Before anyone bites my head off, hear me out...

I used to be the biggest Gobert fan. Great defensive presence, passion, etc. Now that he was injured for a couple games and back, you can really see how much better the jazz play without him on the floor.

While he was injured the jazz were scoring in triple digits every night and blowing teams away by 15+ points, since he has been back we've been losing.

It's so clear to see. When he's in the game, the jazz struggle offesnively, he's so big that he clogs the middle. when he has the ball he has no finess and zero fundamental skills for a big man. without him the offense seems fluid, efficient, fast, fun to watch. with him in the game slows down, these days the nba doesn't use big man like when we had malone and mark eaton.

i really also saw favors shine at center while gobert was out. what do you all think? i know we could have beat the past 3 teams if gobert was out, i know it.

thanks fellow jazz brothers and sisters. Go Jazz

Take Favors out of those games we won and put in Gobert, then add in favors with Gobert and u get the same drop off. We played a cupcake schedule with Gobert out and a tough three games when he came back

You are over simplifying the issue. This is not a Gobert or Favors thing. Gobert, Favors and Rubio have no business being on the court at the same time. They crush spacing and shooting. Teams can clog the paint and we cannot over come it. Gobert does need a better paint game to some degree. But he also gets a lot of dunks, offensive rebounds and is elite in screen assists.

Also as previously mentioned, the Jazz are playing a horrendously difficult schedule in December, Which is when Gobert happened to come back. It is going to continue. Still have Cavs x 2, Thunder x 2, Nuggets, Warriors, Celtics, Spurs, Warriors and Rockets.

you guys are acting like dicks.

He stated his opinion. You may rebuttal with more than just a load of pish. I think he has a point to some degree, but I don't think it's rudy's fault.

I don't think getting rid of or trading gobert fixed any of our problems. He does lack fundamentals on offense that are essential for a big man but he changes the game on defense.

The problem is RUBIO in the same lineup as gobert. Rubio can't shoot which hurts rudy's presence down low because to guard rubio is to let him jackup a shot. It's as good as a turnover. You can behind screens because rubio can't shoot for **** anyway.
 
Gobert is like an ace in a deck of cards. He's clearly the best card the Jazz have. However, I do question what other cards have been dealt to the Jazz. Maybe they have a straight without Gobert and don't need the ace.

I'd rather have Gobert than Favors. Those who are making fun of the OP or giving him **** are the people that deny reality and take it personal. The Jazz do not work with Favors and Gobert. In the small sample size we've seen, they work better with just Favors. That's not an opinion. If it upsets your feelings or if you think I'm wrong, you literally deny reality. Get over yourselves.
