A lot of people criticized his offense. The lowlights looked really bad back then (the ones where he looks like he can barely catch a pass). I always knew he was a interior defense monster. Eventhough I'm not a fan of his huge contract, I'm glad that he's playing to this amazing level.

He was our best player most of the year. It’s just that he was injured for a lot of it and that hobbled what he could do

In this era of shooters and offensive prowess, seeing a defensive juggernaut getting hype up with defensive plays is something unique and extraordinary. Love the defence and Rudy should definitely win DPOY again! 💯

I think a reason why gobert closes out more often now is because he has more confidence in his teammates that they can pick up the slack to defend the paint. Previously in Utah, they really lacked other defensive options as mentioned so it seemed to me that he was hesitant to close out and it led to some lowlights in the playoffs. This season I think the timberwolves finally figured it out on the defensive end and it shows.

Did he have to stay home because he was weak on the perimeter, or did have have to stay in his kingdom because the Jazz's perimeter was so bad, he had no choice but to stay in the paint? I would argue that Rudy has had the ability to defend well everywhere in the half court for at least 4 years now. You didn't see it a lot in Utah, but you would see the glimpses of it occasionally.

Always said the Utah situation wasn't his fault and that the team's roster is what's making him look bad. Jazz simply did not have have the perimeter defenders that can close out on shooters, rotate properly or even slow down penetration. This is why there is so many clips of Gobert running around trying to both defend the corner AND the paint.

I always knew Mitchell and others play 0 defense and Gobert just covers them sorry asses

He's exceptional in terms of patience and timing, and very mobile for a guy his size. It really makes you appreciate what Jokic and Doncic have been doing to him in the playoffs.

Got great tickets to see the Wolves at the last minute a couple weeks ago for like $20 and watching Rudy in person was like a masterclass and the rest of the team was also brilliant. It's a shame Minnesota doesn't care about basketball but I'm going to take full advantage.

What makes Gobert the perfect Center for the Antman is he doesnt command to get the ball inside. He prefers to set up a pick and he will roll. Or just go for offensive rebounds.

As a wolves fan we deserve this season after what we’ve had to witness

where are those idiots,who called me idiot last season. when i said gobert was still adjusting and he need time or even a season to be effective on his new team.

Great video, he definitely deserves DPOY

That video name is wild😂😂😂😂

that pop off in the middle of the play made me respect this guy so much more

watching team detterance of rudy give you a glimps of how wemby one could be in future years

Good to see Rudy back to form !

Let's see if he can maintain this level come playoff time

honestly shoutout Gobert. He went from getting clowned left and right and giving the league covid to this. I used to be a hater but his performance made me switch up

Would love to see a video on Wemby's stats. Unlilke Gorbert, he has no other defensive support. T-Wolves are solid defensively without him, no doubt better with him on the floor. I think Wemby should be DPOY if the Spurs had a .500 record

He is so fierce inside that's why opponents always try to take him outside.

This is Udoka’s Defense that he started with TimeLord and Horford years ago. Exact same tactics.

@SKORNorthMN 04:30 they call ‘never minds’ ‘rim deterrence’ it’s out there!

Just knowing he's behind you allows guards to HOUND the perimeter on defense and if they get by you well, have fun trying to score on THAT DUDE in the paint. Lol 😊

defense wins championships. their offense will eventually come alive, it's been clunky and a work in progress but they're middle of the pack offensively. KAT and NAZ are the only 50/40/90 guys in the league currently, so they have plenty of firepower.

Rudy Gobert, Victor Wembanyama, that"s the guys in the paint for Team France. Think about that.

Him being traded to the wolves might damaged his reputation and career accolades but that made him hone his defensive skills more in the perimeter and not getting baited by fakes

i love that if rudy gobert gets a dpoy and a chip with ant and kat he could legit be a hof player

The Gobert's haters are so funny to read and listen lmao. This dude is an elite defender but for some reason he's still depreciated. But when you ask reliable argument you hear nothing but hate and void. These haters are like the footix for basket what a pitty. Nevertheless for my compatriot Rudy I am so glad he upgrade his level from past year. From now on with 20 games played yes he is the DPOY far enough from the competition (to the haters : I wait your counter arguments with facts and stats with delight lmao). But a season is 82 games, I wish him to continue playing with such a good defensive level. For the playoff argument, DPOY is like MVP it's based on regular season (Greatings to Embiid lmao). Will be tough in the east for Minesota to grab a Final conference place. But I wish them that.

I'm a simple man... I see Wolves video. I click video. I like video.

i think the thing that rudy gobert is shining on defense is because of the team defense that twolves have unlike when he was on jazz

Gobert gets so much hate by casual NBA fans it's crazy. The man is a beast on both sides of the floor. Yes he can not post up and shoot but he just doesn't do things he can't do. But he does a lot of things nobody else does as well as he does. The Jazz were the number 1 seed in the west when he was in Utah and now the Wolves are. It is no coincidence.

I used to think he was overpaid but to his credit he’s solid on offense and obviously his his defense is elite

Nice

Lakers vs Minnesota is gonna be great. Defense vs Defense

Wemby rim deterrence > Gobert rim deterrence

If there wasn't a 3 second violation there would be more elite centers and Rudy might win x5 defensive player of the year. People hate on him but he's a dominant defender

tell it Draymond :DD

Think another big piece has been KAT's leap defensively. Gobert feels more comfortable leaving a big when they're playing man than in the past because KAT has been so much better on defense this year.

It might be just me, but it looks like Rudy has gotten slimmer, which has helped his mobility.

Our Rudy is a fanatic hard worker. 🇨🇵

The fist pump against Chet

Called it last season when ppl were trashing the Gobert trade. Yes, of course, Minny traded too much. Told that give some time next year it'll be better cuz: Edwards better, KAT healthy, Finch good coach, and Rudy is a defensive anchor. Actually, he's much more: he's a defensive SYSTEM. DPOY runner this year by far (but AD will get all the love in the media)
