The Lakers do it somewhat with LeBron. He does a little of it. AD does it some

but you are correct in saying the large majority of teams don’t use post ups to attack mismatches.

So what teams still use post ups? The Clippers didn't and yet they won.

Any competent team uses a post up when their big is guarded by a smaller dude

I agree. When there is a mismatch Gobert needs to post up. It's just not in

I think teams would welcome that. He’s awkward in the post

They would also be forced to cave in on him and it would open up a few wide

I’m not sure they would. Has Rudy ever shown an ability to score in the post?

If the Jazz want to post up Rudy as part of the offense any team would welcome

Yes! I'm 6'6" and if a 5'10" guy tries to guard me, I laugh. I go post up, turn

really? it's simple basketball. Post scorers...Kawhi, Embiid, Jokic, Davis

I think the post up is different today than it use to be. A lot of these players

You don’t even need to post him up, but Rudy needs to punish them on the glass

and the Jazz lost and they didn't win. Basketball is about matchups. You exploit

It’s his biggest weakness and why people are hesitant to call him a star
