Evan Mobley: 2023 All Defensive 1st Team

[InBoobieWeTrust]

Love him, absolutely love his defense.

Btw, is it me or I have never seen him set a screen, like, ever? He gets in position and moves before the play gets there. I think he would get a few more opportunities if he actually set the screen for a P&R

He sets screens. He’s really skinny though. He set Garland free a number of times in the 2nd half tonight specifically even if you go back and watch the tape.

That will come in due time. They have him slipping much more often than rolling by design, makes better use of his unique passing abilities from the mid post.

Mobley will eventually develop that fade away into a Dirk fade level play. Too big, too fast, too long.

Mobility tonight:

32 mins
16 pts on 8/11 shooting
9 rebounds
5 blocks
2 steals
1 TO
1 PF (how is this even possible as a big playing 30+ mins?)
Game leading +28

when he's off, you can kinda tell. when he's on, it's obvious. very smooth in both phases.

That one block he grabbed out of mid air, does he get a block and a rebound on that play?

that type of play should be a block and a steal

They had Jarrett Allen mic'ed up last night on the broadcast last night. On a couple of Mobley's blocks, as he watched from the bench, his only comment was "wrong guy!" LOL.

He does set screens. His screens are funny though... he has that bitch slap move he does with his arm to create some separation... watch it closely. It's hilarious.

Had to laugh at ”I’ve been working on that!” after he hit a midrange jumper

The Fro is hilarious. I love the chemistry on the team.

Mobley said JBB has been talking to him about being more aggressive when he's checked by "littles". We saw that last night when the Bulls had a 6'5" guard on him to start the game. Mobley got 8 of the first 9 points and forced them to change their game plan.

Why should it be a steal?

It goes as a block and a rebound. Same way any other would get a rebound if they control the ball after a Mobley block.

Love the way he calls them littles
