Tie between Rudy dominating (underreported/unreported nationally) and Bojan being amazing (also underreported). That's because I'm on the more optimistic side. If Conley didn't struggle last night, I would have said he was returning to form, but I'm concerned about his inconsistency in being able to hit shots. On the down side, I'd say Joe being awful at shooting has to be the worst. Hopefully last night facilitates changes.
 
It's only been one incredible night, but I'm going with Bradley. In a season of surprises(Conley, Jingles, Bojan) his performance last night has to be the biggest of all. He went toe to toe with Giannis in the first half and looked absolutely amazing. I think that's three out of four games that he's impressed. Yeah he looked atrocious a few games ago but last night just doesn't lie, he was great on offense and defense. What could this mean for us?!

It could mean that soon someone is going to suggest we can replace Gobert with Bradley and that we can move Gobert for better pieces. It will be like all the discussion each of the last two seasons where we look kinda ok without Gobert in a couple games and everyone turning on a huge body of evidence that Gobert > Favors. Except this will age even worse. But hey, everyone can get high of sniffing each other’s farts when it happens. YOLO.

First person to say that should be banned for life, IMO. YOLO means you die sometimes, right?
 
The most talked about narrative has been Conley, but the most important stories have been:
1) Jazz defense being elite (Gobert)
2) Bojan being great. We haven't had this good of a second offensive option since Boozer/Williams.
3) Mitchell has taken a step forward.
 
Headline on the story of the season so far imo is "unreached potential". We've seen hints and glimpses of how good this team can be. Not quite there though..... yet.

I think December and January will be great months for us. Things are starting to come together.
 
I'd say Bojan because his signing didn't get as much attention as Conley, and there was some hesitance on stuff for rebounding and defense. But damn, he's been just fine there and an absolute assassin. Rudy and Mitchell getting even better wasn't that big a surprise.
 
I keep pin-balling from 'we haven't played to maximum potential and we're still 11/6', to 'if Rudy and Donovan are not all stars it would be highway robbery', to 'Conley has struggled somewhat but he's not the only one, Joe is missing his bells as you put it', to 'Bogey is the acquisition of the season by such a long margin'.

But if I had to pick one of your options, I'm going to focus on a positive, and pick Bogey as our unequivocal sniperererer.
 
Rudy continues to dominate. He is certainly not resting on his laurels, he claims to want to be the best defender ever and is trying to do so. His impact on the game can't be overstated, he's just that dominant.
 
Has to be Bogey. I knew he was good, I had no idea he was THIS good.
