I didn't post in this thread, but my stance was any of the main 3 with Jabari 1st, Paolo 2nd, Chet last. Glad I'm not GM or we would've been crying about how Chet and Paolo are killing it right now while we were still hoping for more than a good role player out of Jabari.

We made the right call, I like chet but his long term health concerns me and with our injury luck on this team I'd be afraid he'd be another Issac

Then you mix with the power and bully ball he can do. The shot creation.... He's the guy. I don't believe we will pick him and I won't be mad if we don't. I get the apeal of the shot making Jabari can do and the long term upside of Chet. But I believe Paolo he is going to be 3 level scoring star and we'll regret passing on him even though I do believe Chet and Jabari will be good players too.

Happy to be on the right side of history. Don't want to look up my Franz post though. They will make me look as dumb as this makes me look smart

NGL, I kinda like his jumper more in college visually.

Not sure if it was more effective, but it seemed more smooth/quicker.

He has a bit of a Rashard Lewis sort of rise, flick it back a little, then shoot it thing now.

Ya it seemed quicker and less motion going on. Now it seems like his shooting hand/arm has kind of like this in and out motion going on (hard to describe), but there seems to be some kind of extra stuff going on.

But with that said, I definitely have more faith in his jumper falling now than I did when he was at Duke.

Paolo, Jokic, and Luka. These are the only guys leading their teams in PPG, APG and RPG?

Fun to look back at this thread and see how right I was. LOL.

Now if only the FO would've listened to me and grabbed SGA or MPJ in 2018...
