Defensive specialist know their roles and the smart ones don't put themselves in positions where they have to do more than they are capable of.
Gobert seems to take zero effort into being smart on offense sans the offensive rebounding and screens. Cause if he were actively thinking about how to help his team on offense he wouldn't be asking for the ball in the post thinking "pass" when a 6'1 guard is on him. Like you seriously must not be thinking if you asked for the ball in that situation and didn't know what the right thing to do was.
I agree with you because Brook Lopez became a 3pt specialist at the tail end of his career and Rudy Gobert is about as good as a llama on offense, and has been his entire career
Brook had good FT and midrange numbers his entire career, someone like that usually has way more potential to expand that to the perimeter
Brook was always skilled though, dude was always good on offense… this is like comparing apples to llama oranges
