    Exactly what I was going to post it seems he is processing and anticipating the speed much better -- time will tell but a good sign.

    Yea the min the spunk guzzler praises wood out of any rocket players to sht on green.
    U know where he stand on if he's happy if Green does well or not.

    Imagine praising wood right after he personally revived boogie of the past so he can take a dump on us at the tune of 31 pts

    Green is going to be a solid starter for years to come, at worst the 3rd option on a playoff team/contender. His recent improvement is very hopeful.

    Green is starting to do well. Wood is better than (the current) Green. I am happy for Green. I laugh at the hilarious bad takes by his nutriders.

    I know it’s hard to process for some of you slower ones out there, but all these things can be true at the same time.

    they’re about to start calling him feminine and talking about his tattoos and nails again…if the on-court stuff ain’t working, pivot and start talking about off-court things

    This is good general advice regarding most NBA discussions. If people actually did this the conversations on this site would be worth having.

    Fact is, no one watches every single game and there's great insight from Giddey fans, Mobley fans, Cade fans, etc that is welcomed if people could put their guard down a bit. This rookie class looks like one of the better ones in a while and we'd all be better to enjoy it all instead of fighting over dumb ****.

    Lol that poster is literally using another rookie to sht on green.

    Giddey Is more impactful to the offense. While green puts up empty calorie points

    Solid game from Green. Seemed like he had more usage and threw a lot of nice passes to Wood for easy points.

    Also liked seeing the mid range tonight.

    He’s still not being as aggressive as he should be. Needs more time to improve his decision making and to watch film and learn to come to the middle of the floor on transition.

    All in all he’s progressing right as he should be. Looks just fine.

    No? You’re not ready to offer any misquoted Ghandi quotes to support your positions?

    There's creating vertical space (height or jumping) and theres creating horizontal space. Both are elite qualities to have in the NBA.

    Green: Performing pretty well in the NBA as a teenager.

    The fact that Green developed a fadeaway and pull up midrange shot pretty much out of nowhere in the last 2 weeks is a very positive sign
