I personally thought Carlisle didn't put Dojo in a good position to succeed from the beginning. Philly has a really good perimeter defense and Jrue is good defender on big PG's. Those two reason's spelled DOOMED for Dojo. Also,the last couple of games teams have picked up Jones near half court to stop his penetration as it seems Dojo likes to get a head of steam before barreling into the lane. Dojo w/o penetration is useless. It also exposes that he can't run the basic offense set of PnR. He lacks a quick first to get around the screen and no one is checking for his jumper, so as a defense you just cut off his passing lane and force the offense to go somewhere else.
