We have no expectations of being a contender, we have a plethora of 1st round picks. We should be a bottom of the barrel team, but god damn this is fun.

If you watch the last play again whenever NAW punches the ball out the ref raises his hand about to call a foul and rightfully swallowed his whistle.
 
So, Kessler is averaging almost2 blocks a game in 15 minutes of play, and 4 blocks per 36 minutes. Is he the top rim protector in the league or is this a case of no one knowing better and challenging him because he’s a rookie?
Rim protection is correlated with blocks, but it's not a 1:1 thing.

Like one of the final plays Kuminga sent Walker flying with a pump fake because he wanted to chase the block and it resulted in him giving up an easy paint bucket to Kuminga. That's the stuff he will have to learn, when to stay down, to become an elite rim protector.
