this. and nba offenses know how to create spacing and get guys looks. if it were just a matter of not letting guys be open, guys like grayson allen and aj green would never get shots. and to cy's point, with his size and release, he doesn't need much space anyway.
yup. i think his intentions were admirable - take a ****** program and bring it to the top. it just proved a lot harder than his 17 year old underdeveloped brain could fathom.
sort of. HH hit the nail on the head above.
he's able to play different because he has spacing and competent teammates around him. he got more open shots without a defender right in his grill last night than he did all last season at rutgers - still shooting jumpers (wasn't putting it on...
I was a huge fan of sexton and yeah, he could pass. but he also got his own (and was good at it - again huge fan of the dude). my point was these guys arent going to take shots from the young players.
while the jazz will be terrible this year (yay!), it is a pretty fun mix of vets and youngsters. you can tell the veterans don't have any expectations - they were all more than willing to let the youngsters fly. nurkic 5 shots, love 3 shots, anderson 3 shots - and they are all very good...
the defense was nightmarish. very hard to watch. we are going to have to convince ourselves to love offensive basketball and focus on that side of the court this year. kessler will help, but they will be horrendous.
Key is a good passer and we know he can score. 9 assists with 0 turnovers tonight. averaged 6 assists last year despite playing off the ball a lot. we won't mistake him for jokic or lebron out there, but he's a solid passer.
the offense has looked clunky with wcj at point. he's just not much of a passer right now. he has good good change of pace, can get by people, can get his shot off (hopefully they will start dropping), but as a passer, he's just not there.
at least in this game, one of the main things that stands out about ace it's that he doesn't look rushed at all. as if the game is already slowed down for him.
Ace is going to take his lumps but he doesn't play like somebody who just turned 19.
Also as was mentioned above, it seems clear (and as a collier apologist, this is hard for me) the right starting lineup is key, ace, hendricks, lauri and kessler. it has a ton of length and shooting, and...
