Jeff Withey Needs To Stay

[Jazz and Utes]

Also crazy to think that Gobert averaged 2.3 bpg in 26 mpg, if he avgs 35 mpg does he avg close to 4 bpg?

Looked for myself, Gobert's OPP ATR % is 40.4 in 82 games played which is WAY higher than anyone else in the league.....Ibaka is at 40.8 but in 64 games

Favors' is what, 44%?

If there are 15 spots and 13 are set (at least 12 are, and I think Little Sap is a virtual lock for 13), I wouldn't mind the Jazz throwing one of the last 2 on him.

Him, Johnson or Cotton should get the last two and so far my vote (which counts for jack and ****) is for Whitey and Cotton.

Yes sir, 43.8% to be exact. For comparisons, Whitesides % is 46.5 and Boogies is 47% and DJordan = 48.5%.


Really impressive what our front office is putting together, with guys like Neto, Hayward and Hood on the perimeter and those guys on our back line defense I seriously don't see how we don't lead the league in pts allowed.

Very undervalued player. Jazz almost can't even take credit for that, but I am happy and not complaining.

Seems pretty respectable to me. Check out who's one notch below him in Opp FG% at the rim.

Great find. I'm officially in on Withey and think his agent should be fired. He should be on a team with a larger role. The Pellies are probably kicking themselves right now.

the crazier thing is opponents just stopped going in there. He lost a lot of block opportunities because teams just gave up trying.

Plus he's a competent midrang shooter and ft shooter

As far as his mid-range jumper: the jury is still waaaaaay out. He's proven very little offensively. If he had, there's no way he would have fallen into our laps.

He's white... it doesn't necessarily mean that he can shoot though. Honestly though, just catching the drop off passes cleanly and dunking them quickly is all I ask on offense. Grab and offensive rebound every now and again for a putback and don't set a bunch of illegal screens and he's gold.

Doesn't good ft shooting usually translate to having the ability to shoot 10-15 ft shots at the very least. He was available because he hasn't really had a chance to show what he can do

I agree to a point, but not all head coaches want their 7 footers taken jump shots which is something the Jazz don't believe in. Even Pleiss took an open 3 pointer vs the Lakers, granted he missed short, the coaching staff had no problem with it.

Is it safe to say that Mr. Go!bert is the man!?!?!
