There are few lights in this dark tunnel. New ownership and Don being a superstar. Royce being a good role player.
I just don't get it... we are getting destroyed. Try sth else... what's the worst that can happen? Still get destroyed? Jesus
Again Rudy’s shortcomings are other people’s fault. DM was tough at times... he drew a PG push off and had almost as many rebounds as Rudy.
They are afraid of life without Rudy. They have put so much time and heart into his rise that they have just accepted and ignored his glaring weaknesses. So much so that the narrative always turns into a blame of somebody else.
Jebus... look... it isn’t all on him obvi but when Reggie Jackson takes it right the **** at him while he is camped in the paint I need him to win that battle... he lost it twice. Just like he lost it twice times the game before when Mann, RJ took it to him. That is his area of responsibility and he didn’t take care of it.
Good until he meets his kryptonite... small ball or a shooting 5 then the house of cards falls. We’ve been given plenty of evidence... we can believe it or deny it but the sample is large.
Quin gets some blame too. He’s a good coach but everyone making him some super genius needs to calm down... he has a look that makes you think he’s smarter than he is. Ty Lue may look like a gold fish but he coached circles around Quin and it wasn’t close. Ty has more options for sure but Quin didn’t try the limited options he had.
Quin is out coached in playoff for 5th year.
Eh, Rudy has problems which I am willing to admit. I think there is an urge in him to protect the rim that makes him not trust any of his teammates. It is somewhat justified, Jazz have had terrible perimeter defenders the last 2 years but you have to guard your man first and you can't half *** contests in the playoffs. However, if he shut down Mann and everyone else scored and we got beat, the blame would still be on him. I just don't think putting Rudy between a rock and a hard place is a viable strategy.
