Reality check: Luka, Lebron, and AR combined for eight points on 3-of-12 shooting when guarded by Rudy Gobert in game 2

  3. I don’t think anyone is saying he wasn’t good defensively. Its that his is a negative on offense and balls were ricocheting off his hands left and right on the boards.

  4. Yeah Rudy’s defence has been great, especially against AR, just need him to rebound and actually make some putbacks. Pretty sure he missed like 4 easy putbacks last game and 6 rebounds is not acceptable when you’re the biggest guy on the court.

  5. I don’t think Rudy defense was bad at all, some of those shots were magical.

    The issue I had was that he was numb brains and didn’t rebound as efficiently. Like there were times where I was wondering why he was just watching the ball vs chasing rebound down.

  6. Yes buuuuuut I can think of at least 3 instances where Rudy and Jaden switched on like the 3rd hesi up fake from Luka that went in. Those are successful isos that are 95% on Rudy until the late switch

  7. From the moment Rudy blocked Luka, things changed with the Luka/Rudy match-up. Luka lost a ton of confidence

  9. Anyone who watched the game understood how well Rudy defended

    Unfortunately his rebounding and offense have been awful
