What's new

Rudy... sigh.

Kyoto doubling down to save embarrassment, only to make it worse lol
Seriously though, I know he is a monster defensively, but holy crap. You are one of the longest and tallest players in the league, we all know you have abs, put them to use. It happens ALL THE TIME where a much smaller player is guarding him in the post and he just flounders a shot up. It's annoying, just stop giving the ball to gobert on offense u less it's a lob. He's been in the league for what, 5 years? You can't have 1 offensive move in 5 years??? Its embarrassing

Sometimes I think our guys, especially Ricky, try to force the ball to Rudy when he has a mismatch like 10 feet away from the basket and he seems to turn it over a lot. But I don't mind it. Rudy plays his *** off on defense no matter how many touches he gets on offense, unlike a lot of bigs. Let the man take a funky jump-hook every game, he deserves it.

During the draft there was videos of rudy working on the 3pt shot. I'm not asking for rudy to do that, but what about a 8ft jumper or a baby hook? I just dont get it

He is 7'1" and cant back a 6'7" player in the paint? Its inexcusable

Lots of guys with his height and build have this problem. In fact, name me some guys as tall and thin as Rudy that are good at backing guys down in the paint.

Gobert has not only been the Jazz’s best player this season, he’s one of the best players in the NBA. Here are some statistical categories that Gobert is ranked in the top ten among qualified NBA players this season.

1st- FG %

1st- eFG %

1st- True Shooting %

2nd- Offensive Rating

3rd- Win Shares

3rd- Defensive Box Plus/Minus

6th- Blocks per game

7th- Rebounds per game

This has been a career season for Gobert so far, and he’s doing his best to keep the Jazz afloat. If it weren’t for him, the Jazz would be lost in oblivion. He’s carrying the Jazz on his shoulders and willing them to wins, one game at a time, with the hope of getting back ahead in the win column and into playoff position. If we’ve learned anything from Rudy, you don’t ever, ever count him out.




I'm getting sick of seeing people say that Rudy is struggling or having a down year. (It's not a lot of people but at least 4 that I can think of)

Totally agree with this. Gobert has been BY FAR our best player this year from anyone else on the team. It's not even close

I have seen him utilize a nice baby hook quite a few times.
Your wish has been granted.

It’s not like anyone else is scoring. If he ever gets a baby hook to keep the defense honest like Steven Adams then we become contenders
 
To make it clear, I like rudy a lot. I just get annoyed when he is only good for a lob on offense. With his athletic ability he should be able to back down smaller opponents. I just dont get it

Some people will always see the glass as half empty, but I'm not sure you're even seeing the glass at all.
 
If he was all offense and no defense people would be upset. He is all defense and no offense and he is a god. I dont get it.

He isn't 'no offense.' It's just that he doesn't produce much offense from the post, which is not a particularly efficient way to score anyway.

This is a really dumb critique tbh.

Rudy's high center of gravity makes it harder for him to move defenders. He's only 250 lbs. Physics.
