This first round against Lakers will be important for Rudy Gobert. Faced with a depopulated racket, he could make his size and physique speak to dominate. But he could also be uncomfortable<\/strong><\/strong> Because forced to defend offshore. Experts have looked into his case.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

During the first half of his career, when he was still playing in jazz, Rudy Gobert had trouble avoiding the Rockets of James Harden in Playoffs. And inevitably, because the bearded man was unplayable at that time, he knew how to hurt the French pivot. Today, it is Luka Doncic that haunts the quadruple Dpoy on the title road.<\/p>\n

Last season, while the Timberwolves thought they had done the hardest by eliminating the Nuggets in the conference semi-final, it was the Slovenian and the Mavericks who had come to play the spoilsport. Luka had also released a memorable action on Gobert's head in Game 2, to give his team a decisive advantage. <\/p>\n

Rudy Gobert, key to the success of Timberwolves? <\/h2>\n

Today in Los Angeles following the most surprising exchange in history, it is still Luka who will stand in front of Rudy Gobert in the first round of these 2025 playoffs. This time he will be accompanied by LeBron James and Austin Reaves, with whom he developed a good relationship in just a few months. For Zach Lowe and Bill Simmons, this 100% European duel will be a key to the series: <\/p>\n

\n

Zach Lowe :<\/strong> Lakers\/Timberwolves, it's especially Luka Doncic against Rudy Gobert. It is revenge after the shot of last season. Gobert will have to be up to the height in front of 5 outside players from the Lakers. JJ Redick will send him full in his head. It will also be a major series for Julius Randle. He will have to defend on LeBron and show that he can be good in playoffs.<\/p>\n

Bill Simmons : <\/strong>Me, what I really want to know in this duel is who will end the meeting on the field for Minnesota? <\/p>\n

Zach Lowe : <\/strong>Chris Finch is not afraid to put his players on the bench. On some meetings, Jaden McDaniels and Naz Reid may form the racket that ends the match.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Like every season, Rudy Gobert will be a player followed during the playoffs<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>. He will also face his black beast and a coach who will do everything to get him out of his comfort zone … It's up to him to respond.<\/strong><\/p>\n
