This is so apparent when you watch House… he’s the best guy we have navigating screens. Royce and Forrest just seem to stick at times.

With so many screens that get set in the nba this seems like a skill that would be more prevalent and more sought after
 
All that comes to mind is Luka's embarrassing flop in the 2nd quarter that the refs inexplicably fell for.
Man that was bad. You are talking about the one when he was making a pass right? So bad.

I hated the play where the jazz had a 3 on fast break and Clarkson jacked up a three. Then Thurl tried to say that it was the right play. No it wasn't. Maybe if it was Donovan or Bogey but clarkson is not a good three point shooter. And even if it were donovan or bogey its still a poor decision. If you have an easy layup you always take it. Layup/dunk is still the best shot in basketball.
Only someone who is around a 40% 3 point shooter should even consider passing up an easy layup in transition for an on the run off the dribble pull up three. Clarkson isn't close to 40% and never has been close in his entire career. He simply isn't a good 3 point shooter.

Thurl is absolutely in love with Clarkson.
