Yep, my position:
It becomes MUCH more difficult for Gobert to cover for the defensive sins of his teammates the deeper things go in the playoffs.
I think if Gobert had better perimeter defenders his team would be incredible defensively in the playoffs, but when his perimeter players aren't that strong, his ability to cover for them dissipates.
