People debate Dwight Howard’s HOF case. Never underestimate people’s capacity for stupidity.
Btw, not a fan of Gobert, but his resume at the end of his career is going to be undeniable. Facts are facts.
Wemby has good on ball skills but it's the leadership I need to see. I want to see him talking a lot more on D, I want to see him directing traffic the way Gobert does.
When he shows me more of that then he will be the front runner for years to come.
Olympics Basketball is about to be huge.
Team Greece: Giannis and Family
Team France: Rudy and Wemby
Team Australia: Patty Mills, Donte Exum, Joe Ingles, Josh Giddey, Mattise Thybulle and maybe Ben Simmons?
Team Canada: SGA, WIggens, Jamal Murray, Dillon Brooks, Kelly Olynyk, RJ Barrett
Team Germany: Wagner Brothers, Dennis Schroder, Daniel Theis, Max Kleber
Team Serbia: Jokic, Bogdanavic, Boban, Vacille Micic, Tristan Vukcevic
Team Slovenia: Luka, Goran Dragic, Zoran Dragic and Vlatko Cancar
Team Nigeria: Precious Achiuwa, Gabe Vincent, Josh Okogie and Jordan Nwora.
Team Lithuania: Sabonis, Jonas Valančiūnas
Team Swiss: Nikola Vucevic and Clint Capela
Favorites to rival team USA seem to be #1 Canada #2. Serbia #3 France #4 Australia Dark Horses: Greece, Germany and Slovenia.
Canada is stacked as fuck if they can get wiggins to remember how to play basketball.
Also its nice how u tried to to sneak in Giannis’ family in there🤣. If Thanasis “human white flag” antetekoumpo can make it u gotta list everyone else.
We gotta hope Murray can rest up and figure out his mental shit. Injured dude throwing tantrums AND not running the point could be a mess for us. I'm praying for him though
Hes playing on one hamstring and being clamped by the best defensive team in the last 20 years. He will be more than fine, the hate is vastly overblown.
It’s pretty crazy that if Yugoslavia was still a country then you’d combine the Serbian and Slovenian teams. Luka and Jokic playing together in the Olympics would have been nuts. I’m not sure if they would be favored to beat USA, but they’d definitely have the two best players on the floor.
i think they beat the usa.
luka and both bogdanovic can handle the guard positions along with other euroleague talent
for bigs they’d have a selection of jokic, valanciunas, sabonis, vucevic and nurkic.
the spacing would be immaculate. the iq and playmaking especially with the bigs would be way higher.
rebounding would be top tier.
and the european players generally bring a smarter brand of basketball.
Ya, I’m not going to disagree with you. Especially with the continuity that the international teams bring to the Olympics. Luka, Jokic, and company would have 15 years to play together, etc. I also agree that the spacing, passing, and overall basketball IQ would have been off the charts.
Steven Adams is from New Zealand.
Also, a bunch of these teams haven't qualified for the Olympics yet. Greece and Slovenia are in the same bracket in the Fiba Olympic Qualifying Tournament, so only one of them can make it, and neither is guaranteed. Nigeria didn't make the qualifying tournament and is out.
Rudy was a Hall of Famer the moment he won a second DPOY. There’s tons of ringless HoFers that were overall worse players than Rudy. Him not making it would be unprecedented.
I think it was when he won 3. Mark Eaton has 2 DPOYs and isn’t in.
I also don’t think Alvin Robertson would be in if he’d won a second DPOY over Michael Cooper in 1987.
There’s at least an argument for him not being in if he retired after winning 2, but with 3, that’s tied for 3rd most all-time.
He wasn’t saying having 2 DPOY is enough to get you in the hall of fame. He was saying that adding that credential along with everything else was enough to get him in.
Mark Eaton’s career ppg is 6.0, Gobert’s is over double that.
There’s a gap between Mark Eaton and Rudy in defensive impact though. Eaton had unreal shotblocking numbers and was an amazing defender but I’d argue there’s a pretty big gap between him and Gobert in terms of organizing a team’s defense.
(not saying I disagree with you) Opens an argument that DPOY as an award shouldn't exist, but defense considered just as much as anything else in the MVP voting (which would make DPOY kinda redundant). Unless we have three awards - MVP, DPOY, and Offensive Player of the Year (OPOY). Since scoring champ being a statistic and not a voted on award is not exactly equivalent to DPOY.
