Jazz @ Mavericks Game Thread 6:30 MT 2/9/17

The thing about the Rudy foul is that I see holding and much worse than what he did, all the time, in games near the end when it is close and the refs never call it. I guess because it was so obvious as everyone was watching Dirk and no one else was around them, that they had to call it.
 
The thing about Barnes scoring on Favors in the OT ISOs that was distressing is that a year ago it never would've happened. Favors' mobility has seriously declined. Will he ever get it back?
 
I give u. Captain obvious!!!!


Lol
The funny thing is when the jazz were up 20 I was just about to bump my blowout prediction but was playing with my daughter at the time and then had to get her ready for bed, feed her, put her to bed.
Then I came back and watched more of the game and saw the jazz quickly dying out there.

This is simply not true. Harrison Barnes leads the entire NBA in Isolation frequency this year according to the stats on NBA.com ( shooting 47%). on 5.3 plays per game, a rate ahead of LeBron and only behind Harden Westbrook and Melo.

Barnes (was higher in this weeks ago) is scoring .94 Points per possession in ISO which is tied with Harden and LeBron and ahead of Westbrook. Meaning he's one of the best high volume ISO players in the NBA, its unfair to give Favors that much benefit of the doubt...

Yup. It's a product of lineups with Harrison Barnes playing at the 4 and Dirk playing at the 5. Barnes get to iso against slower PFs and the rim protector is dragged out of the paint.
 
Didn't know that. Still favors was a fantastic win projector last couple years and could really get off his feet quickly I just think that wouldn't have happened if it were last year

Did anyone else notice how painstakingly difficult everything looked for Dirk out on the court? I mean, even the simple task of running up and down the court looked very hard for him. Don't even get me started on his moves to free himself up for a shot, he just seemed ancient out there.
