@Malta breh you got any gobert highlight videos i could check out? i haven't seen much of utah this year and was wondering what he's been able to do since the highlights i have seen are quite impressive.

What he's doing is simple really, he's got the highest standing reach in the NBA and the biggest wing span, you combine that with a high IQ and an athletic/mobile 7'2" frame you end up with a monster on defense. He's another one of those guys that had a late growth spurt like David Robinson, Anthony Davis and Dwight Howard, it seems like those guys end up with really good lateral movement and can become excellent defenders. He was an SG for most of his life before shooting up to his current height, seems he retained that coordination like Brow/Dwight/Robinson




The advanced stats on him are insane, he leads the NBA in opponent FG% at the rim by a wide margin (allows only 38% FG), his contests lead to the most saved points in the league, when they put him in the PnR the roll man is shooting 26% against him. The Jazz right now have the best defense in the league because of him, he's essentially a roaming one man zone, and when you combine that with Favors it's really hard to score in the lane against them.

[THE K-MAN]

[954UAlreadyknow]

whats that comp like compared to the NCAA?

Grown men play there but the domestic comp sucks. He's there because he got paid to fatten his numbers up

 

[LV Koopa]

Now that Tyrone Corbin is out of the picture, sure. Their backcourt is still subpar but they have 3 legit good players on the team.

Don't buy it then. I know you can't stand DJ gettin' this type of shine. Well this is gonna make you even more madder- If this is the new DJ I wouldn't mind Blake taking a back seat to DJ. I'm normally a Blake stan but DJ's got that fire, attitude, swag and energy now. No more time for that passive, quiet, whiny sh*t Blake's been coming with. CP3 and DJ have been flat out amazing of late.

We beat a full Grizzlies squad without Blake.. wtf you talkin' about? I thought we was damn near gonna fall out the playoff race with Blake out. I'm still down with Blake but he better bring it when he comes back. No more of that passive- unsure of what to do next sh*t

That same squad got blown out by Sacramento before that gm. They always look shaky after the AS break.

Blake better be smart and take another 2wks off. I really need hin to chill.

Watch his dumbazz come back sunday and lose to GS.