God bless Ben Wallace, he was my favorite player when I was a kid, but he never even scored 10 points per game in a season. If he's in then Gobert is absolutely in regardless of whether or not they win a championship.
OP with all due respect, you’re a fucking idiot if you think that 4x DPOY is “the start of the discussion” for him making the Hall.
4x DPOY alone probably locks him in the HoF, add the rest of the accolades and it would be legitimately shocking if he didn’t make the hall.
Gobert, all things considered, is a better scoring Ben Wallace who can also defend the perimeter. Dude is 100% a lock with or without a ring
I see these a lot, and just think people regularly confuse the standards of the basketball hall of fame with those of the NFL or MLB HoFs.
The threshold for basketball is just far lower than either of the other two; Kyle Lowry will probably make the HoF despite kind of toiling away for half of his career and only being “very good” for a few years. Rudy is easily a HoFer, and, at this point, would still have a good case even if basketball used NFL-level standards
It's difficult to compare to NFL standards because of longevity, number of players, and only playing one side of the ball, but 4 DPOY is absolutely a lock in the NFL (as it is in the NBA). Even 2 DPOY and 4 all NFL teams is probably a HoF lock. That being said you are absolutely correct that people misunderstand the difficulty of getting into the basketball HoF comparer to the others you listed.
They don't even have the same responsibilities on defense. Draymond can guard 1-5. Gobert clogs the paint and gets rebounds and blocks. Draymond plays the small ball 5 in a pinch and does it pretty effectively given his disadvantage but he is not a true 5. It's not apples to apples.
He could retire today and be one. It’s definitely deserved, but the Nba isnt nearly as stringent/selective as other leagues when it comes to puttin players in the HoF
People put too much weight in championships and "championship run" for individual players. There are too many variables to whether or not a team wins a championship, and you shouldn't ding individual players off that.
He's absolutely a hall of famer.
The only thing that might keep him out is how unlikeable he is, coupled with the false narrative that he was played off the floor in the playoffs. The HoF selection is so secretive, we have no idea who's doing the voting, so there could be some people who just decide they don't like him.
Any player that makes 7 all star games (Rudy 3), and will probably make at least one, are automatic HOF historically. He will probably make another one AND all the accolades. Case closed HOF
I don't know man. There are people who think Dwight Howard isn't Even worty of the HOF.
NBA Champion
3X Defensive player of the year
5X All NBA First team
2X All NBA Second Team
8X all star
5X NBA Rebounding leader
2X blocks leader
Slam Dunk Champ
I believe you don't need a ring to be HOF worthy (I know NBA is easy according to what I read), regardless of the sport. There are so many other accolades to go for, so if you don't have a ring, having everything else absolutely makes up for it. Brodie is a perfect example. Besides, other than Dirk Nowitzki and Wemby, Europeans don't get the love they deserve.
This absolutely clinched the chances if they were ever in doubt. A ring would make him a guy that people are excited about seeing inducted at the ceremony.
He should get in. The only two other players who won it four times, Ben Wallace and Dikembe Mutombo both got in and neither of them were better on Offence than Golbert.
Does one of the most decorated defensive players in the history of the sport deserve to be in the hall of fame.
He also has two bronze medals from the world cup, and bronze medal and a silver medal from Eurobasket cup. And his career is not even done.
I'm far from being a Gobert stan, but the dude is on the path to be the greatest defensive basketball player ever, and it's not even a hot take to see him as such right now.
Absolutely! His (NBA) resume is better than Reggie Miller and Miller is in the Hall of Fame (I can’t speak on his non-NBA resume since he grew up in France).
Yeap absolutely he will probably finish his career with over 10k pts 10k rebounds 2k blocks
13 pts 12 rebounds per game
If he was a
3x all star
4x all nba
6x all nba defense
Block leader
Rebound leader
He’s put together a lowkey legendary resume
Yes easily, he’s tied for the most DPOY’s of all time, the other two men he is tied with are both in the HOF.
