Even if he's "just Jrue Holiday" he's going to be a damn fine player that matters towards winning. Then again, we saw teams pass on that type of player in Haliburton so who the hell knows with these GMs. Houston should definitely take Green. Then it gets interesting as to what Cleveland will do. I think they'd still take Mobley because we've seen them try the big man lineup with Drummond so they won't shy away from having Allen, Mobley, Nance and Love. Love's days are numbered anyways in Cleveland so I don't think he'd have much of an impact on the pick. Where the draft gets interesting is at #5. Kuminga makes sense due to the upside but Orlando is known for going off the board. I don't think they'd take Barnes but I could see them being more interested in Keon Johnson or Moses Moody. Wouldn't put Jalen Johnson past them either. Sengun could be a dark horse here, being completely honest. Sounds like Cleveland is leaning towards Jalen Suggs and trading Sexton. Garland - Suggs - Okoro - Prince - Allen That spacing may set the league back 50 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idgaf if the rockets get jalen green they’re still the rockets and we still got half their picks Not really, I mean other than SGA, who else is there to be excited about on your roster? Poku, Maledon, Dort, and Bazley all sucked last season. You were making plans for Cade and Green but I warned you my son to pre-order that Scottie Barnes jersey.

C Wood is capable , Mobley will be better down the line but its a force pick. Green will be a scoring machine 20+ and pairing him with Porter Jr is instant offense. green, kpj, and wood seems a little reckless to me not super high level bb iq from them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Orlando with 5/8 is in a weird spot, they will continue to add athletes with no jumpers to their collection of athletes with no jumpers.

I don't agree with his take but I'd be excited about Poku if I were an OKC fan. The potential is there, it just needs refined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I hope they go against the grain and stop with the athletes with unrefined basketball skill. I'd honestly take Davion Mitchell at 5, make Cole Anthony a 6th man and then take Moody at 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're only committed to KPJ for 1 year and Wood for 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to say OKC is in the best spot of any rebuilding team with their current core and picks is pushing it, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 If I were Orlando I'd offer Cleveland #5, #8, and anyone on the roster for #3 and Sexton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie man Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 1 hour ago, NYRaider said: The Cavaliers are in an interesting spot at #3. The Rockets could take Evan Mobley or Jalen Green and whichever one is left isn’t really a great fit with your current roster construction. Jarrett Allen is a a RFA but I can’t imagine the team let’s him walk this summer. Assuming the Rockets go Green at #2 do you take Mobley who’s best suited to play the 5 when the league is trending away from traditional big men? Brian Windhorst said the Cavaliers will likely take Suggs and trade Sexton. Which would be a weird move, IMO cause he doesn’t fit great next to Garland either. Windhorst doesn’t know what he’s talking about anymore at least when it comes to the Cavs. Right now I’d guess Green would be the pick, but personally I would love to trade down with Orlando and pickup 5 and 8. Go Kuminga and Jalean Johnson. That would be much better for our roster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
