I think that the pistons made a mistake and should have taken jalen green #1. The scoring ability and agility green displays is incredible. frankly, never seen anyone else in the NBA with that skillset before. looks better than kobe out there. the length and fluidity are insane.
cade looks kinda sleepy and I doubt he will live up to the #1 billing. he will not be as good as LUCA in my opinion, which is how he is being billed.
I know it’s 1 game but I’m on your jalen train. I’m sure case will be good but he doesn’t have the athletic agility skill package that jalen has.

yup regarding the agility and skill level. cade is too stiff and leadfooted. jalen is explosive. let's see how jalen rounds out his game though. playmaking, decisionmaking, rebounding, and defense. but scoring? he's got that A+

well, cade is not oden, and he is not injured.
but yes, Green looks smoother than durant ever was or will be. durant does not look "smooth"
Green is so smooth - just never seen anyone like this. He is lithe.

I thought Bouknight looked more impressive from a physical, explosiveness standpoint. His ability to prove for angles to the rim and burst to the rim was eye-opening.

size though.
Cade i expect to be a Middleton type later in this career. Green more like LaVine. Both stars but i don't see super star/franchise changing level for either.
I dunno maybe we let them play a regular season game or two.
I think Cade will be more like a Ben Simmons type. Green like a more fluid T-mac/Rip Hamilton combo.
Love Jalen Green. On top of that, he is Half-Filipino! Woot Woot!

+5.25 inch wingspan compared to +2 for Jalen.

Utterly ridiculous. Where do you come up with this stuff?
They both looked great in the summer league. Jalen Suggs too. Pretty excited at this new crop of talent in the NBA. Wish the Knicks have gotten a few of those, though I still have faith in RJ.