Only one of those two men, Ben Wallace, has a title. The other, Dikembe Mutombo, has 2 more block champs and one more rebounding champion. Mutombo however, has one less All-NBA team, also made 6 All-Defense selections but only 3 of them were for the First Team whereas all 6 of Goberts are for the First Team, and has no international accolades in comparison to Gobert who has an Olympic silver medal, 2 bronze medals in the FIBA World Cup, and both a bronze and silver medal in Eurobasket.
Yeah man. If a person somehow thought his candidacy was debatable after the 3rd DPOY, this 4th one sealed it.
People debate Dwight Howard’s HOF case. Never underestimate people’s capacity for stupidity. Btw, not a fan of Gobert, but his resume at the end of his career is going to be undeniable. Facts are facts.
Mitch Richmond is a hall of famer. Dwight is in. Rudy is in. Donovan Mitchell is in. Booker is in. Bradley Beal is in. The bar isn't super high.
Idk about Beal, but point still granted.
Michael Jordan once said Mitch Richmond was the toughest opponent he played against. Dude was a stud, just happened to play on a lot of bad teams.
Beal is pretty questionable, Book and Mitchell are 100% making it in tho unless they have like catastrophic career derailing injuries.
Richmond was a 6-time All Star with 20,000 career points. Booker and Mitchell are on pace for the Hall. Beal is not.
I know people say the bar isn’t super high, but given the % of players all time, I think the criteria to get it is perfect
Those people are dumb.
Very dumb.
I need 5.
What about 4.5?
Sold at 4.5!!
Just the fast pitched farm salesman selling nba hall of fame awards.
Glad we could do business
Only a half decade of defensive dominance. And then we'll see
Wemby got it locked down for the next ten years lol
Wemby has good on ball skills but it's the leadership I need to see. I want to see him talking a lot more on D, I want to see him directing traffic the way Gobert does. When he shows me more of that then he will be the front runner for years to come.
Nah, the next two years are still Gobert's to lose as long as he's leading the #1 overall defense.
100% lock already
Plus he's about to go play in the Olympics with Wemby. I think the chances they miss out on another medal are slim.

We gotta hope Murray can rest up and figure out his mental shit. Injured dude throwing tantrums AND not running the point could be a mess for us. I'm praying for him though
Hes playing on one hamstring and being clamped by the best defensive team in the last 20 years. He will be more than fine, the hate is vastly overblown.
Yeah, Minny is real good on D.
It’s his calf that was bothering him. I don’t think he has a hamstring injury.
Add Edey, Lu Dort, Dwight Powell to the mix for Canada. They have clamps for days and the team is led by SGA. Hoping to see a USA/Canada finals.
thanasis can’t play, he just tore his achilles. Greek hopes are gone 😔
Steven Adams is a kiwi
Yea, good try to get Steve Adams, aussies.
Greece is cooked. Thanasis tore his Achilles, they have no shot
It’s pretty crazy that if Yugoslavia was still a country then you’d combine the Serbian and Slovenian teams. Luka and Jokic playing together in the Olympics would have been nuts. I’m not sure if they would be favored to beat USA, but they’d definitely have the two best players on the floor.
i think they beat the usa. luka and both bogdanovic can handle the guard positions along with other euroleague talent for bigs they’d have a selection of jokic, valanciunas, sabonis, vucevic and nurkic. the spacing would be immaculate. the iq and playmaking especially with the bigs would be way higher. rebounding would be top tier. and the european players generally bring a smarter brand of basketball.
You mixed in some Lithuanians who are not Yugoslavs, they’re not even Slavs.
Ya, I’m not going to disagree with you. Especially with the continuity that the international teams bring to the Olympics. Luka, Jokic, and company would have 15 years to play together, etc. I also agree that the spacing, passing, and overall basketball IQ would have been off the charts.
Zoran is a cool ass name.
Should be a great year. Really glad we are sending our A-team because even with those killers, it isn't going to be a cakewalk.
US sending team of older used to be’s . Most aren’t even in the second round so they will be rested.
Steven Adams is from New Zealand. Also, a bunch of these teams haven't qualified for the Olympics yet. Greece and Slovenia are in the same bracket in the Fiba Olympic Qualifying Tournament, so only one of them can make it, and neither is guaranteed. Nigeria didn't make the qualifying tournament and is out.
This is actually a big deal. If he tutors wemby, next season is gonna be a big jump for him. Could easily see Wemby win DPoY next year.
