Usually guys can fall depending on what scouts expect. If Green went to the G and did horribly then he'd be a late first rounder, falling fast, so those guys that go into college hyped can only fall really.
They do? I've been reading a bunch of scouting reports and I see that point barely mentioned at all. Most just mention he played in the gleague, which scouts and GM disagree with me?
Who is saying "it doesn't matter" as you just did? Apparently you think scouts and GMs all evaluate all leagues on the same playing field. It's just common sense that scouts and GMs take competition into account.
Lol, what did u say that was even worth addressing? “scouts compare across different leagues”…yeah, no sh*t then u agree with me that other top prospects would do well in the G-League
There's a big difference between taking competition into account verse evaluating purely on competition. I think many posters are falling into the latter camp.
LOL. And yet you get your panties in a wad when the G League is brought up with top prospects..... Riddle me that? Did you not read or comprehend my answer? Here it is again.....
It doesn't matter. That's how Lebron James goes #1 or Lamelo goes #3, because it doesn't matter. They are judging players based on potential, not what they can do now. I don't think scouts think that simply as "He plays well in this league that is much better so he's the better prospect for it." if they did, we'd have more players from Europe than the NCAA using this logic but that's not what happens. I don't know how GMs think about it because I doubt GMs are telling people outside of the FO anything this close to the draft as to protect their board but I've read a ton of scouting reports and most barely mention the gleague thing. They mention that he played in it and don't make a point about it being better competition.
Mobley rebounded at a mediocre rate of 20% as a center in a weak division with a soft schedule.... Would have been nice to see Mobley, with his high center gravity, go against bigger, stronger competition.
Im so ****ing ready for Jalen or Cade i might even keep my league pass. Hope they wont trade those pick for some gypsy Oladipo
Chet Holmgren is a walking stickbug at 190 pounds and probably will be a top 5 pick going into the draft next season...know why scouts won't care? Because they are predicting he'll get bigger as he grows and with an NBA regimen will get stronger all while being a good stretch big. Scouts care more that Cade is 6'8, long, has handles, has vision, and a three point shot then whatever he did in college. This is why his ast/to ratio isn't a big deal. they figure he'll be a much better player 5 years from now as his game grows and matures.
Of course it matters. There's a big difference between "it doesn't matter" and "it's part of the overall "evaluation". LOL. If you don't think Stone and the Rockets aren't taking into account the level of competition when they are trying to evaluate two very close prospects..... then I don't know what to tell you. The G League has an actual NBA 3 point line..... is that good for evaluating anything? You even argue against USC and their objectively weak strength of schedule. You and the other Mobley Mobsters are making it a bigger deal instead of just viewing it as part of the overall evaluation.
Chet is far more advanced the Mobley is offensively. And we are talking about picking between Green and Mobley at #2 and you want to just disregard G League play.....
If you want to get technical about it, sure, but overall...not really. A guy can dominate in the gleague and it still won't get him an NBA roster spot, why do you think that is? No? Scouts have been able to project 3 point shooters out of the NCAA you know? Doing this with the NCAA having a shorter 3 point line... I wouldn't care about USCs schedule, you're the only one bringing that up. All the videos and reports and you are the only person that brings up USCs schedule. I think YOU put more into strenght of competition than scouts do. If it were so important then Doncic goes #1 last year. He didn't. You keep saying we're making a big deal out of it but you are the one that brings it up and insists that it has some impact...and the one pointing out Mobley's lack of competition. When people go on about him going up against 'Grown men' they are making more of a deal of it. Because gleague play is irrelevant to who will be better in 5 years.
yeah, when grown men in the G-League gets brought up like it really means something significant when it doesn’t…if u can’t comprehend that, then sorry, that’s not my problem
"Grown men" is the new Mobley Mob snide remark. I mean when Mobley can only get 20% of total defensive rebounds and boxed out by wings and large guards, you gotta come up with something.
