dante9876 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 How not one starter play 40 minutes or more in an elimination game. Utah should probably be looking for a new coach for next season to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsoxsuck05 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Donovan Mitchell is simultaneously a Playoff God who single-handedly wins series, but single-handedly loses in the playoffs because Rudy Gobert and Mike Conley are bums. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinn Snyder is probably the worst coach at making in game/in series adjustments in the league though. Dude let Rudy get switched onto Luka like 12 straight times down the stretch of the game, lol.

Conley is the ultimate choke god, should've let that man walk in free agency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda feel bad for Rudy because if you guys had any decent perimeter defenders you could maybe make things work. But then again Rudy's limitations and lack of playoff resiliency on O are a huge reason why teams can get away with playing 5 out against Utah to neutralize him.

But then again Rudy's limitations and lack of playoff resiliency on O are a huge reason why teams can get away with playing 5 out against Utah to neutralize him. Quinn just refused to adjust though, he hardly played Hermangomez, House, or Paschall and didn't play Rudy Gay a single minute the entire series. We've been plagued by the same issues since the Conley/Bojan trades, the Don/Conley backcourt is just too small and so is a forward duo of Royce/Bojan because none of them rebound or have any switch ability defensively. Regardless though there's no reason to continuously let Luka just feast on Rudy in the clutch, he should've had some cajones and went small. The only reason that I'm optimistic though is that Danny Ainge is now in control of the roster and he has shown that he isn't afraid to make aggressive moves or to shake up a roster. We need to get more versatile/athletic, I think Don is the only player that's safe. Would like to see us move on from Conley/Bojan, possibly Rudy as well but we'll see what happens. Apparently we don't have plans to do a complete rebuild but we need to retool the roster in major ways. Also I hope we get rid of Royce O'Neale who may be the literal worst player in the NBA.

NYRaider Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 I wanted us to draft Herb Jones last year but we traded the pick for salary cap reasons and I wanted Desmond Bane the year prior and we took freaking Udoka, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can take Bertans, Dinwiddie and filler so Dallas can take Rudy from you 😉 He's a perfect fit there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd entertain a lot of offers for Rudy but we need to get a versatile, athletic wing in return. Sign Mitchell Robinson to replace Rudy. Hopefully Danny Ainge can work his magic, should be one of the most interesting off-seasons we've had in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what his value is or if they deal Mitchell because they could get more for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our main beat reporter said the plan is to build around Don and that he's basically the only one that's safe. I think my ideal (but probably unrealistic moves) would be: • Trade Mike Conley / Royce to the Clippers for Mann, Boston, and Morris • Trade Rudy to the Bulls for Ball, Caruso, and Williams Sign Mitchell Robinson in free agency Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
