They’re pros at the end of the day. If that’s terrible then how would you describe the college competition? :ohhh:
According to some Coli posters 6’3 coaches sons whose gonna be an insurance salesman dribbling around 15 second then passing around perimeter only to brick a contested shot >>>Pro players

G league competition was terrible
That’s not true. I saw Jalen go up against Jermey Lin, Alize Johnson, and KPJ this year. Second game Alize played with the Nets he drops a 20-20 game. KPJ goes to the Rockets and drops a 50 piece. Who in college do you think could go to the NBA today and have comparable games? The g league competition is by far better than college

They think because the games are competitive that the competition is better. Not to mention g-league teams are much more balanced as opposed to colleges where some teams have 3-4 5 stars on 1 roster. College basketball is so garbage, there’s a reason why halftime scores be like 21-17. Dudes like Luke Garza are top 3 players in college :mjlol:

Low motor, not very athletic, doesn’t seem particularly hungry which is the case for a lot of players who have been on a similar path.

He’s a reclass, #1 ranking for a few years in high school, dominated due to his size, went to Monteverde; sounds a lot like Ben Simmons :sas1:

He should be a fine NBA player but he’s not a future superstar


Just answering the OP :yeshrug:
:mjlol: @ this exchange

Ingram ended up better than Simmons, Tatum ended up better than fultz, trae and Luka are better than ayton bagley. Top pick doesn’t guarantee best player

no but it increases your odds. Either way I’d rather move up than down. And the higher the pick the higher the value to other teams.

I think Green is gonna officially measure out as
6.5+ without shoes with a 6'8 wingspan and the NBA insiders gonna go nuts.

People gotta remember, Green just turned 19 four months ago :wow:. Breh might still be growing and he's definitely gonna fill out.

Regardless, these dudes go one and two. Congrats Det & Hou :salute:

I just named 3 that came to mind. Any player I named on any gleague roster would be better than the average college player. Idk how this is arguable
I don’t know how you can attempt to argue that Better basketball is being played in the g league then big time college ball.

And you named dropped Jeremy lin

I was never as high on Cade as others were,i dont see a generational talent....I see a good to great player but a guy who could disappoint in the pros.

I have said for months i dont see him as a a PG in the NBA.Hes not quick enough.
