“They Have To Adapt To Us, Not The Opposite.” | Rudy Gobert Postgame Sound | 01.14.24

Yeah Ry how good it it feel KN PR close down having the stretch there feels good when you see the B through the neet you know yeah I was little upset about missing the easy and you know I know I’m suar so just have to trust it and uh

Take my time and knock him down do you did you change your routine at all or do you stick with exactly the same and just kind of no just stick with the same you know uh the wor thing can do just think about it practice every your angle it like you guys

Also go small you guys retain your identity and not to what another I to dunk it you know got to jump sticks on the ri thr know when we go be once again they want to go small whether it’s me or cat or both you know we we have to punish

Them this is you guys have done a a good job against Boston and and this team the Clippers tonight they where they really want to isolate against you guys um what was why have you been so effective defensively against that style we got people that can go you know we

Got people that can move their feet that take chall person ande World a lot of guys that really uh can go I can sleep peacefully knowing they can go those guys and you know uh make their life hard you obviously they’re still going to at times get tough shots

But um you know it yeah we confident you know with having those guys got what’s that change for you than like having that confidence in them guarding at the point of attack and you being able to kind of come over to I mean I’m still there I’m still there you know you see

My face behind in the in the background but uh but they got to go through these guys first and uh you know and and you know the M the main thing that I tell that is not to bow show hands and if you’re going to get beat I’m there you

Know and and then I’m there for rebounds which is very important but also I mean you switched out on a lot of you know guys you know Wings tonight and had to stay there because of how good they are in ISO I mean you’re roaming a lot more

This year but like this kind of opponent as a litness test ises that I mean this is what you’re going to see in the postseason too I love it when I say we got guys that can go I myself in that group too but I mean the trust behind you is

Obvious sure sure you know we I love that they trust me I trust my teammates and uh and I I got anyone one one you know you know guys sometimes going hit shots yeah no no we take that also as a team you and um have been TR have you blocked

Four mid-range jumpers in the game before do you think I blocked four mid-range today I I don’t know at least three I think four there’s maybe one at the r at the yeah yeah I don’t I don’t know maybe quite twice quite yeah I try to you know it’s a shot

That is really comfortable taking so I just try to let him know that I’m that I’m there you know in the past a lot of times I was kind of letting him get that shot off and tonight I just decided that I was going to contest it you know hard Ry

Your first field goal came in the third quarter is this a game where you felt like stay patient wear them down a little bit get your opportunities yeah I was I was trying to get get uh get open the first half uh you know didn’t happen

But uh you got to stay consistent you know they were already uh um they didn’t want me to score at all they every role they were bringing somebody there uh and every time I had the ball they would F me so uh yeah it was one of those games

When uh you know uh I knew I was going to still impact the game uh in a big way just by being there offensively and defensively and uh and then you know when you keep doing that you get rewarded sooner or later I believe the exact count was 13 times you were fall

The night it did it feel like it you were fall 13 times yeah I mean I got the US slap in the face a couple times uh yeah I mean they fought me three times in in one minute I think in the first half uh but I love it you know

I love it I mean it was a it’s a physical team they they’re really tough team so it was a good challenge do you see Kyle catching up Groove offensively a little bit more lately and what that does for you guys I mean we we have 100%

Confidence in Kai you know he puts the work every day we know what he can do we know that he can shoot the ball and we want him to shoot the ball so you know it’s um everyone sometimes you get a rough stretch uh but glad to see that

He’s you know he has his confidence and and once again like you know when the shots don’t go in uh K Kai can impact the game so many ways for us that you know uh doesn’t matter like keep shooting and keep being you it’s still helping the team in a big way awesome

  1. Been saying this for at least three years. Fire everybody on your sound team and editing team they suck. And half the questions these woke reporters ask are stupid.

  2. They're not getting past the first round. Still play dumb basketball and miss open threes. Good defense but that's it.
