In great shape for a few days, Rudy Gobert still played a big role in the new victory obtained this Thursday by the Timberwolves in Brooklyn (105-90). It was well worth a satisfied and loss reaction of his coach, Chris Finch.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If the Timberwolves are doing as well and are now within the range of a place in the top 6 of the Western Conference, it is largely thanks to him. Since his return from injury, now almost a month ago, Rudy Gobert shines in the same way as his franchise. It could not only be observed on Tuesday, In the spectacular victory against the Nuggets<\/strong>but also this Thursday on the Nets prosecutor's office.<\/p>\n

Chris Finch greets the sparkling form of Rudy Gobert<\/h2>\n

At the end of an exhausting double extension, Minnesota could be wary of the trap set by Brooklyn. And even more following the unfortunate ankle injury contracted by Anthony Edwards at the end of the first half. Chris Finch has whatever it may be able to count on an ultra-dominant Gobert (21 points, 18 rebounds, 9\/10 in shooting) to win (105-90) and was therefore not long in paying tribute to him at a press conference:<\/p>\n

\n

Chris Finch :<\/strong> It is true that we had to tear up to win this victory. We did not seem to have a lot of essence in the tank, which is understandable after the efforts we had to provide the other evening. But I found that Rudy was phenomenal. He really set the tone on both sides of the field. Thanks to that, we managed to create a sufficient lead to win in the end.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Assistant of the Blues at the Olympics, Kenny Atkinson admits: “During France-USA, I received …<\/p><\/div>\n

Invited to pour out a little more on the current level of his French pivot, the Wolves coach praised his offensive and defensive merits, worthy of the big season he delivered last year:<\/p>\n

\n

Chris Finch :<\/strong> He looks like the defender of the year we had in our ranks last season.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

He disputes everything he can contest, he is very effective offensively near the basket and makes his strength speak in this area. He really plays in a very intelligent way when we give him the ball after a screen and we managed to do several beautiful actions in this kind of configuration. All that to say that he plays as he is able to do, but at a very high level.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Gobzilla has definitely chosen his moment well, since he allows his team to display an excellent dynamic in this final sprint of the regular season. It remains to be seen whether it will prove to be sufficient to avoid participation in the Play-in Tournament as well as a first round series too raised in the playoffs. Until then, the tricolor international and his teammates will have an appointment on the side of Philadelphia this Saturday.<\/p>\n

Once again precious for the Timberwolves in Brooklyn, Rudy Gobert deserved the compliments he was the subject of after-match press conference. Hopefully this will encourage him to keep this thunderous form durably.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n
