What's new

Locker room clean out day the 2014 edition

Doesn't like playing center, it everyone is taller him, and heavier.


What a Nancy. If he can't play center, cut him loose and we'll let Gobert play alongside Kanter. Jazz need a C, if Favors is going to be a ***** about it we don't need him.

If this is right, he's pretty much your averaged sized C. A little shorter, but heavier.

He just wants to go back to college/high school where he was the biggest/strongest.

Gobert sounds like Andre the giant.

He works a lot with Alex Jensen, and mark Mckeon. Gobert feels stronger says he will get stronger.

Talked about the ft shooting when they intentionally fouled him.
 
Gobert- Learned a lot, "wish I could have played more", said that 3 times. Hard to play professionally in France and then come to the NBA and be a rookie. Worked everyday with Alex Jensen on his shot. Going to work mainly on strengthening the legs and core, but especially the legs.
 
Alec Burks. I'm a killer, a killer on both sides.

I'm tired and banged up.

Everything will work out with his contract. He learned from Derrick, he learned from G.
 
Burks- "I'm a killer on both sides" this league it's kill or be killed. Tired, played a lot of minutes. Going work on being in better shape for next season. Contract talks, "It will all work itself out"

Derrick Favors on whether 20-10 is his goal: "20-10? 25-15."

Tony Jones @Tjonessltrib
Favors said he hopes and feels Gordon Hayward will be back with the jazz next season
 
Sounds like Burks has some fire even though he's tired and beat up, really good to hear. I'm glad to hear that Gobert wanteed to play more and is focused on strength. I'm excited for what he has to offer
