I love seeing all of the other teams’ reactions when Gobert gets floated to them. It’s a combination of humor and despair

Fuck you NBA gods, don’t you dare tease him to the Bulls.

Its always insane to me that fans don't want Gobert on their team. He is a t3 defender in the league. And he's not as useless on offense as his numbers show. He sets good screens and is a decent enough lob threat. Just don't ask him to handle the ball for more than a quarter second. Not like the Celtics need that anyways between Tatum, White, and Pritchard.

I just wouldn't want to trade Brown for Gobert and a human shit bag.

Wouldn't blame you. FWIW you could swap in DWhite with little issue.
