The game set a new season-high for free throws in a game this year — but the Jazz came out of it with a win anyway. On Joe Ingles' defense, three players who have been consistent for the Jazz this season, and fouling too much.
Guard Joe Ingles, left, argues a call with referee John Butler as the Utah Jazz play the Dallas Mavericks at Vivint Arena Saturday, Dec. 25, 2021.Three thoughts on the Utah Jazz’s 120-116 win over the Dallas Mavericks from Salt Lake Tribune Jazz beat writer Andy Larsen.The NBA had done really well this season in making games watchable — the highest total in a game in free throws before tonight was 68. But tonight’s ref crew was absolutely bonkers; making wild calls all game long.
Now, while the refs deserve a lot of criticism, so do the Jazz. They played their part in sending the Mavs to the line frequently. Like, this transition foul by Donovan Mitchell: if he’s going to intentionally foul like this, it can’t be at the basket against a good free-throw shooter. He either has to foul earlier or defend the chance straight up.
Joe, Rudy Gobert has to get back out to defend Kristaps Porzingis on the pick-and-pop. Therefore, it is pretty imperative that you get between your guy and the basket when given the opportunity to do so.
