Today's NBA playoffs are off for a day because all the first-round showdowns yesterday are over and teams can take a day off.
But for the Utah Jazz, a busy summer may have just begun. In the first round of the showdown, the well-formed Jazz team was eliminated by the Dallas Mavericks by a 2-4 aggregate score, stopping the first round. The main result of this is that the Jazz team is not united enough to play the real strength of the lineup.
After the loss, many contradictions and problems will be completely exposed, and the Jazz core Mitchell and Gobert are like this. Today, tim McMahon, a well-known Basketball journalist in the United States, wrote an article revealing that the contradictions within the Jazz's locker room have reached a point where they cannot be hidden, specifically That Gobert has completely annoyed Mitchell.
In early January, Gobert praised Phoenix Suns guard Booker, saying that Booker was good defensive and criticizing the jazz's other players for not defending well. This incident made Mitchell very unhappy, thinking that Gobert was weird on himself in the yin and yang. Now that the Jazz are out, the matter has been re-turned over.
In fact, the contradiction between Gobert and Mitchell has a long history, and it has existed in early 2020, because Gobert usually does not pay much attention to hygiene, and he is the first player in the NBA to fall ill. Then Mitchell fell ill, and he was angry with Gobert.
It is worth mentioning that the Jazz have had poor performances for several consecutive years, and have reached the point where they have to tear down and rebuild. The Los Angeles Lakers recently took a fancy to Jazz head coach Snyder, hoping to bring in the manager. If the Jazz really want to break up Mitchell and Gobert, then Snyder may also be replaced, which is definitely a good opportunity for the Lakers.
