    Suggs easy. Dudes a winner. Can't teach mentality and he has that in spades over his peers.

    If the rumors that Mobley struggles with motivation are true, I'd rather pick anyone than him.

    Jalen Green is my favorite right now, our backcourt would be sorted.

    Thread should be titled "which Jalen?"

    Green or Suggs for me....

    Suggs has some of that intangibles that elevates a team like Trae and Ja. He feels like the safer pick.

    Green more than held his own against superior competition and proved he can score anywhere.

    That’s not what Mobley is at all

    If you had asked me a week ago, I would have said Mobley. But the more I've thought about it, the more I lean Green. I'm just so ****ing pumped to be having this debate at all right now. We earned this after this garbage season, fellas! Mobley or Green? Who cares? We're getting a damn good basketball player either way!

    I have few doubts that Jalen Green will be a star. Mobley will be a very good winning player, but has that superstar mindset to be a #1 guy?
    Give me Jalen Green.

    If you draft Mobley then you trade Wood. Twin Towers thing is not coming back. They would get eaten up on drives to the basket.

    For the record I’m ok with swapping out Wood for Mobley, but don’t think playing them together is a good idea.

    I am much more interested in a 17 win season then in accelerating our rebuild in order to be mediocre for years on end, no thanks

    I’m more interested in Green at this point but I can be convinced about any of these guys.

    I would be cool with that depending on the return for Wood.

    Hahaha the okc subreddit is full of F Houston style posts. They are just happy we didn't get #1. Do we have more pick swaps?
