I mean Dikembe won it and had to guard Shaq. (Nobody can guard Shaq one on one) Just leave it alone bruh…..Gobert won DPOY. You being petty and you shouldn’t be. You are a 4 time champion. GSW legend hands down. Love the show. 💯
wrong! Dennis Rodman cooked shaq
@@allowedmelol 26pts 13rb and 2.2 blocks is what shaq averaged against Rodman.. if that’s considered stopping shaq than by using ur logic Gobert is apparently doing a great job 😂😂..
50% of the video is dray passive aggressively sending shots at rudy 😭😭😭
😂😂😂😂 I love it. Rudy is trash
You right I almost forgot that's who he choked out. Actually he was getting Rudy off of Clay. Draymond is right defensive player of the year got 40 put on him by the MPV. Go figure.
@@darwinfranklin9238brother please learn English b4 disrespecting a Frenchman who knows your language better than you
😁@@joesmith3542
And defending leglers dumb take about boston. If porzingas doesnt come back and/or lose other top players and still make and compete in finals but dont win that isnt a failure.
Rudy lives rent-free in Draymond's head
Or he’s just giving analysis
Literally RENT FREE, it's so cringe.
@@J_Dub25 both
Naw, he stating the obvious, rudy is not a great defender he's great at help defense, but once you get into his space, it's not that great.
@@joebowen8599 im a warriors fan but what hes saying is crazy especially because draymonds claim to fame is being a great help defender
Draymond didn’t you let Iggy guard Lebron when you won DPOY? Lmao
Wrong year! Get your dates right💯😂
Iggy was the best on ball defender available at the time. Draymond is a team defense player, one of the best, just like Rudy. AD is the best on ball/team defense player in the league. The media is disrespecting the man solely bc LeBron is on the team. It's a gift and a curse
Rudy was great in game 6. Nothing like a DPOY doin DPOY things
Draymond had a chance to talk about how unguardable Jokic is, and instead used his platform to trash Rudy because Rudy lives rent free in Draymonds head. 🤷♂️
Jokic wasn’t unguardable 😂, KAT guarded him pretty good!
@@lovemycity420then why won't the wolves put him on Jokic the whole series.. Because then KAT would fill foul out before first half.
it's his show, his choices, for his purposes. It's not like he's going to have you approve what he says. What Draymond says in this various scenarios aren't empty words, despite any shade. He's giving a master perspective on the game of basketball, which most cognoscenti will take with a dose of MSG, but there's a lot of teaching, often at a level that's over the heads of some fans who get hung up on quasi-personality clashes. Savvy fans get out of their own way to hear and filter the actual knowledge he imparts, aside from his personal indulgences. People, you don't know basketball better than Draymond. Pretentiousness is a hollow use of energy.
To be fair Rasheed guarded Shaq and nobody called out Ben for letting sheed guard shaq
Nggas ain’t gone hear u wit this tho
@@marcusfrm6263 ong
bruh they don't wanna hear on any good point. dikembe won a bunch of dpoy awards and got killed by shaq, none of these dudes are calling dikembe overrated. i can point to game after game of draymond getting cooked by kat or jokic, he don't wanna hear that lmao. ad gets killed by jokic every year, draymond won't call him overrated. he's mad that gobert won a bunch of dpoy over him and he's using his tv time and pods to bash him, meanwhile ain't even make the playoffs this year lmao
@@TheRulersBack18AD cooked Jokic this year and draymond guards joker as well as basically anyone
@@ima9769 “AD cooked jokic this year” jokic isn’t a defender dude
Why would I want the DPOY to guard Jokic if KAT does it better??? That doesn’t make him not the DPOY… the Wolves defense is best in the league because of his presence. But keep hating 👍
Because Gobert as a help defender is the reason why they're able to slow down Jokic.
Jokic feasting in the paint if its just KAT he has to worry about.
Missed the whole point
KaT shouldn’t be able to do it better is the 1st point, 2nd , ideally you would want your DPOY to guard him so your 25ppg scorer doesn’t have to sacrifice his offense on the other end, see how low his scoring was in game 6 when he had to watch Jokic!
@flash012234 Well that, buy mainly because even though Joker can drop 40 on you his biggest weapon is his passing and getting Nuggets easy points in the paint.
