#5 Net and #13 Offense might be even better if it weren't for Randle's acts of basketball terrorism to start the season, 4 fucking back to backs out of 12 games, Brunson not being able to make anything from 2 despite slinging it from 3 and the line, and RJ having his best start to a season only to miss time for migraines and knee soreness. Of course every team has their excuses, just hoping ours start to clear up as the season goes on.

People haven't watched a lot of our games yet, but Mitchell Robinson absolutely deserves an All Defense team if he keeps it up this year. All the metrics point to him and Gobert as the two most impactful centers defensively. When you throw in defense and offense of course guys like Bam are better, but Mitch's offensive rebounding has been insane so far. For his minutes and games played there's no one better, Gobert is a full 2 ORebounds a game behind him.

Toronto: fanbase

Celtics: surprisingly decent fanbase, hate the city

Bulls: just blow the shit up already why the fuck did you extend Vucevic

Clippers: Harden

For a player that has historically been especially bad to start every season he's played in his career, Rowan is cooking rn

23/3/3 on 49/50/85 shooting

Too many people wrote him off as a 23 year old. Don't know if the 3 point shooting will stay this hot but he looks good out there and is playing good defense

He looked like a 19 year old out there, playing with adults. I know he's been ice cold and said the Garden looked smaller than he expected, but maybe he didn't expect the crowd to be like that either. It's not a big deal, he has like 15+ years of basketball ahead of him.

The shooting wasn't there, but he still got some of those easy buckets where they just kind of throw it in the air near him and he figures it out. It's basketball malpractice to have him out there with no point guard on the roster.

Mitch is gangly and has a strong base. He's anchoring arguably the best defense in the NBA right now.

#2 Defensive Rating

#1 in Opponent 2nd Chance Points, a full 2 points better than the 2nd best team in this category.

#3 in Opponent Points off TOV

#1 in Defensive Rebounding %

#4 in Opponent Points in the Paint, essentially tied with Minnesota for 3rd.

#2 in Offensive Rebounding. Mitchell Robinson alone as a player is #1 in Offensive Rebounding with 6.3 a game. He's a full 2 offensive rebounds a game above the #2 player.

Still early in the season and a lot of the individual stats point to Gobert having a great season, but Mitch has been underrated.
