    Its way to early to tell, but it will interesting to come back to this thread in 5 years to see who was right. Green seems to have tunnel vision sometimes, but as he gets stronger hopefully he becomes a better finisher. I can see him as 25pts/gm scorer. Sengun has some post moves plus his passing is outstanding I can see him as Jokic type player which I think makes him more valuable.

    Sengun is better now, but Green will be better in 5 years. Sengun will still be an excellent player, so that's not to say he won't be good or anything.

    If I'm wrong then I'll be wrong on the first page of a bump worthy thread. So, that's how I feel about that.

    Depends on what “better” means. Alp will be the better all around player. Defense, facilitating, scoring. He can just do more on the floor. Green will or should be the better scorer. Sprinkle in some playmaking and you have a nice duo

    Hopefully, 5 years from now they’ll both be awesome and on the way to becoming Rockets legends!

    Sengun will find the cure for cancer before Green does. thus the choice is clear

    I don't know. And that's what excites me. These two guys could carry the franchise together.

    In 5 years we'll have people saying "Green is only 24, it's not fair to judge him yet" and Sengun will be a perennial all star.

    Batman and Robin. Just depends. They’ll both be Allstars on the verge of winning a ring.

    I think it's Sengun but Green definitely has a higher ceiling. He has athleticism you can't teach so if he picks up the same skill level he'd end up a better player. With limited athleticism and unspectacular measurables, you'd think Sengun's peak would be capped somewhat but there's just something about him that makes me think that he can develop some still unknown facet that'll make him special. I just really love my high IQ players.

    Will both still be on the team? 5 years means both would have to be re-signed in RFA. Good chance Tilman says a no no no


    That's right fellas, prepare yourselves for Tilman to run away whatever next great young talent we get, just like the rest of the clown show organizations.

    The Green Sengun Experience is coming. They'll be the next Tracy & Yao.

    I actually think it's going to be very close with both of them being All Stars.

    Green's ceiling is higher than Sengun's but it is not guaranteed that Green will reach his ceiling. I am betting on Green though, so I voted Green. I think Sengun is a lock to be an very solid NBA player.

    Sengun is already a very solid NBA player right now, if not better.

    He already does a lot of good things on the court, he's still very raw though. He has plenty of room to improve.
