RIFT IN JAZZ LOCKER ROOM

[Jazzmix]

I agree that Rudy is not worth a supermax and he is limited on offense. I remeber that first embarrassing Houston game this season when on the first 3 possessions in the row they tried to feed Rudy (you could see that was supposed to be a game plan since Rockets were playing super small) and he couldn't do a ****. Yes, there are moments when he is open and they miss him but I don't think he is entitled to bitch about it because his hands don't exactly inspire confidence in the passer. And I do believe that Rudy can be difficult teammate just by observing his reactions. I don't like how he throws tantrums when the referees don't buy his flopping. I can't say crying in public about the allstar snub was a sign of being mature and self confident (although I hated people like Draymond laughing at it).
But still he is a great player and our whole defense system is not just based on him, it's him in person, we just let him do 90% of the job now. If he goes away it will take much more than one move to rebuild our D. I can see us dropping to Wizzards or Knicks level of defensive rating if he goes away. So in general we are screwed because the puzzle which was already difficult to put together with players limitations, not fitting together and contracts/cap space/assets has now become even more screwed with that new conflict..

Part of me blames Quin in all this. Blame is a bit strong but this **** just doesn’t happen out of nowhere. If Rudy was taking to it too far with corona nonsense in the locker room, he should’ve said something. If Quin has put Rudy up onto this sort of pedestal, I could see others resenting him a bit. I don’t know. ****. Happy Easter, everyone.

Is there video of Donovan putting his mouth on a water bottle and then dumping on players after a celebration? Did it happen in NY, in Boston and in Detroit?

rot always starts from the top. I can’t believe Quin hasn’t gotten them in together to sort **** out even before the virus stuff

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but ESPN700 is not affiliated with the LHM group.

Nope but Spence Checketts has connections out the wazoo with them.

Before 02/01/2020 :
Gobert-Mitchell : 24min/G
Gobert-Mitchell : OFFRTG 115.3 ; DEFRTG 103.2
Mitchell : 19.9 FGA/45.9FG%/30.4USG%
Gobert : 8.6 FGA/68.7FG%/16.8USG%

After 02/01/2020 :
Gobert-Mitchell : 32min/G
Gobert-Mitchell : OFFRTG 108.9 ; DEFRTG 116.6
Mitchell : 18.9 FGA/44.2FG%/30.6USG%
Gobert : 6.5 FGA/72.1FG%/13.8USG%

Clearly, it seemed to coincide with Mike Conley coming back.

So a city which just won their first title ever last summer doesn't seem to show a whole lot of Spida stuff? Weird....

I live in Nashville, and I know 3 guys under 20 years old who bought his shoes.

I mean they are on sale now and again, I've never seen anyone wearing them at the YMCA or other rec gyms I played ball at before covid, even walking the streets never noticed any. Regardless of championships that is a fact from my observations.

That is a very revealing statistic. I think it also has to do with Joe playing those eight minutes when they not out there together. I've been saying it for a long time, and CJ even longer. Conley is the problem.

Shoes always go on sale. Dames shoes are on sale too. Donovan’s stuff does sell well. Most colorways have sold or nearly sold out and his underwear and socks are basically sold out as well. Plenty of people buy his stuff.

My God, part of me would like to see Rudy leave just so dumbasses like you can cry about missing the playoffs for the next 5 years. This is the same kind of trash that people were talking back when Rudy got hurt and Utah was a completely different team without him. How in the **** does anyone not remember that? Or the time some dumbasses thought Gordon Haywood was the best player on the team and Utah was going to fall apart without him. Some people never learn.

Rudy is by far the most important aspect of Utah winning since he took over for Kantcer. Please don't make anymore comments about how many games you've watched this year, as you're obviously having a hard time seeing with your head shoved so far up your ***.

We would have been terrible after Hayward left if we didn’t trade up for Mitchell. Don’t fool yourself.

There’s still a huge false dichotomy out there regarding DWill vs. Sloan that completely obscured who was really at fault: Greg and KOC. If this Rudy/Donovan thing is really going to become an issue, I’ll lay a decent sized portion of the blame at the feet of the FO.
