Jazz are struggling

So why are the Jazz struggling so bad this year?

DERON WILLIAMS
Last year
19.4 ppg, 10.7 apg, 47.1 fg%, 31.0 3p%
This year
19.5 ppg, 9.8 apg, 49.1 fg%, 38.4 3p%

So he's improving in scoring; maybe his assists are down because other guys keep missing their shots and he feels he has to put the team on his back more in the fourth quarter.

CARLOS BOOZER
Last year
16.2 ppg, 10.4 rpg, 2.1 apg, 49.0 fg%
This year
19.3 ppg, 10.6 rpg, 3.5 apg, 53.5 fg%

He was injured last year and his numbers reflect he's better, and he's using his teammates more. Looks like one of D-Will's assists a game is comign from Boozer.

Then there's these guys...

MEHMET OKUR
Last year
17.0 ppg, 7.7 rpg, 44.6 3p%, 1.83 TO
This year
12.6 ppg, 6.8 rpg, 36.6 3p%, 2.20 TO

ANDREI KIRILENKO
Last year
11.6 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 1.2 spg, 1.2 bpg
This year
11.1 ppg, 4.6 rpg, 0.9 spg, 1.0 bpg

RONNIE BREWER
Last year
13.7 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 50.8 fg%, 70.2 ft%
This year
10.6 ppg, 3.6 rpg, 49.8 fg%, 61.0 ft%

CJ MILES
Last year
9.1 ppg, 1.5 apg, 45.9 fg%, 35.2 3p%
This year
8.7 ppg, 1.2 apg, 39.3 fg%, 33.3 3p%

PAUL MILLSAP

13.5 ppg, 8.6 rpg, 1.8 apg, 30.1 mpg
This year
10.0 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 0.9 apg, 25.6 mpg

And the Jazz were only an 8th seed in the playoffs last year.
