Predict the Rudy Gobert trade

[stitches]

An entire playoff series is not a small sample size to me. It literally is the ****ing playoffs where it matters most.

An entire playoff series is 13 possession! THIRTEEN! In 6 games. Lets say 80 possessions per game. 25% of 80 is 20. in 6 games - 120 possessions. Only 13 of them were against Gobert. You are an idiot if you are taking this sample over you know... the entirety of Gobert's career when determining if he's good or bad in isolation.

I was referring to the entirety of defensive stats in that comment not the isolation one.

I don't think he is trying to say Rudy is a bad defender. I just think he's trying to say Rudy is not some perfect, never one of our issues player y'all try to portray him as.

Rudy ain't perfect. And yes, some of our issues are his fault too.

Why iso anybody when they could just keep dribbling towards the paint, watch Rudy always come down, and then his player is wide freaking open after a pass or two?

It's funny how you guys get so upset when we run iso on offense because we don't run our "mixer". We don't run the mixer in the playoffs because it can be shut down due to our limited offensive weapons.

Then you brag on our success at stopping iso without admitting that the other team uses their "mixer" to abuse our unsuccessful defense.

Google what an X-out is and try to learn basic fundamental basketball terms like helping the helper.

Someone answer this for me please since you guys know everything.

Off-ball defense is a thing, you know(hopefully).

Yeah, we look like this quite a bit. Our wings and #6 being planted in the paint while wide open 3's are going up.

That wasn’t very nice.

What were you expecting?

Not if you watched the jazz this year it isn't.

Elizah Huge is learning that when you're dealing with tiny sample sizes, you get a lot of crazy results.

Like one of the most basic principles of statistics is that a small sample size isn't representative of anything.

Look... I just want to make "that's what she said jokes" when you talk about small sample sizes... I have nothing to add except you'd think these guys would be very familiar with the issues that come with dealing with tiny sample sizes.

Rudy is going no where

I hope this is the case. Not so certain anymore.

I'm not sure what to think on a potential Rudy trade. If we don't move him there is some risk an outsider marginalizes his role... I'm torn on Quin stepping down meaning Rudy is gone and it meaning he is not being traded and Quin saw no way forward because of lack of changes.

Quin mentioning Rudy in the presser may mean he sees Rudy being moved and so he's out... it could all mean nothing and it could be really just Quin is broken and needs some time to rest.

The real question... If Rudy is traded who will eat lunch with Donovan sometimes?
