Thursday night wasn’t a one-time deal. Despite averaging around nine minutes and shooting nearly 58% from the field in fourth quarters this season, Mobley is averaging just 4.0 points and getting 2.6 shot attempts.
“That can’t happen,” All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell said following. “That starts with myself and Darius . We’ve got to get Ev the ball. He was the leader the whole game offensively and he can’t finish the game with 31 points after three quarters. That’s on us.
But there was even more focus on it versus Denver, which ranks 25th in points in the paint allowed and 28th in defensive field goal percentage at the rim. The Nuggets were also forced to start 6-foot-8 Vlatko Cancar at power forward in place of Gordon, who couldn’t play because of a rib injury.Bickerstaff implored his guys to attack the paint with ferocity and persistence. They did.
Mobley went just 0 of 2 from the field. His first miss was at the 10:49 mark of the fourth -- a bricked 10-foot floater. The only other attempt came more than seven minutes later -- an offensive rebound tip-in try that Mobley couldn’t get to drop. How is it possible that this 7-foot unicorn, who is unfazed in the biggest moments and even earned the nickname “Fourth Quarter Ev” because of his late-game success at various points this season , keeps getting ignored?
