RIFT IN JAZZ LOCKER ROOM

This is the most bleeped up thread I have seen on here in a long, long time. Move on. Let the players work it out themselves. They are going to try and that is good news.

He said weeks ago on Good Morning America that he was upset with Gobert, cooled off but he's good now. Since then, he avoided the conversation so everyone could move on. He didn't pile on Rudy for Rudy's stupid actions.

What else is he supposed to do? Man you entitled judgmental guys annoy the piss out of me. Rudy finally came out and addressed it after weeks of speculation. A month after Donovan on GMA. Rudy buried the story. Move the **** on.

This question will NEVER end until he publicly answers it. He can wait until the whole next season starts, the first question he will be asked is about Rudy.

Might as well get it over with now in the media

Oh bull man. The most selfish thing he can do is this to his teammates. This is certainly what Mike wants to be answering isn’t it.



EVERYONE is waiting for him to say something. Here. Nationally. Everyone. You created it Donovan. Now address it.

Agree. Conley and others should not have to be stuck in the middle and answering these awkward questions. Mitchell could squash this even if it was simply for media purposes.
 
Idk the more I watch Don on his live feeds the more I think this will work for the short term, but I honestly get the feeling Donovan wants more input on what happens with the franchise moving forward. I honestly think part of this is him not wanting to attach his prime to a super-maxed Rudy which is honestly a reasonable worry in my opinion. On his lives Donovan is still very positive in regards to being with the Jazz and in Utah. I've seen him say several times he's happy here. I do think he wants more power within the organization going forward, which is fine, he's earned some say in what happens going forward. In regards to Rudy, I think their relationship is still pretty strained. They'll play together, but I don't think it's going to last long term. I wish he would say something, and eventually he's going to have to, but right now I feel like he, and the Jazz are just wanting to stay silent and let everything die down and deal with it behind the scenes. It is what it is. Donovan is 23, hopefully he can grow from this and become a better leader, I'm sure he doesn't love how it's went.

I never think having players "have more power in the organization" is "fine."

If Donovan wants to be a GM/Player then I hope he finds a team that lets him do that and I hope that team is not the Utah Jazz.

It's already bad enough for teams when the owner wants to be a 2nd GM. The NBA doesn't need players "playing" GM.

A player should by definition not be able to see the forest for the trees because players should be focused on the trees and GMs should be focused on the forest.

Your franchise player having some say in the direction of the organization is okay. Doesn’t mean you listen to everything or do everything the guy says but having a good working relationship with your franchise player is fine. You see it with Dame in Portland as well. He doesn’t control things but he has good contact and input with the front office. It’s fine for a guy to want to have his input heard.
