Gobert discourse
Lately I’ve been having a hard time trying to have any type of Rudy Gobert conversations with anyone on this sub. The discourse is either too far left or too far right. The conversation are we would be a mess without him and our defense would completely fall of the face of the earth and we’d be a play in team. On the flip side the comments are we need to get off of him because he’s an albatross that just weighs us down and is a complete negative offensively who kills anything we want to do on that end. The truth is somewhere in the middle folks. He’s amazing defensively and yes our defense would suffer without him but there’s also truth that this team is over reliant on him and would probably be atleast average if that safety net was taken away. They will have to be eventually and you might as well pull that ripcord. I will say only make the Rudy trade if there’s legitimate positive value in it. Understand you aren’t getting 100 cents on the dollar but if you can get 65 to 70 cents it is probably in your best interest to make that deal. The Rudy discourse brings me back to the saying “don’t let your girlfriend stop you from finding your wife”.
