Reasons Why Pistons SHOULDN'T draft Cade Cunningham?

[wire28]

Hey, maybe I was wrong.

Cade seems to be what Detroit needs and he took a big leap in that year off. Has a better jumpshot and handles

Waiting to see what Jalen Green does this year still.

We got more explosive tape of who he is doing than what he is doing lately.

No his jumpshot was streaky before. Now he got a nice midrange and can hit the 3s. That’s a game changer for someone his size

Logic would tell anyone that an injured left shin, bad enough that would shut down a player, would affect anyones shooting

Yeah dudes just fell in love with a kid that jumps eye with curly hair

Jalen in year three still has the iq of Hamido Diallo

 

[Hawala Man]

If he stay healthy he will easily average 23/5/5 the skills/talent can't questioned its the remaining healthy to play 65+games a season for him.

 

[Piff Perkins]

I like his leadership. I don’t think he cares whether he’s the one balling every night or not as long as the team wins/plays well.

I’m commenting on watching Cade during his rookie year. He was healthy and his jumpshot was streaky.

He was just taking a lot of shots and had a green light not unlike Jalen green

This year so far he seems more efficient and is choosing his spots kinda like KD does

He’s always been like that too.

His lobs to Jalen Duren are gonna be fun this year.

I want to see him get to the FT line more or it will hard cap his ceiling.

7 attempts last game did you watch?

1 game out of an 82 game season. He had 2 attempts in the previous 2 games. Not saying he can't get there but its by far his biggest flaw as a scorer right now.

Well he’s getting to the rim you can only get calls if the referee gives it agreed? Last game he finally got more calls.

He wasn’t efficient because he played with a shin injury from what it sounds like sin high school.

Got the same surgery bam got. He looks like college Cade again. Always had high iq for his age, great size, isn’t the fastest but can still get down hill, added legit muscle and is 230 now. Elite vision and the only thing left is to tighten his handle which he should do in a few years.

Jalen green really tricked you with some random high scoring games. He’s a bad defender, his decision making is the same as it was in high school, and you just thought he was cute that’s why you dikk rode.

He had a habit of trying to go around contact and make shots using difficult angles. Hopefully he seeks contact out more this season.

No I think the general consensus is that green is good just based off highlights and what other nba vets have said.

This isn’t an argument against one or the other

Two completely different types of players in two different teams/situations
