    Yes and no; I didn't get to see the first half, but CJ and Dame abused him by the end; he wasn't going for blocks against their extended layups.

    Gobert sucks against Portland... Always has. Stotts plays him excellently.

    Gobert is like a less offensively talented Roy Hibbert (when he was good)

    Gobert is a better rim protector than Hibbert in his prime.

    I've never been so happy to be two games above .500 before!

    Gobert reminds me of Ratliff. He's a good player, but he's not a Dwight Howard or even a Ben Wallace.

    Just to be clear I think Gobert is pretty good. I just also think Plumlee is pretty good too. Just in a much different way.

    Gobert is whatever. Even when he's blocking shots the blazers keep attacking him. They don't fear him.

    Gobert is slow footed. It's an obvious weakness.

    Yeah better shot blocker but I think Hibbert was better at not losing position after a block, Gobert isn't the best when it comes to recovery after a block which leads to a lot of second chances.

    Some good ESPN Highlights. Even Harkless gets in on the action.

    @HCP would the players still like you if they knew how hard you dogged them this year?

    Guys cant be serious right? Gobert is a monster. Was at the game tonight, and he altered the game immensely (on the defensive end).

    We still put up 48 points in the paint. It's not like it was completely shut down.
