In 1992, within a family that was not wealthy. A professional basketball player and an ordinary woman gave birth to a little boy.

But after that, the husband abandoned his wife and left alone, leaving only the mother and son to rely on each other. The wife does not have a well-paid job and has experienced two marriages. But fortunately, she is a hardworking mother.

For the sake of her family, she worked several jobs by herself. Not only haircuts, but also work in restaurants.

Because of the rudimentary nature of the cheap apartment, the boy was left to live with his mother in a small space. Of course, the boy seems to be overly "active". Young boys' excess hormones always make it difficult for him to discipline. got into a fight at school for three days, and was even expelled from the school basketball team for it.

How to cure this feisty little guy? The mother came up with a way to get the child to participate in a variety of sports. The woman remembered the boy's innate "basketball DNA", although the woman felt a heartache when she remembered the origin of this DNA.

So, the woman sent the little boy to the academy of the Saulai basketball team. At the beginning, she may not have known that she was just disciplining her children, and she had inadvertently added a huge fortune to the basketball world.

The mother's name was Corneer. Goebel, Rudy. Goebel took her surname, not his father.

"Hey, Rudy, are you ready!?"

On April 20, 2015, in Game 2 of the first round of the NBA playoffs, the Dallas Mavericks played against the New Orleans Pelicans again.

Before the game began, Yiyang clapped his hands vigorously at Gobert. He has high expectations for the Frenchman, and he believes this guy will make Davis suffer today.

"Come on, I'm ready!" After Gobert finished speaking, he followed Yiyang and his teammates to let out a "whoop" shout and rushed out of the locker room.

One Chinese, one French. A defender, a center. One by technical talent, the other by physical talent. It seems that these two guys can't fight together. But perhaps it is precisely because of their extremely similar childhood experiences that they have a sense of refreshment.

Ever since Yiyang first met Gobert, he thought that guy was particularly pleasing to the eye. Especially, when he wants to do everything possible and wants to successfully cover himself.

"Hello viewers, welcome to the second game of the Dallas Mavericks and New Orleans Pelicans, this is ESPN!" When the players were all out of the tunnel, Mike. Brin uttered the classic opening line.

Before the start of the game, many reporters were already in Anthony. 360° crazy shooting around Davis. This last game, which cut a 35+13 super interior line, is considered the only hope for the Pelicans to win a game.

On Goebel's side, there are no cameras that shoot around him in 360°. But beside him, there is a 360° Yiyang who is urging him to warm up.

This center, who "exploded" 8 points in the last game, is considered by Yiyang to be the only hope that the Pelicans can't win a game.

"Remember, Rudy. Eat him thoroughly, and we'll win. It's not this one game, it's a whole series, and we've all won! ”

Goebel nodded slightly, Anthony. Davis didn't know that his playoff intensity had been raised another notch.

After the opening, the aggressive Gobert took the lead in the basketball. The Mavericks' offense vs. the Pelicans' defense, there's not much to say. This time, Wade broke through directly by himself through the pick-and-roll. After a small throw hit in the three-second zone, "The Flash" continued to show his killer nature.

And the Pelicans' first offense, without any surprises, hit Davis as soon as it came up.

Instead of holding the ball in the three-second zone, Davis went to mid-range and was ready to catch it.

But Gobert didn't give Davis any space today, and as soon as "Brother Thick Eyebrows" received the basketball, Gobert raised his arms and stuck to it.

Seeing this, Anthony. Davis holds the ball and goes inside. The corners of Yiyang's mouth turned up slightly, and you have entered the realm that belongs to Goebel!

Gobert had been prepared for a long time, and he knew that Davis would definitely take the opportunity to break through. So he was not caught off guard by the opponent's sudden breakthrough, but a planned retreat!

Davis was taken aback, there aren't many interior players in this league who can keep up with him so quickly. To be exact, apart from the Kings' guy named Cousins, Gobert is the second interior player who hasn't been erased by Davis with speed.

Gobert stuck to Davis, and Davis's breakthrough route was completely blocked, so he had to turn to his own advance. Seeing Davis playing alone with his back, Yiyang's still hanging heart suddenly relaxed.

After that, Davis turned around and lowered his hand to make a layup. But there is no doubt that he thought of Goebel too simply. This trick is okay against Durham Porter, but against Gobert? There is only one result!

"Fan out the bottom line! Rudy. Gobert Jean Anthony. Davis hit a wall on his first offense! Incredible defensive specialist, Davis has to be careful today! ”

The first offense was miserably blocked, which was a big blow to the Pelicans' morale.

Two minutes later, under the powerful firepower of Yiyang and Wade, the Pelicans fell behind 8-0 as soon as they came up.

Anthony. Davis was still trying to hold the ball in the middle distance, but found that the Gobert guy was following him every step of the way, and there was no space for him to connect to the ball.

If Yiyang is on the Pelicans, he may still have a way to pass the ball to Davis in this situation. But Gordon, he's clearly not the material. This guy only knows how to pass the ball to the basket, not to his teammates.

In this way, Davis had to press low and lean his back against Gobert for the ball. But choosing to hold the ball with his back, Davis also chose the way he is least good at attacking.

