On May 15, Beijing time, The NBA official announced that Gobel, one of the inner core of the Timberwolves, was fined 75000 dollars because of his "counting money" action in the Western Hemifinal, questioning the integrity of the league and the referee's improper and unprofessional posture, and this fine was based on the past history of Gobel's misconduct towards the referee, but Gobel now responded and denied that his improper gesture was mocking the referee, The expression is just emotion.
Gobel was absent from G2 in the western semi-final because of the birth of a child. The Timberwolves beat Denver by 26 points, expanding their 2-0 lead in total. In the two games after Gobel's comeback, the Timberwolves lost at home consecutively, and the Nuggets tied 2-2 in total.
Gobel made his debut in the two games of his comeback. Although he is the best defender in the new division and has won the first place in DPOY for four times in his career, he can't limit Jokic's power at all.
The specific performance of Gobel's two comebacks is as follows:
G3: 6 points and 4 rebounds.
G4: 11 points and 14 rebounds, including 5 in 9 free throws, plus 5 errors and 5 fouls.
Gobel's sluggish performance was questioned by the outside world, and Gobel himself was also repeatedly "muddled" on the court. When there was 4:09 left at the end of the Western semi-final G4, Goebbels was dissatisfied with the penalty and made a mockery at the referee, leading to a fine of 75000 dollars by the league.
In the game in which the Timberwolves lost to the Cavaliers in March this year, Goebbels graduated early for six offences at the last moment. He also made a move of counting money at that time, and publicly criticized the referee after the game. At that time, he was fined 100000 dollars.
Now Goebbels responded in an interview before the game: "I'm not surprised at this. This gesture does not represent any information, but just emotions. I have to control my emotions. This will be a game full of physical confrontation, but also a game full of emotions. I must control my emotions."
