A dude on Realgm said Gerald Green > Felton

[Dead_Real]

I was just stunned by this announcement he wasnt bashing Ray at all but he just said that Green owned Felton on the court. discuss.

I think that the ceiling on Gerald Green is higher because of his ridiculous athleticism, but theres also more risk, who knows if his basketball skills will ever grow to match the level that his athleticism has already reached. Raymond Felton on the other hand, we know that hes going to be a quality point guard for the next 10 years, probably a multi-time all-star.
If I were going to pick one or the other, I would keep the bird in the hand versus the two in the bush.

I don\'t get it?

What\'s that supposed to mean?

Gerald Green is a 2/3. Felton is a 1 being forced to play the 2 because BK plays too much as it is.

They play 2 different positions. That\'s like comparing a Quarterback to a Defensive Lineman. It makes no sense whatsoever.

I look at it this way, Felton + G. Green = a bright future.

[Dead_Real]

He wasnt comparing there positions I see what your saying he was basically talking about Green going at 18 he called him a top 5 player which is not true IMO. I think Felton and Paul should have went before Deron,Bogot and Williams.

I think Gerald Green is a top 5 rookie, If they held the 2005 draft again today, I think it would go

1. Paul
2. Villanueva
3. Felton
4. Bogut
5. G.Green

[Dead_Real]

I would not call him top 5 because he is inconsistant but Channing Frye is a top 5. Green should have been top 10 last year with more minutes his numbers will go up.

Green will be better than Felton but I would take a top shelf PG like Felton over a top shelf wing like Green 10 out of 10 times.

The PG is harder to find.

Man Green is going to be something though.

Luckily for us, so is Felton.

Felton (IMO) will eventually become a mix of a young Tim Hardaway, a healthy Baron Davis and a Steve Francis with the right attitude.

And if all else fails, at least he is NOT Deron Williams!!

Tim \"I got skillz\" Hardaway is the player that Felton reminds me the most of. Back in his Golden State days during Hardaway\'s prime, when he had his mind set on getting to the basket, there was nothing that the defender could do about it.

You are I are on the same page ziggy.

Felton is a mix of everybody I like the Young Tim Hardaway comparison, throw in some of Mike Bibbys or T.J Fords speed and Allen Iversons fearless nature to drive on anyone. Felton > Green I see him being a all star before Green.

Why in the world are people comparing Felton to Green??? It could have been Felton and Green! Shouldn\'t you be comparing Green and May? May is the one the Bobcats took instead of Green! Felton went at 5, May at 13 and Green at 18. The Bobcats could have taken Green instead of May.

To say that \"Green will be better than Felton\" makes no sense at all when they play two completely different positions.

They are comparing them because that was the topic on real gm. Sean May was picked up to draw tickets point blank.

Theres going to be a lot of pressure on May to next season. Hes going to have to stay healthy, get in shape, ( stay away fromn Krispy Kreme and Dairy Queen ) and produce. If hes hurt most of next year or is out of shape next year, then I\'ll have no problem saying that he is officially a bust.

Damn, Felton/Green in the backcourt would have caused havoc in the NBA.
