Hibbert works incredibly hard. He is extremely nonathletic and has asthma. He has come a long way since being in the league, kind of retarded to hate on his work ethic.

only reason hibbert played well against the jazz in utah was that gobert was in foul trouble early. His second foul came from flop. That's when pacers took a giant lead. gobert has higher ceiling than hibbert.

Yeah because I think Gobert can do the off-the-statsheet things Hibbert does but do a little more individual stuff (rebound out of area, more weakside blockss, and offensive rebounds). He will probably never be as good of a post defender as Hibbert is though just because he lacks the mass.

He does lack the mass, but he is so much more mobile than hibbert. I know that doesn't help with post defense, but it helps everywhere else. If he gets a little more mass and strength, he could be legendary all around defender.

The one thing I hope rudy could learn from hibbert is how smart hibbert is at using what he has. I remember a podcast of hibbert being interviewed about learning how to play defense the way a guy who is basically glued to the floor has too. Hibbert readily admits he is not athletic, but works extremely hard for position and knows how and when to move. It is why he was/is a DPOY candidate.
 
Will always love Hibbert. Good dude.
