Jazz finally found that gear from last season.

Just another level of play going on with this defense.

Gobert 23 points 22 rebounds and 4 blocks. Wow you could see the visible frustration from the Clippers when Rudy was in. Dominate defense.

If Gobert keeps getting stronger and develops into a consistent 20 20 guy, this team might become a contender

[EagleMountainUte]

Gobert accounts for -20 on the other end. It’s almost as if he averages a 40 point game if you account for the defensive swing.

Rudy is, arguably, a top 10 player. Just doesn’t get the attention other guys get.

[EagleMountainUte]

I need to start tracking the defensive stuff he does. It is subtle but I was really watching how he bothers guys shots and it was astounding. The only one not frustrated was that Williams guy. I put -20 as just a spitball round number but it might be more. 

Korver is interesting to me. Defensively he really is a hole at times. He lets things in and has bad fouls. Yet he opens up offense for everyone the entire time he is on the court. His movement off screens is scary fast with that release.

I’m still worried that they might just have been playing crappy teams.  I hope I’m wrong.

Not sure what you mean?  Jazz have had the second most difficult schedule.
