Gobert Makes Conference Finals Before Mitchell
- Thread starter Saint Cy of JFC
- Start date
The most insane thing is that he is at this stat after not playing in the 40 point blowout where all starters were +30-40
Oh shut the duck up. You have been one of the most vocal Rudy haters. Don't play both sides for Twitter likes. Pathetic
Fascinating concept, mine is strictly decorative and a poor vista it presents....
Gobert has perenial MVP candidate in Anthony Edwards + KAT
Don has... himself.
Did I get that right?
Don has... himself.

Why is “perennial MVP candidate Edwards and KAT” only mentioned in hindsight. Why wasn’t it mentioned before? And why was it everyone was talking **** about those two being put with Rudy when everyone said Minnesota would suck, but then when they win now it’s “perennial MVP candidate + KAT”?
Don has three top 5 picks on his roster..... (Two legitimate ones if you want to take Okoro out)
Rudy just elevates his teammates better, even those who play a similar position. Don takes away from Garland. Rudy adds to Reid/KAT.
Also I don't think Edwards has had a single top 5 finish in MVP voting.
The narrative initially goes:
1. Rudy sucks and won’t elevate anything.
2. Especially Minnesota because Minnesota sucks and is a loser franchise.
Then when this falls apart, do people respond with recognizing that maybe Rudy was good? No, they double down on the part of their opinion above that was emotionally charged and adapt as follows:
1. Rudy sucks.
2. Minnesota is awesome despite Rudy!
YoungJefe did this recently by going from “Minnesota is a fringe playoff team” to Rudy’s playoff success due to being surrounded by “a god squad.”
The narrative around Rudy’s team seems to change based around which view allows people to continue with their belief in Rudy sucking. Everything else is pliable.
I have never rooted for any non-Jazz player to win a championship as much as I'm rooting for Rudy. Tons of people need shutting up and championship is not the be-all and end all, but just as it happens the most annoying ones actually believe that so... I really hope Minny wins it all this year.
