Nobody needs to be hammering Rudy Gobert right now.
He’s extraordinarily thoughtful and caring and I believe that’s where the microphone touching comes from. It was a sign of unity and not disrespect.
He’s a very kind person and everyone should be wishing for his wellbeing.

So Gordon Hayward's career in Boston likely ends having made less money than he would have in Utah, no championships, no All-Star games, and the third or fourth option on most of those teams.

The Jazz traded for a 20 ppg scorer & a career 37% three point shooter, with nearly perfect “Jazz DNA.” He’s teaming with the best young player the team has had in 30 years, and the reigning DPOY entering his prime.

The NBA's Last Two Minutes Report says Jordan Clarkson did get fouled by Steph Curry on a three point attempt, with 32 seconds left, with the Jazz up two.

I thought it was crazy the Jazz cost themselves 30 games with Mike Conley by not wanting to include Dante Exum in the first rumored Ricky Rubio deal to get the deal done.
Then the Jazz got Conley and turned Exum into Jordan Clarkson and that’s why Dennis Lindsey has his job.