With Rudy roaming, 90% of those easy points are eliminated. When Rudy is on Joker, not only can Joker back him down easily, but KAT doesn't offer the same high IQ paint protection.
Game 7 will fully depend on KAT being able to stay out of foul trouble so that he can guard Joker and let Rudy do what he does best -- shut everything else down.
@lovemycity420 No. Draymond has missed the entire point of the Timberwolves defense. We don't want Rudy guarding anyone 1v1.
We want Rudy to do what Rudy does best -- completely lock down the entire paint. Notice Joker only had 2 assists in game 6. And over the past two seasons, only averages 4.2 per game when Nuggets play Timberwolves. That is WAY below his averages. That's all Rudy.
Rudy is a roamer of the paint providing the best 'help defense' in the league. That's why Timberwolves guards can be so aggressive on defense because if they get burnt, Rudy protects that rim.
It takes high IQ to help on 3-4 players at a time. To be a good 1v1 defender, it's mostly about athleticism, strength and 'want to'.
When Rudy guards Joker, there is no one else on the Timberwolves protecting the paint at a high level. KAT doesn't have the IQ for it -- but KAT is great 1v1 on Joker because of his size and strength.
Ur analogy of Gobert is terrible. 1. Prior to last game he was holding Jokic to like 40 percent from the field. Jokic made some incredible stops. Where was your hate when Rudy was effective on Jokic, or how about when Rudy guarded KD just fine.
2. Rudy wins DPOY not cuz he locks down other teams centers, but cuz he guards 5 positions at the same time. Yeah Denver had 2-3 games where they torched the defense. Minnesota also had 3 games where Denver didn’t even hit 90, and last game they only hit 70
Put context on your stats.. "HoLdInG jOkIc To LiKe 40%." Jokic FG% game by game..
Game 1 - 44%
Game 2 - 38.5% Gobert did not play
Game 3 - 55.6%
Game 4 - 57.7%
Game 5 - 68.2%
Game 6 - 47.4% - KAT primary defender
His analogy was spot on. Marcus Smart, DPOY, cant guard steph.. but it didnt take away how good of a defender Smart is.. its just Brown was better match with steph's skill set. same as Gobert and Jokic.. It doesnt take away Gobert's defensive prowess against any other scheme or players.. its just that KAT is a better matchup for Jokic.. and thats all there is to it.
@@hatermoko1074 and you didn’t put context to you stats. The nuggets are masters at getting switches and finding favorable matchups. That’s his total FG, not accurate of his FG % when Rudy is the primary defender
@@hatermoko1074they double teamed jokic last game clown, its not cause “kat” did anything special
@@Josiah-gk4ou double team.. then Gobert wasnt the defender.. so my argument is still valid. gobert still cant guard him. its team defense.
@@petethegreat101 It has more context than what you put in. The point still stands.. he cooks gobert more than he cooks KAT. bulk of rudy's wins were in game 1.. you cant say gobert has been locking up jokic after 1 game.
Dray still throwing shade at Rudy and KAT. Man, this has nothing to do with centers guarding centers. You think Joker is a typical "center"? He has an all-time great IQ with all-time great skill, and just happens to be 6'11 and 284 lbs. You need whoever you can to guard him if they can guard him effectively. Since he was DPOY, should he have guarded LeBron when he played against him, or was he okay with Iggy getting that assignment?
Draymond doesn't want MIN to win this game. And for obvious reasons. It would validate that his hate for Rudy and KAT have been unnecessary. What will his narrative be about them if they get past the Nuggets? He's preemptively trying to give credit to Ant for his leadership because he doesn't want to eat crow about Rudy and KAT.
It aint that deep.
He not wrong lmfao
DRAYMOND has to be just straight HATING on Gobert because I know he has better basketball IQ than all of us watching his show.
He knows that Gobert is all-time elite and incredible at HELP DEFENSE. Rudy doesn't have a strong base nor the quickness to guard elitly 1v1, but he's got the length and the highest of high defensive IQs 🧠 in the league to completely shut down every other thing that tries coming into the paint.
Rudy is LEVELS above Draymond in regards to being a defender. And that's why he's salty as hell. Notice Rudy never hates on Draymond? He's not intimidated.
