Mitchell doesn't know what to do right now offensively and is obviously confused.
This isn't great as Mitchell is our entire offense.

The only team who can successfully do what Utah is trying to do with Harden is the Bucks. Otherwise you're literally letting him get into the paint at will and leaving a shooter open, floater, or drop off.
But fuk utar

But the bucks do have the length to close those gaps quicker and easier.
The defense has been OK.
Outside of the last 60 seconds, lol.
The issue is that offensively it's been horrible.

By IWMTB19 Go To PostProbably need a different defensive strategy in the second half.

Incredible
Favors would be doing a very good job at blocking out Capela on some of these plays.
But the offense has been so bad that Quin is having to play Crowder over Favors for the theoretical spacing.

By sy xxx Go To Posthow the fuck did utah make the playoffs? worstern conference confirmed.Not every team can get smoked by DJ Augustine
Favors-Gobert works really good defensively with this scheme idea.
The issue, again, is that we'll be even more congested in the half court when Harden etc stop throwing the ball away.

Rudy seems too anxious after those 30000000000 CP3 midrange jumpers last year.
Harden is a lot less good at those than CP3.

By friskykillface Go To PostA wide open missed 3 by Crowder 🧐averages about 3.4 a game

I know, I hated him bricking those in Boston, got me hopeful but nope, bricks
By Smokey Go To PostHarden didn't have any FTs in the first half
but Jeffrey
post u coward
Fly fishing, bruh
No wifi at the creek
Mitchell is still really good at shooting
But he needs to find a way to get into the paint tonight.
And obviously that's hard with Rubio at PG and Crowder at PF.
But... that's kind of what needs to happen.

Mitchell neeeeeeeds to get into the paint.
Or the Jazz have to somehow make this a series where the score is in the 80s.

Overall, since Dante Exum is not any good and will never be healthy, it was probably a bad idea to not trade him for Mike Conley Jr.
Defensively there's some stuff we can built off of and Rudy seemed overly anxious tonight so we could play better there moving forward.
Offensively, there were basically no positives whatsoever.

Gobert MVP
By reilo Go To PostBeen watching the game m8, Gobert getting cookedthen understand defenses better or something
By unknown Go To PostCrowder used to be money with 3's too in Boston.
Not in the playoffs, he was washed
By diehard Go To Postthen understand defenses better or something
He got ate up last year too in the series 🤷♂️
Just not sure offensively what adjustments should be made... There were almost no good offensive possessions tonight.
Might just have to hunt Harden and then have Mitchell run 50 isos instead of all these failed pick-and-rolls.
