If you're defense doesn't impact winning in the regular season, you can't be the DPotY. Period. Quit saying it's an individual award because it is not that simple. The scoring title is a simple award because it's strictly based on numbers. MVP and DPotY are both awards based off the interpritation of numbers and and other nuances. Just as the MVP can't go to a player where winning hasn't been a factor, same goes where a DPotY needs to prove that that players' defense actually makes an impact. The addition of Gobert gave the Wolves defense a noticable jump. It's more than his individual numbers. It's his leadership on that side of the ball. It's his presence in the paint that allows McDanials, Ant, NAW, Conley and even Reid and Kat to go ham on that side of the court. It's those factors that made Rudy the best defender in the league this year. I fully expect Wemby to fully eclipse his his French predecessor, but it hasn't happened yet. And on top of it all, recent history proves these two fellers wrong. Gobert did impact this series vs the Nuggets, and while he did get cooked by an all time great, just like all the notable DPotY of the past were prone to be, there were at least 4 games in this series where Gobert helped the wolves take the edge and come out victorious. It's true that the wolves needed all 21 feet of their big men to win this game, but it's also true that Gobert, by the mouth of the team and the coach, was the one who brought the defense first culture to this franchise. A culture that is their identity as a team, a culture that defeated the defending champs.

I understand rondo has a great basketball mind but he’s still thinking as if it’s the 2000’s. The game has evolved. There aren’t many post scorers in today’s NBA. In todays NBA the job of a center is not to be a post defender 1 on 1. It’s to be a rim protector playing 5 on 5. Even if Rudy is the worst post defender in the league the value he brings as a rim protector has completely changed the Timberwolves. I refuse to join in on the delusion that he isn’t good on defense.

Almost all of you guys are talking shit based on bullshit. Look at the numbers. The best player in the world makes a bunch of ridiculous shots in 1 game and everyone pretends like Rudy is a scrub. He's not the best 1-on1 defender necessarily, but he's great in so many other ways that help a team win. He had trash teammates on the Jazz who couldn't help out. Now you see what he can achieve in concert with good teammates. 70 pts and 80 pts in a series against one of the best modern offenses of the past several years. It IS a team award, but they make it individual because we're obsessed with the myth of individuality in US cuture and hemce US team sports. So if they're gonna have an individual award, he's as deserving as anyone. I digress. Rudy has exceptional numbers in terms of opponent FG% in the paint and great numbers guarding isos on the perimeter. The bullshit old narratives and knee-jerk trashing of the man based on 1 game here and there need to stop. Tell me who is stopping Jokic when he's on 1 like in game 5? Jackals.

No one on that team was good defensively yet they were the best defensive team in the league. * McDaniels and Reid don't get cooked because their help defender is the DPOY. That's literally the best help defense in the league. Even when their defenders get by them they still have to go through the DPOY to score. Rudy basically covers their lapses. GREAT OFFENSIVE PLAYERS FOCUS MORE ON HELP DEFENSE BECAUSE THEY CAN BEAT THEIR DEFENDERS ON ONE-ON-ONE MATCH UPS. * AD plays like 5 games a season and we want to give him awards. Let him play enough games before we can have that discussion. * Anyone can get cooked on a good night. Even Jordan got torched on some nights. Getting torched in 1 game out of 82 doesn't make you a bad defender. FINALLY, NBA VETS AND PLAYERS CAN'T BELIEVE THAT A SOMEONE CAN WIN THE DPOY AWARD WITHOUT KNOCKING PEOPLE DOWN AND THROWING ELBOWS. THAT'S PART OF THE REASON WHY THEY ALSO SAY DWIGHT IS SOFT.

i think rudy is a great great defender and deserved all dpoy awards, but he can also be countered easily. especially playoffs where all things is magnified. because he has strength and weakness defensively. and with how much offensive talent we have in NBA its easily countered if youre not a versatile defender like AD or Giannis that you can move your feet. but he has strenght for sure and deserve the awards

Rachel has to defend Rudy because when she did that interview way back with jimmy butler when he was with Minnesota and they trashed karl anthony towns the media had to hype Rudy Gobert so he could replace karl Anthony towns as all nba third team that year to legitimize and support Rachel for giving jimmy that platform to trash his own team mate the media been over hyping rudy ever since so thank rachel and jimmy butler

If Rudy Gobert was a U.S player there were so much respect on him. Dikembe Mutombo 4 time DPOY ? yes and he played Shaq in his prime in 2001 final : Shaq's stats ? ... 33pts 16reb 5ast 3.5blocks !!! When you play one of the best player all time in his prime you can't do anything individualy ? Can you understand that. Rondo was one of the most intelligent player in the court but his hate against rudy blind him its just so sad.

The problem is that he is soft as charming not only physically but mentally man he couldn't back down in the post freaking guards on offense and was moved away like a toy for the rebounds by guards! In a lot of Playoffs series with Utah and his body is slow remember of Shawn Bradley in this aspect. Every good Big man cooked him. He doesn't like contact he is banged easly and in offense is a hole. I watched Gasol and Scola cooked him in Fiba basketball being 40 years old both and him in his prime.

It's raining and I'm bored... The Timberwolves were the 13th ranked defense in 2022. That defensive style was built around gambling for steals and blocks and got exposed for not being able to rebound in the playoffs against the Grizzlies. 2023, the Wolves trade for Rudy Gobert, but kept a majority of the core defensive players, with the exception of Vando :(. Rudy came into the season pretty banged up from FIBA plus the rest of his teammates needed time to acclimate and understand how to play a completely new defensive style with him as the anchor... Also, had to get rid of D Lo's defense. They still ended up with the 10th rated defense. This season, Rudy and the wolves came into training camp with the mentality that they needed a defensive identity to win, and that's what they did. They had the #1 defense in the league through the whole season and it wasn't even close. It's hard to parachute in and only watch Rudy during national TV games and the playoffs to understand how much positive impact he has... but he has the best plus/minus in THIS years playoffs. Also, he doesn't guard Jokic 1-on-1 because that's not the Wolves defensive strategy, and it shouldn't be. He "guards" Aaron Gordon and lurks just outside the paint so Gordon can't cut in and catch lobs while Jokic get's double teamed. The Wolves have used this strategy for 2 seasons now, and it's by far the most effective strategy that any team in the league has for Jokic. Gordon had 4 points and 4 rebounds in Game 7, and the Wolves beat the defending champions on their home court. Rudy is the defensive player of the year.
@gioms40207 ай бұрын
Y’all say this aged bad, but I think it still holds true. Rudy stepped up in the 3rs and 4th of g7 by making big energy plays, mostly on the offensive end. Sure he got a couple of blocks that game, but if we talk about the series overall, Rudy couldn’t gaurd jokic, plain and simple. Whenever the nuggets needed a bucket they swung it to jok in the post and he pieced Rudy up with great effiency. Put wemby in Rudy’s position and the wolves would’ve won in 5. Not to mention that Rudy’s soft as hell

Rudy’s defense completely changed that Utah/OKC series back in 2018. He didnt allow Russ nor PG to get anything at the rim and he cancelled out OKC’s best strength. Other than that, I get everything they’re saying here. Its a regular season award though and he’s been great defensively in the regular season prior to getting exposed in the Playoffs
