The Jazz's regular season results are always good, but in the playoffs, they are always not far away, and the 3-1 lead is reversed. In this year's playoffs, the first round lost 2-4 to the Lone Ranger, ending the season's journey early. With no further progress in succession, problems within the players, and a good chance that the team is on the way to disintegrate.
For Mitchell and Gobert, Jazz fans are still very optimistic about them, especially in the regular season, and always have good results. Originally, the outside world was also very much looking forward to them, but with the early exit again and again, the future of this team has become no longer clear. The combination of Mitchell and Gobert is likely to break up this summer, after all, there is already a gap between the two, and the team has not broken out.
After this exit, former NBA player Matt Barnes said bluntly: "Mitchell and Gobert will not wear jazz jerseys next season, this combination is over." ”
In this playoff, Gobert once again made the Mitchell camp dissatisfied, and the relationship between the two is no longer close. According to famed journalist Tim Mac Mahon, Gobert had praised Devon Booker's defense, much to the annoyance of people in Mitchell's camp.
In an interview at the time, Gobert said: "I've been watching him [Booker] and you can see that they're proud of their defense, doing everything they can to stop each other on the defensive end, and that's part of the culture of victory." ”
In response to Gobert's remarks, he violated the rules of the team's dressing room, which also completely annoyed the Mitchell camp. I believe that this summer, the Mitchell camp will make some measures to let the team choose between him and Gobert, after all, the relationship between the two is no longer what it used to be, and it is time to break up.
They still have a good market in the free market, Mitchell has a good future, and Gobert's defense is very good, which will attract the attention of some teams. For the Jazz, it is still not easy to cultivate Mitchell and Gobert, after all, they are small cities, can not attract big players to join, can only cultivate themselves, the previous Malone and Stockton, and then the later Delong, do not know who Mitchell and Gobert can stay.