Don't get me wrong, Draymond is an elite defender + elite point forward. His facilitating is elite, which makes him special as a basketball player.
But he is not Rudy Gobert on the defensive end. Rudy is literally legendary, and his 4 DPOY awards prove it. No team was EVER going to give up 5 first round picks and half their team to get Draymond and that's just FACTS 🤜🤚🎤
The emojis killed me
Draymond is truly just a hater and jealous of Rudy. He’ll always have more DPOYs than you buddy
And draymond will always have more rings
Yet Dray’s the one who’s obsessed with Rudy lol
@@J_Dub25 Perhaps, but he's always going to have to live with the fact there is a more accomplished defender of his generation.
I keep seeing this hot take about how Rudy is not capable of defending Jokic and he defensive player of the year, but let’s also talk about how Jokic can’t score against somebody who is notoriously a bad defender (KAT) and he’s the MVP🤷🏾♂️ Rudy being defensive player of the year says more about the state of defense in the NBA. He’s a help defender and makes it tough for guards and pretty much everybody to drive to the rim
Draymond went on live TV and said that the wolves were broken after game 6 and that it was over
Game 5
@@jays439 right my bad
Stay on that side b u said the twolves gave up
Shaq has famously beefed with Yao, Howard, Olijawan, and even his true Arch Nemesis Zo. Hes now friends with all of them with mutual respect. He never choked any of them tho. I feel like Draymond is going to be bringing up Rudy in 2040 still.
Shaq still brings up Steve Nash's MVP.. I think that's more of a comparison as Gobert won a few DPOY while dray was also in the running..
Twolves success relies on KAT, Mcdaniels and Conley. We know Ant will show up.
You clearly didn’t watch game 5 lol
Ant is not good without conley managing the offense
I feel like thats what he said lol @ozg78
@@ozg78 lol that is literally what he just said.
@@nathanielnelson2080 nah he said ant gonna show up regardless. He need conley to play good
@ozg78 lol he clearly just said that. You clearly didn't pay attention in school lol.
Draymond: “They don’t believe they can win” 🤡
Rudy is the smarter defender and makes all the defensive calls on the court. He roams and helps in the paint when needed. Kat can’t stop joker and he doesn’t need to, just hold him long enough for help.
All those greats you named couldn’t guard Jokic better than Rudy. And you definitely can’t. 🤷♂️
Damn boy turned into a nuggets assistant coach 🤣
Anything for rudy’s downfall. Love the dedication to hating. Go Nuggets
Rudy hater. He has a top 5 plus minus in the playoffs- talk about something else. Your obsession is boring and lame
Very insightful, thanks Dray!
You are dead wrong here!
Joker backs down KAT with EASE, when it's 1 on 1...but because most of the time Gobert is in the paint helping he(Joker) prefers to go around or shoot face up J.
Joker want that Gobert mach up cause he knows they gonna let him 1 on 1 straight up.
Big KAT locked him up 🔒
@@themagicman225Big KAT😂😂
The softest center in the league😂
Minesota was sending DOUBLE TEAMS to Joker, dummy...
@@realone296 i dont mean to break ur heart but over the last 9 times theyve played kat has held jokic to 42% that is BIG PURR
@@beckham4124Cause he shoots face up J and fadeaways and knows if he goes in the paint for easier shoot, Gobert is waiting for a double team...
If it's Joker-KAT straight up 1 on1 Joker cooks him!
@@realone296 anything but give kat props its ok
Yo draymond i think it’ll be a good idea if you get a permanent cohost, it’ll make the conversation more engaging
He trying to keep his check 😂
Idk it would be good but I don’t think it would be better. He’s really good at the individual commentary and a cohost would hinder and shorten his explanations and he might not be able to say everything he wants about breaking a game down.
No it won’t, he’s doing fine
@@dlishis it just sometimes when he talks it feels so drawn out and gets dull at times and a cohost will help that and make it feel more like a conversation, not saying the pod not good the way it is, just a suggestion to switch things up a bit give it a different feel.
Watch in 1.25 speed
Absolutely incredible 😂
Love Draymond Green! Reminds me of when NBA was tough. Knicks, Pistons, Indiana, Sixers! Those were the days!
