What kind of player can Gobert be?

I think we got Rudy because he is tall and can walk and chew gum at the same time. I think I read that is part of the workout for bigs anyway.

I read that he attended the workouts and he singled out Rudy and his work ethic and teachability as someone we needed to get. The fact that we had Rudy in for the workout at all is probably to the credit of the scout.

Didn't remember the workout, but I did remember Lindsey saying there was an international player everyone was "sleeping on." So give credit to all of them. Getting Gobert makes up for wasting the #9 pick on Trey. Also thank OKC and Boston. The pre-draft rumor had the Jazz targeting a big, but then concluding he'd likely be gone before the Jazz picked. That prompted them to trade up. Don't know if that big would have been Olynyk or Adams.
 
Sloan was in Chicago as well. Pretty sure the Jazz had Rudy high on their list, and then they ended up being able to buy the pick from Denver and get him. I think the whole org was probably in agreement that they should get Rudy.

Has anyone here ever read a NAOS post, and laughed at his attempt at humour?

Like Fesenko once said in an interview: ''I don't wanna be like 'I'm center, I play low post, and I can walk'', with the strong Ukranian accent..

New posters who read NAOS's God-awful chirps probably assume he's a BYU fan.

droppin rivalry bombs from Alberta. Cool reference... even if you've never really experienced what the rivalry is like for yourself, ya know, being from Canada and all. It's cool though that you're able to soak up so much of what other people tell you about feelings. And that you've done so much ethnography of BYU fans from here (on jazzfanz!).
