I want Suggs. Players with his IQ rarely fail. He has the highest floor imo

Mobley, Suggs, Green would all fill a huge hole on the Raptors. Raps just need to sit back and take the guy who drops.

You build championships with PGs and Cs. All other positions are supplementary.

Considering the way Vanfleet plays and Suggs and VanFleet make a great backcourt. Add in a resigned Trent Jr. Gives you a great 3 headed monster.

Problem is we are still effed at C position.

I'm with Suggs but what? When was the last time a center was the best player on a championship team? Time Duncan?
Wings are the most important. LeBron, Durant, kawhi, Kobe, Wade are recent examples

We can draft a C in the 2nd round. Not overly worried.

Jalen Green is the guy you want imo

I think he’ll be the best player in this draft

I don't see how Mobley isn't the most obvious choice if he falls. I might even consider trading up for him if I'm Masai.

Basically, in Mobley you're getting all the things in a front-court player that we don't have and isn't available anywhere i.e. shot-blocking, finesse post-player, high IQ big who can shoot the three with mid-range ability. When he starts to pack on the muscle you're looking at the closest thing to Tim Duncan that's come from the draft since Chris Bosh.

We're not talking about James Bouknight and Tre Mann anymore?

What about Aldridge?

Is there a chance Mobley develops into a shooting Giannis?

We also sacrifice Malachi ball-time bringing him here and I don't really want to trade Flynn. He's going to turn into a good player who'll be too good to have off the bench.

When you have a prospect like Suggs, you dont even think about FLynn

I honestly like all of the top 4 picks, ill even say top 5 with Kuminga.....after that it's a huge drop for me

Yah. There will be no problem playing suggs/fred/flynn as our rotating guards. All of them are high iq. They'll figure it out.
.
This might mean kyle is gone for sure though.

There is no way we start all 3 of them. That lineup is way too small.

He's not as strong as Giannis, but he's more skilled and has higher basketball IQ. They're really nothing alike. I'm not sure if Mobley will end up being better, but he certainly has a chance.

We'll get Suggs but I'd EASILY rather have Green.

Suggs, Green's too risky.

#4 for Lebron. Lakers need to rebuild.

I think at this point it's we pick the best on whoever's left.

How many can't miss prospects are in the draft btw?

Mobley doesn't have the foot speed that Giannis has...but he's definitely more skilled.

Of course we will, Green is just my dream pick for this team.

Suggs is by far the most likely to be the guy left for us to draft HOWEVER I really do believe with the Cavs making public they would re-sign Allen after trading for him and Mobley's father being an apparent Raptor fan, that it's not hard to imagine leaking rumors of not wanting to go to CLE and Suggs replaces Sexton who the Cavs have long been rumored to be split on with multiple different issues he's had with coaches and teammates.

Who do we get at #4
