Without him we wouldn’t get to the conference finals. That aside, we shuffled his role a lot during his years with us.

Wolves fans seriously believe he can be an All-Star when he averages less points than JAIME JAQUEZ JR.

He’s good but he struggles with the big SF archetype. Luka/Kawhi. He’s just not strong enough. But if you can’t bully him with strength you’re in for a long night

Zach Lowe better be revising that 1st team all defense ballot of his

I heard Zach Lowe mention Ant as one of the best perimeter defenders in the NBA, that’s all I needed to hear to know Zach Lowe does not know what the hell he is talking about especially when it comes to defense, I still listen to him, but he just does not. So Minny casually have a 4x DPOY, Jaden and Ant and they suck this bad, alright

Ant could be good on strecthes btw, but game to game every quarter, no way

It was already suspect. He gave Gobert his flowers for how Minny’s defense is elite with him on and bad with him off… how you gonna say that and give McDaniels 1st?

I kinda wonder if the Wolves are gonna fall off defensivelly sometime soon because of people getting complacent around Gobert.

It kinda happened in Utah, some guys got older, some realized that they dont have to try on D, because Gobert is so good theyre an automatic top 5 defense anyways.

Next thing you know, Gobert is getting blamed for 4 of his teammates getting blown by anyone on the Clippers uniform

The man is too good at defense lmao

Ill always give my props to Rudy, best defender since at least Big Ben, but I personally would go as far back as Bill Russell.

We’ve NEVER seen one person be a guaranteed top 10 defense just by being on the team. Other all time great defenders had a lot of help on that end. Gobert just being your center means your team is good defensivelly no matter the personnel.

Wemby? Or does he not count because the Spurs aren’t lazy bums without him?

Genuine question.

Is Zach Lowe’s opinions about basketball relevant to anyone over 12?

CorporateKnowledge5 | Spurs

1 | 13 minutes ago

lol kids don’t listen to Lowe they watch YouTube reaction videos for their nba takes.

If you were going for a burn the better question was if Lowe’s opinion is relevant to anyone under 40.

I don’t think he cares much that the opponents were compared to him at one point. The clippers need wins right now and if he doesn’t go for 28+ they will lose and he knows that.

Just stating a very known fact when your throwing random ass strays at jaden whos been good for a good chunk of this year but struggles against one of the best 2 way wings ever. There might be like 3-4 guys that can guard and shutdown kawhi through his career

He still is shooting 42% from 3 and is the 76th highest payed nba player. For a 5 years, it is a good contract .

If only we could pay players under the table for no show jobs, am I right?

Bro I have no interest in defending Jaden but his contract isn’t even bad.
