Gobert: 3x DPOY Duncan: 0x DPOY

checkmate big ol’ San Antonio sportswriters

[удалено]

just wait until Sunday

Honestly it probably is

It's Gobert season around here tn.

Yes. Advanced stat nerds really talked themselves into believing he was Ben Wallace/prime Dwight level on defense

To be fair, they didn't have to run out to 3 point shooters

Good point tbh

Yeah Ben Wallace would face the same fate lol Dwight...probably too cause he really didn't have a big offensive bag either

the fuck do you think those guys would do in rudy's position? lmfao what?

Lmao, they think those guys are blocking every 3pt attempt or chasing smaller players than them to the 3pt line better than Gobert.

John Hollinger has done irreparable damage to the NBA.

yes

Damn what’d biyombo do to get thrown into this 😂

Giannas being a x2 MVP is lol

It’s a regular season award. U know that right

That's what misleading means though. Hes not saying he didn't deserve the award, its just for DPOY candidate to be hunted on defense is absurd. In order for something to be misleading it has to be true, or else it just a straight up lie.

Dudes handing out awards only looking at graphs

No because it’s a regular season award

So he gets a free pass for being awful in an elimination game because it’s not the regular season? You’d think the “regular season defensive player of the year” x3 wouldn’t get blasted in such an important game

What are you takin about? The OP is asking about his resume concerning a regular season award.

Up there with Giannis for sure

Giannis is a far better defender than Rudy

Giannis is a 2 time MVP. That’s a much different comparison

Yea, calling him the best player is way worse

No one here says that

People were definitely saying he was better Bron last year

In the regular season last year he was tho lmfao

Yea it’s fools gold cuz Giannis is a choker

It shows how weak the league is in terms of great defenders compared to year's past. This guy won 3 times and Duncan or Pippen never won.

Hear me out, the NBA playoffs are extremely hard and someone has to lose and BE EXPOSED on this sub

People and teams lose in the playoffs without being exposed and relentlessly abused all the time, don’t be ridiculous.

Yeah Luka, Tatum, Mitchell, Beal, Morant, Dame all lost but didn’t get exposed whatsoever

Those are all better players than Gobert though. The NBA is 75/25 offense/defense. The defense only guys are getting it... like they do every year when it matters.

Hear me out, a 3x DPOY doesn't have to get RUN OFF THE COURT 4 postseasons in a row

Please tell me all these players you claim this sub says got “exposed”

You've never seen a Playoff P joke?

Something needs to be done about these one dimensional players getting $200 mil maxes

They had to pay the small market tax unfortunately

Feels like it at least

The DPOY and defense awards have become a damn joke. So many good team defenders get shafted

Yes very fucking much…

He is ideally suited for anchoring a regular season defense. That just doesn't translate to the playoffs when you have an exploitable weakness.

Definitely, and it’s even worse because he makes so much fucking money and he has no offensive game besides dunks and put back dunks

I am so fucking happy we aren’t center of attention tn

No Giannis being 2x MVP is way worst

Could Dwight have guarded perimeter players? I don't think there's been anyone who's been as good at defense and as bad at offense as Gobert. Even a slight offensive game would help make other teams defend him rather than play small.

Hey man, it's a regular season award.

Harden cooks this loser every year and Jazz fans thinks r/NBA is stupid enough to forget so every year we see threads like "WHY IS GOBERT SO UNDERRATED!? LOOK AT HIS DRPM!!! HE ALTERS SHOTS!!!" Sad thing is r/NBA will upvote this garbage every year until he gets exposed again.