Smart move posting on Fridays 👌👍💪
Very interesting take
Dray the first I’ve seen talk about Hardy for Dallas. Love it
Draymond - Are you really the Chris Broussard of new Media??? RESPECT!!! You made it!!! 😂 😂 😂
how so? broussard is far more better
Draymond Green I’m a longtime warriors fan and we need another Hampton Trip! I need you to recruit D Fox, Bridges, and Jaren Jackson jr💯💯 Starting 5 with you, Steph and those three is championship worthy😂😂😂👀 Just food for thought champ. I hope you read this comment Draymond. Warriors need to come back on top 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆YEEE💙💛
STILL DUCKING THAT NY SMOKE I SEE
That fluke ass TEAM? Boston will sweep them cuh !
That fluke ass Team!!!! Knicks in 6 vs Celtics
@@iplaydrunk9979 & Boston's the biggest fluke team if they don't win after being far away the best team in the league
Thank you for acknowledging my guy J Hardy !
Much love, Dray! Missed ur podcast. GS fan here; I got the Wolves...
Also wdym we haven’t seen centers stop guarding centers? Whenever giddey is on the floor, Dallas is putting lively/gaffers on him
Love the Jaden Hardy shoutout.
Wolves center is rim protector, and he is not best use to guard a guy who can shoot 3, or good pass, or low post. In order to guard joker, either double team if joker tries to move steps forwarding to rim, or 1 long arms guy to guard joker at 3 point line for 3 point shot or high pass or hard screen.
That breakdown about why the team that wins game 5 usually wins the series , is GOLD !!
Dray is the only basketball podcast i enjoy listening to as of late he real passionate about it and he actually know what he talking about. Also appreciate the love for Jaden hardy
Celtics gotta get Draymond in the locker room
Cool you’re giving props to Hardy 👍
Just for content sake, I hope Gobert goes off in game 7. Like 25 points, 20 rebounds and 10 blocks. And then shut Jokic down with 4/18 for 14 points or something
Dray u a godamn hero!
Rudy alone cant handle the MPV which thats not a problem. There is atleast 3 seven footers on the Timberwolves team. Play them all and wear Jokic down make somone else try to beat you.
KAT is a good perimeter defender. Rudy is a good rim protector. Jokic operates in both areas
"very interesting" agreed.
Only good thing about TNT losing the nba is we won’t have to listen Draymond on inside the nba
I was wondering if someone can build a tool to import all the post season games into an AI model, and have the the model coming up with the in game adjustments.
You just a Rudy hater. To say that he doesn't press up like KAT and Naz, is wrong. He presses up more. But...I could agree if you said he doesn't have the weight, the gravity agaisnt Joker.
the bigger reason it's 82 percent is because the loser of game 5 has to win 2 more games rather than 1...
Also teams are usually favorites at home so the higher seed usually wins game 5 (at home).
I'd be interested in seeing what the results are if you adjust for variables like: close seeds, the favorite loses game 5, etc
NBA would be wise to market Ant and Joker the way they did Bird and Magic. They are both class acts and pure champion competitors.
Dray def got a good podcast
No audio bro
33:52
EXACTLY. WHEN DID CONFERENCE FINALS AND FINALS APPEARANCES BECOME THE STANDARD AND GOAL?
We enjoyed you on TNT
Impressive … Green’s analytics are bar none!
A defensive specialist as Draymond is should know that defending a great player like Jokic takes an entire team. Yes Rudy can be better, but it's on the entire team to stop Jokic which we see no team can do if he decides to dominate.
Draymond, just close your eyes and envision how well you would fit in this Dallas Mavericks team... And then , do something about it!🥰
I was waiting for you say Dwight Howard
Draymond is a fine assessor of the game, but there are times he doesn't have all his thoughts ready to go. That said, he does a better job than I would ever do, so.
He’s right about everything. And Rudy/joker wasn’t half fhe segment. Grow up wolves fans.
I would make an adjustment as the twelves that would throw their whole game plan off by starting Naz and matching Rudy's mins when joker off the court.
These podcasts don't feel the same with draymond not making the playoffs but talking about those in it passive aggressively.
