Predict the Rudy Gobert trade

Dallas ranked dead last in possessions per game at 98 this year.

They went to isolation 1/4 of their possessions in the playoffs per game. Rudy is the only player with enough qualified possessions against isolation that averaged over 1.26 PPP. Hell besides Conley nobody on the team allowed more than 0.96 PPP.

Just interesting to me is all.
 
Would it kill you to argue in good faith?

Nobody is arguing the possessions don't matter. There's a difference between a possession mattering and a possession being representative of what would happen over the course of a much larger sample size. The Mavs understood this, which is why they didn't try it more than a couple times per game.

A couple of times per game? Lol you mean 20-25% of their possessions?

Why iso anybody when they could just keep dribbling towards the paint, watch Rudy always come down, and then his player is wide freaking open after a pass or two?

It's funny how you guys get so upset when we run iso on offense because we don't run our "mixer". We don't run the mixer in the playoffs because it can be shut down due to our limited offensive weapons.

Then you brag on our success at stopping iso without admitting that the other team uses their "mixer" to abuse our unsuccessful defense.
 
Okay, back to predicting the Rudy trade....

If Quin is destined for San Antonio, and Quin obviously loves Rudy so much, just trade Rudy to San Antonio for everything they are willing to give? Seems like a match made in Rudy/Quin lovers heaven.
