    As a person who wanted Green and am still happy we drafted him, Mobley looks as advertised and ahead of schedule. I am interested to see how he plays against Embiid, Joker, Davis, etc. I'm not expecting anything against those guys, but I'm intrigued to see his first real challenge.

    I'm rooting for Green, Cade, and Mobley to have amazing careers and am loving watching the early phases of their careers

    I was wrong. Mobley is better than Green.

    im sorry but that block on trae young is really impressive for a big guy, and the ability to stay with him on the perimeter makes him perfect for the modern nba.

    LOL

    Some teams have multiple 7 footers on their team.

    It's not against the law, on rebuilding team you draft the best player regardless of position.

    Its actually smart basketball.

    *Would also take DeWayne Dedmon and/or Michael Beasley over PJ Tucker*

    Scottie Barnes with another good game too. Duarte also looking good out the gate, looking like a Brogdon repeat

    Evan Mobley is a beast!
    We got Sam Bowie with short arms!

    They already had Wood, I highly doubt this team would have taken 2 bigs in the lottery and not gotten at least a guard. But what’s the point of talking about a player we don’t have anyway? Green is here why not focus on that?

    Wow, your thoughts have some validity, look at the calendar then look at the date the tread was started. Then read the title of the tread again. Take a moment to acknowledge time has passed; much like the opportunity to draft Mobley has passed. Random thought—> Somethings can’t be changed, some have the power to change things, others have the wisdom to know the difference between the two.

    If your into mental gymnastics and wondering what if, that’s okay maybe that is what the pre draft board is now.

    I like Sengun & Garuba over Mobley—> all have similar roles —> versatile bigs.

    I personally like the way the draft went for us. Remember we got both Sengun & Garuba for the cost of Mobley, too. Garuba is a special talent that we haven’t seen much of yet. Sengun is a difference maker. Mobley maybe the best of the three but he will never be on our roster, for this reason IDC. He is having a great start though.

    Time tells all anyway,

    Go Rockets!
