    sites that are throwing darts at the wall. I don't need to look at random sites when the best sources of research do not have banchero going #1. And he won't.

    That's the thing with casuals they think reading darts on the walls articles gives facts. they don't

    I didn’t say he was going #1. I said it’s a possibility. You said it’s not a possibility. I know this is hard, so try to use some of your brain.

    if you don't think he's going #1 then you don't jump in the middle of it as if you think he's going #1.

    It's not a possibility. He isn't going #1 no matter what random mock drafts that someone online produces

    There's a good chance Paolo will go first. Magic really needs a go to scorer. Do I think Paolo will go first? Nah, and I'm happy if he drops to us. We are focusing on the wrong thing. We should be paying attention to the 17th pick and whether we want to move up or stay at the 17th.

    Give me odds, then. If he doesn’t go #1, I’ll donate $25 to the tip jar. If he goes #1, you donate $100.

    First three rows can change. Paolo may be select #2 pick. İmo 2022 draft will be very interesting.

    Whichever of Banchero, Chet, or Jabari is left should be the only answer here

    Every time I read these little tidbits it reinforces my beliefs the lottery is rigged and somehow already happened or is established somehow

    1. Jalen saying Banchero is his lil bro and watched him the most primarily in April

    2. Chet already posting about Okc josh giddy replying ala Kpj, green last year

    3. Now anonymous executives saying They most likely draft Jabari.

    Looks like the picks are already established and from now to the draft is nothing but smoke and posturing.

    the other "assets" (Wood+Gordon) are to acquire John Collins and Gallo's partially guaranteed contract

    and remember this is assuming the Rockets selected J.Ivey #3 over Banchero, so it's like
    Paolo / Wood + KPJr. + Gordon + Nawaba
    v.s.
    J.Ivey / Collins + #16pk (T.Eason) + Jalen Johnson + Gallo (saved $15mil. after being waived)

    Cool so all we need to get the #1 pick next year is for Green to call Victor or Scoot his Lil bro. Easy money
