Jalen Green should be the pick

What a difference two weeks made. Cade is quickly becoming yesterdays news.

 

I think the answer is simple, find out who spends the most time in the gym and draft that person.

 

The greatest rocket ever has spoken.

 

I think Green will be the number one pick.

It's just so rare that you have a player who is 19 years old that combines the following

1. Ridiculous athleticism
2. Ridiculous determination and work ethic
3. Strong outside shooting
4. Good handle

Those are the ingredients that come so rare - a Kobe, a Lebron, a KG. I mean Cade doesn't have that and neither does Mobley. Most players in the league don't have those 4 ingredients.

Green is going to be picked number 1 unless Detroit is dumb.

 

I'm confident Stone and the boys will do their due diligence when looking into these guys. We only have what limited information is available to us whereas these guys have all the tape and knowledge that's out there. If Mobley is truly the superior player then we should be hearing his name on draft night. I lean Green, but I'm not going to be the least bit upset if we end up with Evan. And there's always the chance Detroit does something crazy.

 

Starting 4 people...it’s a bold move Cotton let’s see if it pays off!!!

 

Jalen Green.

 

@tinman

 

If anyone leanin away from JG is wondering how quick of a study and how self critical he is..mind you it’s only half a year and 15 games..the growth is uncanny

And then the one posted in the past days
(Apologies if posted together in thread)

 

#2 is what impresses me the most

 

Also, over the next week or two I’ll try to put together all JG possessions (offense/defense) from game 1-15 to reiterate my take on the dichotomy of progression vs projection in JGs arc

 

The 5th guy is unknown, it could be Tate, it could be House, hell it could be EGo.

Silas is a softie so it all depends on who's voice is loudest in his ear.

 

The most successful teams draft the best player.

But you do you.

 

It's just the campaign machine, Cade is still going #1.

Don't get fooled by all the noise.

 

If House is here he best be willing to give up #4 to either Mobley or Green,

 

There's real noise that the Pistons are interested in Green, but yeah, I'd be shocked if they don't take Cade. Will be surprised if they trade down with the Cavs, too

 

The Athletic is saying Pistons want Mobley, not Green.

Sam Vecenie repeated this in latest podcast.

Like I said, dont believe the campaign machines - all smoke and mirrors.

 

Because he is such an unselfish biatch amirite?

 

Interesting. Would make sense though considering they already have Killian Hayes. I'm actually curious what the Cavs do. If Cavs get Mobley, they may trade Allen. I also keep seeing Sexton could get traded, so I have no clue

 

If Rockets draft Green, then CF can hope TWO young players can achieve these things.

Neither Porter or Green get to FT line enough nor pull down enough boards.

Or play consistent sticky defense. I'd settle for smarter D.
