    Right on point. I don’t know if there is a bad choice.

    The question will be where these guys are in three years. Making first All Star game or regressing!

    Looking like a franchise guy or part of a trade for an established piece!

    not if Anthony Lamb is still on the team…sometimes I couldn’t tell if it was Lamb or Jared Dudley out there scrubbing it up

    Anthony Lamb is the best reason to draft Mobley over Green, I wouldn't be mad knowing I wont have to watch Lamb play again...

    Amazing how things change in span of weeks. Zero games played from April to July but narratives take over in interim.

    Skilled bigs take too long to develop - that's trendiest narrative on CF amirite?

    We just gonna ignore that Chris Paul and Devon Booker are on the team and are the #1 and #2 best players on that team?

    D-rock, c’mon fam. CP3 is what catapulted the Suns from fringe playoff team to top of the West, and Booker is also better than Ayton. Rockets don’t have their CP3 and Booker yet

    No, but they're not poised to win the title without Ayton.

    And, that's not even taking into account CP3 and Booker having been dinged up/missing a bit. They certainly haven't been 100% the whole time

    I'm not taking anything away from Book and CP3.

    But that should not prevent me from celebrating Ayton and his progress.

    If anything, Ayton is underrated.

    He is just as important in Suns big 3, just not the most important.

    FYI - Suns did not wait to get their Ayton. They got CP3 later.

    Just like Rockets did.

    There is not only one way to build a successful team.

    Soft spoken, humble and polite - being mistaken for weakness.

    He is actually very vocal on the court, especially on defense.

    We can debate issue over which player to take without the BS narratives and personal attacks on these kids.



    High character is a plus IMO.

    Couldn't agree more, but don't let it get to you, brother man. They're surely not going to stop, and there's still plenty of healthy discussions coming from a good place. Keep posting awesome content and drown out the trolls and cranky pants posters. Enjoy the holiday weekend, hakuna brotata.

    I think there's a 90% chance that the Rockets pick Evan Mobley. It's really weird how this site has a mob of Jalen Green fans... sharing sentiment that is pretty much confined to this website. It's a loud group though! They'll be disappointed in a few weeks.

    It's like Dwerp Howard does not exist even after all those billboards next to Htown legends,
