Following the 115-112 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans this past Monday, Rudy Gobert complained about the Utah Jazz lacking the requisite energy.
Rudy Gobert said the Jazz didn't have it defensively: "From the beginning of the game, I feel like we didn’t have enough energy, and they just felt good. They’re a very talented team … they’ve been playing well. And we gave them a lot of confidence early." pic.twitter.com/MSqf6tH32A

Considering the Pelicans managed only 38 points in the first 18 minutes of the contest, Gobert’s argument is a curious one.
