    That comp list was a bit odd for him since Lamelo was the only one with a similar body type.

    It's just a statistical comparison. They state the methodology used. If you start looking at height and weight, you'll start restricting yourself to hardly any players for some of the comparisons at which point, what's the point?

    Lamlelo is listed a whopping 40 pounds lighter than Cade too


    Cade's got some sand in his pants at 220

    Oladipo and Brogdon seem like good comps

    I pray that Green doesn't turn out like J.R. Smith.

    Jalen won't end like J.R. smith. Their characters are as different as can be.

    This is a rare draft where every team in the top 4 is pretty happy with their pick.

    Let us open up the joke and not a wound whose name is Royce.

    He is doing politics right now.

    I have no clue why Wagner is ahead of Green. Green is outscoring Wagner by a wide margin on higher efficiency the last 10 games.

    Nice, I can see him overtaking Wagner for 4th by the end of the season.

    Pretty simple.

    Wagner did not have a bad start, he did not suffer a hammy injury and rested 15 games (30 games combined)

    He was 2nd or 3rd rank once or twice, has been consistent all season, rebounds, assists, steals etc.

    Those things matter and the fact that there were only 25 games left after the All Star Break. Not enough time to make up any ground.

    I think Green can finish up the season 3rd even. Barnes is a tough cookie.

    It seems extremely likely.

    Green was behind Herb Jones a few weeks back. Which is really odd!! No doubt Herb has been a nice surprise, but he was still 8.5ppg on the season or so (Green was 15ish at the time).

    Rookie of the year ladder is a joke anyway. Lamelo was leading last year then got injured, they thought he was out for the year so he dropped. Then Ant had his jump in stats and was 1st. Lamelo came back for like 5 games and suddenly he was #1 again. As if the 5 games changed anything

    He won't win ROY, but Rookie 1st team would be a great goal for him this season
