    Paolo was the favorite but then the Woj tweet and now Smith is back at -500.

    I think most people have it backwards. Chet supplied his medicals ONLY to ORL & OKC, but the rumor of him skipping the NBA heart screening is still running wild.

    Chet only gave medicals to Orlando and OKC and didn't give them to the Rockets.

    You’re late. ESPN insider like Woj reported the opposite saying Chet only provide medical to Orlando and OKC. I rather trust Woj. It’s going to be Jabari, Chet, Paolo in this order.

    I called it. Hope I'm wrong on this one. Really not liking what I've been hearing about him not wanting to show his medical records to the top 2 teams.

    Heard anything about Chet skipping the heart screen? Any idea why he would if so?

    He didn’t show them to the top 2 but did show them to the Rockets. Yeah. 4d chess move by Chet? He only gave his medicals to Orlando and OKC. This is old news.

    Chet has been my #1 prospect from day one, but this medical stuff is worrying me more and more.

    What?! You know what? That's it. Let's all just forget about Chet. There are just too many mysteries popping up. Dont want to use this high of a pick on mysteries.
    Trade down.

    No news about it for weeks then suddenly surface? Just smoke screen to shake thing up. I’ll still happy to take him if he’s available at 3rd pick.

    Who knows why the rumor started or how much of it is accurate. Still a little eye raising. Marfan syndrome has also been thrown around.

    It’s funny; several months ago Chet was my #1. But now there’s no way I’d take him over Paolo. Paolo has the highest floor of the top 3. To me he’s a can’t miss prospect. Chet may have the higher upside, but Paolo is a sure thing.

    Personally i worry about his health, but Durant had similar frame so if we're using him as a big sf then it mitigates the need to bang in the paint which keeps him healthier...

    That being said, #4 on my board...
