    Too soon.

    Wait for at least 2-3 years after the draft for these kind of threads.

    At this point I’m happy with picking either or. We literally can’t go wrong with the number 2 pick. I’m so cool with either or I kind of want to pull a trade like Atl did with the Mavs for luka and get another FRP.


    What if we did Wall and 2 pick for Cleveland number 3 pick…

    I been going back and forth between Green and Mobley. Every time Green seem to win. Now I'm putting Suggs in the mix. It's going to be fun until draft day.

    Duh.

    Anyway.

    Anyone else seeing these crazy deals from the ticket sales dept???

    $10 tix, free jerseys, free autographed balls

    Sad. What has Tillman done?

    Hope this draft works out. Someone made the guess the the Rox front office will draft Mobley pushing the Rockets Big Man Narrative like they did Dwight.

    *** I hope not.

    I can't decide who I want more. Frankly I want Both Green and Mobley... Will Cleveland gift us the pick for some future consideration.....lol

    I can see very strong pros for either guys. Mobley turning into an Anthony Davis is so intriguing. But at the same time Green can be a generational player, who was seen coming out of high school as a superior player than Cade Cunningham. Green didn't hurt himself in the G-League, some will say he actually played against better talent than had he been in College. Cade's height at point guard has many scouts and fans projecting a Magic Johnson type guy ---- but Magic was a spectacle of a passer beyond being a tall point guard.

    I won't be disappointed with either Mobley or Green. But Suggs isn't a chump either, and if he is Jason Kidd lite, a point guard for the next decade and a half maybe exactly what the doctor ordered - but he's gonna have to impress the tar out of the Rockets since KPJ looks like he'd of been a lottery pick in this draft too....

    KPJ, Wood, Tate make the #2 selection all that more exciting. If the Rockets get it right, this might be the faster rebuild, yet if they botch it, it's going to take a while....

    It's tough. We can't see the future. I don't know if Mobley can turn into AD. AD was way better player in NCAA. I would be happy if Mobley can turn into taller version of Chris Bosh. Green looks like could be better offensive Zach Lavine. If we're going to draft the best player available, it would be most likely be Green. If we ignore Tilman (who said he don't want more than 2 years of losing season), I would actually take the risk on Mobley. It's easier to find scoring guard than a 7 footer with his skill. I know Mobley only show flashes and still inconsistent with his shots and handling the ball. That's why he is a prospect. Green would be a lower risk pick.

    A lot of people will be wrong, we have been lucky to get the #2 pick, now we need a little more luck in choosing the right guy. I am for either Jalen. Whatever happens, there is likely a bust in the top 4 picks.

    The Bigs are better in the 2022 draft. IMHO

    Mobley would be the 3rd or 4th best big in the 2022 draft.
