In defense of Gobert though, he's working a job in a pretty competitive environment where machismo (for lack of a better word) is still a thing, and it probably wasn't the only time Anderson said it. Additionally, Anderson apparently was telling him to block shots or something and was calling him a bitch while he played this game hurt. So I can see where Gobert is coming from. He should have just told Anderson that his wang was small or something, but I don't think Gobert is the complete villain here like many are making him out to be.
That would be my plan too.

Now there's a much better response!

The most surprising thing about this whole debacle has been Slo Mo being outed as a ****-talking ego monster. I mean, what?
Making Kyle swing on HIM would’ve been something. But given how baked in the narrative on Gobert is, he would’ve been dogged on for being rushed also.

Agreed. Plus you cant get away with throwing a punch if you are nba player in that situation. There are people to break it up and you have job security (guaranteed contract) and you are set for life financially.
For gobert worst case scenario is he kocks out anderson and get suspended and fined and maybe sued but still has an amazing job and is rich as ****.
Me throwing a punch in a walmart parking lot or something could literally ruin my entire life in a worst case scenario.

If you get punched after calling somebody a bitch and call the cops, you’re a bitch.

Real eyes, realize, real lies. And hoopers like DLo, Donovan, Slo Mo, etc have had problems with this dude because they see that he's fraudulent.

Some people use world but i'm not sure they know the sense. Calling Rudy fraudulent is as stupid as calling Don a superstar. Rudy is 3 times best defender in NBA, leading season rebound and block many years, that's not fraudulent. Don is a star player not a superstar yet, the day he carry his team to a title, he will get the superstar status.
I totally understand some fans in Minny considering they pay way too much for Rudy. I also understand people beeing disapointing with Rudy season as he did not get a good one. Overpaid probably, overated ( this year) probably, but fraudulent, come on.....

He is a fraud offensively

14 pt per game, i would not call that a fraud or 90% of NBA playwers are a fraud. But i agree with you, never managing to get a decent shoot is not a good achievement.
I tonight watch Rudy. He no jump like before. He must injured. He look weak too.

yes he play with back injury. He probably not play if it was not an importnt game. But it help to keep KAT on the bench a bit more and avoid him to get 5 fouls too early.

My issue is his inability or willingness to improve his offensive game he simply does not have a desire for it. He will be a counterfeit in my books
You think that Rudy Gobert has no desire for an offensive game?
Have you met a human? No, ****ing seriously, have you met a human?
Get ****ing real, man.

Coming to terms with him sucking as an offensive basketball player is hard to accept especially from individuals like you. Ainge knew he was a scrub and dealt his ***, now Minnesota is seeing it. He will go down as being the worst trade in NBA history and the twolves definitely have buyers remorse. Do yourself a favor and calm the F down. Kessler has already surpassed him.
You are avoiding the point.
You said he had no desire for an offensive game. You said that.
That is what I objected to. You think Gobert just arrogantly has rejected developing an offensive game?
That's what you did and that was dumb.
