I have read a lot of people complaining about the spacing with Gobert on the court and how he clogs up the lane. I have seen several poster say that he should camp out at the dunker spot, which is the complete opposite of what the Wolves should be doing. I don’t think people understand that he spent most of his time in Utah on the perimeter (not the paint). He provided a lot of spacing as a screener and a rim runner and the Jazz had consistently one of the best offenses in the NBA.
Here are some excellent videos showing how Rudy was used effectively on offense in Utah.

A+ post…this is why I don’t like what we’re doing with him. Finch….is a really nice coach, and the players love him, but I think scheme-wise, he doesn’t understand how to best utlize his players. I hope I’m proven wrong one day, but so far it’s been unimpressive.