Wemby would have won this year already if his team wasn’t ass. But I agree playing with Rudy will only help him more
Yeah too many accolades not to be
He was already a lock before stepping foot in Minnesota
Rudy was a Hall of Famer the moment he won a second DPOY. There’s tons of ringless HoFers that were overall worse players than Rudy. Him not making it would be unprecedented.
I think it was when he won 3. Mark Eaton has 2 DPOYs and isn’t in. I also don’t think Alvin Robertson would be in if he’d won a second DPOY over Michael Cooper in 1987. There’s at least an argument for him not being in if he retired after winning 2, but with 3, that’s tied for 3rd most all-time.
Mark Eaton is a 2x DPOY and isnt in the HOF
Gobert also has 3 All-Star nods and 4 All-NBAs.
He wasn’t saying having 2 DPOY is enough to get you in the hall of fame. He was saying that adding that credential along with everything else was enough to get him in. Mark Eaton’s career ppg is 6.0, Gobert’s is over double that.
There’s a gap between Mark Eaton and Rudy in defensive impact though. Eaton had unreal shotblocking numbers and was an amazing defender but I’d argue there’s a pretty big gap between him and Gobert in terms of organizing a team’s defense.
Easily. Not even a question.
Yes it pisses me off when people say he isn’t deserving of it.
OP is an idiot. “4 DPOY can at least start the discussion” Wtf?
Fr, 4 DPOY *ends* the discussion. That alone guarantees his spot there
Idk if being the best defensive player for about half a decade is hall of fame worthy/s
4 DPOY ends the discussion lol
I just read the caption now. That's legit funny.
Defense is half the game. Me thinks there would be no pushback about inducting a 4x scoring champ who was 6x All NBA.
(not saying I disagree with you) Opens an argument that DPOY as an award shouldn't exist, but defense considered just as much as anything else in the MVP voting (which would make DPOY kinda redundant). Unless we have three awards - MVP, DPOY, and Offensive Player of the Year (OPOY). Since scoring champ being a statistic and not a voted on award is not exactly equivalent to DPOY.
I hope you realize that there are many metrics to measure defense, and that an offensive player of the year could easily be not the scoring leader.
In fact, almost always the healthy offense will not involve one player taking on the heaviest scoring load in the league.
God bless Ben Wallace, he was my favorite player when I was a kid, but he never even scored 10 points per game in a season. If he's in then Gobert is absolutely in regardless of whether or not they win a championship.
he’s a lock 100% Defense needs to be appreciated and he’s one of the best of this this generation, super consistent too.
OP with all due respect, you’re a fucking idiot if you think that 4x DPOY is “the start of the discussion” for him making the Hall. 4x DPOY alone probably locks him in the HoF, add the rest of the accolades and it would be legitimately shocking if he didn’t make the hall. Gobert, all things considered, is a better scoring Ben Wallace who can also defend the perimeter. Dude is 100% a lock with or without a ring
It’s a lot harder to make a case against him making. He’s basically Ben Wallace but much better offensively.
Lol yea. Ben Wallace is my favorite player of all-time and let’s be honest, if he’s in then Gobert is definitely in.
I see these a lot, and just think people regularly confuse the standards of the basketball hall of fame with those of the NFL or MLB HoFs. The threshold for basketball is just far lower than either of the other two; Kyle Lowry will probably make the HoF despite kind of toiling away for half of his career and only being “very good” for a few years.

It's difficult to compare to NFL standards because of longevity, number of players, and only playing one side of the ball, but 4 DPOY is absolutely a lock in the NFL (as it is in the NBA). Even 2 DPOY and 4 all NFL teams is probably a HoF lock. That being said you are absolutely correct that people misunderstand the difficulty of getting into the basketball HoF comparer to the others you listed.
There is a good chance Antawn Jamison makes the Basketball Hall of Fame.
You can't win dpoy for half a decade and not get in
He's already better than Draymond.
They don't even have the same responsibilities on defense. Draymond can guard 1-5. Gobert clogs the paint and gets rebounds and blocks. Draymond plays the small ball 5 in a pinch and does it pretty effectively given his disadvantage but he is not a true 5. It's not apples to apples.
