Great fit with Sengun and Green. If he turns out to be Rashard Lewis with defense I'm fine with that.
He looked sick to his stomach when Chet was picked. He thought he was a certified number 1 pick. Looked more embarrassed for a second
Orlando can't build anything right. Not saying Paolo will bust or will become a bad player but they obviously don't know how to build a team.
Does he look nervous or disappointed? I like the pick, but I get the feeling Banchero and Jabari expected something different? Or is there a trade coming?
I am SO PSYCHED at this. Jabari has been the consensus #1 for a long time now. Complete shocker that he fell into our laps. I watched a lot of college ball this season - and Smith is the real deal. I personally felt awkward about the fit between Banchero and Sengun - both face up playmaking bigs without elite shooting, and needing to grow defensively. Smith can lock in defensively from day 1, and OH THE SPACE he will create with his shot for Green and PorterJr to attack. This is going to be fun.
Best player in the draft, when is the summer league also is jabari better than Evan Mobley. Both got Chris Bosh comps
Best shooter in the draft. Will hit the open shots that Jalens gravity will provide. No spacing questions with Sengun. Inside scoring is irrelevant since he will spend his life on the perimeter. Needs to develop a handle but at worst will be a high level 3&D player. Need to shift focus to an offensive wing to set the table at 17.
The odds were so low when I hoped they would draft 2nd last year where I wanted green. It happened. I wanted Jabari this year. Wowowowowo
