Similar to Ayton and Wiseman (who are drafted high just to be placed in a role player position)
Fans expect Mobley to improve to the “next level or he’s a bust”.
Pretty sure Mobley will just average 10 FGAs due to his chucking guards and while fans questioning why he’s averaging just 13/8/2.
He’s a defensive talent, but fans expect him to be like a dominant big of some sort to help the Cavs.
Luckily, there is no pressure on a small market team.
Yea but what about Odd Mobley.
well just take my upvote 😅.
So is he in trouble or is there no pressure
Mobley was in trouble the second Bill Simmons started pumping him as the next Tim Duncan.
Stupid post. Add you to the blocked list.
Whoever said there were no stupid questions never visited r/nba
This is an insanely casual take. Mobley is a fantastic defender, trying to compare him to Ayton and Wiseman is straight up goofy. Comparing Wiseman to either of those guys also makes no sense. No one is expecting him to be a #1 option on offense or anything like that. He’s primed to make a leap because he’s good on both ends of the court, and his defense in particular as a big has a huge impact on the game.
“primed to make a leap” to what?? He’ll still average the same and casuals doesn’t see his value, they know he’s a defensive guy while there is pressure to make the “leap”
HAHAHAHAHAHA Mobley is the reason we are so good defensively.
Horrible take. Dude is an elite defender in the paint and the perimeter and guards 1-5.
Did I say he’s Olynyk?
Everybody expects him to “make the leap” this year while he cant on 8 shots a game.
He took 12 a game in his for 2 seasons. And improved his scoring and % each year. Why’s he getting 4 less shots a game in year 3?
