Evan Mobley: 2023 All Defensive 1st Team

[foucault87]

All these growth spurt tweets — why haven’t we seen a tweet about Okoro shrinking from 6’8” to 6’2”?

I think he was 5'2 last i heard

That pool must have been really cold.

If he could start to score at a bigger clip, actually show some emotion on defense and rebound in the playoffs, I would take that over a bit taller/bigger. My expectations for him have taken such a nosedive.

This has some repeated plays from the other videos, but it's still fun to watch:

Interesting solution suggestion about the team's true SF hole in the starting lineup by Zach Lowe on his podcast today.

Let Mobley guard the more potent scoring forward [SF or PF] on the opposing team and then hide Strus defensively on the other forward.

That would be a bit difficult in the East. Tatum/Porzingis, Middleton/Giannis, Butler/Adebayo, and Barrett/Randle are bad Strus match-ups at both spots.

I saw strus handle his own past 2 seasons. Struss defense is very underrated across the league

I think we'd end up getting killed on the boards if Mobley spent a lot of time chasing guys around the 3 point line. If Mobley gets drawn out there because one of their bigs steps out and Strus is matched up with a similar sized player for the rebound, then fine. But if Strus is going to be expected to battle for boards with guys considerably bigger on a regular basis, I don't think it works well for us. Especially if DG & DM are on the floor with him. Our 2 guards are not rebounders and Allen is not the kind of guy you can leave on a rebounding island and expect him to win consistently.

This scrub needs to step his game up.

Brobley just led his team to a ring and won MVP.

If Evan improved from year 2 to year 3 as much as Brobley improved in 1 year, Evan is about to wreck the league, lol

Thinking Basketball did a podcast on who will have the best career from the last 3 drafts. Spoiler alert: they both really like Mobley. Also fun that it’s episode 216.
