At this point it's clear that Dyson is a better on ball defender than Herb. Herb is better at team/help defense.

It's crystal clear. Dyson dominated Ja in the 2nd quarter.
With Herb absolutely unable to stop Ja, there was zero reason that Willie should have kept Herb on the floor late in the game. Either sub in Dyson to actually frustrate Ja, or put Trey in and match the Grizzlies' scoring.

Herb kept running Ja off the 3 point line where he was dominating in the paint. Should have had the exact opposite strategy. This loss was ok Willies coaching and Herbs bad night. Love Herb but you got to know personnel. Ja was way off on all his 3s and was getting a foul or a bucket every time he drove

If Herb had the flu, then what I wrote above about him may be unfair.

Absolutely. If Herb was suffering effects from the flu, leaving him out there to guard Ja (particularly given the way the refs were calling the game), rather than Dyson was another terrible coaching decision from Willie.

And that is 100% on Zion, not Herb. He’s been pretty terrible over the last two weeks

It's possible that Herb was feeling the initial effects of the flu without Willie knowing.
