Guess you didn’t read it closely. I mean saying a pro after a year is better then an unknown rookie. What a revelation. Cade is easily better than Edwards coming out of college. Wasn’t even close. Someone who actually follows college on a regular basis would know that. Not the case here with you
League sources say teams continue to pepper the Pistons with offers for the no. 1 pick in hopes of selecting Cade Cunningham. As of late Wednesday night, executives around the league are still predicting that Detroit will stay put and draft Cunningham, but there is at least increased chatter about the possibility of a trade down, or an outright selection of Jalen Green. Green had an outstanding workout with Detroit last week that has, at the very least, left some front office members considering the possibilities. Still, Cunningham remains the favorite to have his name called first Thursday night.
Thor keeps falling, now all the way down to 40. You can see how difficult this is, as I've seen him in the 20 range only a couple of days ago.
that's shocking to me. factor in his fluidity for his size/length, his defense, and his age!?! sure it might take time but he is a 1st round talent imo.
Thor's a workout/combine monster, but how good a basketball player is he? Does he have it in him to translate all these physical measurables onto the hardwood?
I've never seen him play, but I think a Rockets shirt with "THOR" on the back would be cool. Especially since he wears #10, which is also a cool number if you are a football/soccer fan. That's my JT Thor draft "analysis".
I'm guggling if Troy Weaver is married... (apparently he is). I can't imagine how his fiancee (at the time) felt, about his commitment issues and when he finally proposed!
He needs time. I believe he can become a very good player in 3 years if he works hard. He has shown genuine flashes in college. His upside is better than many players expected to go ahead of him. I don't think he will fall below 35.
It's possible. If it's true, then Cade could become a Houston Rocket. I believe he will emerge as the best player out of this draft, even in the long run.
I kind of see it though...hot take, I think Cade has the most bust potential out of all three. Not as athletic as the other two, that TO rate is worrying, and if his handle can't get him past NBA defenders he basically becomes just a really nice wing to have. Nowhere close to Luka. I'm worried that too many people are looking too hard for the next Luka and I don't know if he's it and it'll be some time until we see the next Luka. I'm not saying I would cry if we draft him...I just don't think he's tiers above the other two top 3 guys. At the end of the day, Detroit isn't trading down because the Rockets are not trading up (And they are not trading out of the top 3...) and they'll go with the safe pick which is Cade.
Green excited me more, for sure. I've gotten myself pumped for Green. I'll be a little disappointed of we don't get him, honestly, but I'll be very happy either way.
That's it for me too. Green and Mobley excite me more than Cade personally. I'll be happy to have either of these guys though, they could all be all NBA players and hopefully they all will be...at least they are not going to a conference rival.
