You're right. Your offensive "super-star" who shoots 80%+ from teh FT line should not be expected to make FT's in the clutch. Thanks.
I love the consistent messaging but this is closer to a @MeloTheJazzKiller post about teh Knicks winning a title than an actual real post. There are like 10 moments bigger than this one and it’s not close.Video and Shotcharts | Stats | NBA.com

Not enough people talking about this. Your franchise star in a Game 6 down 3 with 3 minutes to go misses a FT. He makes this and then Utah has the ball with the chance to win instead of Conley racing down the court into an unforced error.
This was the first domino that fell in the clutch that ruined the Jazz.
Eh, I'd disagree.
It worked. The Jazz got better looks and played a more competitive game down teh stretch than they have all year.
Rudy not coming out to close on DFS... one missed free throw ain't it... doesn't even win the game... if one of those 5 things change its a win. Stahp... u better than this.
At a historic rate even.
"From time to time" Donovan's clutch free throw stat was like 50% this season. He shot a lower % at the free throw line in the clutch than Rudy this year. But hey, this all hurts him so much. Even though he played an entire series of inefficiency, no defense, and then is entitled enough to say "ask me in a week" in regards to him demanding a trade. The dude is a self deluded joke. Should we look at his 3 point % this series? Brutal. He was horrendous. He's hid behind "points per game" long enough.
Under 20%
I think Andy Larsen had a stat about the Jazz futility from three in this series. This year the Stars were perhaps the worst GLeague there was and they had 15 players finish the season with a higher percentage from three than the Jazz in this playoff series. That is just pure suckage. The Quin apologists will be saying": Öh but he didn't shöot the ball for them."but he can devise a structure to discourage the players from taking them if they are that bad.
He had 6 points in the final 5 minutes. He got they key stop on Luka's last drive.
He didn't do enough ... Everyone could have done more but you love to blame Don even for Gobert's weaknesses
You're right, Rudy didn't have a great series, Rudy also isn't saying post game "ask me in a week" in regards to whether hes going to demand a trade. The lack of self awareness of how bad Donovan was and how much of this failure is on him, is laughable. He refuses to look in a mirror. Just like when he's asked about taking difficult/bad shots. The answer is never "I need to get better shots" its just that "I need to make those shots, I wouldn't change them no matter how difficult or bad of looks they were".
I hear what you are saying but I believe the locker is divided because of Rudy. I don't believe most of his teammates like him or agree with his opinion. Again I'm saying I don't believe we will be successful keeping them both
