Gobert Not Happy About Going to Dleague?

Nice to see the site's official Jazz Apologist once again defend management.

Seriously, how much do the Jazz pay you?

One can honestly agree and not be an apologist. But if you want to categorize it as such, count me as an apologist as well. Going to the D league for some minutes is the right move for Gobert. This time he should spend more time there unless we have an injury that presents a need.
 
i do think we should upgrade the tank and let gobert play minutes.

we dont get much out of playing marv or jeff big minutes.

Welcome to the last 2 months of the season. Great work, way to catch up.

Goberts been balling in d-league. Been encouraging as **** to see.

As far as development, he probably gets more down in d-league owning scrubs than he does sitting on bench in the middle of the jazz quagmire.
 
what quagmire I thought we were in the year of development

the front court quagmire where enes doesn't even start, there's zero minutes for gobert at all. im not stoked about it, its Corbins world we're living in, but i think Gobert was likely gonna spend time in d-league this year anyway, and so far i think its prob. been at least a little helpful for him. better than sitting on bench and in the locker room losing tons of games. i would prefer he were getting at least occasionally solid minutes for us
 
I was at the last game that Gobert saw any significant time. He was impressive. Yes, he makes mistakes, no he was not perfect, but the kid is a fighter, and has a little bit of fire inside....something that the jazz have very little of in the current culture of nice guys.

It is dumbfounding that the jazz can't even find 3 to 7 minutes a game for him.


Gobert had 11 rebounds 19 pts and one block in 23 minutes.

Ian Clark apparently doesn't understand how the dleauge works, he only scored 7 points, but recorded 8 assists which was good enough for 1/5 of the combined total assists from both teams.

If Clark has a future in the NBA it is as a combo guard who plays primarily point.

Looking to distribute is a good idea for him.

Murphy lad 14 points 6 rebound and 2 assists and a +13 when he was on the floor in a 4 point win for his team. He was 2-3 from three.
 
Man I love Gobert, I wouldn't even be surprised if he was top 5 in the rookie ladder if he was getting nba time. Can you imagine having our two rookies up there, we'd surely be winners of the draft. I'm sure he would be starting on the bucks haha. I just wish he would be on the team, that's why I'm hoping for Jefferson to get traded. Free the gobert!!!!

Ian had 23 today in a loss with 4 assists, Gobert had 11 points 12 boards and 3 blocked shots. Bazz had 24 and Jeffers had 19 6 boards and 5 assists for Iowa.
 
It is a travesty that Gobert is not taking 4 minutes per game from Williams and Jefferson, and a minute or 2 from Favors and Kanter, or Hayward/Burke, or a few seconds from everyone else as needs be. 10-12 (or a few more) minutes per game in the NBA would trump 36 mpg in the d-league.

Even I will admit there is a world of difference between the DLeague and the NBA. I wouldn't mind seeing Rudy getting some minutes. However last night it appears we can play with anyone.

This afternoon Jackson had 28 points 7 boards and 7 assists in an Idaho loss and Murphy had 26 points 7 boards on 3-5 shooting from 3 ball land. I wonder if Portland might view Murphy as a late season call up as Idaho is their sole affliated team?
 
Gobert should be getting NBA playing time. But since he's not, I would rather see him get playing time in the D-League than sit on the Jazz bench the entire game.
 
I watched the LA Defenders play the Idaho Stampede last night and LA won. For the Defenders Manny Harris dropped 49 points. For Idaho Pierre Jackson had 28 with 8 assists Richard Howewll had 24 with 12 boards and Murph had a quiet 21. Interestingly before the game the Stampede coach said in a press conference that New Orleans told Jackson that he had their blessing to seek a trade to another NBA team. They still hold his rights despite him playing in an NBA sanctioned league.

Also last night Gobert had 8 points 3 rebounds and Ian 13 points 4 assists in a 2 point Bakersfied loss.
