    Taking Green at 2 isn’t any kind of reach so possibly not the right time to pull out the Tillman just likes money card. There will be ample opportunity for that later I’m sure.

    No Tilman's goal is to clearly remain broke so the Tilman memes on this forum can continue.

    If he’s teaching Green how to make money. That’s a owner to player connection we never seen before. Green can learn how to invest from tilman that would be cool

    I want the Rockets to take Green, to make Tilman money

    Yeah, let's go with that. Nothing to do with basketball.

    It's amazing how I apparently live rent free in the minds of randoms I've never even heard of or to my knowledge ever interacted with over threads I had nothing to do with.

    ...followed by 500 words of a Green v Mobley thread

    Green is the money pick, and he also doesn’t move the needle as much as Mobley in terms of improving you as much right away, but he is also a spectacular talent, so it’s not JUST about the money. We would be lucky as hell to have Jalen Green.

    Does Tilman want the Rockets to win just so he can make money in ticket sales?

    OP is onto something.

    Instagram followers

    Green : 1.4m
    Cunningham : 284k
    Mobley : 69k

    When it comes to fan following and marketability Green is in a class of his own. Mobley is going to contribute more to winning, but he’s not taking this team to the playoffs next year or anytime soon. Green starts generating revenue from day 1. Especially after losing the China market, the Philippine market can make up for some of that.

    Go Tilman! Go Green!

    "He doesn't play defense and doesn't contribute to winning".

    Saying that about a 19 year old who hasn't played a day in the NBA. Absolutely hilarious.

    How do you know Mobley will contribute more to winning?

    Even Anthony Davis didn't contribute much to winning until he had Lebron.

    it's as simple as this, If the rockets continue to be one of the worst teams in the league there will be little to no money to be made, So it doesn't matter whether its Green or not. You already see how desperate the rockets are with some of these ticket sales for the upcoming year. They had to do a promo for 10 tix for $100 if the rockets got a top 4 pick lol

    It would appear that this is a very plausible possibility. Tilman needs to get his credit scores back up. BEHOLD!

    Settle down Patrick.

    On another note, instead of Green Gang, wouldn't Gang Green be better?

    Don't know about anyone else here, but it really isn't that fun to watch Portland as a team. Lillard has his moments, but I don't wait for any Portland game just to watch Lillard.

    Green only needs 4 letterings (two E letterings), Mobley needs 6 different letterings. It cost less to make a Green jersey, so that is the best financial choice to max profit.
