“That little mother****** is good. That dude’s a rookie. He’s crazy. He’s the best rookie in the NBA

Not much of a diss when you look at the actual history... especially Duhron.
Not sure what you are saying...
His knock is joking he doesn’t know what Utah is, a team (among many others) who kept him out of the second round in back-to-back years. Just like pretending he didn’t know Deron’s name. It would be like Boozer “dissing” Lamar Odom by pretending he didn’t know who he was — it wouldn’t be a diss, it’d be a latent manifestation of insecurity, bitterness, embarrassment or shame, and serves as deflection from uncomfortable realities — using humor as a defense mechanism (albeit recognized as a more healthy defense mechanism).
Oh yeah, forgot about the Deron thing lmao. I still think it's funny. I like TMac on ESPN.

Hayward scored forty in a loss to the Clippers, game 3. I was there. Not a happy game.

With his rate of improvement and desire to learn I still wouldn't count him out. Once again, however, the market may work against him.

Simmons has gotten so much pub and has played so well. It would take a lot for Mitchell to pass him. A few more 40 point games and the Jazz continuing to climb the playoff board would definitely help.
Just saying that Simmons shouldn't have been a rookie this year if not for his injury. If that were the case Mitchell's main competition would be Tatum or Kuzma

Austin Rivers praises him one night and he then drops 41 the next. His profile is ready to blow up. Imagine what it does after he drops 40 again this year. . . because it’s GOING to happen.
