Game Thread - Jazz @ Trail Blazers 8 PM MTN

At least Mitchell only attempted 10 FG's and there were none of his ridiculous 3pt attempts from way out of his range. Only Korver took one of those - and missed.

He could get worse. I mean not Simmons level bad shooting, but he could have a cold streak before he gets better again.

The difference Ben Simmons doesn't have to shoot to be good. Ben Simmons is better than Donovan not even close. Joe ingles is the most underrated player in the league. He is so good
 
Ya Ben Simmons is a garbage shooter but you don't ever see him forcing up bad jumpers just because he can, for better or for worse.

Not sure how Simmons gets a mention here.....

But it's a an absolute insult to Simmons to actually be in a Mitchell comparison.

Simmons is so much better then Mitchell it's not funny, and i would say that if Simmons was jacking up shots then his percentages wouldn't be any worse then what Mitchell has put up recently. Going on Mitchell's recent games i would say he cant shoot either, unfortunately he doesn't really do anything else good.

Interesting take considering that before Butler got to Philly you could easily have made the argument that Simmons hadn't really made any progress and if anything had slightly regressed as well. Butler has taken so much pressure off of Simmons' shoulders since Butler can create a shot for himself or others on the perimeter, and allows Simmons to pick and choose his spots better.

Mitchell has regressed harder but I also think Mitchell would benefit greatly from having two offensive all star talents around him like Simmons has the luxury of in Philly. I don't think they go from being neck and neck in the ROTY race to all of a sudden being Simmons is that much better that it would be blasphameous to even bring up Mitchell in the discussion considering the circumstances.
 
Exum-Korver-Ingles-Crowder-Favors plus Sefolosha at times is fun. FUN

What can I say about Rubio? First half he was so bad QS ended up benching him and Exum finished the half. Ricky took notice because second half he was Rick Curry and made Dame look like a G-leaguer. How beautiful was that pass from Lillard to Nurkic on the bench? He was completely out of the game (Not only Nurkic, Lillard XD)

On another note, is it me or McCollum sucks now?

Lol. I know what you're saying. But why don't you mention Gobert here instead of Simmons? You love throwing in the needle to us Aussies :)

And many jazz fans here thought Mitchell should have been the ROY the last season. LOL.

Simmons is getting better all the time ( much better fg%, free throw %, much more aggresive and positive in offense) and mitchell is getting worse this season.
The nba made absolutely made the right decision by awarding the ROY to simmons.

Nah. It's Mitchell's 2nd season. It's Simmons' 3rd.
 
Not worried about Mitchell yet. He still has gravity, and it helps the entire team.

Quin and his teammates say the same thing.

He wants to perform better, but even shooting as bad as he has he is helping team compete and win.
 
Lol so Jazz, UtahJazz, Vossy, and Sandman all with little to no post all decide to come here and spout insecurities about Mitchell at the same time frame. Hm.

Glad this forum has a great ignore feature.
