there are few things in the NBA more beautiful than a man mountain backing his ass up for an in-yo-face slam, Shaq style.

[–] BallsAreFullOfPiss@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Classic basketball, honestly. Just as pleasing to watch, as seeing someone jack up a three and hit nothing but net.

paging Cam’ron

[–] _checkpickerupper@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (4 children)

Context: JJJ already picked up a foul and is one of two actual players on the grizzlies that can score. So…couldn’t take a chance on foul 2 two minutes into the game

JJJ in early foul trouble? A tale as old as time wow

[–] lonny__breaux@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I mean I don’t want to pile on to the Grizzlies but the DPOY should be able to guard a Rudy Gobert post up without fouling?

[–] OrganizationFar6086@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

He’s pretty good at picking up fouls

[–] dys0n_giddey@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

That's my DPOY

[–] SkipsPittsnogle@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Just look at that DPOY!!

[–] cl353@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

He's the Richard Sherman of the nba

[–] le_sweden@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Sherman contributed to a ring

[–] Lonzofanboy@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

seems like every DPOY candidate hate JJJ now. JJJ has to be prepared when facing Draymond next time.

[–] GriffinQ@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

For the incoming triple single or for the potential rear naked choke?

Lots of things to be prepared for with Draymond these days.

[–] writerwriter_27@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

You forgot the inevitable nut shot

[–] lurkperson1@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Dread it, run from it, Draymond's foot arrives in your balls all the same

[–] blackjacktrial@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Hey hey hey. He's worked hard to move his foot up the human body. Not sure if it's at chest stomping height or fully inside the open breathing mouth yet...

[–] Kramerica5A@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Is it just me, or does it feel like Dray's gonna go after Rudy the next time we play too? He obviously hasn't learned any lessons, so if anything I can see him being like, "fuck it, if I'm getting suspended anyway (his victim complex talking here) I might as well make it worth it"

[–] gochuuuu@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Brah how do you let gobert do this to you

[–] somedudeinlosangeles@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Mr. Chris Vernon just threw his remote.

[–] MVPG2022@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Nice highlight featuring the DPOY and Jaren Jackson

[–] Troll-e-poll-e-o-lee@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

JJJ gotta be one of the most overrated players. Glad he’s being exposed for this

[–] Benredbr1@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

his phony ass been exposed since the world cup

[–] HeHateMex2@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Rudy Gobert heard saying “Nah, I’d win”

Man sweating in front of two buttons meme

"Baguette Biyombo" vs "JJJ Truther"

[–] Rswany@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

A DPOY, too.

...And JJJ

[–] raki016@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (3 children)

How.

Gilbert doesn't even back down well

[–] Zoulzopan@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I am wondering that too.

[–] shazam482@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

It's a mismatch of the switch. Gobert's got the size advantage, so he went to town

[–] karmadontcare44@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

He will outsize nearly everyone 1v1 when he’s on an island like this. He can backdown fine.

His issue is holding onto the ball and making the right decisions when the D collapses.

This your DPOY?

[–] rudebwoy100@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Grown man move.

[–] BodegaDaddy@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

dpoy just got cooked in the post by a player that never posts up

[–] unclehelpful@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Rudy, a noted not very good offensive player, active sought out the current DPOY and backed him down and dunked on him?

Did anyone see any aliens at the FIBA World Cup? JJJ might have had his bball skills stolen by them.

There’s been 2 times it has happened before.

[–] mrblack07@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Nah, the aliens already stole them before the World Cup even started.

[–] doublea6@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

As a jazz fan this happens like 1 out of 50 attempts when gobert gets the ball in the post.

[–] bunnypoker24@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

defensive player my ass, brook lopez should of won it and it wasnt even close

[–] tpw2k3@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

This Minnesota team is fun to watch

[–] RevolutionaryKiwi897@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

More of that please

[–] baoparty@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago
[–] drmbrthr@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Shaq used to do that exact move like 8x per game

[–] AsizzlesU777@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

I’m happy for Rudy and the Wolves fan base

[–] sharklavapit@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago
[–] lame_user_0824@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

People mad at JJJ for not being a 5 is pretty unfair. Hes only 6'10 and not everyone can be AD. He's playing out of position

[–] McGinnis_921@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

There’s no way stop a highly skilled offensive player. You can only hope to contain him.

[–] EmergencyNail3862@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

JJJ the fakest DPOY ever

[–] genericusernamepls@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

The Rudy special. Sometimes he looks like a beast out there, other times he looks like a baby giraffe

[–] sonics_fan@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Grizz scorekeeper credited JJJ with a block and a steal on this play.

[–] mrblack07@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah, you gotta hand off that DPOY trophy if Rudy Gobert of all people seeks you out and bullies you in the post.
