Back to the DM stuff... I think the injury really did mess up his off-season. I was really dismissive of those that were worried, but if he couldn't go 100% until training camp it not only hurts his development, but just continuing what he started from the prior year... he may just be getting his legs.

Listen to the Weekly Run Pod... Tony seemed to indicate he couldn't really work much this summer.

Also I still believe that when the schedule lightens up and korver is all the way integrated that the team as a whole will start to "click" and DM will play more like we expected him to this season.

Less travel will not only create more practice opportunities but maybe also create more opportunities to heal lingering minor injuries that some of our guys may have.

This. If you look at the game after Donovan sat out for 2 games with his rib issue, his first game back he was great. I think Donovan is a bit tired and the dude puts himself out there on every given night. I truly haven’t seen him lack effort. Don has been asked to do a lot. I think he’s very worn down, and I think an extended home stay in the next week could help him quite a bit.

He had 6 assists last night. What does Tmac and you want 10? He gets his team going and shares the ball, but he’s the only one that creates on the team. He has to be in attack mode. That’s what Quin wants him to do. How are there this many jazz fans are there here that don’t get that. How do you not know that he’s fully a team guy who shares the ball, the point is he’s supposed to be in attack mode because we already have Rubio and Ingles that run the offense and create for others. Get a ****ing clue!!

You must be a dumbass. Having a 1 assist to 1 turnover ratio is not "sharing the ball." He's averaging 3 assists a game and 3 turnovers a game. Just because he has 6 assists ONE night doesn't mean he's doing it every night. "LOL 6 ASSISTS 1 NIGHT!!~~!~~~ WhAT ElSE Do JaZz faNz wanT!!! LOL~~~~!!!!"

You're trying to sound like you know more than TMac, Kenny, Shaq, Charles, and other PLAYERS in the league. Which is making you look like even a bigger dumbass

Calling someone a dumbass in the first line of your sentence you lose a lot of friends that way.

I’ll see your dumbass and raise you an idiot!!

He’s the only decent shot creator on the team. His job is to shoot and score. He’s also in his second year. And only averages 0.2 assists less than Hayward did, and that team had better offensive players that could score. Mitchell is still in his infancy as far as the nba goes. There’s going to be growing pains. He’s not a finished product.

DM's season is a direct result of DL doing nothing in the off season. It's too much to demand him to carry the team every night. The reason the schedule has killed us is that we have a very thin bench and we are wanting our starters to do more than they are capable of. I'm afraid DM is going to have a tough year if DL continues to sit on his bum and not get us another player that can create their own shot. If you had to draw up a defensive plan for the Jazz, it would be lay off Rubio, double DM. Don't let Jingles shoot. Simple as that.

Well, honestly everyone thought that just coming back with the same team that went like 30-7 the last part of the season was the right plan. Who could blame him

DM (and the team) will be fine when the schedule eases up.
