On May 10, Beijing time, Gobert finally got angry! He responded to O'Neill's taunts on social media: "I can prevent him!" This harsh remark has been ridiculed by a large number of fans, for the simple reason that O'Neal is considered the most dominant big man, and even though Gobert has been elected the best defensive player three times, not many people still think that he can defend O'Neal. The confrontation between the two quickly rushed to the first place in the national hot search.
Gobert responded with O'Neill's 3-minute 12-point remarks. On a previous show, a host said that Gobert could limit O'Neill to 12 points in a single game, and O'Neal said that Gobert's defense would allow him to score 12 points in 3 minutes! These words made Gobert intolerable, and directly threatened to prevent O'Neill!
Witty as Wade, don't forget to rub a wave of heat. He retweeted the news of the two-man confrontation with the caption: "Do you want to settle [the grudge]at next season's Utah All-Star Weekend?" "Wade is now the little boss of sir Utah, using hot events to promote Utah All-Stars, and the Flash is really smart.
It's worth mentioning that this is at least the fourth time O'Neill has taunted Gobert!
In January 2021, O'Neal posted a PS picture of himself on the social media with gobert, and wrote: "(If the two of us are in alignment), I can get 45 points and 16 rebounds in the third quarter, 10 free throws miss (don't forget to blacken a hand), he is about 11 points and 4 rebounds, and then six fouls left the game." ”
Soon after, O'Neill teased Gobert about his two-hundred-million contract. "It's really an inspirational role model, a player who averages 11 points per game can get two hundred million contracts."
After being eliminated by the Lone Ranger this season, O'Neill sprayed Gobert again: "Dealing with Gobert, who would want to give a player who can't score that much salary?" The rules of the game are changing, and defense wins championships, and offense can. Gobert is a fantastic player, but he doesn't contribute anything on the offensive end. ”
Now, O'Neal has said he can score 12 points in three minutes under Gobert's defense. The last center to be repeatedly mocked by O'Neill was "Warcraft" Howard. Some US media posted an antagonistic data map of Anthony when he blew up McGigie, saying that this is what O'Neill looks like against Gobert. Anthony had 56 points and 10 rebounds, 22-of-30, and McGighee had 4 points and 2 rebounds. Do you think O'Neill can blow up Gobert?
