Gobert is long.

I hope he becomes a competent NBA player because he's a lot of fun.

My nickname is better.

He just blocked the poo poo out of Nene.

He's had a few blocks, a couple dunks, he made a contested hook and has done a decent job rebounding. He's still getting pushed around by Splitter and Nene.

My friend, who's also from Saint-Quentin, called him gobo, so I assumed it was his official nickname

He showed a bit during the first quarter and Brasil's bigs have sort of corralled him since.

Unless you want to pay for international shipping from Slovenia. IF so, just type in slovenia basketball jersey in slovenian to google.

You can also get them from Spalding:

The Slovenian federation's website might have them too:

I honestly have no clue how you fell in love with Rivers. Like I can't think of one admirable thing about him aside from "got better from season 1 to season 2," but you just love every stupid thing he does. NBA puppy love is so confusing.

It's probably because he's bad, everyone constantly mocks him because he's bad, but he doesn't lash out and keeps working to get better.

I've been so used to seeing Davis so thin, it's kinda odd to see him look thicker. He's almost out of stick territory!

Gay has had some stupid plays, but he seems like a real good fit for this team.
