A few months ago a dear friend passed away. He leaves behind a beautiful family who is left to pick up the pieces. Would appreciate it if you’d consider helping them recover with a donation. God bless.

I know
@wojespn
is teflon, but what an irresponsible tweet re: Rudy.
All the players share the same locker room, showers, plane, bus, etc. They’re in constant contact with each other.
To paint Rudy like some malicious evil villain here is a really bad look for Woj and ESPN.

Man, I tell you what ... I don’t work for the Jazz anymore, but I’m about to go crazy on these ass holes attacking Rudy.
Most don’t know how hard he’s worked to find his place in the league. He works his ass off. He loves his teammates. He ONLY wants to win.
Lay off him.

I absolutely love the way Donovan just acts like he belongs. Scoring, playmaking, defending, leadership. He has it all. And his teammates recognize it, and allow him to lead. As a rookie. It's so rare. And it's incredibly fun to watch. What a win.

Scoring 40 + pts in an NBA game is an insane achievement.
Scoring 46 pts in an NBA game when you’re the CLEAR # 1 option vs a team who’s coach is a mastermind and has the odds on favorite to win MVP is beyond special.
He’s yours, Jazz fans. Enjoy the moment.

Jazz organizational ethos of staying silent is admirable, and often, effective. It’s been around for generations.
But someone needs to speak up. Dennis, JZ, Quin ... someone. Rudy is taking an absolute beating. Don is staying silent. Comes across as Rudy on an island. Bad look.
