This is what Ben Simmons should’ve became. Crazy that young Simmons got an order of magnitude more hype than young Paolo

Paolo's passing game is coming along.

Remember the smokescreen leading this board to oogle and gaggle over Jabari Smith Jr, who was absolutely an incredible prospect who is obviously developing not as well right now.

I was at the game tonight randomly flying out of Orlando and caught it before I left.

What an experience Paolo was completely unstoppable in that first half.

Just an insane performance and then the 4th quarter comeback to cap it off.

To witness that in person makes you realize the kind of gravitas this kid has. Haven't seen anything like that in Orlando since prime McGrady.

It's too bad ORL didn't draft Jabari instead.

Jabari is going to be good. He just requires more time. Paolo is what the Magic needed.

OMG so many people wanted that, would have been a massive mistake.

Jabari is a role player at best.

He's literally like a scottie barnes WITH an first-team all nba offence. I'm happy for you Magic fans, he's taking the next step to NBA superstardom.

Paolo's improvement as a "star" is what's so impressive. He is a rich man's Carmelo and will one day take the Magic to the finals.

Nah, Ben Simmons would have never because their body is different. Paolo is straight up more fluid and moves like a point guard. It's wild.

He was clearly set to reach bonafide star status. Happy for him and the long suffering Magic fans.
