What's new

This season will vindicate Ty Corbin

This recent losing streak shows the strengths of Corbin's system vs. Quin's no system offense. I'm going to dance lightly on these eggshells so the knee-jerk responses might be a little better thought out instead.

Quin's read react offense fails badly when Hayward is having a bad night or is not there. Corbin's more reserved, conservative system could have kept the Jazz in a couple of these games while controlling tempo. That's the trade-off between the two. No way Corbin loses to Minnesota with 7 players or barely squeeze 80 points out against LA.


They say live by the 3 and die by the 3. Quin is living and dying by Hayward's play.
 
Don't forget about DMC. Carroll was a high-energy, but not really all that impactful sub with Utah. He averaged 17 mins and 6.0 pts. per game: scrub numbers. He had no range. He works with Quin for ONE season and becomes a pretty good starter who shoots 36% on his 3's (and up to 39% this season).

Trust me, stats didn't reflect how good he was here. Its kinda how Millsap is now-- do stats reflect his game? Only Carroll was even better than Sap.

Disagree. Any coach will have troubles winning games when your best playmaker in positions 1-3 is Joe Ingles.

Hood, Burks, Hayward out. Trey goes 4/22. Exum is allergic to scoring.

Ingles dropped 18 on them and we still lost. Cotton is a D-League player, Clark is a scrub. How could we win a game with this sort of playmaking? Rely on Elijah "27 year old rookie" Millsap?

Those "pretty damn good shooting situations" couldn't have been all that great...DMC's 3pt % worsened under Corbin, DMC shot 36.8% in year one under Corbin, then dropped to 28.6% in year 2. Once Carroll left Utah and played for a real coach his 3pt shooting percentages increased close to 40%. Where do you come up with this crap?

Solid box score ballin. Everyone knows Carroll improved, cut the crap.

Under Corbin, Carroll went from a .37% 2 point shooter to over 50% on 3 times the shots. Yet the year he shot 19 3 pointers and happened to make a few is what you're focusing on? Get real.


Granted, I don't actually credit Corbin with improving Carroll any more than I credit Quin for Gobert's breakout. However, Corbin did use Carroll the best he possibly could just as Quin is using Gobert on all these weak side cleanup "Kobe assist" rebound buckets.
 
Sota was bleeding players, of course-- but Wiggins & LaVine are in different stratospheres than any of our playmakers that we had in offense last night.

All they needed to do was double Favors in order to win. Ingles damn near won the game for us.

By running set plays that have higher scoring consistency.

I prefer this offense. I'm only outlining the trade-offs coaches make. I would have brought this up earlier but I doubt anyone would take me seriously, or care about it at all. Quin's system is pretty vanilla thus far and relies on Hayward making plays. I'm interested to see if he can build on this by adding some options, or even some semblance other than freelancing all the time. They're framework is there with a big catching high outside the arc to initiate action, but there's not much more going on as far as I can tell.
 
From this interview:

https://jazzfanz.com/showthread.php?39609-Quin-Snyder-Interview

Utah’s pick-and-roll defense last season was among the worst in the NBA, per Synergy Sports, particularly against roll men in Corbin’s trapping scheme, to whom the Jazz allowed a gross 51.5 percent shooting. They were 27th for per-possession efficiency allowed to roll men, and 26th against pick-and-roll ball-handlers. This year, with much of the same personnel, they’re 12th against ball-handlers, and third overall versus opposing roll men, cutting that ugly 51.5 percent figure down to 42.1 percent,
 
Quin's plan, from SportsNight:

"Technically, I have a plan." -Casey
"What's the plan?" -Dan
"It's Napolean's plan." -Casey
"Who's Napolean?" -Dan
"A 19th century French emporer." -Casey
"You crackin' wise with me now?" -Dan
"He is." -Casey
"Thanks." -Dan
"He had a two-part plan." -Casey
"What was it?" -Dan
"First we show up, then we see what happens." -Casey
 
Beat a playoff teamusing dleague players? No big deal. Ty Corbin could have won that game last night using junior jazz kids and Enes Kanter. Yeah, that's it.
