I mean damn!"He finished Sunday's loss with 11 points, 14 rebounds, one assist and one block while shooting 3/5 from the field in 35 minutes of playing time.
"Isn't Rudy Gobert the DPOY? Why is it all the time he's the DPOY in the regular season but he's a defensive liability come playoff time?"The Timberwolves had won the first two games of the series in Denver, but the Nuggets were able to respond with two victories in Minnesota.Whoever wins the series will advance to the Western Conference Finals and face off against either the Oklahoma City Thunder or the Dallas Mavericks.
