Imagine if every hall of famer was judged strictly on their lows. Come on fam, you better than this.

Give me the list of Hall of Famers (which wasn't even part of the discussion but since you wanted to introduce it, I'llacknowledge it) that routinely become unplayable year after year in the playoffs.

Rudy is "unplayable" in the playoffs? You're laying it on thick fam.

Gobert’s “lows” always come during the most important game.

The 90% of the time you say he’s “beasting” doesn’t matter if he gets played off the court in the playoffs and he only plays 2 minutes during a pivotal knockout round game for his home country WHILE HE IS STILL IN HIS “PRIME”

I have never in my life seen a hall of famer play this badly when the chips matter.

How can he be a multiple DPOY winner when he gets played off the floor everytime it matters? He’s DPOY of the league but how many lobs did lively and Gafford get during the wcf?

The game couldn’t be more important for france and they benched him AND THEY LOOKED BETTER THAN THEY HAVE ALL TOURNEY. Idk how anyone defends this guy.

Mitch Richmond was Sacramento's franchise player and only led them to the playoffs twice. Yes, your read that right. A hall of fame franchise player was only able to lead a franchise to the playoffs twice in his prime. Meaning most of his stats that got him into the hall of fame was accumulated during the regular season and in losses. Do people discredit Mitch? And please don't mention that ring where he was a benchwarmer for the Lakers at the end of his career

If we cant have an honest talk, We can dead the conversation. I'm sorry I tagged you.

 

[antidope]

Staunch Rudy Gobert defender, but you can scheme in out of games very easily. On both sides.

What is this

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Even more irrational hatred for Poor Poor Rudy. People need to stop picking on him.

Can't make this up.

[elpablo21]

Yeah, KD old *** gonna be there in 2028

 

[pmatic]

Legendary game, wonder why they stopped this

Oh, that’s back when they did tryouts

I think the Paul George accident stopped that. Don't play any more than you have to.

 

[B Sox]

Folks standing up for Goober after he once again got schemed out on a big stage

Luckily his own coach he realized there was better options.

 

[ballinsam23]

Gobert being benched on every stage now. Hard to defend the guy.

His own coach doesn't stand up for him like that and publicly rebuked his injury story

 

[rolaholic]

All that needs to be said on that topic at the end of the day tbh.

People have been extra weird about that whole thing for years now and they steady disrespect dude for being a supportive father in a nutshell

The last thing on my mind today was Rudy Gobert and y'all cats randomly tagged me to engage in a back & forth about him that I didn't ask to be apart of. Listen if you guys want to continue your hate fetish for the future of hall of famer then go ahead but please leave me out of it lol

 

[MajinZuub]

I'd jump ship after saying that Mitch Richmond **** too

 

[pmatic]

 

[dontsteponmyshoes]

Mans was discombobulated. Argument shakier than Rudy in the playoffs.

 

[lawdog1]

My unfondness for Rudyard is documented in here, but I have to at least entertain the possibility that the surgery thing was a joke? Or maybe there was a translation error?

Otherwise it’s up there among the worst lies in history

 

[moderndarwin]

Rudy is alrite. He’s way too disrespected for a guy that absolutely gives it his all and does the best that he can.

 

[elpablo21]

Me after practice being 2nd to last or last

Yeah aint no way he was serious. He gotta be trolling otherwise

 

[elpablo21]

Folks swore they were tired of the Rudy discourse four months ago but here we are many of the same participants engaging lmao

My dog Rudy

 

[HIM]

You would think France was eliminated. Shai and Murray skating by with no slander
