Basketballnews.com: 10 years from now we will wonder why Cade Cunningham was chosen over Jalen Green

[DoubleClutch]

Lmao Jalen is not the best player on the rockets Cmon my nikka. What has Jalen lead? His stats across the board are exactly the same, he has not improved anything.

I’ll listen to the ESPN analysts and nba legends who played the game that say Jalen is the Rockets best player

People have already made their mind up about Green. Unless he lights it up in the playoffs, and becomes like a 28PPG guy next season nothing will change that fact.

Like there are people who don't watch Rockets games, or people who do watch Rockets games that still claim Jalen cannot play defense or pass or that the Rockets win in spite of Jalen.

@Squirrel from Meteor Man said Cade was destined to be a role player in the league.

Yes, if Green averages 28 next year that would be him…. Improving, he has not improved in any category. Whoever thinks he’s better than Sengun or Amen is lying

A lot of bad takes in here, that’s why it’s best to let things play out first.

 

[hashmander]

this debate never made any sense because if the rockets had the #1 pick they would have taken cade as well. luckily the rockets were able to get sengun later in the draft so the 2021 draft did produce an all-star for us.

And them same guys you talking about have the rockets losing for that exact same reason

You hear that @DoubleClutch Sengun is the best player, the all star. Amen is next. Then Green.

You've been knee deep in the clickbait & misinformation era for a while now letting things play out don't pay the bills

But some things have been true from the start. I don't dislike Green but unless you're getting ATG scorer potential or a guy that has ATG physicals (Giannis) and he's a scorer, you take the playmaker over the scorer. Bleacher report highlight reels & IG followers can't make up the impact difference.

Yea clearly people don’t watch rockets games or know their fan base. They only watch trending social media clips which make them think Amen is GOD.

Breh will have a game with 6 points but a crazy block or dunk will go viral and they call him the best player like some in this thread

You can tell who really watches full games and follows the team

Segun might be the best player statistically but Jalen is leading the team and the most important to their success when he plays well they’re unbeatable

Everyone really is ignoring their record. It’s pretty remarkable

Jalen is basically a 23 year old who didn’t go to college leading the 2nd best team in the NBA currently

You are fukking delusional nikka. Şengün laps Jalen in everything.

If you think the rockets are the second best team in the league… you just saying anything now. Even funnier you think Jalen is LEADING them cause he scores 2 more points than Şengün. Amen is the most important player on that team, and Şengün is the best player.

Real ones always had Cade > Jalen
