Even though Rudy Gobert is one of the best defenders in the league, he definitely has a lot of detractors. One of those people is Draymond Green, and the duo has notably had a rivalry due to them both being elite defensive players.
Draymond Green recently took a shot at Rudy Gobert, following the center throwing a punch at teammate Kyle Anderson and subsequently getting sent home by the team for his actions. He used one of Rudy Gobert’s old Tweets, which talked about insecurity.
Insecurity is always loud…

Rudy Gobert was not having a good game at the time of his altercation with Kyle Anderson, but the team managed to rally after his ejection. It is clear that Draymond Green took the opportunity to throw shade at his rival.
Rudy Gobert Previously Stated That He Can’t Take Draymond Green Seriously
Rudy Gobert and Draymond Green have had many back-and-forth exchanges on Twitter. At one point, Rudy Gobert was asked about some comments Draymond Green made about him, with Gobert stating that it’s “just noise” to him.
“It’s just noise to me. If anything when people keep talking about you, they’re targeting you in some way it means you’re doing something right. I’m going to keep trying to be the best Rudy I can be on and off the court, for my team.”
“The more these people try to discredit what I do or what my team does, it means we’re doing something right. If anything, the more noise, the harder it becomes to take these people seriously. It’s unfortunate that when you have that big of a platform, you use it to entertain the crowd… when you’re great at what you do you don’t need to talk down anybody.”
There is no doubt that it would be entertaining to see a series between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Golden State Warriors, just so we can watch a potential matchup between Draymond Green and Rudy Gobert. Any game between the two teams is bound to be fiery and exciting, and hopefully, we do get to see them face off against one another at some point in the future.
