He believed in the organization and loved the team. Plus Quin gave him the green light on offense
Trade deadline discussion
- Thread starter Jingled
- Start date
I trust Conley and even Bogey far more to create for themselves and even others. Clarkson can create for himself but his career has shown that he is very low efficiency besides the very rare games and he gives up just as much on defense. He also kills his teammates with his lack of ball movement. At some point we needed his offense at any cost. We dont any more. If we keep him ill cheer for him and hope he gets hot when it matters because he seems like a good person. But if we can get someone that fits, we should.
That is what he said, but we also gave him way more money than anyone else would have. That will make someone say nice things. We often overpay to keep people here like him. Its pretty normal for the Jazz over the years.

I'm not here to attack Bojan but he will get carved up defensively. His shot is either off or on. I predict the jazz trade Bojan before Clarkson
Uh... Clarkson gets carved up worse defensively. Bojan at least tries on defense and in certain matchups is okay. Clarkson is the same with his shot being on or off, but his is off way way more often.
Also Conley stayed with the team and chose to be here just the same, yet you want to trade him and he is a far better player than Clarkson on both ends of the court,
Its okay, I think you are a huge fan of Clarkson, so I get it.

He’s just such a space cadet… I watch him play defense with the same thought I have watching my dog chase butterflies “wonder what exactly he is thinking”.
He seemed focused and better to start the season, but it went away quickly. He still tries at times but then just zones out and isnt trying at all most of the time. Its night and day difference between being a bad defender and not trying at all. Its okay to struggle to stay in front of someone as long as you try and you make good rotations. Look at Middleton for the Bucks. He is probably the least athletic player in the NBA ever, but he rotates pretty well, works hard, and moves his feet. Same as Ingles from a couple years ago. Although Ingles had other world reaction time with his hands for awhile somehow.
This may not sound too popular, but the Jazz could probably divide Royce's minutes up, give some of them to Paschall and some of them to House, and I don't think they'd miss much.
House did a nice job switching onto Booker and CP tonight. He ended with 14/7/4/2/2. Meanwhile, Paschall is up to 34% on his 3s.

And he knows he won't get benched for playing like a jackass
Sad too cuz Clarkson is extremely quick and has very long arms.
It's wild to me everyone complains about our guards being small when they all have extremely impressive wingspans (Conley included).
No way. Clarkson is a net-negative player on offense, let alone defense.
Snyder is really hard on young PG/SG but gives vets the greenest light in the world. Exum got immediately yanked for any missed rotation on defense. Butler can hardly move without getting the ire of Snyder. But Clarkson can not even try on defense and jack up bad shots over and over again. I feel like with the young guys he is trying to teach them and make them into better players with learning moments, where he isnt trying to change some vets at all. Some of that is fine but you also need to let these guys play through mistakes and get minutes. Butler and Hughes should make Clarkson easy to trade away.
