What's new

Remember the Alamo Dome - Jazz @ Spurs 3/23/2018 6:30 pm MST

He's not our best from an efficiency standpoint.

It is irrelevant. Others would not be efficient either if they had to create 15 shots a game for themselves. He's got a difficult, but important, role on the team. A role that nobody else can fulfill. He's a big part of the reason why the Jazz are where they are. And he'll get better over time.
 
Also, the turnover on Donovan is weird. The one where he saved the ball from going out of bounds and flung it to the other side of the court. The boxscore didnt count it as a turnover. It seemed like a bad call from the refs to count it as possession for Utah. I'm not completely sure how that is ruled though.
 
I kinda like the fact that we were right there with them while we were playing like hot garbage and their vets were playing out of their minds. Good sign.
 
No. The post guy wasnt beating us all night. LMA was destroying us with pick n pop and then by driving off closeouts. He was playing well from the post too, but I'll take my odds with him trying to shoot over Gobert in an isolation.
Gobert is a great team defender, not so much in isolation. Late in the game, and especially late in the shot clock, Mitchell and Rubio, both lightning quick guys, had opportunities to drop down. I say make them prove it at least once or twice before you abandon the idea of team defense.

LMA made 0 shots in the OT besides an offensive rebound putback because Gobert had to come over and contest Gay's drive you stupid ****. Gobert locked him down in OT.
 
I'll let the numbers speak for themselves.

Donovan over the last 14 games:

108 FG - 252 FGA = 43%
29 3FG - 112 3FGA = 26%

~yikes~
Jazz 11-3 over that span

Donovan averaging 23 points

Somebody has to score to win nba games. Donovan is the best option for the Jazz.
 
All he did tonight was miss open layups and foul shooters for and 1s.
He was 1/2 from the field. So at most he missed 1 layup and that missed layup led directly to a Favors putback dunk. He had two fouls. One led to Gay FT's and one led to a Ginobili and-1. During O'Neale's time on the court he was a 0 net rating. Not much to complain about.
