    You probably weren’t following basketball yet when people on this board were debating between Lowry and Brooks who should be our point guard of the future. Thanks for making my point how ridiculous it looks in hindsight.

    I think there’s a chance Green is 6’3 barefoot, he was actually at that in 2019

    I have a feeling the 6’6 measurement may have been at the top of his afro... lol

    Nba champion Lowry is about to be paid $25m a year at 35 years old. For good reason. Highs Brooks could never reach. I’m not here to debate that again though lol.

    It was hard for me to tell there. But here is another video where you can see Green is clearly taller than him.

    I thought we weren’t using highschool video from years ago.

    And yeah, I couldn’t tell either in the g league video. That’s the problem.

    I just started using clutch fans more frequently and I’ve noticed the pessimism on here is insane compared to Twitter/reddit

    Normally when you’re 19 year old Star rookie WANTS to be a good defender, it’s a great thing but people on here are using it against him.

    It’s wild

    You may want to learn reading comprehension. I'm in my late 30's you weird person, been following and playing basketball since the early 90's. You didn't make a single point, you waxed lyrical about your self-perceived greatness whilst making yourself look like a complete tool. How pompous do you want to be, seriously? You're so up your own ass you're wearing your sphincter as a hat.

    I hope Tilman isn’t too cheap to buy some measuring tape.

    I'm using that to show Nico has clearly gotten taller if he's the same height as Green as you claim. And his height out of high school was 6'3 like you said.

    No it's not. That's a listing from 2019, you seriously are reaching so damn hard throughout this thread.

    why did you post the video of Green vs Mannion from two years ago?

    inassuned it was for a visual size comparison but maybe I was wrong. If so though… that was dumb… post the more recent videos. Ie got your verbal text or this one… why not post the video highlights?

    That’s from when he was 16/17

    You can’t be serious. This is some kind of act, right?!!!

    In 2019 Green was young he could have been 16 then. Players still grow
