    I like them both individually but not together. They don't pass enough on a consistent basis, both are ball dominant and neither plays good defense. You can hide one but not two. Their defense puts so much pressure on the rest of the team and their constant dribbling x2 takes away from any rhythm anyone else might have.

    I don't think it's a coincidence their biggest win in decades was when one of them was out against the World Champion Suns.

    ...they are legit terrible, so many of them looked out of sync and clueless as to what they were supposed to be doing -- that Portland Zumba class halftime show was more coordinated than these Jazz Dancers :breakdance:

    Why people always trying to sell people on Utah drafting the next Lillard?
    First it was Burk, now it's Mitchell.

    For some reason I think our bench was better with Crabbe instead of Pat

    Nah, Dame has done fine on D on his last 3.... but CJ always sucks on defense. He doesn't care. I like people that at least care about their defense (Dame)

    Pat and Cj are by far our worst defensive players. Lillard's defense continues to look pretty darn good.

    Well, in any case, it's 17 million dollars less expensive.
