It's not a punishment. Shouting at JC is shouting into the wind. He's 30 and will make the dumb mistakes he does, yelling or not.
More so than Sexton, yes. Mainly due to the spacing Clarkson provides as a volume shooter plus Clarkson is a more talented passer.
But I don't think Clarkson is what Hardy envisions as the starting guard either.
Yeah, because it's the generally accepted take on Sexton from everyone who isn't desperate to be a contrarian

Who yells at Hardy, guy is a rookie coach that has made many headscratchers this year. Acts like he is POP already, lets see him do something first.
He has only made the Jazz a playoff contender in a year where they were projected bottom 5 and the GM had to sabotage the team and that still might not be working to keep him from winning.
He's yelling at Sexton and Sexton is playing the best basketball of his career. His methods seem to be working.
I don’t think anyone thinks Sexton is a lockdown defender. The problem is people are making **** up while watching games saying he’s getting torched when he absolutely was not. I think they think if the opposing PG scores it means Sexton was guarding them or something? Or just look at the box score and assumed he was guarding them? Just super weird.
Same stuff used to happen with Gobert. There was one game Jokic scored like 49 or something on us and people were saying Gobert got torched when in fact it was Favors guarding him the majority of the time if I remember correctly.
It is extra weird to **** on a player randomly when he actually tries on defense when we had guys like Donovan not trying in the playoffs.

He must have felt attacked to reply like that. If the shoe fits my man by all means go ahead.
LOL you are whack as ****.
If players like Brunson and Haliburton are going 6/18 against someone who is trying on defense I think he must be doing something right. If the eye test matches the stats then I don’t know what to tell you.

Ainge is the reason we are 500 .
I'm just saying the facts man.
For example: if a player takes a wide open 3 that was the result of player X messing up a rotation but player Y ended up being the closest player to the shooter, Player Y is going to get labeled as the primary defender and the make/miss will register to him. The defensive tracking stats are very flawed in that regard.

no, hardy is the reason the jazz are .500. ainge has taken several steps to make this team bad. leveled up the tank at the trade deadline and hardy still has them winning.
