I'm missing this. Watching Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili dismantle the Jazz no es divertido.

3/4 of the game is over and we haven't seen the big lineup yet. Unbelievable, but not the biggest head scratcher. No, Corbin, in his infinite wisdom has chosen to give Carroll, a guy nobody in the league wanted the entire first half of the season, meaningful playoff minutes. The same guy Corbin wouldn't even give meaningful regular season minutes to until several wings got hurt. Wow.

We saw it for a couple of minutes until Al picked up his fourth foul. But this sure is ugly.

Maybe he'll put Al back in the game with six minutes to play and the Jazz down 15 if we're lucky.

nah, we'll stick with carol and burks

Carroll will finish this game with about 20 minutes. While the team's best lineup down the stretch when they played their best and most meaningful basketball gets two minutes. It's as if Corbin is trying to tank for a lottery pick about 10 games too late.

[Jacob]

I'd still trade the playoffs for the draft pick. We really need some more players at 1-3
