Gross.

I don't remember what thread it was so I can't dig it up... but someone posted a couple days ago about the jazz making it look like DM would play all week but pull the plug at the last minute to throw the Grizz or Warriors off for game one. Now that that happened, everyone is pissed.....?

Well ya.
If you posted that a couple days ago I would say that it's a stupid thing to do too then.

For you guys who bashing Favors and think Rudy won matchup vs JV. Favors clearly outplayed JV while Rudy struggled a lot.

Only one person was bashing favors lol and it's the same person that bashes favors every game no matter what.

Literally every other poster praised favors all game.

They better take Donovan off the runway and let him play some ball.

Well now he’s gonna have to play at full intensity so that can eat my whole ***. THAT is ratcheting up the risk.

REALLY rough night for Clarkson: 5/16, 0/8 from 3 and 4 turnovers.

jazz pct to advance dropped from 95 to 84%. I guess if they’re going to lay an egg, may as well be game one?

Umm. No. Game 3 or 4.

From Donovan's instagram story:

I don’t like Rudy’s answer to that question any more than I like the decision to sit Donovan.

What’s the controversy here?

What’s the controversy here?

There really isn’t one, I just wish Rudy didn’t get “thrown off” so easily. I want to believe this team can win a championship, but my honest opinion is that they are just a bit too soft and whiney for me to take them seriously as contenders.

But this is really on the medical staff. If they had just put Donovan on the injury report yesterday, there’s no potential anyone gets “thrown off.” **** those people.

Ehh. Sounds like they were preparing with him and had to scrap their game plan + being rattled.

But yeah, this organization is *incredibly* incompetent at times. Far more often than I’m willing to write off.

I would go all in on defense. Gobert and Favors a lot more minutes together. Take away the rim and the Grizz have no offense.

I would assume no Mitchell for any games. He's either not in touch with his body, or the medical staff screwed up, or this is mind/heart drama stuff trying to fingerpoint (Kawid Leonard crap) not being a man.
