Rudy Gobert: "As I’ve been in the league and watching games, I feel like we don’t get calls that everybody else gets. … I’m not able to get calls that everybody in this ******* league gets. … Hopefully they watch the game when they get home and they feel ashamed.

A french person having a whine. I am shocked

Utah players acting like they are 10-20. Seem to think they should be undefeated the way they are carrying on.

Tbh they copped a couple of rough calls in the last minute against us on Tuesday.

Didn't see the game today, but apparently there was some controversy over a reviewed out of bounds call or something.

That foul on embiid by gobert was absolute rubbish.

Horrible calls jazz definitely got screwed.

They got some rough calls but i am not copping Gobert having another wine when the guy gets away with 73 moving screens per game.

They also melted hard, Mitchell chucked big time late and the double tech for arguing is on him. That game was still totally winnable and they threw it away.

Might get trade to dubs for Wiseman and the wolves pick? Around the draft time

Would be good result for both teams
Way overs for mine, Vuc is good but Wisemen is one of the best young prospects in the league and a super valuable pick?

Doubt they would be signing up for that.

You could see the frustration building all game and I was surprised he or Gobert didn't get angry earlier. If they start getting more foul calls for the next few games then it would be worth it. Wait and see...

Philly are like regular season Harden. Get all the FTS during the year, then don’t get them in playoff basketball and s*** the bed

Did the refs help them give up multiple 10+ point leads?
Embiid is the MVP. That’s the difference between two very even teams. Not the refs.

Curry 33
Klay 32 - double major injury.
Green 32.

Do they have the luxury of waiting for Wiseman and the new pick to come good?

Vuc is a gun and fits the window which is closing

They are also trading away the entire future of the franchise for an all star that i don't think moves the needle enough.

They could package those two things and get better.

Philly don't s**t the bed in play offs and outside Embiid don't really get much from the refs. Simmons gets fouled most drives to the basket and gets nothing.

They were one of the most BS bounces away from a conference finals appearance two years ago and last year were just not good, they were the 1 seed during Jan and dropped off massively.

Poor roster construction, Bad coaching and no Simmons in the play offs as well.

This is a different team.

What a better option?

The future is over anyway when the curry era ends
Well as you pointed out Klay is coming off two career threatening injuries and Green is slowing down and often injured. Mortgaging the future for a border line all star is not smart.

They get someone that can move the needle or they hold Wiseman who could be a top 3 centre in the league one day and the Wolves pick which could be a great player if they nail it.

Rewatch the last quarter again - Embiid scored 14 points in the last 7 minutes including the tying 3.
Also elite defence in in the 4th

Anyone who says the refs lost that for the Jazz is kidding them self, the Jazz imploded big time.

If Mitchell chucking up shots for fun and mouthing of giving techs is all on the refs it shows he still has a ton of maturing to do.

Did the contending teams make mistakes trading in Jrue. PG. AD. Harden?

Vuc is an all star and there are not many better players. Very few available ones.
