The Minnesota Timberwolves just became the very first team in the Western Conference to reach 20 wins in the 2023 campaign. The win came at the hands of the Miami Heat. Timberwolves managed to showcase their amazing talents with the aid of their young talents.
Even after the team showcased impeccable talent, Rudy Gobert seemed to be at his all-time low. However, players like Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns contributed in place of Rudy Goberts with 32 points and 18 points, respectively. Across most of the games that have been played, sports analyzers noticed a certain pattern. Timberwolves tend to start slow and then go on to pick up the pace as the game progresses.
Rudy Goberts joined the young Minnesota team as a leader. However, his full potential is yet to be realized. Still, he has pinpointed the problems his team is facing at the moment, and it seems that he has a solution. In a post-match interview, Gobert said, “If we want to play for something bigger, we got to start better, and maybe we got to punch each other before the game or something like that, just to be ready to be physical.”
The statement not only showed what Goberts feels is the right direction for the team but also what he thinks about his recent altercation against Draymond Green. During a heated altercation between the two teams, Draymond Green placed Rudy Goberts in a headlock. This left Green suspended from five games. Fans and critics clearly said that the incident was very unprofessional and unsportsmanlike.