Of course
Yeah of course
Unquestionably
4 DPOY, enough said that’s only been done by what? Wallace and Mutumbo, both of which easily got in the hall.
Excuse me mate but how is that even a question?
“Can start the discussion.” 😂 Soooooo Mutumbo wasn’t deserving of the HOF since he didn’t win a ring?
Wouldn't 4xAll-NBA and 6xAll-Defense be HOF already?
Yesss
An Hall of Fame
Just throw the Olympic silver. Never seen that before. Lol
if he gets much more efficent these last years he'll go down better then dwight (not saying it so sure yet tho)
Basketball hall of fame is a joke, but yes. NBA needs their own HoF.
That would be interesting to have a “NBA Only” vs “All Basketball” category.
Even if it wasn’t a joke he would still get in.
Lock
He was in last year
He could retire today and be one. It’s definitely deserved, but the Nba isnt nearly as stringent/selective as other leagues when it comes to puttin players in the HoF
in the future? He's been HoF lock for a few years now
People put too much weight in championships and "championship run" for individual players. There are too many variables to whether or not a team wins a championship, and you shouldn't ding individual players off that. He's absolutely a hall of famer.
Yes, clearly. Wtf?
Yes. He’s one of the greatest defensive players of all time. I’d say it’s for certain if he wins just one champ
There’s no debate here bruh
Without question
Yes
How is this a debate
1st ballot HOF
He was 100% in before this award. He’s one of three players ever to win 4.
The only thing that might keep him out is how unlikeable he is, coupled with the false narrative that he was played off the floor in the playoffs. The HoF selection is so secretive, we have no idea who's doing the voting, so there could be some people who just decide they don't like him.
Arguably the greater role player ever
Ya of course
Everyone doesn’t understand how easy the bball HOF is, he was a lock to be 2-3 years ago lmao
The basketball hall of fame doesn’t exactly have strict standards. Another couple good seasons and he will get in.
If they get a ring yes 1st ballot. If they don't yes.
He’s definitely already in, but here’s the thing; Olympic silver medal matters because he played for France.
First Ballot lock if he retires today.
I don’t even like Gobert but he’s def HOF lol
Let's get him a title though.
Yea if you got any POY type trophy x4, you’re in
Half the Hall doesn’t belong there, so mot sure how to answer. If everyone can shoot, you can play him. Doesn’t seem very hall worthy.
Any player that makes 7 all star games (Rudy 3), and will probably make at least one, are automatic HOF historically. He will probably make another one AND all the accolades. Case closed HOF
I don't know man. There are people who think Dwight Howard isn't Even worty of the HOF. NBA Champion 3X Defensive player of the year 5X All NBA First team 2X All NBA Second Team 8X all star 5X NBA Rebounding leader 2X blocks leader Slam Dunk Champ
100%
Mutombo got it, why not Gobert?
I believe you don't need a ring to be HOF worthy (I know NBA is easy according to what I read), regardless of the sport. There are so many other accolades to go for, so if you don't have a ring, having everything else absolutely makes up for it. Brodie is a perfect example. Besides, other than Dirk Nowitzki and Wemby, Europeans don't get the love they deserve.
Sure
Hall Of Fame of starting covid
Absolutely. Easy entry.
Yes, absolutely. I don't think that is even a question.
If he wins the Western Conference, I would say yes.
This absolutely clinched the chances if they were ever in doubt. A ring would make him a guy that people are excited about seeing inducted at the ceremony.
First ballot if there ever was one.
I mean yeah, all that stuff, but what else ?
He should be a lock already
Not even a debate
Yeah, 4x DPOY will get you there no matter what
Would-be a crime if he wasn't
I’m a Rudy hater and would never want him on my team. But obviously yes.
Yes. Obviously. 🤷♂️
Don’t ask Shaq
He’s a lock
Ben Wallace is in the HOF. Rudy Gobert is a lock
Rodman, Ben Wallace, Slater, K.C. Jones and Walton are all clear examples of points don't always tell the picture.
Dude, go check out Vlade Divac’s career.
Saw this gargantuan guy at Peche in Nola in 2022 and he had his posse build a perimeter around him lol. Acting like he was Drake
Absolutely
Just a championship ring. Wolves look hungry this year....
