Cowherd basically rips Jazz.....

[TheStormofWar]

Don't need to listen to guess that Cowherd is a blistering idiot.

He is right about the Lakers working. They will be good. It is absurd to think otherwise.

I think the Jazz would win the series, but it would be tough.

What's Good in the west? The Cavs with a roster roughly as good as the Lakers won 50 games in the crappy east. I'd be surprised if the Lakers win that many in the west.

How are the rosters roughly the same?

I think the Lakers Roster is way better. I could go down the line and try to explain, but do I really have to? That Cavs Rosters was trash. Lakers have some really nice young and up and coming pieces. Why would anyone think they are comparative? Love was the best they had and he is extremely overrated. Id take any one of Kuzma, Ball, Ingram, or Rondo over him. Let alone having all four of those guys.

Ramona Shelbourne or whatever her name is on The Jump last week had the same issue, just can't get past a team not having the traditional 2-3 all stars being rated highly and basically said that we lucked out all year and that's the best the Jazz could do and would probably fall this year.

People still have no idea or can't comprehend how much Rudy = wins

Clownherd didn't even mention Rudy.

 

[FalseFlagg K]

Most half wits know he’s a good defender.

He wasn’t great his first year, somehow into his second he figured out how to move his feet better and use his long arms This dude is 3 years behind

he said
"rudy can't stay healthy ever"

lmao. Guy might be the biggest idiots i ever witnessed rambling.

rudy gobert took shots to the knee that have crippled players for the entire year, rudy gobert is actually rock solid. He took a huge shot to the knee from that miami jerkoff and then had favors a 250pound guy roll right into him, and he still managed to come back and win defensive player of the year.

 

[NUMBERICA]

In his big rant, he hardly dared to mention Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert. And I agree, a team with Lebron James would beat the Jazz without Gobert and Mitchell.

The Lakers surrounded Lebron with a bunch of guys who don't shoot 3's. That is the opposite of what Lebron needs around him. The Cavs were better set up to support what Lebron does best. Love is probably the best player on either roster not named Lebron, I'd not take him over those guys because they are younger with more upside, but he's the most proven and right now better player.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

I kinda hope more media personnel will come out against the Jazz, tbh. Worked last season.

Let’s reverse jinx and “no one believed in us” this season... I’m all in on this... keep the hate coming... Rudy’s soul gets stronger with each hater he consumes.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

There was a day when I liked listening to Colin... since he went to Fox he feels the need to be more Skip Bayless like to get attention.

I will never forgive him for besmirching the name of the deity Joe Ingles.

I dont know how you figure that. Kuzma absolutely shoots threes. Shot 37% as a rookie and projects to get better at it. Ingram shot 39% from three last year. Ball only shot 30% but even with his funky shot projects to be pretty good from three based off what he did in college and just got off to a bad start last year. KCP shot 38%. Hart shot 39%. Even Rondo isnt as bad as he is billed. He has averaged about 36% the last 3 years.

Not sure where you are getting they cant shoot the three.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's because they were 2nd to last in three point percentage and 20th in three pointers made for the season.

Calderon 46.4%
Korver 43.6%
Love 41.5%
Hill 41.5%
Hood 38.5%
JR Smith 37.5%

Maybe because the Cavs were simply better at shooting that the Lakers were. Those 6 guys individually all scare teams from 3 more than any of the Lakers you mentioned.

 

[gomretat]

I agree that this take is off base and Cowherd in general is a huge big market guy. That being said I often like his takes and his perspective. I am fine with he taking on the Jazz and hope the players hear it. Real respect only comes from one place and that is winning games. We are a young team with a lot to prove.

 

[Flc]

Someone tweet this to Donovan and Rudy. They'll feast on this.

Different Roster, Young players maturing. Lebrons gravity and passing ability open things up.

Calderon 46.4%
Korver 43.6%
Love 41.5%
Hill 41.5%
Hood 38.5%
JR Smith 37.5%

You said the Lakers dont shoot threes. They do. See also my response to Cy.

Posting player's three point percentage who dont even play, and/or who suck at every other facet of the game isnt a good point, a doesnt mean they are bettter players to put around Lebron.

Korver - has always sucked. I would never want him on my team. He doesn't help you win.

JR Smith - See game 1 of finals.

Hood - doesnt play

Calderon - lmao, are you kidding me?

Love - overrated, doesnt help you win

Hill - Not good either. He is being passed around for a reason. He hasnt done **** since playing for the Jazz and benefitting from the system.

Cool, they were the 2nd worst shooting team last year and they didnt add any shooting outside of rookies and Lebron. I doubt they will be in the top 15 of shooting percentage next year.

Because nothing changes and everything is exactly the same as last year
