does anybody have a clip of the foul DJ did on gobert that looked like a clear path foul?

I wan't to post it.

rudy "offensive liability" gobert is currently the Jazz best offensive player as well as defensive, by miles. Where are the fools who keep saying hayward was the Jazz best player? rudy was always the best player and he always elevates everyone. Have to be fair tho to mitchel who is smack dab in the middle currently because he has a big role on offense and that role can often times hurt your ratings, but the cogs in the jazz machine are working well right now. They retooled after that horrendous Memphis game.

I really like these charts/graphs. Good info.
Matches what i feel like im seeing on the court as well.

I think Thabo is a dust off in case of emergency option imo. His defense wasn't great last year... it was okay, but he gets beat a lot off the dribble. He's still disruptive cuz that wingspan doe.

He's a good guy to get the juices going prior to the playoffs and think he could be more valuable as the game slows down and they allow more physicality. He gets away with more holding and such than our other guys.

Didn’t he play the 4 last year. Very few 4’s can beat him off the dribble

He did... but he got blown by at times... might have been on switches but his lateral movement wasn’t great. He was still an effective defender and his offense was better than expected. I think we kept him for vet experience and an injury fill in as well as his contract has value as trade fodder if need be.

Again still an effective defender but no longer world class and if his shot isnt on he doesn’t provide a ton of on court value. If he didn’t lose a step he’s still good but knee surgery at his age could take its toll.

The bench has played exceptionally well last night. And now it's about to improve with Thabo's return.

I thought Exum was THE difference maker against the Mavs. During the push in the 3rd and early 4th quarters, he put so much pressure on them. Scoring, but also collapsing the defense and making great reads. He is showing me a lot this season. If he makes any progress this season, we are going to scare the bejeezus out of folks come playoff time. Just stay healthy X.

Defensive highlights from the game. Wish people did more of these.
