Rudy Gobert 5 years, $205M

This thread is about Gobert not about mind reading or tea leaving about Mitchell's imagined feelings. He recently wrote a very positive players article about playing for Utah. Stop being a whiny paranoid high-school girlfriend.

If you want to find something wrong, you will always find it - be it a person or a group. The people of Utah are great. Are we perfect? Hell no, we got a lot of things to improve just like anywhere in the USA.

He may be trolling in his approach but I don’t believe getting us irate is the target. I believe he is completely genuine and he is crusading against his former self who he seems to see in the rest of us.

“Irate” may not be the goal. But “stirred up” in any way whatsoever is. He’s the kind of troll that dives in, gets frothy, and figures it out midstream. When he finds a nerve, he presses down. We’ve seen this playbook many times.

The "best part" of our franchise center re-signing with the hopes of winning a title here is that the size of the contract might make me upset?

How lame is your life?

It's pretty great because I have the luxury of being able to appreciate the simple joys in life like an annoying jackass being upset online because we didnt trade an All-Star for a bunch of scrubs.

We still don't know what happened in the lockerroom. And if Rudy didn't apologize right away, why does Don have to forgive right away?

I'm a Christian and believe in forgiveness, but nobody should blame Don for being upset at Rudy if Rudy:
A - did something stupid
B - didn't apologize for it

Can't believe people are actually mad at Don for having a human reaction as the 2nd person in his profession to contract a worldwide pandemic illness.

It is entirely possible Donovan gave Rudy Covid. They got it at the same time.

Haha. I guess you don't know me at all. Turns out one of your simple joys is miscalculated.

I'm not upset that Rudy signed this deal. It doesn't upset me at all. It is what it is.

I'm happy to have him back. I'm optimistic about the next couple seasons. I'm wrong a lot and I hope I'm wrong about how devastating his contract will be in a few years. But we will cross that bridge when we get there. My guess is that Rudy's contract will upset a majority of this thread, and maybe even you, by the end of it. We can wait and see.

Go Jazz

There is so much we don't know.

What we do know - Rudy did something in that locker room bad enough that nobody wants to bring it to the surface. Nobody came to Rudy's defense on his actions in the locker room. So whether Don got it hours before Rudy or not is irrelevant. Rudy was the first confirmed COVID case and his actions towards Don and maybe even others were unacceptable.

We are months away from this and it still baffles me that people bash Don for having a very human reaction to a very unprecedented situation.

But DID Rudy do something? Any links to suggested locker room actions by Rudy?

Or did Donovan jump to the conclusion that Rudy was at fault for his getting the virus when it possibly could have been him that gave Rudy the virus? Maybe Don tried to make Rudy the scapegoat to protect his image. Or maybe Rudy was cavalier and Don had a legitimate beef. Hard to say.

We may never find out what happened but my gut tells me to side with Rudy.

Can't really sweep this under the rug. Rudy definitely did stuff in the locker room. Whatever he did really pissed off Don for whatever reason. Nobody publicly supported Rudy when it comes to the conversation about what happened in the locker room.
