McDaniels got away with the trip on Luka. Not cool. That is how dudes get hurt.

He tripped Luka purposely.
Can't look at that?

I thought Luka was just complaining but that actually did look intentional.

Imagine this going to game 7, he's going to look retired

It’s more so him losing his legs from playing intense defense, but that to be fair is a result of being 40
The groin is still clearly an issue, that’s much moreso the issue than being aged 40 I would say

Gobert is actually decent in isolation. He's not as good as an elite wing but he's not easy to cook. Luka and a lot of players are just so amazing they makes it look easy. Those are still usually difficult shots.
One thing that has always bothered me is that Rudy Gobert has always graded out as one of the better perimeter centers in the NBA, but has a weird reputation for being a plodding shot blocker.

This game has gotten ugly.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;

If Rudy had just average hands he’d be a 10x better player.

Wolves are really trying to hurt Luka. League needs to review that McDaniels trip.
