Good!

Sensible decision. No need to rush, and the role he would have played wouldn't have done anything to help his development anyway. Better off continuing to work on his NBA skills and conditioning.

I told you guys earlier that he wasn't healing as fast as they'd like

Completely inaccurate, but thanks anyway.

Great decision. Seems like a lot of Jazz fans wanted to see him play when we were discussing about a month ago but I thought participating was an awful idea.
 
How can an NBA team not allow their international players to play in Olympics but let their USA players participate?
Seems unfair. Seems like other countries would protest.

Yes, me too. Another interpretation might be that the Jazz are confident enough in his recovery to not encourage him to get the work in with the Olympic team (and it's attendant injury risk). But who knows. It's just as likely that it means nothing at all about the recovery.

They have invested a lot of time and a #5 draft pick on him. I'm sure if he wasn't injured the last time he was playing with his national team then they wouldn't care. Rudy can play with France if he wants but he is sitting this out on his own.

I thought he should sit it out too in that thread
 
I still want to see him in SL though
