What kind of player can Gobert be?

I never said chandler suckss
I said i dont put him in the company of wilt, shaq, and hakeem.
Do you?

Also i already told your dumbass that the big three you mentioned play both sides of the ball and goberts game is not like thiers.

You are currently getting trolled by Thriller.

This is the saddest thing I have ever seen. I'm here for you if you need a hug.

I would be thrilled if he could be the next Mark Eaton, Mark Eaton lite that is. Like Eaton, Gobert has little to no offense. Gobert might have a slight edge in athletic ability, but not by much. The thing Eaton has over Gobert is a massive presence in post defense and being a lane clogged with his length and girth. I don't think Gobert will ever possess Eaton's strength, and body mass.

The comment in bold is only off by approximately a million miles.. Gobert is way more athletic than Eaton.

Why the **** doesn't everybody see this? It just totally boggles my mind.

Hehe.

Gobert can be an impact player on the 1st unit. Defensive presence to go along with a couple of great scorers (like Burks). Agree he has terrible hands right now, but that can be worked on. As jope said, you can't teach size. Lindsey said Gobert was a player a lot of teams were sleeping on and I agree. He's raw for sure, but let's see how he develops over the course of 2-3 months

Fixed.
Even I -a huge Gobert homer - underestimated the speed of his progression. As for athleticism, there is NO comparison to Eaton. I'd love to have seen Mark attempt a euro step. Talk about breaking ankles!

Floor: Alexis Anjinca

Ceiling: Smart(er) McGee w/ less athletic ability

lol

lol

What is lol?

McGee had limitless potential but didn't really have the iq or motivation to play like a true center.

Reading this thread I really got flamed by a few people for saying that gobert could be as good as tyson Chandler one day.

 

[fishonjazz]

Gobert can be like Javale McGee on a good day, not as athletic though.

Lol

 

[fishonjazz]

Poor man's Shawn Bradley.

We're really comparing Gobert to Noah and Chandler in this thread?

At some point in their careers, Noah and Chandler were top centers in the NBA. I should add that I think Noah currently is one of the top centers in the league…one of the top players overall.

I would be shocked if Gobert was anything close to those guys.

Realism isn't always more fun, but it is far more useful in life.

I was being way to unrealistic by saying that gobert could be as good as tyson Chandler

 

[fishonjazz]

I'm just saying I don't ever see him as being as good as Noah or Chandler. This ain't that difficult.
