    All we need is that he's a "grinder" and "blue collar type" and they can hit all the buzzwords.

    He definitely wins the personality contest if that’s what we’re talking about. I just hope it translates into championships for Houston

    Uhh ...

    Cade went 1 and does just about everything on OFF while holding his own DEF
    Barnes 4 while bringing All-NBA defensive potential
    Jalen Johnson is still on the board and does same thing with BEAST build and explosive athleticism

    At best, he's easily the 4th-best 6'8" playmaker available tonight
