“Who We Are Is A Defensive-Minded Team.” | Rudy Gobert Postgame Sound | 01.05.24

You guys you feel like you guys kind of got back to your def for sure for sure we start the game with a defensive mindset and uh you know and when we do that it just uh everything flows you know offensively I thought we did a for the

Most part of the game we did a good job just uh moving the ball you know making the making the right play the right read uh and it’s uh it’s the same when we do that offensively also helps out defense so uh now we got to stay consistent how much do one ECT

Turn I mean everything is connected for sure you know but we we don’t we never want to let the the anything affect who we are and who we are is a defensive minded team you know and uh you know what ever happens offensively um you know we have to find

A find the level of um accountability and level of maturity that nothing can can you know can face that if we don’t touch the ball you know if uh we don’t make the shots um you know we got to keep doing the things we have to do defensively and and I think

Um and I think like you say it’s a snowbody effect you know when when we don’t get stopped we get frustrated too and it affects our offense and then so it’s um yeah we got to find the L of you know maturity and consistency when you

Know no matter what uh we going to do what what it takes to but seems like tonight kind of continue a theme of being able to put losses behind you not let a street developer a bad what’s kind of been the key to that development I mean you got to focus on

What’s on you play today you got to you got to learn from the mistakes you know win or lose and um keep trusting the process keep putting the work every day and then you know everything else just just falls into place and still really early in the season so um you know we

Obviously want to win every night but um you know losing some game some games uh right now is you know it’s not going to affect uh we still going to control our destiny at the end of the day uh and our destiny I think is lies in you know the

Work that we put in every day and and how we yeah how we keep elevating oursel every Night you are playing that level was that motivator it was it was you know and uh you know it’s when you get lost in the midst of the season and you you know everyone has different things you know it’s important sometimes to just reenter regroup uh and understand that what we

Need is in this locker room and and what we need is to to be to be dogs you know to be the guys that we were uh tonight and that we were we were in the last few games that we were tonight and um and sometimes we don’t realize it slip away

From that a little bit you know and um it’s good to see it too to like okay that’s fun when we play like that looks good like you know and that’s that’s the team that we want to be that’s the team that people fear you know kind spoke to

Us earlier in the season he said you know when you guys were winning a lot he would kind of things you to improve seemed like might after is that kind of his style guys I think I think win or loss I think we we could feel that our defense

Wasn’t uh like he was you know and uh and and most a lot of it myself you know I take a lot of responsibility for that um but yeah we could feel that we were our mindset was slipping away even the Lakers game we won but you know it

Wasn’t it didn’t feel great you know and uh and I can’t remember like it was a couple games a few other games like that when we won but the Dallas game at home like you know the it tastes a little sour you know it’s a win but uh it

Wasn’t who we were you know so um tonight it tastes good and uh now got to keep you know keep pounding every day um and uh it’s exciting
