Yeah I’d favor the Nets in the East. Still find them kind of boring but I’m biased a bit.

Allen isn’t very good. He may not be good at all.

I take Mobley over Wiseman 10 times out of 10. Much more mobile, with legit potential on the defensive end, can shoot from outside, great passer. He'll need to fill out like Mitch has, but he looks like what Mitch becomes in our dreams + a high-end passing game :lol:

I feel the complete opposite lol. I think i rather have Wiseman all day. I don’t see Mobley being a guy who can get you buckets or a first/2nd option type guy. Seems like an Ibaka type player to me. Role player vibes


Sorta, but in the way that Chris Bosh was a role-player for the Heatles...only Bosh could never pass as well as Mobley.

I agree that he's unlikely to be the first option for a title winner...unless something ridiculous, like him taking his passing to Jokic levels, happens...but he looks like the perfect modern 5, who could realistically be a KG-in-Boston like second option.

The Warriors are light years ahead, so much so they took two career losers like Oubre and Wiggins and thought it was a good idea.

He is so damn hard to follow, too. Like I'll hear him and have no f'ing idea what he is talking about or how he even got there.

Knicks better bring their A game tomorrow. I'd hate for the Knicks to look anything like the Warriors right now. :\

Wiggins & Oubre are only there for the Warriors to be able to make salaries match when they use Wiseman & their two top 10 picks next spring to get Steph a new supporting cast.

I just see Mobley as a 15 PPG 7-8 RPG type player in his prime. Meh. Would take a couple of guys ahead of him in the draft

Oubre was 45/35/78 last season, playing solid D.

He just doesnt worth his 60-80M total price...
