He's definitely been good this year, but I find it pretty funny that there's been multiple situations where he's made a bad read/off ball rotation and Gobert's had to shove him into where he's meant to be haha. Noticed it once or twice for Ant too.

Think it's so good for KAT and Ant to have smart vets like Gobert and Conley around to learn off

There was a play in the Warriors game when KAT was backing up and Gobert pushed him back to the perimeter bc Gobert knew Saric would get a 3. He was right, Saric immediately got the ball in that exact spot and shot a 3.

It's a blessing having a guy as high IQ as Rudy on defense. Gobert said last year that he thought KAT is a great defender but just isn't in the right places sometimes. I see Gobert talking to KAT on the sidelines point out spots on the floor often this season. That guidance is invaluable

I laughed out loud, it was my favorite part of the game.
