    Everybody wanting to draft Mobley cus of Giannis needs to remember how bad Ayton was today....

    If we draft Mobley hopefully he turns out to be like a GA/AD. I don't see that type of fire in him like I do with Green though

    I'm getting a scared vibe from Green Gang all of a sudden.

    Stand by your man boys!

    No need to tear down the other guy if your guy is the BEST!

    Weird thing to say after posting a pic of a Giannis block with a very specific comment.

    Giannis and Mobley are not close to similar players

    Thats like saying we should draft green because of Chris Paul

    I was just watching Giannis rookie year videos earlier today. He was definitely more fluid as a wing player compared to Mobley’s more plodding style.

    But Mobleys could work I guess … ESPECIALLY if he can work on that shot. With the shot he won’t need to be quite as quick twitch athletic as Giannis is.

    This is the dumbest kneejerk **** I have ever heard, I guess after every championship you draft the position of the FMVP right? How does that even make any sense.

    I guess you should draft SF last year because Lebron, try to draft a Kawhi clone in 2019, and Durant and Curry Clones from 2017, 2018.

    Already too late, Green has a promise from Rockets as he is not working out for anyone else besides Pistons and Rockets. Hope he turns out to be the right pick wish him and the Rockets the best.

    That’s literally what teams have been doing. Drafting tall players. Why do you think Cade is going #1? If he were 6’5 and not 6’8 he wouldn’t even be in the top 3

    Mobley isn't that similar to Giannis, but more Giannis than he is Ayton. Ayton never had inside/outside potential on both ends like Mobley.

    Probably wouldn't get drafted, or even picked up for a summer league team

    6'5? Fckin manlet would need a stool to reach his upper cabinets

    Cade is a no-hops below-Lottery-average athlete and at 6'5" would project for half of his "set shots" to be rejected into the rafters.
