What's new

Gobert should start

You bench him, you lose him. He is an emotional person with "Eastern" mentality.
Favors + Gobert should start sooner or later but gotta think about business and future cap flexibility here.
Kanter probably won't be a starter on this team. Either trade Kanter or resign him to a reasonable and tradable contract. You harm both these options by benching him at this point.

Then we lose him. There is zero reason to screw with Rudy at this point. None. He is better, he is younger, he has earned the position, Every other starter would rather have him starting. Kanter is not the future of the Jazz at Center so if that is going to be a problem, might as well suss that out now. If Kanter plays for the Jazz long term it will be off he bench unless somebody is hurt. You never have a dollar waiting on a dime. I can't see how this is even arguable. Additionally, Kanter's number will only get better off the bench and we kinda NEED him there at this point, because our bench is terrible. If this is a problem with Kanter, then screw him, quite frankly, he hasn't earned the right to be a diva.

If I am Kanter, when I come back I want to prove "I" am the one who should play along Rudy in the future. The fight is now, if he is a competitor, he wants to make Favors the odd man out, because Gobert is becoming a virtual cornerstone already.

Favors is a true bad ***. No way he is losing his job to kanter.
 
I think what the baby is trying to say is he wants a cookie.

^the funny thing is, this guy is ****ing serious right now.


(This thread is definitely not evidence that I wanted to tarde Kanter, though, amiright gais?)
