NYRaider Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 1 hour ago, Troy Brown said: Can't imagine the Thunder would want to do that The Cleveland Cavaliers have shown more willingness to move out of the top-3 than either the Detroit Pistons or Houston Rockets. The Cavaliers are further along in their hopes of competing for a playoff spot than either the Pistons or Rockets. If the Oklahoma City Thunder are able to move up, the Cavaliers are the most likely trade partner. The question is whether the Thunder would agree to send Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in a package for No. 3. “I’d personally stay where I’m at and take Evan Mobley or Jalen Green,” one GM said. “As much as I love Shai, he’s not quite at the same level those guys are and the Cavs really need a star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexton’s coming off of a 24 ppg season and is 22 years old. Plus the difference between Evan Mobley and a prospect like James Bouknight is massive. I think a lot of teams would take Mobley over SGA.

NYRaider Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Quote Jalen Green: “I feel like I’m the best player in my class,” he says. “There’s a lot of talk about [consensus number one pick] Cade Cunningham and other people…but I’m the best player. And I feel like nobody can do what I do. I show up every time the lights come on. Whether it’s some weak players or the top in the country.” Shots fired. @Sllim Pickens @Texansfan713 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re really different players. I think it just depends on what you need. I definitely feel that Cade makes the players around him better Moreso than Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cade had a negative assist/to ratio and only averaged 0.8 more assists than Jalen in the Big 12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the top shooter on the team was like 33% from 3 or some garbage like that. Hard to get assists when your teammates can’t make shots.

So you’ve watched Cade play, presumably several times and came away with the opinion he’s a poor passer with low basketball IQ ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a poor passer with a low basketball IQ, I just don't view him as a primary ball handler in the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
