That seems to apply to pretty much every NBA executive, as well as all the posters here. AFAICT, lucky drafting/signing/trading is huge part of championships.
NBA Radio - Donovan Mitchell Should Go. Not to Knicks
- Thread starter Jazz Fusion
- Start date
You obviously don’t get it. So let’s put it this way. How many starting Shooting guards have high assist numbers?

Lol yeah that was worded poorly. I edited it.
There were only 2 shooting guards this year that averaged more passes for possible assists than Donovan. Harden and Beal. And only Harden had a game with 15 Assists.
350 games and not having more than 11 assists is normal. Most players never get to double figure assists in a career.

either find DM a new backcourt partner or just trade him.
Yeah we need a defender with size to play next to Donovan if we are planning on building around himOn/Off Court Compare Traditional

Im sure that you have stats like that for every player. There are a lot of misses in every nba game that would count as assists if teams shot 100% from the field.
Just remember that he has only had 11 assists twice in his career and for much of that career the jazz had the number one offense in the nba and were one of the highest scoring offenses in the nba. So the ball was going in the hoop alot.

not just defense. DM's offense drops significantly when paired with Conley. He averages 26pt on 46% shooting per 36min when Conley isn't on the floor but only averages 21pt on 33% shooting when he is

Thats a very fair point/question. I dont expect don to get a ton of assists as he is our primary scorer. I wonder how his assist averages compare to someone like say zach lavine (just pulled the name out of nowhere)?

Good posts. Agreed. Conley is a problem for donovan and the team in general. Bad trade.
That's a good thing. It can't be all Donovan, all the time.
