When Utah blows up this off-season who do they build around?

But you have to understand, Gobert plus 4 guards is just unfair to him on a scheme level..

Fair has nothing to do with anything. Other team plays 5 wings and guards and they can all shoot teams are only gonna play so many bigs. Doesn’t matter how any individual feels or what he needs to play the best personally. He’s not the caliber of player to play to the strengths of on general principle.

and yet the Jazz have been built around him for 7 plus years

And where has that got them?

3 first round exits

2 second round exits

0 conference finals appearances

You're not winning a championship with Rudy Gobert as your best player

Around which abilities exactly? How do the Jazz players complement him?

Ish when 7 years is almost 10

Err what? Wasn't your hero drafted in 2013?

as a project. December 2014 is when he started carrying the franchise

Are you really trying to say Gobert in his second season was carrying the Jazz over Gordon Hayward who was considered by everyone to be the franchise player

Were one of the worst teams in the league before he emerged in December. After trading Kanter 6th best team in league. So much for tanking!

So how come the jazz won more games in the 2018 semifinals than they did in the previous year (2017)?

More interested in where Gobert actually goes.

If he manages to go somewhere with wings that are smart and athletic enough to help well/protect the rim without him it’s lights out for whatever conference he is in.

Boston, Toronto, GS, Phoenix, LAC. Even the Lakers. I know Pop would love him.

Can you imagine what Ty Lue would do to the NBA come playoff time with PG/Kawhi/Gobert to scheme with defensively?

Gobert is a ceiling raising final piece to an all-time juggernaut. A nuclear version of what Rasheed did for the Pistons. Annnnd dummies can’t see that, yet. Bookmarking this for a bump when he goes somewhere and pretty much bans elite offense with some actual defensive help.

So, he goes to the so-so Timberwolves, and it looks like they're about to speed run a title. Like just sweeping gentleman sweeping every ****in body.


Told you fools.

not counting injuries, you think the Wolves would do Gobert for Beverly/Kessler/Vanderbilt, right now?

You forgot the picks and pick swaps whoch was the main part of the deal as far as Ainge was concerned
