    When the same poster that condemns anyone who brings up that Chet was compared to KD or KG or any other big time player, and then in the same breath compare him to Lebron. When no scouting service has actually done it comes off just a tad bit biased.

    I tried to engage, even when I knew you were just going to take it there.

    It's scary how much in your head I am, you probably orgasmed when I replied to you so you could get this weak ass take off.

    Just as pathetic as ever.

    Man, does your head fit through any doors? Your opinion of yourself is completely deslusional.

    You may know what you meant by a stupid metaphor, one that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. But other people that understand 1.0 means the original version, aka Lebron himself, think it’s kind of dumb.

    If you would have said Banchero is 1.0 to Lebron 3.0 or 7.0 even, it might have made a little more sense.
    Would have been easier saying Banchero is a poor man’s Lebron or Lebron-super light

    Melo averaged exactly 2.2 AST.

    Paolo averaged exactly 3.2 AST.

    In what reality does this equate to Banquero averaging "almost" TWICE the number of assists than Melo?

    Your math does not add up.

    Givony says Banchero comp is a post-injury Blake.

    Dammm.

    I wouldn't go that far.

    Shades of Julius Randle is supposed to say what?

    Can you put in the actual links so we can get context and when they made these comparisons and how they project Banchero?

    This is also what Givony said so is he a guy you believe in or not?



    Scmitz also said Banchero should be # 1

    You really gonna continue to galight?

    Show me one post where I said he was as good as Lebron.

    And this coming from the guy who acts like comparisons to all NBA top 50 is a terrible thing.

    Sigh.

    Melo had a total of 77 assists in 35 games.
    Paolo had a total of 124 assists in 39 games.

    almost
    adverb
    al·most | \ ˈȯl-ˌmōst , ȯl-ˈmōst \
    Definition of almost
    : very nearly but not exactly or entirely. We're almost there. The work is almost done.

    Since you like being anal Paolo had EXACTLY 1.61 times more assists in college than Carmelo Anthony. Do you follow or need more explainin'?

    According to Schmitz, Banchero is the most polished of the top three prospects in this year’s draft and boasts an impressive, well-rounded offensive game, exhibiting “legitimate guard skills” and the ability to be a ball-handler in the pick and roll. However, he doesn’t have the same defensive upside as Holmgren or Smith.

    Finish the quote.

    He has Chet #1.

    You are lying now. C'mon man. I like Paolo too and he's not very popular within this community. It seems as if everyone likes Jabari around here but don't go making things up. It gives those who want to discredit you some credence.

    Chet clears everyone in this draft though and it's not even a debate. My alien superstar is going to dominate the league and become the logo.

    Y’all really need to lighten up and have a more civil discourse. The D&D is more civil then draft discussion these days.

    I like Banchero a lot. His ball handling, footwork, shot creation, and court vision especially for his size are phenomenal.

    Since we all like comps these are three older guys with similar builds that I see as floors for Paolo.

    Tom Chambers
    Tom Guggliotta
    Detlef Schrempf

    Now these guys were all All Stars and strong scorers but not overly athletic and not known as defensive stalwarts. I think Banchero’s playmaking is better and if he works on his defense he could be a perennial all star.

    I lean Jabari but if we end up with Paolo I would be thrilled. Very high floor and very polished. Look at what Draymond’s secondary playmaking does for the Warriors. I’d love to see a pnr with Banchero and Green that can use it.

    u said he’s Lebron 1.0…it makes no sense

    “Paolo is Lebron minus the Lebron qualities, he’s Bron 1.0”

    Huh?

    u still don’t get it…I don’t think he’s Melo to begin with because he does not have Melo’s scoring skill…he must be Melo 1.0

    It makes no sense to you we get it.

    And 2.0 is does not mean entirely different product it means improved upon product and that's what I mean Lebron is enhanced and better Banchero.

    I think he is better than Melo so I don't know where you are getting that from it seems you are not even coherent on what I have said about Banchero.

    I have no doubt if he was under the same circumstances as Melo at syracuse he could do everything and more.

    I really wonder if they gave Jonathan Tjarks the axe at The Ringer. He was very knowledgeable when it came to NBA prospects and wouldn’t have made this kind of mistake
