Against inferior teams he looks good. Against the good to great teams you'll see the difference. I think people completely forget how useless he is against teams like the Celtics, Mavs, Thunder, and Sixers.

I would like an even better/bigger upgrade but all-in-all, I'll take what Goga gives us if we push the pace more with him on the court.

What’s that? I can’t hear you over the 4 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks in the first 9 minutes of the game.

So, we’re going to roll out Mo without Isaac? Okay.

That foul - if it had been a rebound it would’ve been “over the back”, so why is it not the same on offense?

The team doesn't have the personnel to do that though. On top of that his switch-ability against perimeter oriented teams is absolute trash. In a league about cross match ups he always gets eaten alive by these elite perimeter players.
