Don’t let facts get in the way of a good narrative Arod
I love Rudy. Bit of an over pay, but if even two of those picks to the Jazz are a bust, and if we can make it to the playoffs every year Rudy is on the team, I would say it’s not a bad trade.
I also just want to say, I think Kessler is good, but he is not some Center rookie God from the heavens. Dude had a good year, but I doubt a big rookie white dude showed up on many scouting reports. I think he got more blocks because dudes carelessly drove on him when they would never do those same drives on Rudy. Also tall white dudes in the league don’t last long. Rudy is muscular with very low body fat and doesn’t do crazy shit with his body, he has a body that can last into this 30’s (and all night long)
Agreed. Anchored the defense all year and it’s not his fault he was traded for so much and couldn’t live up to those expectations in his first year on a new team
