It's not the market. It's simply our guys being looked down upon. Milwaukee isn't much of a market compared to SLC. But Giannis has received way more respect and recognition compared to DM and Rudy. Malone and Stockton were well respected amongst their peers, media and fans despite playing for the "small market" in Utah. DM and Rudy just gotta prove people wrong by playing better. I know we have played better as a team, but individually I know Rudy and DM have what it takes to bring their game to the next level. They just gotta show it to them.
Two-time and about to be three-time DPOY gets picked last. This isn't about Rudy IMO, it's about Utah.
