That entire team has been away shyt for years now yet no one is said a word as they don’t care about Utah. I also never said I expected him to be the best perimeter defender, so I don’t get where you got that comment.

You don’t have to be All Defensive team, but at least be average enough not to be a complete liability on the floor. I’ve said about Jokic and KAT and I will say it about Mitchell as well. That applies to other guys on his team as well who Gobert has been covering for on defense for years now.

We give other guys shyt as well for their shortcomings, so Mitchell shouldn’t be the exception.
how is donovan a liability on the floor :unimpressed: lets remember we're talking about a winning team that's performing well enough on both ends. the liability talk doesn't apply. he's not cole anthony ffs. you're asking for rare shyt whether you're recognizing that or not.

you gotta stretch and do backflips to say that mitchell's defense is anything other what the rest of those guys offer on the perimeter out there. its acceptable to someone especially when the effort has been there before. just like how its acceptable for them to not even look at gobert under the rim. just like its acceptable those other bums get major minutes knowing their value added is limited at best.

when it comes down to it, ALL the first indicators of a coaching problem - or a coach reaching his plateau with a team - go out the window when its convenient. teams have made deeper runs than utah and felt the need for a coaching change. this isn't some rare, uncomfortable line of thinking :dead:

Again which is why Snyder is more than likely getting the boot after this season, but it still isn’t going solve the fundamental problem this team. It’s a combination of issues and everyone on that team and organization deserves blame for what’s transpiring.

You better believe that other teams around the league are calling for his services the moment he’s fired including yours as well.

I never made the argument. You felt a certain way about what I said rushing in to defend Mitchell. We give other players shyt and he isn’t the exception :yeshrug:

I don’t play favorites when it comes to criticism.
i felt a certain way about what? you going in circles looking for new reasons to keep the circle going? lol

at first i thought you do this shyt to past time but you really don't even see yourself doing it :pachaha: yeah yeah - lets bring up mitchell's lack of enthusiasm without acknowledging the underlying cause then double right back. that way it still looks like im not seen as being immediately obtuse.

Completely done. They’re 2 games behind the Spurs - who hold a tiebreaker over them - with 4 games remaining. They need to win out and the Spurs to lose out to make the play in tournament

And you know he’s gonna come out with some “sorry laker nation we’ll be back better next year” bs tweet

Once I read he only had to play 3 more games to be eligible for the scoring title I already knew what time it was. He’s gonna play the OKC and GS games to qualify and call it a season.

Not trying to throw the sport under the bus at all, but that is probably one of the worst stretches of basketball I've ever seen teams play. Completely objective.

The fact that the announcer pointed out that was the second time Robinson got hit in the head with the ball that game:mjlol:. That game must've been all kinds of bad.
