why does Quin have a knack for putting players in positions that accentuate their weaknesses, or at least don't maximise their strengths?
Rubio = seemingly is open half the night (surely this is something opposing coaches are happy with right?)
Favors = Is often standing in the corner pretending he is a floor spacer (yea yea I get it - sPaCiNg)
Allen = doesn't get to play because his defense isn't good enough (why was he drafted then if not to be a spark, gunner and shooter)
Exum = I just can't
Jae = allowed to take contested, step-back and off the dribble threes like he is the third splash brother
O'Neale = the 'point guard'
Mitchell = the best 34% volume 3pt shooter in the world
Burks = sits on the bench for extended periods seemingly because of shot variance (but then we all pretend it's cause his 'defense' has subsided)
Ingles = lock him in for 30+ minutes per night (every friggin night)
Quin is a basketball genius. I get it. But sometimes I think he is one of those overthinking type geniuses who has forgotten that the best and most successful game plan might actually involve factoring the players attributes (strengths and weaknesses) when determining the game plan and overall philosophy.
Having said all that - I think the Jazz will get home court. I just wonder if this team could unlock more if it was coached differently.
