The main topic of conversation in the Golden State Warriors’ locker room after their 30-point loss to the Jazz this week involved one player in particular.
Was trading for quarterback Alex Smith a good idea for Washington’s football team?
So maybe the blowout loss didn’t mean much to the reigning champs, but could it help kickstart a second-half turnaround for the Jazz?
On this episode of the Weekly Run, our Jazz basketball podcast, we look at Rudy Gobert and Ricky Rubio’s impacts on Utah’s three-game winning streak, discuss a bunch of trade deadline deals and rumors, and look at the Jazz’s bid to bring the All-Star Game back to Salt Lake City.
