I didn't see a team that quit. I saw a team that just didn't have what it took to get the job done.Feels like they quit on the year and just wanted to get to the off-season.
I’ll say this…If people in the national media are talking about the Jazz quitting and being done with each other…then it’s definitely a broken locker room
Can you prove that that is, in fact, the Utah Jazz locker room? I have my doubts.Maybe that's why the team didn't perform well?

Not entirely. It takes effort to build chemistry. It takes effort to play as a team. It takes effort to have humility and be accountable.I didn't see a team that quit. I saw a team that just didn't have what it took to get the job done.
Effort and chemistry are two different things.

This is where all the "they don't have to like each other" talk went sideways. We aren't talking about a normal office workplace... Steph and Draymond have amazing chemistry in part because of mutual trust but also they like each other. When one guy effs up it isn't because he is selfish or assumed to be something other than just an eff up.Not entirely. It takes effort to build chemistry. It takes effort to play as a team.

Utah didnt have these things. The effort was abysmal because the chemistry was broken. They go hand in hand.
Kobe/Shaq is the best example of that.This is where all the "they don't have to like each other" talk went sideways. We aren't talking about a normal office workplace...

The Pistons and Mavs teams had amazing chemistry and relationships... Spurs too... titles are hard to win... can't think of a team that had a "professional" relationship that won a title. Even Love and Lebron are homies after some drama/sniping.
I was trying to think of non-superstar versions... those guys are like top10/15 types. I think MJ/Scottie was also frigid at times.Kobe/Shaq is the best example of that.
