lol yes it is, Cade is going #1, it's done


I was referring to "Motor" Cade. Obviously he's going 1. His nick might be Horse Drawn Buggy Cade if he goes to Oklahoma.


Cade to Detroit is a done deal

Seems like it. Which is nuts I’d take the SGA trade in a heartbeat.

Someone said Presti wants Mobley, not Cade. I'm not sure where it came from.

Doubt it otherwise (if the okc trade deal was right) Weaver would’ve took it.

Why would they take it? What does who Presti wants at 1 have anything to do with Weaver accepting a trade with 6 and Shai.

It is puzzling. Why would the Pistons not want to swap 1 for 6 while taking on a player coming off injury that OKC seems anxious to move and is due a big payday after next season?

Coming off an injury is laughable. He was shut down for tanking purposes.

Is he also shut down for the Olympics, so that Team Canada gets a high pick?

Cade goes number 1, but I would love for Houston to move up for the Texas kid.

As a prospect though, to me, his handle unlocks everything. If he gets it on a string, I think he will be able to get anything he wants on the court.

With the insane unteachable athletic gifts both Mobley and Green possess along with high floors
I think its very possible Cade falls to 3 or 4 because everything with him is skill based and his lack of explosive athletic ability caps his ceiling lower than them . He might be chalk lock on mocks but if Detroit has a clue he aint their selection...

Sure it makes sense for that to be the storyline but i am not going to ignore the impact Mobley and Green have had compared to Cade in the most recent of buzz about town...
Cade as skilled as he is has an off shooting night and he cant get past his man to the hole at all thats a problem imo.

you don't have to ignore anything, and I personally have Mobley #1 overall in a vacuum, but Cade's going #1, not even sure why we are talking about dropping...let alone to 3 or 4 lmao

You should throw some wagers down if you really believe Cade isnt going one. 10-1 or 20-1 you could make a killing being the smartest guy in the world!

Green has a high floor? Say he is a high volume meddling efficiency scorer. How does he impact the game on an off night? Seems like he either has to be a high volume high efficiency scorer or develop the other parts of his game that Cade already has in his bag.

Already did it lol...
No but he will be a good pro just think if you got any options you want hes not the highest ceiling prospect...My take is if either of these teams has the guts to risk him being the next Doncic they passed on for prospects labelled the next Hakeem or the next Mamba seems real.
