    Such Rubbish!!!!!!!!!!! Brooks is largely useless, not in my book ! Brooks is one of the special discoveries of last season, he is a great 3 point shooter! Y

    Respectfully, I don't follow your point. I assumed the poster was speaking on Lou William's NBA career, not college career. How is using hindsight the wrong approach? Should I pretend I'm in 2006 and use foresight? That seems odd if we have 15 years of information at our disposal.

    I just looked over the 2005 draft and I would take Lou 8th in a redraft. Not sure how that disproves that sometimes that there are busts, even at #1. Most recently Bennett and even more recently Fultz. Had the poster compared Fultz to Lou Williams a few years ago even then would have got blasted the same way he did, and half my point was that there is no need to call someone's opinion moronic based on the 0 NBA data we have on Green.

    LOL, cry more.

    The SBnation board was all but banned itself wasn't it? No real loss.

    The tantrums about ancient history to deflect from a conversation about a laughably hyped prospect who was mediocre in the G league is pretty transparent. I'm not going to go into what happened in that incident years ago other than to say that it's being misrepresented intentionally by those desperate to derail the conversation. If only more of these low caliber posters had decided to leave years ago, we'd all be better off for it.

    Give it a little bit, the Green fans will be bad enough to have us missing the Lin fans.

    Green was far from a mediocre scorer in the g league. Did Jalen Green take your girl?

    I was in it before but then I couldn't find it again when I got a new phone and I deleted my fb and lost contact. I rarely popped in though, so its okay.

    Steph Curry for one.

    Lebron James for another.

    And of course, Luka.

    He was on par with Kenyon Martin Jr.

    Not terrible, but nothing special given the very low level of competition. To compare, a washed up Jeremy Lin was a better scorer and he hasn't been good enough to sniff an NBA contract in years.

    Less than 20 points per game in the G league typically translates to 10 or fewer points per game in the NBA

    I’m sure you’ll be banned again eventually. You are just that special of an individual. Congrats I guess to that genetic susceptibility.

    Not off the top of my head, no, but I wanted to leave room for exceptions if they exist.

    GLeaguers who have actually faced NBA competition typically do pretty well. Give Jalen a month in the NBA and he'll go back to the G looking like Mike J.
