Beyond Memo and Eaton, there's nobody on that list.

You're right, I missed the "jazz" part. I thought this was a sarcastic Jazz homer post.

He has significantly improved this year offensively. Despite lazy observations he actually has good hands for a guy that big, can exceed 70% FT.
We always say he lacks an offensive move posting up. But now he leads the league in FG% and is less turnover prone and more confident shooting FTs so perhaps just keep using him the way we're using now with P&Rs and all? Favors can do the posting up.
Defensively his impact is beyond stats.. should win DPOY if the Jazz win 50+ games this season.
Right now his main focus should be bulking up imo. When he starts to get more respect from refs he will be better but right now other bigs just shove him around especially late in the games. Last game he lost two rebounds like that despite his perfect positioning.

I'd take Gobert over Memo. I think Rudy is going to extend his range within the next season.

Imagine Gobert in Memos spot back in 2007-2010. I think we'd of won a ship with that squad because Rudy would be there for Boozers matador defense.

You're the best, framer! I was considering doing just a list after the thread was discontinued. Hope maintaining this doesn't cause family troubles. Wanting to watch games and post on Jazzfanz was one of the things my ex hated. Never mind she had HER hobbies. I just couldn't have any of my own!
