Rudy Gobert 5 years, $205M

It's funny how some of yall see Rudy as some hometown loyalty story and Donovan as some sort of mercenary.

They both signed 5 year max deals with 5th year player options. Rudy got more money. Neither of them tested free agency. Neither of them made any irresponsible demands.

Why do you constantly do this... why do you pit them against each other... I’m pretty sure they are on the same team.

Showering praise and adoration on one guy doesn’t mean we are making a dig on the other.

You understand the difference between a restricted free agent and an unrestricted free agent, right?

Are you reading the thread? People are painting Rudy as some sacrificing favorite son while Don is getting disrespected as some guy who didn't social media enough.

I'm not saying Don over Rudy but it's definitely not Rudy over Don either.

It’s constant my man. Rudy is loyal... I get he got a shot ton of money but he also wants to be here and see this through. There was another guy who turned down our extra dough and didn’t call us back. He is homegrown and deserves celebration. I have like 3 or 4 guys on ignore because they are idiots... I’d suggest the same for you because they’ve been slanderous against DM for no reason before. Don’t fall for they BS.
 
Our fans don't appreciate a damn thing. You'd think we would be grateful we have Don, Gobert, Clarkson, Bogdonavic, Conley and Favors.
Our team gonna be pretty badass... hopefully the majority just enjoy.
 
This is great news. Gobert said all the right things. This team is incredibly DEEP - especially with Conley, Clarkson and Favors running the second unit. Those are three starting caliber players. DM running the show and breaking down the defense, Rudy beneath the basket, and three flat out shooters is the way to go. For the first time since the Stockton to Malone days - I truly believe it’s possible.

I see us as the second seed in the West this season - and I see us winning a championship within the next 5 years.
 
There was a video where he jumped in a pool with his clothes on. We weren’t in season then and wasn’t available to the media in an official capacity.
With as active as Donovan is on social media, and as smart as he is with that kind of stuff, not saying anything is kinda saying everything in my opinion with how outward he has been for years. His demeanor has changed over the past year, and what was there just isn’t anymore in my honest opinion. I would jump in a pool too with that contract he got. At the same time I just never saw anything that jumped out to me as an I’m happy to be here kind of thing. He’s happy about the money for sure but the Donovan that was there isn’t anymore in regards to this organization, city, and fanbase. He’s here for a bit though, and they have a chance to be good for the next little bit for sure. It’s just the Jazz gave Donovan the best contract they could possibly give him, and it didn’t even feel like he acknowledged the support from the franchise or fanbase even a little bit.

Maybe he was too busy setting up scholarships for underprivileged kids to go to school.
