That's still a perennial all-star but not a #1 and probably not an elite #2 either, still a HOF caliber player. The best players in the league couple elite skill with overwhelming physical tools. That's what makes Jokic/Embiid/Giannis/AD/Lebron/Kawhi so good. Mobley is tall and has elite mobility but his frame is small and he has high hips that up his center of gravity. I'd be very surprised if he reaches Duncan/KG/peak AD level impact.

Bosh with elite defense to my eye. Which is a hell of a player if you ask me.

Plus better physical frame. A rich man's Bosh is a pretty special player, could become a borderline superstar or peak AD levels.

He was AD-Towns level productive at USC. I think personality-wise he's closer to Bosh, but his ability to process the game is way faster. Bosh needed 20 seconds of every shot clock to make a decision. When he got to Miami they were like **** that just learn to shoot 3s and play some defense.

AD is a bulky guy with a very solid frame. Mobley is more thin and wiry so I can see why Bosh's name comes up quite a bit. A KG/Bosh mash-up is probably the best comparison.

Mobley damn weak, Drummond bullied him yesterday, hell Barnes did a much better job covering Drummond than Mobley. Mobley rail thin frame will always be his Achilles, much will depend on how much bigger and stronger in he can get without sacrificing his quickness.

Really glowing review of both Barnes and the franchise. The Raptors might not get a lot of respect in the media but the players around the league are certainly noticing what's going on north of the border.

Gonna be a super close finish between Scottie and Mobley. Nice to see Zach go with Scottie in the end since he was firmly in Mobley camp for most of the yr.
