Snyders failure to improve younger players costing the Jazz when their needed

I would rather see Neto at this point than Mack, tbh. Let Neto go at CP3 and get his 6 fouls knocking him around, then let Mack in and tell him to knock CP3 around. One problem I think is we are just not playing physical enough. Take the hard foul, send him to the bench before he shoots the free throw, let him know this is OUR house and he WILL NOT be allowed to just roam free.

Playing time is not at all the only means by which a player can improve.

Gobert has transformed himself from a total liability on offense to the 2nd most efficient roll-man in the NBA - it's well documented that the the coaches worked with him tirelessly on that. But despite all this, the main factor in his improvement wasn't that he was getting playing time or that the coaches were working long hours with him. It's simply that Rudy wanted to be great.

Time will tell with Lyles and Exum - but it's not like the coaches have given up on them. Player development takes both sides.

Playing time is not the only means to improve, but it is the most important means.

Every NBA player practices countless hours, but those hours mean jack if you don't get a reasonable shot at showing it in an actual game. Snyder has stifled Exum's improvement by not playing him much, and even when he did allow Exum to play, half the time he was designated to stand in the corner and watch Hill or Mack turn the ball over.

If Exum had been drafted to the Spurs, instead of sitting on the bench watching Chris Paul school every Jazz player, people would be talking about how great a player Exum is and how bright his future was. On the other hand, if Kawhi Leonard had been drafted to the Jazz and played for Snyder, he would be playing at a similar level to what Hood is playing at right now.

Lmao if you believe any of that garbage in the last paragraph.

I thought it was a great move tonight to put the yung Exum on Crawford in the 2nd half. It was a different look for Crawford and it sort of took him out of rhythm.
 
I'll add, I'll continue to trust Snyder until I don't. I mean, every year the Jazz have gotten better and this year we won over 50 games with a squad that was the most injured of all NBA teams. You can't argue with that. I really can't ask for more.
 
I don't understand how anybody can watch this series and conclude that Snyder isn't a great coach.
 
Exum played great up until his last possession on the court. You can tell he got super lost on defense and Jamal Crawford go a wide open 3 (that he somehow missed) because of it. Snyder yanked Dante directly after that.

Really hope we see Dante again though this series. Definitely has a role he can play in it for short stints.

Sucks that we have to hope Diaw,JJ,Ingles,Mack,GHill have big games for the Jazz to win while our talented high draft choices are buried on the end of the bench.

Throughout the years we've seen young players breakout in the playoffs after learning and gaining experience through the regular season and see older vets still producing but can't bring back the magic of their younger years.

JJ playing 31 minutes a night,will it be surprising to see him wear down and the shots start missing.Are Jazz fans still waiting for starting PF Diaw to have a big game,maybe get his 3 game totals of 6rebs and 17 pts in one game.Joe Ingles,who I definitely like to see the Jazz resign for all his intangibles is getting 33 minutes a game for 9ppg whereas the Jazz are needing PTS.Shane Mack who's struggling BUT who didn't think he wouldn't.Really shows that Snyder hasn't improved the younger players(Exum and Burks and even Hood).

GHill has played good ball but who'd deny he hasn't been outplayed by CPaul.CPaul has not been slowed down at all by GHill.Snyder even put Ingles height on CPaul in hopes to slow and disrupt CPaul.Good coaching to put Ingles height on CPaul ....no,Ingles is too slow.Exum has height and speed but Snyder failed to get Exum ready to play playoff basketball,he's glued to end of the bench when he has more speed and athleticism then all the other PG's ahead of him .Jazz fanz have witnessed it throughout the year in between his doghouse banishment's to the bench.

Sucks to see a fat 32 year old Raymond Felton and 37 year old Jamal Crawford push the ball up for Clippers while Exum and Burks sit.

And for those that think Snyder developed and made Gobert the great Center he is today,I think Gobert did more for winning than Snyder's coaching.In the end Jazz get into the playoffs but we should be watching Exum use his great speed and length to make the defense a weapon and get the Jazz some easy pts on fast breaks.We should be seeing Lyles contributing 3 pt shooting and his multidimensional game.We should be seeing the veterans coming in when needed instead of getting all the minutes and Jazz fans HOPING they can bring back the past and have a big game.
