Lottery picks usually never do if they perform well in their rookie year.
Oh ok, I'd love to watch him in the summer league tho. Selfish on my end.

They're polar opposite players. Paolo can barely defend 1 position let alone 5.

The best comparison I've heard for Paolo is Pistons Blake Griffin

They’re not entirely wrong lol. He’s a 6’10 250 pound playmaking forward who can score from 3 levels.

He’s definitely more skilled than Scottie on that end. Barnes isn’t a great defender yet but he’s still one of the most versatile defenders in the league and I doubt Paolo ever becomes that.

Technically, Scottie is actually closer to Sabonis on offence than he is Paolo. :lol:

I'm asking because Sabonis is skilled on offense and defensively underwhelming and Paolo seems the same.

I don’t know, that’s a wild comp lol. I can’t even wrap my head around it.

I think he’s going to be what everyone thought Jabari Parker was supposed to be without the injury bug.

Paolo is ahead of Scottie offensively. He’s really the only guy from this draft that would’ve had a case to be drafted higher than Scottie.

With that said the difference defensively between the two is enormous and much larger than the difference offensively.

And if Scottie gets a J, it’s a wrap.
