I get it. It helps immensely if the defense has to respect your jumpers. Unfortunately, that hasn't been the case since the DWill/Korver/Memo days. The Jazz shot 1/12 from the perimeter in the 4th Q tonight.

Yep and stepping another foot or two out isn't going to help them make more of them.
 
It's pretty awesome that Korver has continued to get better. That guy totally changes the complexion of the game when he's out there. If you go under, he kills you. If you switch, he kills you. You can't lose track of him for one second. I'd like to see him in a jazz jersey again.
 
That loss stung. It should have been a win, but the offensive ineptitude in the last 3 minutes was an utter disgrace.

Gordon Hayward = 59 %

Was that tonight, or which games is this from? Hayward didn't shoot that well tonight.

With all three of those top players, it's great that they can also slash. Kanter's a bit slow though.

if thats what you saw, than so be it. Schroders increased minutes coincide with Atlantas 3 game winning streak... care to try and dismiss that?

the numbers dont lie, Dennis doesnt need to have excuses made for him. Trey' continues to dig his grave even deeper with these %'s, the bottom line is the Jazz are playing losing basketball with him running the ship, its easy to play the blame game elsewhere, but that fact remains, and his #'s stick out like a sore thumb.

the cream will rise to the top either way.

I didnt say he looked like ****, he looked like a winner to me, Dennis is acclimating himself just fine.
 
Just watched that dagger korver 3. Favors' horrible Defense is unacceptable.

Man, you're guarding Kyle Korver. You should stick yourself on him. You know he won't drive. If he wants just let him drive. Why you sag off Favors. Just WHY? Ridiculous sequence... We're 3-6 now. Great!

It's now two straight games the Jazz lost after leading by 8 in Q4. This is one huge problem, closing out games. But the biggest problem is letting opponents have a run so easily. Remember the Suns game. They had a 19-2 run in the second quarter. Happens every game, even when the Jazz win comfortably.

He said in preseason I think that they need to step back and hit the 3pt shot. I don't think any coach wants his players to take long 2s early in the clock.

I always felt much more comfortable shooting inside the line than beyond. But I doubt they would have the same problem, the pros. Or do they?

It may be pyschological. I mean it is closer to the hoop but they have to realize hitting %33 on 3 threes is almost the same as hitting %50 from 2pt range. No need to shoot it a foot inside the arc unless the shot clock is running out.
