    Shoot, with the drama in Brooklyn, offer them KPJ and a future BKN first for Banchero now. Those BKN picks are gonna be solid gold in a few years.

    We got the golden ticket. OKC got the wonka bar. And Orlando got Willy Wonka.

    He is just happy he did not end up in OKC. That is one boring city. Oklahoma in general sucks.

    Thinking of changing your username?

    For real though, so far he seems to have a really great attitude about pretty much everything. Had his soldier face on during the draft lol.

    I still can't get over it Magic GM really wants to be like Danny Ainge, Thought he could trick Stone into moving up while he gets extra first round picks, but Stone didn't bite, then he drafted Paolo and Stone still didn't bite now he has to hope Paolo works out for them or his job is gone. From what I am hearing he didn't even message or tell paolo he was going to be drafted it was someone from the FO that talked to him.

    He’ll get over it. Dude went #1 overall. He’s now a part of a unique group of guys taken first overall...and he’s making millions, I don’t feel bad at all.

    ….also can’t wait to see Jabari go at him for the first time July 7

    Sometimes being the first pick is not the best for your career, just look at Andrew Wiggins he is much happier playing for the Warriors then being picked #1 or his years in Minnesota.

    Wait, so Orlando took Bachero to force the Rockets to trade with them and the Rockets said "haha!"?
