And? There were plenty of players for Mavs to attack at the first time. Mitchell and Paschall for example. They called a timeout and we went basket for basket for a while, they started their isos earlier and crashed the glass. That it was unsustainable was plain as ****. And it turned out to be unsustainable.

We actually played the same switch all D once Rudy came back, he got matched up with Brunson twice. One basket, one miss then they went to Dinwiddie who had 2 easy baskets over Mitchell. Paschall being in there wouldn't change a thing.

We were awesome with a lineup of Mitchell, Clarkson, house, bogey, and paschall. We should have used the lineup that was awesome more often and the lineups that weren't awesome less often imo.
 
Gobert is being negated largely because the Jazz main offensive players are content with terrible offensive possessions. There is no ball movement no drive and kick. It's all very tough shots.

The wild thing is that Utah actually played good offense. They made a ton of shots and FT's. Utah's ability to make tough shots is really incredible this year. A lot of props to Bogey/Don/Clarkson. But they have traded that for generating less easy shots.

Their defense is just ***.

Gobert has been largely useless in this series, but a good deal of that is due to the fact that his teammates arent letting him succeed on defense with how bad their effort is.

That awesome line-up was getting put to shed. It was just that we made some baskets and the pace picked up but Mavs were gaining ground anyways. Trying to change momentum again wasn't a bad bet and since going to it the second time didn't work out, it was justifiable.

I disagree. Gobert takes up a **** ton of space on offense and is easily schemed out by players sagging off / hedging the lob. Because they can do this, it drastically removes any spacing for our perimeter players to attack the paint. He can't punish small ball. Which is what a Jokic or Embiid do.

Dude I wanna give you the thumbs up but I can’t you just got such a massive man crush on Mitchell it’s ridiculous! Kyrie plays better defense than Mitchell does. Conley plays better D than Mitchell does. Brunson plays better D than Mitchell does.?I really hate to say it but he can’t move those damn dogs because they’re too big!

I see Don as the most exciting Jazz player I have ever watched live. He is entertainment and this whole thing is about entertainment.

Yes his defense sucks, but we have him stuck next to an undersized poor defender, struggling Royce and pathetic Bojan. Add in that the Rudy system sucks.

Then on offense, Don wants to attack the rim but he can't because Rudy's guy is clogging the lane.

I mean, it's not hard to see what great teams and players do now - 5 shooter lineups and let the stars take over. We literally hamper our star.

It's nice to see us all getting along at least. Not many arguments or disagreements on jazzfanz. Everybody pissed.
This loss has brought us together. Kumbaya
