Someone on the nets bench because he’ll be coming off the bench

this is the 2nd unit the nets have in there...they have 3 bench guys in.

This argument made sense before we drafted a big, now it doesn't hold much weight because to maximize Obi's potential we will need a 5 that can shoot. Don't be shocked if we're linked to Mobley if we don't have the top 2 picks for Cade or Suggs.

I feel like Mobley is overrated. What’s your thoughts on him?

I haven't watched enough of him yet, but what I've seen is that he has some intriguing skills and he dunks virtually everything if he's close to the rim. I don't like how skinny he is, and it's not like he has a frame like AD or Wiseman where you can just see them packing on weight cause of their wide shoulders.

I'd expect any team drafting to use him as a PF like Jarren Jackson, until he has some more weight to play C.

He doesn't look any skinner than Mitch did as a prospect :dontknow:

I take Mobley over Wiseman 10 times out of 10. Much more mobile, with legit potential on the defensive end, can shoot from outside, great passer. He'll need to fill out like Mitch has, but he looks like what Mitch becomes in our dreams + a high-end passing game

I feel the complete opposite lol. I think i rather have Wiseman all day. I don’t see Mobley being a guy who can get you buckets or a first/2nd option type guy. Seems like an Ibaka type player to me. Role player vibes

Mitch has wider shoulders and was 222lbs in high school, Mobley is pretty narrow and is only 210lbs right now.

Had Klay been healthy, Warriors would've been interesting.

Too bad his injury wasn't preventable.... or was it?

I guess Achilles’ tears aren’t career changers anymore. Durant and Wall both look good as new. Up until recently Dominique was the only guy that looked the same after that injury. Modern medicine >>>

Obi is going to have to guard Giannis, Siakam, Simmons, TJ Warren, KD, Tatum and that's just in our conference :lol:
