"F**k your predictions": Rudy Gobert takes shots at haters like Shaquille O'Neal after Jazz overtake LeBron James' Lakers with 10 straight wins

Utah Jazz star big Rudy Gobert shares an NSFW message on Twitter as the Jazz string 10 consecutive wins with great chemistry on both ends.

The Utah Jazz have overtaken the Los Angeles Lakers. They’re sitting pretty on top of the points table. The Jazz now boast a league-best 14-4 record. After having a lukewarm 4-4 start to their season, the Utah Jazz have found their groove and strung ten wins in a row to get to the league’s top spot.

There have been a lot of people who overlook the Jazz due to the lack of a ‘big name’ or a ‘bonafide’ star. However, the way the Jazz are playing this season, it seems like they are ready to prove all the naysayers wrong.

Rudy Gobert has a strong message for everyone

The Jazz beat the Mavericks 116-104 last night. With that win, the Jazz now sit on top of the points table, and lead the league, dethroning the Lakers. Rudy Gobert had something to say about it.

There could have been numerous reasons Rudy Gobert chose to write such a tweet. It could have been frustrated from the fact that Jazz have often been overlooked as a genuine championship contender, even though they have regularly performed excellently. It could also be something personal such as Shaquille O’Neal going after first him and then making comments on Donovan Mitchell.

Rudy Gobert is averaging 13.4 points for the season, which is the lowest he has since the 2015-16 season. However, he’s compensating for that by averaging a career-high in rebounds(14.2) and blocks(2.8). The lack of points is compensated by the firepower the Jazz boast in their roster.

It should be interesting to see how long the Jazz can keep their undefeated streak alive. They face the Mavericks next on 29th, for the second matchup of their baseball series.
