Oui Oui Gobert!

Everyone keep your feet on the ground. If Gobert is Larry Sanders, we should be throwing a party. Hell, I'm not sure Derrick Favors is as good as Larry Sanders.

Gobert has been compared to javale mcgee and Larry sanders in this thread, two freak of nature athletes.

People is crazy.

But Larry SAnders does not have a 9'7" reach. Gobert can be an elite defender...if he can add some weight.

Larry Sanders is arguably the best big man defender in the NBA. Gobert doesn't have the strength to hold his own on the block right now.

LOL.

Favors couldn't hold his own on the block last season, so Gobert will be a rag doll for a while.

The kid is big, but needs to put on plenty of weight.

Larry Sanders got exposed in the playoffs against Miami. Favor is a way better player overall.

Rudy Gobert jumped through all of the official hoops — buyout with French team, FIBA clearance — and officially signed with the Utah Jazz.

Now he can play in the summer league.

Good. I'd rather have him developed here right away instead of waiting a few years. Neto is a different story. He can stay in Europe for a few. Too bad they haven't gotten Tomic to come over yet, I'd like to see what he and Gobert would look like as a tag-team. One 7+ for offense, and one for defense.

Except they can't just tag out at half court.

Time will tell..
Sanders is good, but he doesn't have any scoring game.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Didn't see the game, but it sounds like Rudy was one of the positives from the game. Can't wait for him to spend some time working with Malone, Favors and Kanter. He looks like he might have a bright future ahead if he's able to put on some weight and some offensive go to moves. Glad they bought the pick and snagged him like they did. Excited to see him develop. Core 6?

He's already better than Evans.

Evans has not improved in any noticeable way in 3 years. I only saw the 4th quarter today but isn't a 3rd year player supposed to have some sort of impact?
