We'll see whose right in a few years. Remember my takes on Jayson Tatum and Markelle Fultz were considered crazy in 2017. Now in 2021 its become self evident.

The gap between Jalen Green and Cade Cunningham in 4 years will be similarly wide.

You acting like this some wild take. Most people knew Tatum was the best player in that draft

He may very well end up being better than Suggs but your reasoning is wrong and ridiculous and makes it clear you haven't actually watched the dude play or you have some weird definition of 'swag'. Dude is hypercompetive and extremely confident. Also I always find it funny when cats who watch a few highlights act like folks that have scouted these guys since their sophomore years in HS have no idea what they're talking about because a guy is rated 1 spot higher than you think he should be lol
It was clearly a post made in jest with the intention of mocking swag hence why no one but you took it serious. :mjlol:

Cade's a 6'8 point forward who's a legit 3-level scorer, so he is gonna be the consensus #1 overall (especially in the wake of all this Luka and LaMelo hype) but this kid is right behind him; don't let y'alls opinion of Swag and his unorthodox player "evaluation" methods (:russ:) fool y'all. 19 years old and not even 180 lbs soaking wet yet he had no problems making grown ass professional ball players look slow and lost on defense. Like LaMelo was getting crazy props just for shooting ~30% on a losing team in Australia; Jalen Green in the wake of all the corona craziness averaged 18 PPG on good efficiency and led his team to the G-League playoffs with a winning record. Dropped 30 against the #1 seeded 905 Raptors in his final game for Ignite :mindblown: Even if he's not the #1 overall prospect I think he is by far the most bust-proof of everyone in this draft; as good as they look there's no 100% guarantee guys like Cade overcome their athletic deficiencies against NBA competition or the rawer upside picks like Mobley and Kuminga develop the way you hope they do. But I have no doubt whatsoever that this kid will be blowing by defenders and getting buckets the second he hits the league; no way the speed, body control, and shot making doesn't translate. And his upside if he learns how to run an NBA offense is sky high... :wow: He'd look damn good next to that boy Zion too of course :mjgrin::blessed:

:whoo: looking like a young Michael Jordan circa 1982

Its laughable to me that Cade Cunningham is projected to go ahead of him. This will be the equivalent of taking Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan in 1984.

Jalen Green is the best hope for the NBA becoming watchable once again.

@ :27 seconds literally looked like Jordan :whoo:

:yeshrug: Aint nothing in that post clearly sarcastic or satire. May want to up your writing skills :yeshrug:

considering several people mentionned swag judging players by looks and swag, maybe you need to just admit you tried to play coli scout and failed.
