I guess we'll see if Gobert can develop any kind of post game at all.
+4.0 Offensive on/off
+8.0 Defensive on/off
+12.0 Net on/off
Even though he was not very effective in Game 6 (we should never pile on a player for one bad game) he was THE anchor for the D of UTA in the PLAYOFFS and they were 8 pts better defensively with him playing AND he was a positive on the offensive side.
O'Neal has long been their weak link...-14.6 on D just in the playoffs. Favors was -8.8 on D in the playoffs.
I still think Gobert is an elite top 10 player and you can build a team around him. I cannot imagine what you guys would have been saying about Dirk at the respective stage of his career.
