Last season people were bitching and moaning because Payton and Dipo "didn't work". We're now on our second young and talented SG that supposedly Payton cant play with. At what point do people admit that maybe Payton is the **** problem when it comes to our inconsistent guard play? How about expecting him to adjust to the more talented players around him? Or should we just give Fournier away for nothing like we did with Oladipo? If we keep throwing away talent just to appease a below average player who's again on the bench then we'll never get better.
So you're just going to ignore the possibility that we end up with Tatum or Josh Jackson or Isaac? 4 of the top 7 are forwards right now.
People need to also remember that 4 years ago the no brainers competing for the #1 (in February 2013) overall pick were Noel (got hurt before the tournament), Smart (stupidly stayed in school), and McLemore (Ben McLemore). None of them went in the top 5. These things change quickly.

Marcus Smart could be No. 1 pick