Turn around and hook your hand, Anthony. Davis's hook moves are still very beautiful. But for Yiyang, his hook hand is not as good as Isaiah. Thomas's little jump hook is threatening.

Basketball knocks out of the box, Anthony. Davis still scoreless two minutes into the game. Gobert's defense has been doing well so far, at least as well as Yiyang imagined.

In the sixth minute of the first quarter of the game, when Yiyang faked a real pass outside the three-point line and assisted Vedra to score a layup along the baseline line, the score on the court had become 18-8, and the New Orleans Pelicans only scored 8 points. Davis contributed 0 points.

Not good from mid-range, Davis decided to try his hand from beyond the three-point line. He used off-ball screens like a guard to the top of the three-point line, his favorite position.

Then, substitute Gordon played a pass from Holiday behind and sent the ball to Davis.

In Yiyang's opinion, this guy Holiday is obviously better able to organize the team's offense, I don't know why Monty. Williams will put this true point guard on the bench.

As soon as Davis lifted the basketball, Gobert took two big steps, squeezed Holiday away, and rushed to Davis.

Davis regretted it as soon as he made a move, he didn't expect that Frenchman to be able to keep up with his own pace!

"Smack!"

Yiyang started running towards the Pelicans half the moment Gobert completed the block, and his reflexes were surprisingly fast.

Sure enough, when Yiyang had already received the basketball that was fanned out by Gobert and hit the basket, the Pelicans players had just reacted and were about to return to defense.

Yiyang staged his own one-handed split, and there was jubilation in the arena of the American Route Center.

20-8, the Mavericks are even more exaggerated today, and it seems that from the first quarter of the game, they don't plan to give the Pelicans too many chances.

Rudy. Gobert didn't score a point in six minutes without Davis, and the camera on set had begun to move more and more from Davis to Gobert.

After the first quarter, Gobert continued to play his own heat on the defensive end. He's tough-willed, tough, never backs down, and knows how to master the opposing team's offensive lines.

There's Gobert standing in the three-second zone. The Pelicans' vaunted offensive point was also muted.

Until Davis was Monty. When Williams came off, he took six shots and hit just one shot to score two points.

Gobert also only scored two points, but his performance of 2 blocks and 5 rebounds made him the most dazzling Mavericks player outside the two shots of Wade and Yiyang in the first quarter of the game.

In the second quarter of the game, Nowitzki also began to exert his power. Turkish center Omir. Asik could be a match for Dirk, taking a step back from the free throw line and rolling over for a jumper. The Germans took points on the Turks in the most relaxed way.

Yiyang, Wade, Nowitzki, when all three are on fire, no team's defense works. The only thing you can do is try to maintain or overtake on the offensive end.

This time, Gordon borrowed Asik's cover to shoot to the basket. Because he saw that there was only Dirk protecting that side, not Gobert!

But as the saying goes, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind. When Gordon leaned on Dirk, who couldn't jump, for a layup, he realized that behind Dirk, Gobert had jumped high!

Across Nowitzki, Gobert once again completed the block and protected the basket!

Anthony. Davis was lucky, he just caught the basket in the middle range and then broke through!

Davis rose to the ground, his hands held high, ready to dunk!

However, what is unbelievable is that Gobert's second jump is amazingly fast! He was able to jump high again in such a short period of time and complete the second consecutive block in the air!

"Block dunk, Rudy. Goebel, he's a desperate suffocating tower today! "Mike. Unbeknownst to Brin, the name he casually uttered became Goebel's best-known nickname in the future.

After the block, Davis was unsteady and about to fall. Gobert pulled Davis and gently "put" him on the ground, then sped away to participate in the fast break.

Davis slammed the floor, and today, the Mavericks don't even plan to keep a chance to close the score?

If Yiyang knew that Davis had such a question, he would definitely nod without hesitation. In the playoffs, it's best not to leave any suspense behind.

Davis' offense was blocked, and the entire Pelicans' offense was almost paralyzed. Gobert played dominantly on the defensive end today, repeatedly letting Mike Brown play on the defensive end. Brin shouted and cut his throat.

Davis, on the other hand, is getting more and more urgent, and the more urgent he is, the less efficient he becomes.

After halftime, the Pelicans trailed by 20 points. 55 to 35, both offensively and defensively, the Pelicans were completely outnumbered by the Mavericks.

With 8 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks in the half, Gobert finally stopped looking at Anthony alone. Davis. The Mavericks' No. 27 tower is just as good.

The game didn't improve in the end, and Davis still scored 22 points in the end. But the 38.4% shooting rate only sets off how terrifying Gobert's defense is.

Yiyang and Wade combined for 50 points for the first time in this year's playoffs, which was the biggest highlight of the game. Other than that, it's Rudy. Gobert too.

"2-0, this series is really not suspenseful at all. Now, Anthony. Davis was also locked up, and the Pelicans lost their only hope. This furnace has finally turned the French into one of the most formidable suffocating towers! ”

In fact, not only the Pelicans, but Gobert's performance also sounded the alarm for other teams.

He's right here, and he's not going to run away on his own. Want to score in the basket? Then take care of him yourself! But looking at the Pelicans' end, how many teams do they think they can handle Gobert?

The tower from France seems to have finally touched the sky. And the only suspense in the first round of the game was also pierced by him.
