How long before the Kevin Porter Jr. and Jalen Green duo take over the NBA?

Porter is not a PG. They're not set at the one as you say :mjlol:


So what's their plan moving forward? I'm assuming it's that tandem of those two. If not then they worse off than I thought. Who are next year's targets in the draft that will make them a more complete team?

And for clarification I didn't say pg. I said the one and two. Pg might not necessarily be a position in some teams with how they want to organize them

Evans father Eric mobley is an assistant coach in usc where kpj was suspended for off court reasons. Might be some bad blood there

Which is an insane reason to pass up on Mobley as KPJ's problems are self-inflicted. It does explain though why he was so insistent on them taking Green instead and got Houston fans in on it as well.

There are terrible takes then there is this. These kids ain't even play a month into the season with basically a brand new team, and a terrible coach.
Even with Mobley they might have won 2 more games so far and be a early draft team.:russ:

Mobley is going to be the best player in the draft in 5 years and would be an immediate upgrade over Christian Wood :mjlol:

I'm just old enough to know a rookie player on a just rebuilding team ain't gonna get taken to the promised land off the bat.
But yeah, I'm delusional.

I never said that he would take them to the promise land off the bat though :dwillhuh:

I specifically said that Mobley was going to be the best player in the draft 5 years from now, which a lot of people say as well. The Green/Porter Jr backcourt is an issue because they are trying to make Porter Jr into something that he isn't, which is a PG.

I think the Rockets are gonna have to let Sengun get his Jokic on and put more off ball movement into the offense. It doesn't matter if Green and KPJ are creating everything off the dribble or not as long as they are effective and more efficient that should be the goal.
