Yeah you definitely having been watching Utah if you think Jordan Clarkson is their #2 scorer :mjlol:

He's their 2nd most talented scorer on the roster. I don't know why you're acting like you're some sort of authority on the subject and ignoring facts. Not only were they the #1 defense in the league last year, but they rely on Clarkson. Bojan was the #2 scorer in the playoffs last year for them (18.1 PPG) but Clarkson was behind him by less than 1 point (17.5 PPG) and played less minutes than Bojan. And Bojan basically doesn't score at all off the bounce or iso situations.

He’s an inefficient scorer. Stop paying attention to the PPG and actually look at what’s happening on the floor.

Which is why they need more offensive help jackass :mjlol:

If the 2nd best scorer on your team is a spark plug 6th man whose an inefficient chucker, clearly Mitchell doesn't have enough offensive help which is why they fall short every postseason :dead:

Mitchell has one of the heaviest workloads year in and out & goes unnoticed

Mitchell needs more help on offense, but how many of those guys have they had the chance to scoop up? Not via the draft, not via free agency. I don't know how they land that dynamic forward they need.

This is true, they haven't had much of a chance for that I agree. Opportunities for willing help there are far and few, but it's definitely on the to-do list for them.

He's been mailing it in for years despite them having the #1 record last season?

:usure:

I swear some of y'all just like to post dumb shyt for the hell of it. Utah hasn't developed into anything more because they have roster/chemistry limitations, not because their cokehead looking ass coach has been going through the motions. It's more to the contrary. He's borderline maniacal with his approach to the game, and it's possibly one of the reasons why this playing group can't move forward because they're mentally worn down by his style of coaching.

I don't disagree with your take, but you can't really point to the Jazz like you do the Heat or Spurs in terms of having an eye for talent in the G league/draft and plugging them in where needed and turning them into bonifide players.

I refuse to believe the Spurs are the only organization who can turn non-lottery players consistently into plus players.

Edit: then again, royce oneale and joe ingles were those kinds of guys so :patrice:
