Where does Gobert rank out of the entire NBA ?

would easily trade rudy for:

curry, davis, harden, bron bron, kd, westbrook, cp3

so thats puts him about 8th in my mind (potential + today combined)(obv not a top 8 player today, honestly prob not a top 40 player today, due to his lack of offense, but the potential.....)
 
Pretty sure Wilt wished he had Rudy's gifts.

Really cp3....

I'm sorry but I donot see the love with cp3 that a lot of people have, including locke. The dude is not a winner. He is the main blame for the last three Clippers playoff exits, which includes no western confrence apperances!!!!

Gobert is quickly rising in value in the NBA. Where do rank him? Combine future and right now rankings


My rankings......

1. Lebron James
2. Kevin Durant
3. Anthony Davis
4. Steph Curry
5. Rudy Gobert
6. Russell Westbrook
7. James Harden
8. Everyone else


I know Westbrook and Harden are a lot more talented, and so are a lot of other players, but I think Rudy has a bigger impact. I'd honestly rather build my team around him if given the choice. Westbrook has the talent to be the best player in the NBA, but I'm not sure he'll ever get out of his own way. Harden doesn't bring enough defense.


It's crazy to think about. We actually snagged a top player in the league. Disagree? Tell me why.

I find myself pondering if Rudy will pass Dirk as the best Euro-player!
 
Harden is actually a good defender this year. Stop looking at the gif and his lowlight clips to rate his defense.

Rudy is easily top 40. Dude almost single handedly can turn the #27 ranked defense into an historic, best of all time defense. As long as they still play basketball two ways, that cannot be underestimated. Also, you would have to be an idiot to trade him for cp3.

I think the words you are looking for is that Harden is no longer a liability on defense. He is not getting any defensive awards though.

This guys is right. CP3 is a whiny bitch.

LeBron says hello.

But yeah, I get what you're saying. Utah's chance to contend is based on us having a 3&D team. Take away Gobert and our advantage on defense collapses. Rudy is going to have a statue outside the ESA someday. He and Favors will be Jazz lifers. Hayward I'm not so sure about. He could very well decide to opt out and leave. And frankly, if/when we get a true 3&D wing, he's the most replaceable.

This may sound crazy but I would not trade Rudy for Lebron. I hate Lebron and just could never see myself cheering for him. That and if we traded for him he would leave first opportunity he got.

What makes you think Hayward would decide to leave as opposed to Favors? I think we have shown our commitment to Hayward by giving him a huge contract even though it was a very risky move based on how he played last year. I honestly think the chemistry on this team is amazing and we are building something special right now. I could see our core pieces staying together for a long time kind of like what the Spurs have done.