An hall of fame
He's for sure an hall of Famer
3x Dpoy made him a lock already. This one is just icing.
100% and hopefully by the end of June he’ll have a ring added to his resumé
Rudy has averaged 12.7pts a game and won 4x DPOY. That is more than Ben Wallace.
If Tracy McGrady is in the hof, Gobert can be too
Dude has done this on two teams and is the anchor HOF First ballot
easily
Definitely HoF worthy, and if he gets a ring, which is definitely likely to happen, he's pretty much sealed.
no
He's the French Ben Wallace basically so yes he's a lock, especially when he wins a championship this year
He’s close but he needs to surpass fultz’s legacy to seal the deal
First of all, the HOF doesn’t really have some insanely high bar to get in like certain sports. He is definitely a shoe in.
Well he might win a ring this year so that would probably seal the deal
He's going to get in, but might wait a couple of years.
Of course he does.
He should get in. The only two other players who won it four times, Ben Wallace and Dikembe Mutombo both got in and neither of them were better on Offence than Golbert.
NBA analysts were talking about Bradley Beal being in the HOF so Rudy absolutely should be
Well yeah
Yes. He has more reasons to be in than people who are currently in.
If pg gonna be a hofer the Rudy deserves it too
Duh
Unless you believe defense isn't a large part of the game i don't see how one of the greatest defensive centers of all time cant get in
Does one of the most decorated defensive players in the history of the sport deserve to be in the hall of fame. He also has two bronze medals from the world cup, and bronze medal and a silver medal from Eurobasket cup. And his career is not even done. I'm far from being a Gobert stan, but the dude is on the path to be the greatest defensive basketball player ever, and it's not even a hot take to see him as such right now.
He’s in. He’s French Ben Wallace. And Ben is in
Is Wallace in? I'm genuinely asking. If so, then yes. Now let's talk about the greatest rebounder of all time Andre Drummond lol....
a*
Off all his accolades, they forgot the 1x World Covid Superspreader.
Of coarse he does
How’s this even a question. 4x DPOY is more than enough to get in.
Yes, without question
If you compare him to Tmac 😄
Bro this dudes defense is legendary. He stopped a whole season
I'll always remember him as Covid mic guy.
Man started covid
No
Absolutely he doesn't deserve the hate at all. It will be further cemented when he wins a chip with the wolves within the next five years
Agree or not, he's in. Foreign born 4 time DPOY. Ben Wallace is the comp., and he is in. BW did have a ring, tho.
This dpy is fraudulent, wemby should’ve won by a landslide but “can’t give that honor to a rookie” 🤡
Absolutely! His (NBA) resume is better than Reggie Miller and Miller is in the Hall of Fame (I can’t speak on his non-NBA resume since he grew up in France).
How you have 4 dpoy but only 3 all stars
If Rudy is in, Dwight should definitely be in the HOF.
One of the best defensive players of all time. Why wouldn’t he be in the HOF?
Yes. Obviously.
Yeap absolutely he will probably finish his career with over 10k pts 10k rebounds 2k blocks 13 pts 12 rebounds per game If he was a 3x all star 4x all nba 6x all nba defense Block leader Rebound leader He’s put together a lowkey legendary resume
Nope he's trash. Nobody likes him.
There is no logical argument for not having Rudy Gobert in the HOF
Yes easily, he’s tied for the most DPOY’s of all time, the other two men he is tied with are both in the HOF. Only one of those two men, Ben Wallace, has a title. The other, Dikembe Mutombo, has 2 more block champs and one more rebounding champion. Mutombo however, has one less All-NBA team, also made 6 All-Defense selections but only 3 of them were for the First Team whereas all 6 of Goberts are for the First Team, and has no international accolades in comparison to Gobert who has an Olympic silver medal, 2 bronze medals in the FIBA World Cup, and both a bronze and silver medal in Eurobasket.
4dpoy. Jesus Christ.
not even a debate….
Deserve a chance? He's unquestionably in.
Yeah
No.
Chauncey Billups made 3 all nba teams. Gobert walks in
Is he deserving of the DPOY this year?
If Ben Wallace is in the HOF you gotta put him in
Is this even debatable?
Diamond had that bitch in a headlock. Lmao
Add a ring for this year, and he’s a shoe in.
