Let's walk through the final offensive possessions for the Celtics. Rudy Gobert alters every possession. All but one are stops. The one non stop is a tough jumper by an all-star. His "value" is hard to calculate. Maybe we will realize defense matters #dpoy #mvp
This is an amazing defensive possessions by the Jazz all the way around. Really good work by Joe Ingles. Rudy's presence makes Brown pass to the corner and Donovan reads it perfectly. This is high level. Rudy is patrolling the paint as a one man zone.
C's lone halfcourt basket in the final 6 minutes. Tatum backs it out because of Gobert, gets him on a switch and hits an impressive 17 footer over Gobert. Tatum shoots 38% on off the dribble jumpers. Bend the shot chart. C's took 40 non-restricted area 2s last night
This is all Rudy. Gobertland is a mean and nasty place and no one wants to venture in. Brown has a step, turns the corner and drives. Sees Rudy and freezes and turns it over. Great work by Bojan as well. Jazz are connected.
2 time Defensive Player of the Year. Nothing complicated here. Just great defense. No foul. Incredible length. Game changing. Why Brown didn't try it the possessions before and why Tatum took the tough 17 footer earlier
This is the ultimate Rudy play. Brown back cuts. Sees Rudy. Pumps fakes three time and retreats into a brutally tough shot and fading long 2. Good play by Ingles as well.
Nothing special here, but it is all you are left with as an opponent. Off the bounce three. Jazz were able to direct Tatum. Gobert patrols middle. Tatum is an all-star he just missed. This is why Murray and Lillard are hard for Jazz this is the only way to attack Utah
This is vintage Rudy. Multiple actions. Cuts off roll. Immediately back to Thompson. Balanced enough to get up and alter shot. Was ready to rebound. Donovan hits another three and the game is over
7 possessions for the Celtics with the game on the line and the Celtics score 2 points. How Rudy is not listed in http://NBA.com top 15 MVP candidates is a travesty. (Bradley Beal?) @hoopshype 15 had Trae Young but not Rudy. Credit @espn had him #keepsleeping
