More notes on this game · 38 All prospects Cameron Carr
1:32 My gripe with Carr is that he is extremely low IQ at times and a bad passer. Perfect example here. 2:18 Although more understandable than the turnover, there is no need to take a deep 3 with time to work with. 3:53 Good defensive effort here from Carr, even though he gives up the bucket. 4:51 Not a big deal as he is fighting a big here, but I've noticed Carr has been getting pushed around inside. 6:02 Carr has really nice defensive footwork. 6:12 While I understand he got hit here, this was not a super smart play by Carr. I really don't trust him with the ball in his hands. 11:50 Again, no need for this pass. First thing Carr does after checking in again. 12:31 I do really like Carr's shooting stroke, it's hard to guard. Really smooth off a nice off-ball action. 12:53 Maybe this is part of the defensive scheme, but no effort to fight over the screen here. Forces his teammate to make a tough closeout. 13:09 I'm really loving Carr's ability to move and get open off ball. Pass didn't make it but good play. 13:18 This is a foul 9 out of 10 times in the NBA. No need for this kind of play. 18:20 This wasn't his most awful shot, but still not a great one. Carr seems to rush into shots when the ball is in his hands. 18:46 Carr tries to create for himself here, but clearly didn't adapt to the help. Good on him for trying to make a play, but not much done here. 19:18 Again, Carr is excellent off the catch. This is truly where he is best, and he sets up so fast. 19:39 Carr gets caught ball watching and gives his man a putback. Not ideal. 26:14 Another play where Carr sees an oppurtunity but throws a bad pass. His passing is really off. 27:23 It's good to see Carr moving off the ball, but it's clear none of his teammates can consistently get him a good look off the catch during live play. 29:07 I don't know who's job it was to follow the open man, but Carr could have been that player, and he was not at all focused. 29:27 Once again, everyone knows what Carr is doing on-ball He gets the three this time, but this guy relies only on his high shot for creation. 30:14 Carr is heating up, and that jumper is looking really good when he's feeling it. However, once again there is no seperation, Carr just gets the ball and pulls up a 3 after getting close enough. 31:17 Carr gets stuck in no man's land after Yessoufou gambles on the steal, which is a tough situation, but Carr also mismanages the situation and doesn't commit. 33:35 Another bad pass. I don't see why Carr is looking for something extra. 33:51 Carr gets blindsided after the Odum miss and gives the Sun Devils another oppurtinity. Maybe it's not a lack of IQ, but awareness. 34:22 Although it is a miss, much better from Carr. Attacks the basket directly, and doesn't drive in headfirst. 37:32 Much better from Carr, doesn't force a 3 himself, and this time throwing a pass inside paid off. 37:57 Good shot and hustle from Carr. 39:22 Carr will have some gravity to him as a shooter, here he frees up Powell off the ball. 39:45 Carr once again fumbles a transition oppurtunity with his lack of bal handling and awareness. 40:41 Carr does a little too much to get free here, but not a massive mistake. 44:51 Carr once again out of position on the rebound, but it won't matter because the shot falls. 45:44 Again, Carr instantly looks to the 3 the moment he has to handle the ball. 59:56 Carr once again gets a good bucket off of a screen by attacking at the right angle. His tunnel vision was absent this play. 61:34 Carr trying to save his team. but forcing a bad shot, it seems he thinks he can shoot from anywhere. 62:40 Carr once again forcing a horrible shot, bad even accounting for his teammates' lack of scoring. 63:49 This time Carr learns and tries to attack a little bit more. His handle doesn't help but he draws a fould which is good. 65:09 Carr commits a silly foul and hurts his teams' chanced of winning here, all that was needed was a trap. 67:54 Once again desperation 3 for Carr, but I don't blame him this time. 73:04 Nice pump fake, there is a high chance he gets that call in the NBA.
