On May 10, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA playoffs continued. Earlier today, Jazz center Gobert responded to some recent remarks by Lakers star O'Neal, saying he was able to defend O'Neal during the game.
The cause of the incident came from a show in which O'Neill talked about Jazz player Gobert. Spice Adams, a recent hit, told O'Neal: "Gobert can prevent you until you score 12 points per game." O'Neill said: "Yes, he can prevent me from taking 12 points in 3 minutes!" ”
Because of this, after the famous media BR released this O'Neill interview show, Gobert personally responded, commenting below: "I can prevent him from dying in the game!" And with a locked expression. Gobert's response quickly attracted heated discussion among fans and the media, and was rushed to the number one position in the national hot search.
However, under Gobert's comments, fans mostly mocked him for not being self-sufficient, with some fans writing: "Have you seen how O'Neal treated Mutombo in the 2001 finals?" "No one can defend O'Neill at his peak!" "Brother, you can't do it!" "O'Neill will get Gobert into foul trouble!" It is worth mentioning that Beverly also commented on the incident, saying: "O'Neill is a legend! ”
It should be noted that O'Neill has always been critical of Gobert. When Gobert got a $205 million contract, O'Neill publicly mocked: "What an inspirational role model, averaging $200 million in contracts from 11 points per game!" ”
The Jazz were eliminated by the Lone Rangers in the first round of the playoffs this season, and O'Neill also pointed the finger at Gobert, saying that the Jazz should not keep Gobert, saying: "Deal with Gobert, who wants to give a player who can't score so much salary?" The rules of the NBA game are changing, and defense can win championships, but offense can too. Gobert is a great player, a great defensive player, but he doesn't contribute anything on the offensive end. ”
