    I'm starting to think the Rockets want Green more than Cade.

    Nobody knows that aint official.

    Didnt somebody from Detroit say they like Green as much as Cade before?

    But anyway if Mobley stonewalled the Rox its all moot they dumb AF if they still take Mobley at this point.

    them #1 is Cade

    What are you basing that on? They can obviously pick Green if they want.

    Yes they can.....and there could be regrets either way. Cade has warts as well.

    I actually love this video on Jalen Green! To me it's not a hype builder. Actually ,it solidifies my Mobley stance that he should be the pick.
    I mean would you pick Jeremy Lamb or Malik Monk at #2. I'm sticking to my comps on Jaylen Green. Everything game I've watch I see Jamal Crawford on the high end, but with all the "Next Kobe" hype salemanship I hope he doesn't end up being the next Harold Miner.

    I get it he may be a Rocket which I'm personally hoping against for two reasons.

    1. He is going to need some solid vets which the Rockets don't have yet.

    2. He has a lot of work to do on both sides of the floor, and the expectations being a #2 pick may turn him into Derrick Cheivous!!! Believe me the Rockets don't want another Derrick Cheivous y'all...ever.

    Including the Rockets.

    Just as the Green hype was reaching critical magnitude, Rocket’s rumor comes out how they loooovveee Cade and want to move up 1 spot to get him.

    Good job Stone of refocusing Detroit.

    The video explicitly says that Green is a willing passer and has a good habit of keeping his head up and assessing the floor and where his teammates are. His one problem right now is timing which is something that is normal for a 19 year old and is corrected through reps.

    You're absolutely ridiculous. Did Green sleep with your wife? You sound like a high school girl that just got dumped

    Imagine someone crying like this over a valid criticism of a basketball player....

    Green fanbois are going to be worse than Lin fans.

    Green averaged 5 assists his senior year in HS and then 3 per game in the GLeague. What is the marker for people who DO pass the ball in the sport of basketball to you?

    Imagine being so obsessed over a college player that it reduces you to whining in every thread like a petulant child over a 19 year old kid.

    Mobley stans are worse than stalkers

    Green is the most proven since he did it against G league players who are head and shoulders better than 90 percent of college players.

    You crying about valid criticisms of a basketball player has nothing to do with Mobley.

    You act like Green is your boyfriend and it's weird.

    Yes, you crying about valid criticism of a basketball player is and will always be pointless, so dry your eye kiddo and stop being "that guy"
