Name me more than 5 players in the NBA who can get the ball in the post

and go to work. That's just not the way NBA basketball is played these days. Too many people are stuck in the 90s with their basketball analysis. Gobert is an elite inside scorer because he rolls to the rim and forces defenses to drop defenders, which results in either easy dunks (if the defense is late) or wide open threes.

It’s not Jazz fans. It’s national media. They’re the ones gushing.

We have reason to be excited.

Rudy Gobert broke the record for dunks in a season. Their best inside scoring

Hypnotoad

7/4/19 1:14pm

You mean the best dunker . . . You can throw the ball to Gobert and let him work

Didn’t he play less minutes in playoffs than regular season?

gwill

7/4/19 2:16pm

30.4 MPG as opposed to 31.8 in the regular season

7/4/19 2:19pm

Only 24 min in the only game they won

gwill

7/4/19 2:28pm

He wasn’t the reason they lost the other games

7/4/19 2:58pm

Gobert makes the whole offense go.

Belboz

7/4/19 4:16pm

Dominant, lol.

messi

7/6/19 11:45am

Never heard Gobert and offense used in the same sentence. LOL

Well that's telling.

Hes 7'1" what else do you need him to do?

rad dawg

7/4/19 1:35pm

Averaged 11pts a game in playoffs. Is that really dominant?

gwill

The Jazz got the most wide open threes of any team in the playoffs.

No. That's me understanding the modem NBA game

Hypnotoad

Your 100% correct. I thought everyone knew this.

Blue2thebone

7/4/19 10:07pm

Jazz should fine anyone who throws the ball to Rudy below his head

Blue2thebone

7/4/19 10:07pm

I don't know which point is the most ridiculous, but I'll go for #4.

cougaman

7/4/19 1:15pm

And as to #5? LOLOLOL. How did he regress? Because he struggled in 1 playoff

cougaman

7/4/19 1:16pm

I think valuing low-post scoring shows a lack of understanding of

Hypnotoad

7/4/19 1:18pm

I’m not as Jazz fan, but had to laugh at that. “Our starting PG got a lot better

2018grad

7/4/19 1:21pm

Yeah, I’d take Conley and Mudiay over Rubio and Neto every single time

7/4/19 1:30pm

I guess you don’t know how bad the new kid from New York is

Blue2thebone

7/4/19 10:09pm

I guess you don't know anything about basketball and the Jazz. Mitchell will

cougaman

7/5/19 11:06am

Yes absolutely a downgrade. Read this...

Blue2thebone

7/4/19 11:17pm

But Conley is a huge upgrade over Rubio

7/5/19 7:01am

Yeah, at least Conley doesn’t have a injury history...or does he?

gwill

7/5/19 7:15am

Good think neto is so resilient... or is he?

cougaman

7/5/19 9:53am

Good thing neto plays for the sixers . . .

TBabyCougs

7/5/19 10:45am

Good thing you read to see what sparked this whole subthread...

cougaman

7/5/19 10:50am

I see that . . . Coming from a dude who thinks the Jazz are gonna win a title

TBabyCougs

7/5/19 11:08am

Where did I say that?

cougaman

7/5/19 11:17am

I think that’s a valid concern

7/5/19 11:14am

I'll give you #2. I haven't forgotten.

777

7/4/19 1:25pm

Elite shooter, capable defender, decent playmaker off the bench

7/4/19 1:28pm

Got his feelings hurt when we cheered for Jimmer. Don't forget that one. I don't

777

7/4/19 1:32pm

Right, so how is upgrading the SF position and having Ingles come off the bench

cougaman

7/4/19 3:11pm

Right, he is a good role player who was asked to do too much last year and wore

cougaman

7/4/19 1:51pm

#2 is why we have Bojan.

Mitchell didn’t “digress” lol

Boy did you just alienate 90% of the board.

Hawk Talons

I actually did forget about Ingles against Houston. That’s was special.

7/4/19 1:51pm

Ingles struggled a bit during the second half of the season

Belboz

7/4/19 6:33pm

That series against Houston was spectacularly bad. Like Matt Criddle against

7/4/19 7:50pm

Moronic post. Glass half empty guy for sure.

cougar95

7/4/19 2:30pm

I got you dude!

IceBlue

7/4/19 2:34pm

Yeah.Utah's new backup point guard may shoot as poorly as the previous starter

Belboz

7/4/19 4:08pm

Mudiay is not the backup PG. he is No. 3 (maybe No. 4). Exum and Mitchell will

7/4/19 4:53pm

Is this awful Jazz hottake an annual thing now?

7/4/19 6:04pm

Vs. Milwaukee are you talking about 15 reb, 14 pts game, or the other game?

ochobeeguy

7/4/19 8:13pm

Well Anthony Davis only played in 2 of those games so . . .

TBabyCougs

7/4/19 9:23pm

My bad, lets substitute that one for 26, 17 and 3 vs OKC

ochobeeguy

7/4/19 10:34pm

Ok much better
