Rudy Gobert seems to be smiling for the camera a bit with his arch-nemesis getting into hot water this week.
The Minnesota Timberwolves center Gobert shared an interesting message to Twitter on Friday. “Insecurity is always loud,” tweeted Gobert.
Insecurity is always loud.

The timing here probably is not a coincidence. Earlier in the day Friday, the bombshell video of Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green throwing a vicious punch at teammate Jordan Poole in practice was leaked (see it here).
Green, one of the louder players in the NBA, has plenty of history with Gobert. The two have prominently feuded over the last several seasons (though it usually consists of Green taking unprompted shots at Gobert while Gobert takes the high road).
The former Defensive Player of the Year Gobert may now be done taking the high road though. Gobert has also used the “insecurity is loud” line to throw shade at other NBA rivals in the past.
