Most likely this is all overblown like the media does, but the one angle I haven't seen mentioned is Quin. He's a huge Rudy guy.
SI, Chams, and Tony Jones reporting bad Jazz news is as real as it gets.Most likely this is all overblown like the media does, but the one angle I haven't seen mentioned is Quin. He's a huge Rudy guy.
RIP Rudy. You're the best thing that happened to this organization in decades. Gonna miss having real people on the team whose first, second, and third priorities are making winning basketball plays.
Where you getting this from?Can’t believe a 2x DPOY would let his defensive game struggle because he’s not getting enough touches on offense.

Common knowledge? That's just your opinion man! Rudy has been as dominate as ever.
I have to say I agree. I have seen quite a few games in which Rudy has allowed his man to get easy baskets inside without even challenging the shot. It may be more unconscious, that is, he's pissed and at times rightly so because guys are missing him when he's wide open inside, so it affects his effort.Lol his priorities have been "me" first. Can’t believe a 2x DPOY would let his defensive game struggle because he’s not getting enough touches on offense. Especially when he can’t catch the ball.
Thank youYou need to do much more jogging, I don't like your podcasts either.
This is the right way to look at it.Still not worried about it. They obviously arent friends, so they arent going to link up while they are quaranting. It's strictly a business relationship and thats fine.
This is the right way to look at it.
They are never going to be buddy buddy, but the hope is they can still work together and be fine
If the Jazz want to keep Rudy they may be in the drivers seat to do so for a couple of reasonsRealistically though we definitely shouldn’t max Rudy. We should probably look at getting something for him before he leaves in FA. Only way he stays is if he gives us a friendly discount. I would think.
If the Jazz want to keep Rudy they may be in the drivers seat to do so for a couple of reasons
1. Class of 2021 is all-time deep. The teams that have the outright cap space are going to be fixated on people like Giannis and Kawhi and Paul George. As good as Rudy is, he's a tier 2 free agent in that class
2. Who else is committing 30 percent of their cap to Rudy? He has more value to the Jazz than he does to the rest of the league. The Jazz have built their entire scheme around Rudy defensively. They play a unique style. Who else is willing to do that?
3. There may not be cap space. The economy is shut down and that may affect NBA finance for this summer and next summer
We were definitely pressed on our many sources.Everything is still so vague. I haven't heard one thing said by either of them, confirming this. Until I do, I will be skeptical that it's as bad as the media is painting this. So, far we're only seeing sources WITHOUT attribution, which if I were an editor, I wouldn't like and I'd press my reporter to identify the source or not print it.
not sure. But I think the Jazz want to pay him a lot of money, without paying him 35 percent of the capWill Rudy give us a team friendly deal?

"The Jazz have already begun working on the Mitchell-Gobert relationship, but sources say Mitchell remains reluctant to fix what might have been broken."
“It doesn’t appear salvageable,” one source with knowledge of the situation said.
If Donovan is unwilling to burry the hatchet and move on then he's not the person he's perceived to be. If we end up having to trade Rudy because of this I will never feel the same about Donovan ever again.
Starting and relying are two different things. Gasol isnt a traditional center due to his complete skill set and range. Cleveland started Thompson who isn't traditional at all. GS started Bogut, but sat him for Iggy down the stretch. They didn't even have a true center for their 2nd title.The Warriors started a traditional center every year they won a title. So did the Cavs. So did the Raptors.
