look at that stupid face on rudy. I know he was saying "Sacre bleu" in his head

[Xiao Yao You]

Poor trolls. Gobert on the brain :roll:

Let's go Luka Lakers :applause:
Love watching loser low IQ players get exposed. Reminds me of Duncan schooling Cousins. That was an amazing moment. Shoved that "DPOY" trophy up his ass. DPOY...that's funny as hell.

[Xiao Yao You]

Divenchenzo back. Some good news for minny

[90sgoat]

Minny without Gobert suck.

[Xiao Yao You]

Wheres naz and garza when you need them?

[Xiao Yao You]

Minny without Gobert suck.

Enough with facts already!

[Proctor]

Minny without Gobert suck.
Hint: they suck with him too. Edwards and Reid isn't enough

[Xiao Yao You]

You forgot garza

[90sgoat]

Wolves and Ant zero match for Luka Lakers. Look like a lottery team.

[90sgoat]

Knecht kind of sucks, I get why they tried to trade him. Rookie and all, so his peak is probably poor man's MPJ.

[90sgoat]

Looks like Reddick has Lakers aggressively double teaming ballhandlers and they can't deal with it.

[Xiao Yao You]

Time for garza. Naz continuing to show why hes a bench player

[SouBeachTalents]

Let's go Luka Lakers :applause:
GOAT gif

[Mask the Embiid]

LeCurry already up to 4 threes at half. How many will he end up with? 6? 8? 15? Stay tuned.

[90sgoat]

Ant got ejected.

[Proctor]

Edwards and Gobert...two headcases on the same team. :facepalm

[Xiao Yao You]

Ant got ejected.

Garza time!

[imdaman99]

Luka been trash up until that crazy 3

[imdaman99]

Was rooting for a timber pups comeback like they did against OKC but refs had other ideas. Everything is a foul on 1 end, Nazi Reid gets t'd up for saying call the same call on the other end :lol

Game became unwatchable once refs said Lakers have to win tonight

[SouBeachTalents]

Wolves put up a hell of a fight without their best player/other rotation player, but LeGod was just too good tonight.

[Manny98]

LeSharpshooter almost up to 40% from 3 and anchoring the hottest defense in the league at age 40

I'd argue LeBron is still top 5 in the NBA especially come playoff time

It's actually blowing my mind how ****ing good he still is

[Xiao Yao You]

Wolves put up a hell of a fight without their best player/other rotation player, but LeGod was just too good tonight.

Yeah if gobert plays instead of the naz and garza shit show they obviously win. Naz back to the bench where he belongs will make a huge difference

The last time Toody played they lost to the Bucks without Giannis and Dame. :lol

[Xiao Yao You]

Guessing he didnt go 1-10. Im guessing hes never went 1-10 though

[tontoz]

He would have done that plenty of times if he actually tried to shoot outside 3 feet. :lol

[Xiao Yao You]

Instead he plays to his strengths and excels. 6th man vs future hall of famer :cheers:

One guy can shoot and one guy struggles just to catch the ball, let alone shoot it.

[Neal Romer]

One guy can shoot and one guy struggles just to catch the ball, let alone shoot it.


Yeah thats the big thing. Toods has a great shooting percentage but it doesnt reflect how many possessions he fumbles away trying to get hold of a simple pass. So much so that his teammates are reluctant to even throw him the ball.

The only player Rudy could truly thrive with is Lebron, so maybe thats where they need to send him this offseason.

[Xiao Yao You]

Just because randle cant throw a lob doesnt make all his teammates reluctant. Throw it at his ankles like the matador and he will have a hard time going down and getting it. Throw it up above everyone its a dunk. Hill, hayward, ingles and conley certainly had no problem with it. Again facts and trolls just dont mix. Lets make some shit up based on one play :roll:

Rudy's been struggling to catch passes his whole career. I googled 'rudy gobert struggles to catch passes' and got countless results, most from previous years. :lol

Here is the most recent vid documenting the problem.

And im sure their are videos of gim catching and dunking. He had bad hands when he came in as a skinny project. Put in the work and set the record for dunks in a season. From length project to springfield from hard work

[BarberSchool]

^Would it surprise you to know that I’ve never met in real life, a self-professed Rudy Gobert fan who wasn’t a black woman ?

