Rudy Golbert not making the top 3 in Defensive Player Of The Year seems to have been a playoff gift for the Timberwolves. The “disrespect” has got him playing like a man on a mission.
This guy has been one of the best defenders the league has ever seen but even so right now he seems to be playing defense about as good as I’ve ever seen, surely some of the best defense against Jokic we have seen.
Gobert said he felt it was “disrespect” and it seems to have lit a fire.
