Because I'm still peeved over the POR loss I'm posting this in here.
Lillard may have still willed POR to a win with how he was playing but for preaching defense I think a Snyder could've coached a much better game last night. All last night and all this season Mack hasn't been able to guard Lillard (or any quick guards for that matter) I understand with some of his games giving him a chance but it was obvious within minutes how POR was going to play him.
BUT even before Mack, POR was using Screens to get Exum off of Lillard and usually getting Diaw on him, which as much as some of us may love Boris everyone I think agrees he is the worst defender on the team. My point is POR went big in their starting lineup Quin should've either not started Diaw or subbed him quick and go big as well.
To me the Jazz didn't adjust, it was screens to get Boris on Lillard or isolation when Mack was "guarding" him, there is no scheme adjustment to be made that is a player substitute adjustment at that point.
Again Lillard very well may have still led POR to a win but the Jazz made it WAY too easy for him by playing Diaw and Mack so many minutes (who may be the 2 slowest footed defenders in the league at their positions).
