The Jazz have been really good running this system too. Quin isn’t crazy for sticking too it. One difference between the stars and the Jazz is the the Stars had players who created turnovers. The Jazz were 28th in creating turnovers last season.It's weird but the Stars were pretty good on the defensive side of the balls last year and were running the same system. It's like some of the Jazz players didn't care. I know the skill levels differ but it appeared to me the Stars were giving effort and Jazz only so often.
The nature of the scheme is conservative, so I don’t expect a ton of turnovers created...but there’s a severe lack of defensive playmaking. Everyone is content to stay home and do the bare minimum. This is where Rubio is missed.
I really wish Donovan would put more focus on defense. He was defensive prospect first, but that’s been lost in the NBA. I understand he has a heavy offensive load, but he also takes on too much creation himself when there’s several other players frustrated with the amount touches and shots they’re getting.
