I'm with you on Suggs vs Mobley. I'm pessimistic about Mobley becoming a true unicorn type player, but he does have the foundation for it. It just seems like any skinny big that looks like he can shoot and dribble a little gets the unicorn label these days. But to your point about late round centers, yeah it seems like most teams just want a guy thats a rebounder, lob threat, shot blocker, and doesn't get killed on switches. Shooting, handling, and playmaking from the center position is gravy. Not to mention bigs tend to take longer to develop and miss more games. Would definitely be happy if Mobley ends up being the pick though.
He says he can sing n dance, then he gets a little John Amaechi on the bed for Cade. He had to kick him out. Safe to say: Cade will not be buying a house on Montrose.
In this NBAdraft.net analysis https://www.nbadraft.net/situational-analysis-cade-cunningham/ they speak on Cade's flaw being not having enough of an edge or fire/intensity and i don't really agree with them as far as their 1-10 rating system giving him a 7 in his lack of intensity being a hinderance. That's Ben Simmons type of rating IMO.
Yep, 15-20 min of hell watching each and every selection happen to see if we get a Top 4 pick or not. Gotta love Houston sports.
In thier rating system for individual players, they have Suggs at a 100 overall rating which is tied with Cade Cunningham. 2nd best in Mobley at 97, and Green at 95 overall rating. They do mention Suggs not having as high a ceiling as the others, but checking the site out through the years, 100 rating is typically superstar level . By comparison, they had: 2020) Anthony Edwards 98 overall. Wiseman 96. Ball 94. 2019) Zion 100 rating, Ja Morant 99, RJ 96 2018) Ayton 101, Bagley 99, Luka 98, Trae 97
I had no idea what was going on last time so if it's the same, there's like no anticipation, only confusion. Can someone explain how it works? It was just random numbers, no logos, and just right off the bat, congratulations to Minnesota with the #1 pick and i had no idea what just happened.
From what I can understand: Kid: "Yo Bro, if I can say anything that's brutal......I can't wait to see you wearing a Houston Rockets jersey after draft nightttt." Cade: "You know it Brah" Kid: "Yeaaaah brooo!" (simultaneously) Kid:"I can't wait until that happens!" Cade: "I give up...I give up......Oh I GIVE UP; c'mon Silver, make it happen." (laughter) Cade: "C'mon brah.....what are we doing?" (Just do It Silver)
Don't state lotteries still have the sexy lottery girls? Don't NBA teams still have cheerleaders? I feel this is a missed opportunity...
Seeing the Hawks, Sixers, Bucks, Suns black alternate(they need a white and purple version and make them full time), all rocking modernized uniforms and logos of their retro stuff, my summer will be complete with a future star being drafted and our own Clutch City modernized retro logo and uniforms + modernized RWB late 90s alternate and another black H-Town jersey.
