Game Thread Jan 17, 2021 6:00PM MT: Jazz at Nuggets

[Hekate]

Mitchell is trying to be special again and is taking himself out of the offense. That's 2 missed layups.

His first 2 buckets were within the offense but when he got settled in and had the ball in his hands, he made poor decisions.

Conley sometimes makes really questionable decisions

 

[Goodluckchuck]

This is looking like an early season game for Mitchell. Dribbling the air out of the ball every possession and not making anything. His decision making process is so slow.

Huh? He has 4 assists this half. Sounds like his decision making is just fine

 

[Utesnjazz]

That's an exaggeration.

1-7 for 2 points Mitchell
7-11 for 17 points Murray

plus Mitchell blowing 3-1 lead in the playoffs

 

[prodigy]

Murray still owns us. Welp

 

[KqWIN]

If the ball touches Mitchell's hands the possession is over. He takes 8+ seconds to do anything, and when he takes a shot he misses anyways.

Also, ****ing hilarious that Quin can't recognize how horrific of a matchup Royce guarding Murray is. Quin has the worst ability to adapt as a coach in the league.

Of course murray cant miss against us

Is is time for Q try something different? NO, LETS TRY THE SAME THING AND EXPECT A DIFFERENT OUTCOME

Bogy lookin good

So if Mitchell would just show up...

He's dominating the ball every possession - he damn well *better* have some assists.

His decision making is horrendous.

Assists does not necessarily mean good decision. Mitchell is tanking the offensive every time he touches it by dribbling out the shot clock. There is no ball movement, just Mitchell dribbling until he shoots or makes a pass to shot.

I have zero faith in us stopping Jamal Murray with our current lineup. Will Quin make 2nd half adjustments?

What the F! If not for Don we get swept. It was everyone not named Donovan that lost us that series.

 

[KqWIN]

This team is REALLY good if Mitchell doesn't tank the team down with his decisions. But tonight is one of those times where he's a massive anchor and can't get out of the way of others.

 

[Jazzinho]

I have counted 6 ofensive possesions where we did absolutely nothing in 23,5 seconds and had to shot a horrible 3. Why? Just Why?

 

[Hekate]

Mitchell's overall decision-making and 2 bonkers decisions back2back by Conley and we let them back in and gave them the lead.

 

[KqWIN]

One of these days, Mitchell will learn how to get out of his team's way and not drag the entire team down. These performances come way too often.

He doesn't have to play well every night. He has to not single handedly tank his team by dribbling the shot clock down every possession. If it's not your night, just stay out of the way and maybe play some defense instead. Mitchell's response to having off shooting nights is to dribble endlessly and cannibalize the offense.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Two things I would do--I would bring in a defensive specialist to guard Murray, and I would tell Mitchell to go downhill to the rim repeatedly until the Nuggets stop him from getting there. He's had three drives where he's had nearly a completely open lane, and he's only converted one of them.

This has to me Quin's motto.
