    Good chance he is because he’s actually a wing and not a center. I don’t think a center has ever been the best perimeter defender in the league. Maybe Bill Russell was but I can’t think of another time where that would have been true.

    If you want to change it to perimeter, no he is absolutely not the best perimeter defender in the league. That’s literally not possible at his height and mobility.

    Rudy is absolutely not elite guarding the perimeter, literally watch last year’s playoffs for the first time in your life.

    Gobert could easily do what Wilt did against unathletic, undersized white players. He easily would've been second best player after Wilt.

    To counter their dominance, league would've allowed more black players in.

    1. That wasn’t the post you were responding to in this case.
    2. He’s not. If he gets switched on to a talented perimeter player the opposing team is happy. I don’t expect him to be either, there’s not really much he could do to be any better on the perimeter than he is.

    the example you gave against Golden State Rudy was hobbled. If it was the regular season he wouldn't even have been playing. He missed a game in the previous series after tweeking his knee. You can see knee braces on. Same injury that keep him out a month 3 times in the regular season. You guys really have to dig

    I was responding to Gobert not being able to guard the perimeter. The other team is happy because he's not at the rim anymore

    So if Rudy is switched onto Steph at the 3PT line you think he’ll do a better job than Mike Conley would? Just using someone else on the Jazz.

    Gobert would need a brain transplant.

    Bill Russell won back-to-back titles while simultaneously serving as the head coach and the starting center of the Boston Celtics.

    He is not that bad as a player as many people make him out to be

    And he is also not that great as a player as many people make him out to be.
    Rudy Gobert has to be one of the most overragted players in NBA history. You're retarded.
