Not really.
I mean, his ability to play point was rooted in his drive and kick ability which is going to default to racking up more assist/potential assist, but I never got the feeling like he would hold onto the ball just for that to happen. Actually think him doing that would have been more of a positive. Too often the Jazz's offenes with THT/Sexton or THT/Clarkson amounted to passing the ball back and forth until someone got stuck with a grenade. Part of what has made Dunn effective is that he is holding onto the ball, making a move, then giving it up to a guy who is in position to score.
Its either power dunk or floater. Nothing else. Very weird
Not in the modern game.
With Dunn we switch our coverage from Man to Zone to Man within the same play. Only a Lebron or a Kawhid can beat that.
It also helps that the offense is functioning at a much higher rate so you can more easily set your defense for those kinds of things. If you're constantly having to defend transition it makes life very hard on your D (which ws the primary driver IMO of the bad early season defense).
If you go back they signed him and Frank Jackson to 10 days at the same time. Dunn got some run and Jackson is playing in France now.
I sure did. I also noticed that the two of them spent more time chatting about Redick's stats and Lauri's army service than the actual game.
JJ was a bit of fresh air when he started, but he has gotten a bit annoying.
I have been bitching about the opposite lol.
