mobley would still be a great pick


I was moreso asking how he knew Mobley’s father was an apparent Raptors fan.


I won't lie I haven't gone to check myself lol but I've read on here from multiple posters on here (ie/ Son_Goku25 being one I seen repeat it few times lol) that his father (might have said Evan himself) only follows our team out of any on Twitter which would be quite the random coincidence.

Green is the safest pick out of the top 4. Players with his athleticism, size and scoring ability don't bust. The last time we saw a player with this type of combo was Kobe...

Wiggins' athelticism is overrated and he wasn't the natural scorer that Green is. Also one major difference between the two which makes all the difference: Wiggins is stiff af and a straight lane driver. Green has that Kobe wiggle. Super shifty and agile

Someone else mentioned Terrance Ross and I think that's exactly who Green would be if he doesn't pen out.

Tross was a better shooter/defender but doesnt have the handles or iso scoring ability of Green.

But yeah, it's Green's combination of overall athleticism and skill that makes him the most coveted off-guard prospect since Kobe.

Not even close. Wiggins had goat tier athleticism that was it. Green has the same athleticism, while boasting a complete offensive skill set.

Green averaged more points in the G-League than Wiggins averaged in college on far greater efficiency. To me Green has HOF level potential. While Cade is the safer bet to reach allstar star status, Green simply put has the highest ceiling in the draft.

Mobley is from San Diego. Just speculating but I wouldn’t be shocked to find out Kawhi knows that family.

Lowry for Simmons sign and trade?

Simmons --- khem
Siakam --- Boucher
OG --- Brembry
Suggs/Green --- Trent
FVV -- Flynn

The one thing that scares me a bit about Jalen Green is he gives off an aura of diva superstar. It’s pretty clear he’s been touted as the next great thing for a while and he knows it. Makes me wonder if he’ll fit in with Raptors culture and stay in TO long-term.

Man..... after Uncle Dennis, norms family connection with kawhi, kawhis daughter born in Toronto, kawhi seen carrying boxes, masai's tie with Giannas family, flynns dad chiming in, Uber driver, and Kyle selling his house.
I am starting to get really tired of these player family connections that ultimately amount to nothing. We really should just concentrate on the on court product.
In the end its just business.

I wasn’t suggesting it meant anything, just offering a plausible connection. The Norm angle is just as likely. But I do think it’s positive if true. Always helps to get a good referral from a friend when you’re moving somewhere new.

I'm not very high on Suggs but I trust our development. I think it's him or Green that we get.

Yeah but people are going to soak it up and start fantasizing about Mobley forcing his way to Toronto and get their hopes up :lol:

Who's the most likely? Right now, the view seems to be Jalen Suggs.

My personal preference is Mobley, Green and then Suggs. Think they're all amazing prospects still.

Suggs will be a perennial all-star. Not sure how anyone can say that they aren’t high on him. I can understand wanting Mobley or Green more, but Suggs is no slouch. He can do it all.

I take whoever is left of the likely top 4;
My preference is Suggs of the two.
