Don/Rudy ESPN Article

[DasJazz]

Remember when we were up 25 in game 5 of the OKC series and then Gobert picked up his 5th foul and we lost?.......Your definition of “dominate” is skewed. He’s been vital to winning as well and yes so has Donovan. Also we all support him, but asking for him to be open and honest isn’t an issue.

How about when Rudy can do something, anything, other than dunk on the offensive end then we can call him dominant. Rudy's own perception of his skills on that end of the floor are flawed to say the least. He shouldn't be demanding the ball when he can't do anything useful with it other than dunk in most cases and can barely catch the damned ball to begin with.

He sets screens like a mofo... its valuable and hard... it matters too.

Also, people used to argue all Shaq could do was dunk... the dunk is the best shot in basketball... if we can get more dunks we should.

Rudy's offensive rating has always been really high. He does a lot on that end to make things work. He has his flaws and is narrow with his skill set for sure, but if you are a heart surgeon you don't have to know how to treat ingrown toenails ya know.

Trade them both for two top three picks in 2021.

Tempted to go literal on this analogy.

Agreed except Rudy's chief complaint is that he wants the ball to score. He does not have that ability other than to dunk.

 

[bigmike]

Not worried about any of this. 0%.

I thought this analogy might tickle your fancy. You love you some analogies.

BTW ingrown toenails are midrange shots for sure... right?

Yes and no... he wants them to throw the lob or hit him on the dive more. There are a lot of times when DM or Mike miss him only to shoot a ****** floater or other midrange garbage.

Joe is the best at passing to Rudy... Joe started when Mike was out... Joe and Rudy both benefitted. Rudy was up over 17pts a game when Joe was starting without Mike. Rest of the season he averaged 13ish... He just wants them to throw it one or two more times a game imo. He knows he isn't a 20 ppg guy.
