I personally don’t see the Middleton comparison. To me Bey looks like a supercharged Maxi Kleber, which is a great piece on any team. Green, IMO, is by far the superior perimeter defender. He has Ben Simmons-level defensive potential. Green is also 1.5 years younger than Bey... he will spend that time developing with the Mavs instead of college. We should see significant gains from him next season. All in all, time will tell, but even with my homer glasses off I think I take Green over Bey today.
