I know its popular to crap on Gobert but I think Kyle is the one who is at fault here. Kyle is a horrible defender who makes mental mistakes all the time. I bet Gobert was hounding Kyle to be accountable and fix his mistakes, Kyle got triggered, mouthed off, then Gobert had enough of it. If you are playing Kyle heavy minutes you are in big trouble 🤷‍♂️

There is a reason Gobert is a multiple DpoY winner, his ability to defend divers on PnRs and make players think twice about driving are his strengths. He isn’t completely without faults of course, he is horrible defending the perimeter but your team shouldn’t be putting him in those situations. Brook Lopez is the same way, he gets played off the floor if there is too much penetration or stretch bigs.

Gobert is massively overrated and always has been. His DPOYs are a joke, and came as a result of the media voters overvaluing counting stats and rim protection and not actually looking at which player added the most defensive value to their team.

Nah, I think Gobert deserved it over Giannis and PG13 in 2018-19.

Having guards that allow a ton of penetration like DLo and Mitchell aren’t supporting what Gobert does. Part of what makes Lopez and Giannis so effective is Jrue. Same thing with JJJ…

Gobert has always been over rated since day one. In everyones mind he is supposed to be a 20-10 big. A Bosh, a Dwight Howard, a Jonas Valenciaunas.... But he isnt as good at scoring as all those guys mentioned. Rudy also gets paid as a 20-10 Big man, which is egregious. he has never averaged more than 16ppg in his life. His DPOY titles are a sham because he was surrounded by tier 1 shooters and wing protection which allowed him to actually play as an old school 5. When the natural order for a DPOY nowadays is to be a floor general and get steals and disrupt shots not just rim protect and block dunks.

Gobert has always been over paid and never ever hit the mark these Stans say of him. He was never a 20/10 man and Bosh Howard Vuc Valenciunas Yao, Gasol, Gasol... all of these mans were actually 20/10 big men and all of them got paid less than Gobert.

He’s a defensive liability in certain situations which are easy to manipulate by any competent offense. His weaknesses are extremely easy to exploit. He can’t be the best defensive player in the league if offenses literally hunt him

Anthony Edwards post game interview

“I wanna be surrounded by a group of guys who got one common goal, team chemistry is everything, a situation like the Milwaukee Bucks for example, all about winning and togetherness. I just want what’s best for my future”
