Everything about the Jazz training camp so far has either been about how much more the players like Quin compared to Corbin or transition defense.
Though I guess Quin caring so much about transition D isn't that much of a surprise after the Hawks were the 7th worst offensive rebounding team in NBA history last year so they could stop transition baskets.

It will be interesting to see Kanter as a more three point bomber who doesn't attack the glass as much. Generally, I think transition D is a better thing to focus on than OREBs so hopefully this works out.
Not that you have to give up on offensive rebounding to be a better transition team, but there is a tradeoff and I think the Jazz are probably headed to offensive rebound a good deal less this year than last year so they can improve their defense.
