According To Woj All The Jazz Players Still Hate Rudy Gobert's Guts

Uhhhhhhhhhh ya think?

Not sure if you saw this last night during SVP's Sportscenter, but as we know Woj is pretty tapped in and honestly would it really surprise anyone if this were actually true? As of this second there hasn't really been any other reports that backs up Woj's statements, all we really have is Donovan Mitchell's Instagram post where you could argue he was taking some shots at Gobert for his actions that may or may not have resulted in Mitchell testing positive

As we know Gobert apologized for his actions and all that which is great and all, but according to Woj that doesn't seem to mean jack shit to his teammates. This is pretty important in the event the season ever does come back, the Jazz are right in the middle of a playoff race where they could finish anywhere from like the 3 seed all the way to the 6th. This is not exactly the best time to have drama and issues in your locker room. In the event the games come back and we skip to just the playoffs, well who knows if enough time will have gone by for there to no longer be issues. It's not like teams can be around each other right now and try and mend whatever damage there may be. 

Part of me thinks that once things get back to normal and everyone can focus on the season, this won't really matter in terms of the Jazz's playoff run. I mean we've seen teams go deep into the playoffs while everyone hates each other, that's not new. But we've also seen a lack of team chemistry get the best of a team that was supposed to be a contender (cough cough 2018-19 Celtics cough cough). 

Even if you are hesitant to buy what Woj is saying here, his reporting obviously comes from somewhere. That'd be a weird thing to just randomly make up and go on TV to report. Someone within the Jazz is talking so there's more likely than not some truth to this. It'd be pretty crazy is Gobert's actions didn't just shut down the league as a whole, but killed any sort of chance the Jazz had to make a deep run because now there's a giant rift. That would be some karma like you read about.
