I actually watched that game. What's not evident from those stats is the fact that he now has a pretty sweet stroke as well too (something Gobert doesn't yet have).


He's gonna be scary good in a couple of years.

I'd still take Gobert 10/10 times. I love that Whiteside is a two-way player, but Gobert has a bigger impact on the game. Whiteside gets more blocks, but Gobert is flat out better at stopping the opponent from scoring, as advanced stats show. Also, let's not forget that Gobert is three years younger than Whiteside. I'm sure that Gobert will be perfectly capable of averaging 12 PPG (what Whiteside averages) three years from now.

Was such a disappointing game. Cleveland's not on the same level as GS and SA; they don't display synergy as a unit.

Let's face it though they're build for the playoffs not the regular season... they WILL be competitive in a 7 game series against GSW in June but not right now.

I wouldn't pencil in GS to be in the Finals. Spurs are crazy good.

Yah, I believe this coming Monday is the first time they'll square off. First of 4 CRAZY GOOD games.


The season's just getting started... LOL..

I wouldn't even be surprised if the Spurs throw the games against them. Just trying out stuff and maybe sit their core for one of those games. Each quarter a new coverage and new help rotations.
 
Devin Booker with a career high 32pts, 6-11 from 3's.



Still don't think he's there yet defensively, but looks like he'll be a good contributor offensively.
