Oh jeez. Stop blaming the refs. The refs aren’t to blame for Mitchell’s refusal to get to the line. Cmon

Tired of this comparison.
1. The west is a hell of a lot better.
2. Our tear last year was exceptional. That’s why we keep talking about it. That’s why it was so surprising. It’s the outlier not the usual.
We can’t keep jackpotting through the first few months of the season in hopes of going on historic runs to get into the playoffs.

He’s not getting to the line because he doesn’t know how. Whenever he goes for a drive and layin he try’s to shoot around the defender instead of jumping into the defender, he seems to shy away from contact, also why he struggles to finish at times.

It would certainly help him. But I don’t think that’s true. It’s relative. Steph curry gets like 4fta. In fact there’s only 6 guys in the nba doing that... and there are 30 franchises.
The story of the game is bad D on Redick and 0 fastbreak points at home.

Mitchell could absolutely do a better job of getting to the rim, he often tries to avoid contact to force up a shot when he could really seek it out and ensure he gets to the line.
With that being said, the defense lost this game not Mitchell taking 10 threes and no FTs.

At least Exum showed some potential tonight. I guess that's the only actual positive takeaway from tonight.

You said what could be worse than shooting 3/8 from 3 with 0 fta. He could’ve shot 0/8. That’d be worse. Complaining about him shooting a good % from (at that time 38%) wasn’t making your point very clear, guy.

That's insane. How can you get zero? The effort needs to be better.

I wonder how many games this year Ricky has shot under 25%. I'm too lazy to look it up.
And Embiid being the best player on the floor.
Our offense isn't good enough to succeed against good defenses. With Butler and Embiid, the Sixers are tough defensively.

Reread my post. You’re still not understanding my complaint. It’s pretty clear what I was complaining about. Focus on the last sentence.

11 of the 36 games (nearly one third) including tonight.

Sometimes I wonder if the jazz should just gamble and start Exum, maybe all he needs is the run and a chance to gain some rhythm. Sometimes you get better and improve with the extra time and responsibility.
Ehh, he's going to be 1 or 2 no matter what. You can live with him getting his. You just can't give up that many good looks to Redick.

I know what your complaint is, we all already think it. But He had an ok night tonight. This one wasn’t on him as much as it was on the terrible defense and Ricky going negative enfuego for the 11th time this season, imo.
