I wonder how much influence Drays headlock had to flipping Gobert’s image. Seems like now he’s loved by everyone lol.

Really think the Mike Conley acquisition was very underrated. Not just for on the court but he's a vet and pretty much the definition of a professional. Looked like the chemistry was off with Dlo and Rudy last year.

Arod and the other guy silencing the haters.

I deadass didn’t even realize he went to Minnesota.

NGL, I thought this was going to be an ironic headline and he'd have the boo birds out hounding him for standing around or something, and I am PLEASANTLY surprised it's for legit reasons. Wolves deserve some kudos this season and Rudy's been a big part of the muscle of it. Very happy to see the crowd acknowledging it during the game like this.

That’s all they ever wanted, just some fight from the frenchy, just came 80 years to late

[–] Backdoorcuts9@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I remember a few Jazz games over the year where Rudy was the best player on the court simply from hustle and gritty play. He’s a fun, under appreciated player to watch when he’s clicking.

Mitchell Robinson is by far the best offensive rebounder in the league (he still grabbed 7 ORebs vs Gobert who had 7 total in the game). But he really gave Mitch a challenge. This is a good sign for the Wolves whenever they face Denver

[–] Alone-Information-35@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

As Cavs fan you love to see the Knicks get bodied on the boards. Also Rudy on my fantasy team, go get em king!

[–] iCatmire@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

But nephews will roast when he gets dunked on cuz he contests every play 🤦‍♀️

[–] DeathBySuplex@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Shit people still call Shawn Bradley a bust because he got dunked on a lot doing his job of protecting the rim and he was a goofy looking white dude from small town Utah.

He was a starting caliber center for 12 years and finished his career top 20 in career blocks, but tee hee get dunked on white boy, you a bust.

Where all the Rudy haters at I knew that trade wasn’t that bad as people were making it seem

As someone who casually watches the nba and don’t pay very close attention to what (this subreddits) opinion on players are, Rudy Gobert is a very interesting player; I can never figure out what Reddit’s opinion on him is at any given moment, it ranges from the devil himself to basketball messiah

Rudy Redemption arc almost complete. Ben Simmons arc due in 6-9 months time

[–] T_Tachi@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

so happy for Rudy and Wolves fans - they both deserve good things coming to them.

I saw this post title and thought surely it was hyperbole. Nope, straight up a standing O for good defence and effort on the glass. As a former hustle-player with zero offensive game, it brings a tear to my eye.

Fans who grew up with KG appreciate good defense.

[–] KSleepCHB5423@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Always loved Rudy because the dude is a straight up gamer

[–] StefonDiggsHS@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

wild Gobert was always doing this for them and now that theyre winning they only appreciate it

[–] WhizBangNeato@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Rudy Gobert redemption arc was not what i was expecting from this season.

[–] BZGames@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I thought all the people saying to wait for Ant to blow up or wait for Gobert and Towns to play together more were straight up coping just a couple months ago. Now the Wolves look like one of the best teams in basketball. Completely proved me wrong.

Seems like r/nba wrote it off as the worst trade in NBA history too quickly. (I thought it sucked that bad too lol)

[–] Euphoric_Travel6762@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nah they were cheering Naz Reid checking in.

I love this Timberwolves team. The Gobert trade looks perfect and they are clicking so well.

That's cool as hell. Noticing and acknowledging elite levels of glue guy, dirty work stuff.

Awesome.
