OO is on another planet defensively than Mobley.

Lmao, I've been on a one-man crusade on this board talking people away from trading 4 first rounders for Dame. You included.

Can we get Jared Butler at #50, given the medical flag?

So what Dame is exactly what we need. We are on a hiding to nothing anyway so go all in or start again.

He'll likely be BPA at #28. If he checks out medically we should take him there.

I'm 1000% expecting us to take him at #28.

Read on Twitter

Yes keeping sleeping on Mobley.... Legit 7 foot with a 7”5” wingspan.

Incredible blocking instincts, elite roll man production. Midrange is coming along nicely as hell.
Already a better passer then Embiid even now (makes better/quicker reads and his passes are just better).

Loose hips, moves around the court effortlessly. His repositioning from perimeter to post on rotation is the highest easily.

76ciology putting Mobley at 6 is nuff nuff stuff. He has all the tools and then some to be the best player in this draft class all said and done.

Only him, Cade and Green actually flashed I’m the best player from this class on more then a few occasions. No one even came close imo

If Kobble believes Coby White will be better then Darius Garland then I have a crap car that drives like a Ferrari wink wink to sell you!

Year 3 Mobley and Green is going to be awesome.

Scout all the Kemba Walkers of the world, I’ll take Bosh or Adebayo without a second thought. Not even a question

I would take Mobley at 2

I actually have Mobley 1 and Green at 2. Green needs to go to a good environment though. but both I have a touch higher then Cade.

I suspect out of everything that doesn’t get picked up, Cade’s body is well developed. Look at his shoulders. Not much to go.

Means to say he’s very accustomed to his grown body more then others. Ain’t like Luka where he still had a ways to go.

Skill for skill there’s not actually much difference anyway.

Happily take the other two with already a sound base for a high tier prospect and a high ceiling. Yes and yes to both.

Having Cam Thomas over Evan Mobley is not even a humorous joke.

Kobblehead · Post #1190 » by **Kobblehead** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 2:10 am

Ayton is pretty tall, too. As is Wiseman. Keep overrating no defense bigs lol.

DCasey91 · Post #1191 » by **DCasey91** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 2:14 am

And you keep overrating small score and do nothing guards lol.

You contradict yourself at every turn. You said how high Tre Mann is on your big board.

And you said you'd trade the farm for Brandon Ingram. A score and do nothing player. You just changed the goal posts and said "yeah, but he's tall" so he doesn't count against your contradiction.

Evan Mobley. Your idea of a good investment at the top of the draft is a bigman that can't defend in space or rebound. You want to spend a top pick and presumably a max contract on a guy that will be setting screens and rolling to the basket in the playoffs. Bruh.

Kobblehead · Post #1193 » by **Kobblehead** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 2:23 am

And who tf wants the next Chris Bosh, in the first place lol? Toronto was a treadmill team with Bosh as their franchise player. A scoring PF is like the least valuable franchise player archetype

DCasey91 · Post #1194 » by **DCasey91** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 2:25 am

I really don’t care what you say Kobble it’s just noise when you talk. Literally zero substance in the things you say.

Kobblehead · Post #1195 » by **Kobblehead** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 2:28 am

I hope Cleveland wastes their lotto pick on Mobley. It will be hilarious seeing two skinny, no defense bigs like Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley getting targeted and destroyed on the perimeter by every ball handler they go up against. But at least they'll be tall and be able to set screens, dunk and block!

Kobblehead · Post #1196 » by **Kobblehead** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 2:32 am

All ontop of being beta? This is your man? Bruh

The biggest hurdle for Evan Mobley is himself. He can be as good as he wants to be, but the big question is, how badly does he want to be great? his body language and energy level raises red flags for some. Very soft spoken. Should work on becoming a most vocal leader.

Kobblehead · Post #1197 » by **Kobblehead** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 2:34 am

Jaren Jackson without the jumper with the motor of Andrew Wiggins and the personality of Noah Vonleh. Bruh.

Mik317 · Post #1198 » by **Mik317** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 3:26 am

Mobley could be great.

A lot of it is theoretical tho. I could see him being able to guard in space. Hit jumpers. Pass a little and hold down the paint.

He could also just be a run and jump dude who can pop out a bit.

As always I think Kobble goes overboard but he's not wrong here. To take a big man this high, he needs to do something elite and have some nasty to him. Biid is a jerk on the floor lol. Jokic has a nasty streak too. Both guys also have elite skills alongside their collection of other talents. Not going to say I watched a ton of USC but when I did...I saw a guy who could do a lot of stuff really well but nothing that popped. Embiid popped at Kansas in his short stay.

I think Orlando would be a nice spot for him as would OKC as they have a glut of guards and their bigs are ass lol. The Cavs are going to try to play him at the 4 and he's going to be mid there IMO.

Josh Christopher for me ranges from 20-25. His numbers is bad and his game on eyetest is just average for me.

I could be wrong i dont have a crystal ball.

Yes and that’s how you somehow ended up having Cam in front of Mobley, but sure you and Kobble can talk up and bring down other prospects by looking at a stat sheet. Cool

Have you seen the size of him? A freshman first year playing as a SG when he was an SF. Do you know his FT% is an obvious indicator of transferability. Shot it well fine last six games

Once again have you seen the size of him? I digress
