JAZZ defensive mistakes vs. ROCKETS | January 20, 2024

The Jazz are switching so why is John Collins not up get up and guard Dylan Brooks you have help right there with Colin ston Lowry marinin underneath why are you waiting to switch Colin seon no no no I I got to be seeing ball and man underneath the

Three-point line seeing both in the gaps you got your back to the ball going above the three-point line easily beat back door easily it’s never okay for Al in s goon to be standing on the block with space I’m over there getting him out now getting him out now getting him

Out now I got to have Insight now he’s blocking you out so okay so you give up one offensive rebound now could you box how about o abaji how about Keon George could someone box out ever the Jazz doing this is being poorly coached if o o abaji goes to double

That’s it all right then Jordan Clark’s everybody else rotates look how many people go to the ball you got three people going you got four people guarding the ball no rotating out of that you what a disaster this Jazz zone is what’s Clarkson doing take the wing walker

Kessler you got to guard the paint all right keontay George you got someone in the middle of the Zone oen got to take the corner so this ball gets swung one time look at you got Clarkson and Walker Kessler both guarding ER both guarding no one then you got two people guarding

The middle of the Zone nice Zone Walker Kessler to do not need help here nor is Kelly oin helping so just get out just look how long you’re standing here for and then just and then instead of getting out you leave your feet and gamble the same thing with John Collins

It’s never okay for Alin sangon to be in the paint I can’t have I gotta be getting him out get him out get him out get him out again what happens you don’t touch him so now he’s boxing you out easy offensive board and put back the transition defense in the second

Half was atrocious you’re Walker Kessler you’re not getting to the ball get back and get in help get back and get in help get and Chris Dunn you gotta play up on the ball Kessler should be in help right now but Chris Dunn just waiting and

Waiting to guard s goon he’s not beating you off the dribble and now Kessler’s finally just jogging to the paint now guarding no one whoa again in transition do the Jazz understand halfcourt matchups don’t mean any thing you get cross matched all the time Walker Kessler’s cross matched on Van v good

Vono takes zon you’re trying to match up in the half court while van Le has the ball not gonna work more bad transition defense what’s Colin seon doing here get back back back why are you taking yourself out of the play here you should be guarding the

Ball so markting can get the Whitmore but now if you’re font you got to Sprint back and get to Whitmore I I can’t walk that more more more terrible transition Defense John Collins stop guarding the ball just get back and be ready to guard Jordan Clarkson same thing back look at

This you got Collins gambling towards the ball what even is Clarkson doing and Van fet’s getting by both Kelly oen again you’re a big man box out box out the second time no box out easy offensive board Rockets with another shot so the Jazz don’t double

Zenon’s pretty deep in the post here I could double and rotate but if you’re Kessler and there’s no double coming there can’t be space I mean alpr zenon’s one step From the Block I gotta get up now get low and battle like you’re waiting for sangon so he’s getting

Inside the block now because you’re waiting for him and good night if Colin saxon’s going under Kelly you gotta Jam the screener to make sure Colin seon can get under in time he’s going Clank right into the screen because you’re not jamming the screener so now you’re gonna be caught in no man

Colin Saxton’s gonna want to ice this screen but you’re in the way of Walker Kessler being able to get underneath and Ice the screen so now Fred Bley just walking in the lane icing a screen means he stays to the sideline not gets wide open in the paint Albert zenun picks his

Dribble up here what get back why zaji everyone get back to the three-point line there’s nothing else you’re in stuck in no man’s land so now you’re going to be coming uphill at the end of the shot clock as cam Whitmore is getting downhill so you’re going to be

Off B you’re not going to be ready to slide your feet but I still got to be up I have help right there Lowry marinin in help it’s a late clock situation and you’re back pedaling do the Jazz ever work on transition defense ever you got to communicate either Clarkson you’re

Taking Jabari Smith and I’m saying it so Walker Kessler knows to take Zenon or Walker Kessler takes Jabari Smith you take Zenon say something it’s just a bunch of people trotting to Nowhere if Colin sexon wasn’t guarding half court for absolutely no reason was underneath the three-point L us back to the

Baseline you’d want to hedge this screen but okay you’re going to ice it Simone vanto is icing the screen clearly Walker Kessler’s got to get up you gotta keep cam Whitmore towards the sideline icing a screen does not mean cam Whitmore walks to the rim H I’m pretty sure that’s not how it

Works Rockets run the same play backto back possessions and it’s some it’s a down screen Walker Kessler get a attached in show and lry Marin’s chasing over the top instead you’re nowhere to be found lry Marin’s going up the gut Jabari can’t guard that way ever let’s

Go over all the things the Jazz have no idea how to do icing a screen anything that has to do with transition defense and guarding down screens so easy you got to get attached if you’re Kessler and show Lowry marinan goes over the top this time but if you’re not showing he’s

Curling right off this you give them no time to get over the screen if you’re Simone F Teo you get stuck on sangun in the perimeter first of all he’s about to lower his shoulder into you I got to be the one to make first Contact and then of course I want

Him coming to the middle of the floor where Walker Kessler standing waiting to help what do you play off let him spin away from you Baseline and that was awful now it’s Walker Kessler’s turn zons catching is in the high post I’m up there’s no space I’m up battling for

Position and again I’d want him coming to the middle of the floor but you’re playing off and letting him go away from the middle of the floor just off
