Look at the offense just surge with Gobert on the bench! It's poetry in motion, eh Cy!

You mean Hayward and Burks making 1-on-1 moves to get fouled because our offense can't get anything going because of how bad our spacing and how poor our bigs are at passing?

We need a pg and shooters this offseason. A perimeter based offense cannot function when your best creator is a SF and no one on the team can hit the 3 ball with consistency.

While most teams have 3-6 shooters, we have one (hayward). But he also has to play PG because burke sucks and Exum thinks he's Kyle Korver with a broken leg. Even Andre Miller has driven the ball into the paint more, and he's on Medicare.

Look at the FG% with Gobert on/off the court. Look at the offense rating. Hey, watch the games even! It's not that hard to tell, Gobert is a huge negative for our offense.

I love watching Gobert on defense. I love him when he gets rebounds on offense and dunks the ball when he manages to find himself open. The facts are he can't score on anyone and he struggles to handle passes in light traffic and greatly struggles in heavy traffic. He acts very fiery and tough, but he goes up weaker than Charmin with the ball because he doesn't have strong hands or a strong base.

God, I wish I had your lucid vision, sitting on my *** watching a game! Every player has positives and negatives on offense. You use the positives. None of our players are really good on offense. Some of our players are better at getting there own shots than others. You also have the visual imagery of Tolkien!

What about these stats:

Gobert could singlehandedly make the Jazz offense elite if they would let him make more handoff passes.

Ill take it a step further, the Jazz would have won a few titles in the mid 2000s if we could have teamed him up with money, booz, Dwill from 2007-2010.

Finally, the defensive big we've needed since Eaton retired.
 
Gobert can give us a lot of energy on defense, which can translate to points on the other end and he can bring offensive rebounds. Those are the only positives he brings to us offensively.
 
Looks like I tuned in at the right time. Dayum we are D-ing well.
 
Gotta get this stop out of the timeout. Make it a 4-point game.

This except I'd also add Snyder to the list.

Why? You think Pops, Phil, or Jerry could turn this talent depleted team into a playoff team?

What's Quin supposed to do? Play Hayward, Burks, Kanter, and Gobert 48 mins? That'll win us some championships...

Made me laugh. Great points. We need players who can put the ball in the basket. Burks is ok on 3's, but nothing to talk about. Need to replace both guards with shooters. Alec can come off the bench. And Gobert definitely the starting center going forward. Maybe doesn't happen until next year, but it will happen.