He's the main reason warriors didn't make the playoffs but has the oddacity to speak on playoff teams.
Dray sounds bitter and it's watering down the podcast.
Hey Draymond I know your a busy guy but here's the deal: are there ever(in the playoffs) successful in game adjustments or is that a fantasy on the fans and commentators part.
How was the 10th seed, Draymond??? You still playing this season?
"joker is the king of kick balls" LMAO how incredibly ironic for dray to say that, but in a different way.
You know Rudy is a help defender smh...so disingenuous
Lol true. Ant is the leader and Conley is the chief advisor.
Celtics not winning a ship isn't a failure because of the moves they made or the money.
Its simply because they've already been to the ECF with this core a bunch.
They'll have more roles of the dice too but this will be this will be the worst competition they'll have going forward in the east or finals matchup. All these teams are going to keep getting tougher.
Make sure your turn on your tv and watch the goat Rudyyyyyy tonight since you couldn’t make it to the playoffs son you no different then us tonight we are all watching 😂
I’m still going to pick Minnesota but great time to be a Fan of baseball
Love the opinions and insights… but we will see if you’re right about NYK, Brunson, Wolves and OKC folding… like you said, it’s the NBA… so anything can happen… you should give insight on the Dubs processing the playoff loss to the Lakers last yr. Or the Kings in the playin this year… interesting to get your perspective on the loosing side… how you felt this ain’t our night or man I wish we had another tall 3 & D dude!
Tell your boy Bob Muers about Ant's leadership. Apparently he hasnt seen him take the opportunity to do it.
Bob Myers screwed the warriors. Could’ve had Ant Man, Haliburton, and Lamelo😬🤦🏽♀️💯
Mortar From Above the Rim😂 Drizzy Draymond‼️
Please be wrong . Wolves in 7
Dray, can you shoutout my friend Nahuel? He is such a big Dubs fan
KAT played as a centre for majority of his time in the league, so no, centres didnt stop from guarding other centres.
Every body on Bronny bcuz its LeBron son. Any other kid come in the league like him averaging 2 pts a game, they'll say he's not ready. People stop it. We know everyone worships LeBron in the league except Brooks 😅
bro you are really good at this. keep up the good work
“Ball Don’t LIE”
Interesting rant on Rudy when the nuggets scored 70 points.. Rudy had no impact on that for sure
12:34 He’s not wrong 😂
To play simple is hard. But who master simplicity wins…Adwards can adjust….but shit gets complicated… yes brothers…. They are …. Tough!
Man where yo uglahh been, bout time
To Draymond point...as great as Marcus Smart is as a defender, Steph torched Marcus in the finals. Does that make Marcus a bad defender? No. He just couldn't slow down Steph
The timberwolves had to make an adjustment after three losses in a row.. What worked in a game 2 was Kat. Rudy wasn’t even there. I give 100% credit to Timberwolves for making the right adjustments as a young team.. it’s about winning games at the end of the day!
Murray was a D league player that was the reason Denver lost.
I feel like dray was a little lit during this lol..
4:45 CRAZY HOW A 22 YEAR OLD CAME TO THE TIMBERWOLVES AND TOOK KAT TEAM FROM HIM
It’s weird how the producer just pops up out of nowhere, maybe just bring him on the discussion because without warning and no commentary it’s unsettling the flow
Didn't dray say in the beginning of the series that he is taking the wolves to win the series in 6 or 7? He should have mentioned that he changed his stance.
Right, its just an unpredictable series, who would ever guessed Denver would have been down 0-2
Well we see who draymond wants to win between wolves and denver
Good takes but who’s Jamar Murray?
Lmao draymond stop being so petty, you know damn well that there is no stopping an alltime great. You can put 2 dpoys on Jokic and he will just make a perfect pass. Props to Wolves coaching for making these smart adjustments, better keep Rudy as help defender
That’s center helped the wolves be in top 3 unlike the golden state assers
I'd bet good money Rudy can beat Draymond one on one 😂😂😂
i been waiting to hear draymond's breakdown, good stuff
Draymond, OKC needs you. You are the missing link. We need somebody that can cheap shot dudes in the balls and also possess championship defensive IQ and effort.
Hahaha Jamurry you made a new name