And still struggles to catch routine passes. Other than Conley everyone on the team is reluctant to pass to him because he fumbles the ball so often.

And still struggles to catch routine passes. Other than Conley everyone on the team is reluctant to pass to him because he fumbles the ball so often.I think he genuinely might have some of the slowest reaction time, of any modern NBA player. And very likely a very low bandwidth of information exchange on the nerve bridge between his radial and ulnar nerves.

Part of that can always be attributed to limb length, and low levels of fast twitch muscle mass in the respective limbs.

But part of that slow reaction time, isn’t just crazy length and lack of fast twitch muscle mass to quickly move the limbs. Especially when the hands require indepenedant digit manipulation, much of those tasks, hinge on that nerve bridge between the radial and ulnar nerve having sufficient communicative bandwidth. And it’s wild to find out just how much that bandwidth varies between haplotypes.

:roll:

If you throw the ball up its a dunk. If you throw it at his ankles hes going to have a hard time. Pretty simple but i get most players today are limited in their skill set. Youd think throwing a lob would be easy enough but apparently it isnt. Stockton and i never threw a lob but im guessing we could have

[Xiao Yao You]

Thing is it wasnt automatic with conley at first. Hed be running post and pop with gasol. But hes skilled and has an old school geel that appaently is lost on the yonger generation and was able to figure it out. Its too bad they will never reach their potential because like mitchell ant cant run pick and roll with the best player

[Xiao Yao You]

Stockton and malone had each other. Gobert has had to settle for hill hayward ingles and conley. Hes made the most of a less than ideal situation

That vid wasn't showing passes at his ankles. It was showing passes to his chest that he fumbled over and over.

Why would you throw it at his chest when he can get up higher than everyone and dunk it on their head?

[Manny98]

Timberwolves are so average without Towns, they may miss the playoffs

[Xiao Yao You]

You can pit videos together to support any view you have

https://www.nba.com/jazz/news/rudy-gobert-sets-new-nba-single-season-dunk-record

Cant imagine he fumbled too many that year. I believe he was on pace for more in the pandemic year

[tontoz]

Why would you throw it at his chest when he can get up higher than everyone and dunk it on their head?

You throw it to his chest because that requires the least amount of movement to catch the ball. You don't have to reach way up or way down.

Not every pass is going to be a lob situation right at the rim.

Bro, this lunatic has been posting about Gobert literally nonstop for like 5 days now, why are you even engaging with him :lol

It'd be like trying to have a discussion with 3ball, you should know better.

His advantage is being able to get up higher than everyone else. If the other team cant touch the ball it is an advantage. Winning vs losing

So when he was posting up and Randle didn't pass him the ball Randle should have passed it way up high, when Gobert wasn't even in position to jump? Cool story bro

He threw one at goberts feet earlier in the game. You figure it out. Conley did. Ingles did. Hayward did. Hill did. High iq players vs low iq players

[Xiao Yao You]

Their lives revolve around gobert and i of you hadnt noticed. Wolves play jazz tonite so depending on the result they might have to start another thread. Minny should win regardless so likely will be a thread unless gobert plays

You didn't answer the question. What a surprise.

When a guy is posting up his feet are wide and he is leaning on the defender, not a good time for a lob pass. Duh

[Xiao Yao You]

Says more about randle than gobert. You figure it out. In the dunk video i showed they arent all lobs. A few guys figured it out. Ant, mitchell, randle the matador couldnt. Let them run iso if thats all they can do

This fuy would haven taken his game to new heights with gobert vut rudy would be back to covering multiple players at the other end

[Xiao Yao You]

No rudy. Big problem

[warriorfan]

No rudy. Big problem

tbh it’s more the fact they are missing 40 mil cap of talent/players, not gobert and his negative spacing and stone hands

[Xiao Yao You]

Having a rim runner can improve spacing. I realize that is hard for trolls to get that fragile minds around. 5 defenders on the perimeter and a fuy rolling to the rim. Someone has to defend that space as well. The stone hands that holds the record for dunks in a year not for turnovers. Facts over fiction
