Jazz 76ers Game THREAD

Like what? 3-8 from the 3 point line and zero attempted free throws is inexcusable. Seriously, what is a worse stat than that? How can our best offensive player and athletic freak not even get to the free throw line?

Also, 3/8 3pt shooting is 38% and plenty good enough (his 3s have since declined to 3/10 on desperation shots now tho)

To be a franchise player, DM needs to be getting to the line at least eight times a game.

Yeah guy you’re missing the point. Go and reread my post.

Dec. 27 last year, the Jazz was 15-20, this year, we are better. This is the only positive thing I can think of!

That’s a good question for him and for the refs tbh. He gets plenty of contact-no-calls every game. Not sure what else he should do without getting even more reckless than he already gets.

Oh jeez. Stop blaming the refs. The refs aren’t to blame for Mitchell’s refusal to get to the line. Cmon

Tired of this comparison.

1. The west is a hell of a lot better.
2. Our tear last year was exceptional. That’s why we keep talking about it. That’s why it was so surprising. It’s the outlier not the usual.

We can’t keep jackpotting through the first few months of the season in hopes of going on historic runs to get into the playoffs.

He’s not getting to the line because he doesn’t know how. Whenever he goes for a drive and layin he try’s to shoot around the defender instead of jumping into the defender, he seems to shy away from contact, also why he struggles to finish at times.

It would certainly help him. But I don’t think that’s true. It’s relative. Steph curry gets like 4fta. In fact there’s only 6 guys in the nba doing that... and there are 30 franchises.

The story of the game is bad D on Redick and 0 fastbreak points at home.

What's the problem with this team? Either they play amazing or terrible. Very few games are close. I really think the major issue is the obvious. Favors is a center who is our starting 4, it's not reliable.

Mitchell could absolutely do a better job of getting to the rim, he often tries to avoid contact to force up a shot when he could really seek it out and ensure he gets to the line.

With that being said, the defense lost this game not Mitchell taking 10 threes and no FTs.
