The rotation to the corner comes from the wing instead (which is why Green and Frank and Bullock are valuable...they do this really well). I assume we'd do the same thing for Gobert, which neutralizes one of the anti-Gobert arguments (same for Turner BTW).
Good point. And tbh, even if teams DO figure out a way to force Dallas into those situations, both Gobert and Turner seem to be more suited for success with that than KP. It's counterintuitive in Gobert's case, I know, but he moves way more quickly than Porzingis in the defensive half-court.
