I am officially a believer. Even before this series ends. As a Rookie, he is playing phenomenal. Absolutely unphased. I believe he is a special player. He is also a student of the game. Utah has something to finally cheer about.

I think he has been magnificent - especially in the post season thus far. Now imagine if he had to opportunity to play with & learn from a vet that has had some success in the league. Sky's the limit IMO.

He needs help ASAP. Get another superstar in town and see what happens.

He and Tatum have come into this league as the best shooters in the game in years, along with Brogdan. These three are going to be offensive juggernauts. Just need to make sure they play D too

I really hate Rudy's body language.

I was watching the Post game presser for the Jazz after they snuffed out the Thunder and there looked to be some resentment from the Vets.

At one point, Ingles just pushed all the mics in front of Donovan because he was getting the lionshare of the questions.

He kept trying to say he's only doing so well because of Rubio, Rudy and Ingles and there was a ton of snickering and eyerolling.

I think Gobert expected to be the man and is not adjusting well to being overshadowed.

If he could come to terms with Donovan's emergence, he'd be one hell of a 2nd or 3rd option.

I really like Crowder for them too. Guy has been a different player since leaving Cleveland.

So agree. Rudy is not a player I want on my team. He has a very thin skin

I hadn't noticed any of that. Might have to look into that.

BTW, one or two things in DM's game that is not good is his defensive rating..............very bad. He also takes alot of their shots and he is not stellar but good behind the 3 line. Maybe thats what has a few getting salty

Not that one.

Favors, Rudy, Donovan, Ingles....

Rudy had on a suit that made him look like John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever.

I think it's this one....

Maybe they were joking...

But, the whole interview seems like the other 3 are like....

Why are we even here?

The Gobert stuff you can see on the court.

That's just Ingles being funny. He's humble and a joker from listening to local radio. But Gobert, yes, he may have an ego. I mean, he does, but it may play out like you said.

I noted Rudys body language in teh last game. He was flailing his arms like Pau Gasol out there. His D was atrocious. Seemed frustrated the whole game.

Yes, he has much growth to make. He's more susceptible to caring about what others think, compared to Mitchell. But some of his defensive struggles is part of playing (one of the two) best Western Conference team, who does not play traditional offense (threes, multiple cutters, and a talented big guy).
