How could anybody outside of Utah hate a Jazz player? They don't know them.
All of those players you listed outside of Cousins and Anthony have had more success and A LOT more exposure than any Jazz player.
Maybe the Jazz are just an extremely likable team. It seems that way now, but they don't have a million cameras on them and national media requests.
Gobert, for example is really likable, but he definitely has a feistiness that could grate on people with more exposure, especially if the Jazz started winning a ton.
