Gobert update thread

[Ron Mexico]

what are you talking about?

LOP shared a tweet earlier in this thread by Peter Novak (no clue who that is) that said Gobert is out for game 4.

Rudy doesn't guarantee a game 2 win

I agree we could have lost that one either way but I think Gobert pretty much would have guaranteed a game 3 win. But then again the whole series would be different maybe we dont step up and win game 1 if Gobert was out.

They score at least 20 less points in the paint and have to settle for jumpers. It was an 8 point game. Yeah, the Jazz win that.

No. In the regular season the Jazz allowed an average of 41 points per game in the paint. In game 2 they allowed 60. So if they had Gobert they would likely be at least near their average. 60-41=19.

"if" "likely"

Again not a guarantee.

Dennis Lindsay said he would make sure Rudy remains protected, so that seems to suggest we won't see him tomorrow, and possibly in game 5. At least.

Yeah.. I mean as hard as it is to swallow, you don't want to give him long term issue... gotta look towards the future.

Game 6 at the earliest...if that. I feel he will be out longer than originally anticipated.

To be honest, even if he's out for the rest of the series, we should still be able to beat the 'Blake-less' Clippers. If we don't, I don't think we deserve to move on to the next round.

We still can't defend the Paul/DJ two man pick and roll show. Every one of our bigs is a liability. And none of our bigs are providing anything offensively either. Except JJ.

Name of the game strategy wise for Game 4 is foul trouble. Make DJ and CP3 work and get caught up in foul trouble. Even taking one of them out of the game for extended periods will benefit the Jazz.

If Gobert is out as expected... Why not go with a five of JJ, Hayward, Ingles, Hood and Hill? Go small, spread them out and make Jordan guard the perimeter. That five can't be any worse on the glass or on defense inside than the Favs/Diaw combo who got us 7 rebounds in a combined 62 minutes on the court in game 3. And it will be much more effective offensively than those two. Then when Jordan sits bring on Favs and/or Diaw and try to take a size advantage. Is that crazy?

Yes, that is crazy. You have to have someone to box out Jordan. Those boxouts allow dudes like Hill and Hayward to dig in to get boards.

Gobert officially listed as doubtful, so a slight upgrade in status.

So you're saying there's a chance?!

Didn't know "Doubtful" could evoke such happiness.
