Gobert rips teammates

Rudy is the heart of this team. If everyone on the jazz played with his mindset we'd be at least five games better in the wins column

Who was getting roasted by Crawford? Ingles? Hood?

Also Joe Johnson was looking for his shot a lot, but that's what he does.
 
More Gobert's interview :

"I think everybody needs to think about making plays for the team, making winning plays, before thinking about how many points we're going to score and stuff like that,"
"Everybody has to be ready to sacrifice. In the playoffs, it's not going to be pretty. There's going to be some games where you don't score, but are you going to take a charge for a teammate? Are you going to come and box out DeAndre [Jordan] for a teammate?

"It works with all of us. And we do it, we do it, but we do it by stretches. We need to do it right from the beginning of the game. I think when we do that, we're very, very, very good."

"Gordon is going to be fine, he's human. There's going to be some games where he don't make shots. I keep telling him to stay aggressive and try to make the right play and everything comes. I think he did a good job in the second half. We've just got to be there for each other."
 
Man im not just talking about one game, burks is more like a cj miles than a deron williams
 
Gobert wants to have teammates that play winning basketball. Both Hill and Burks are into hero ball.

We miss a Kirilenko type of player that can help the team to win games even without being considered on offense.

I'm glad Gobert made these statements before the playoffs.
 
Ehh, I wouldn't be so sure. Joe Johnson certainly doesnt "compete" on defense.

Yeah that's definitely true. I say that because of Rudy's interview with Root Sports after the game (it's the video on the ESPN article), he mentioned that they got back in the game because "we got guys that have some fight". The comeback in the 3rd was made on the backs of himself, Joe Johnson, and Neto.
 
Joe Johnson is one of the very few players that I'm confident Rudy is not referring to.
Agreed.
First thought it was burks but hood would make some sense too.

Today rudy threw an outlet pass to burks that got stolen and he was more pissed than I have ever seen him on court. He might have been mad at himself though as it was more Rudy's fault it got stolen than burks.
