On the record...

I'll go on the record as saying that Conley has a lot left in the tank, he's not cooked. He's going to have a good season this year.

Totally agree with that. Mike is very serious, he has a great healthy life and is far from beeing done. Mark my world, this guy will make big things with us or not.
 
I am going on the record to say I believe Wembanyama is going to be the next #1 pick to bust. At least not live up to expectations and hype. I just think there are too many flaws in his game and he needs to add a lot of strength to his frame to compete at the next level. His shooting is more that suspect, it just doesn't look that good and his percentages aren't great. I just do not believe he is going to be a generational talent, like many think. He is more likely to bust than to be the next guaranteed franchise player let alone the next Bron-type game-changer.

If we get the #1 pick and select him I will really hope to be wrong in this. And if he proves me wrong no matter what, then good for him, I'll be happy for him. I just don't see it happening.

I think that's mostly fair. It will depend on health imo. My hot take that I am not sure I totally believe is that Scoot ends up being picked #1 cuz teams are scared.

Wemby has size, fluidity, the shot will fall more than it currently does, and seems to be a good passer. Not sure about the best prospect since Lebron stuff. He is almost too unique to assess though. It could be crazy fun or a nightmare as a fan.

I don't think this happens with Wemby but you never know. Teams may scare themselves off and hide behind health issues, though.

Kings took Tyreke Evans over Steph cuz he made him look like a little boy in a head to head workout.

Nearly impossible to predict those. Look at where Giannis was picked. Or Malone. Or look at how everyone at the Salt Palace booed the Stockton pick when it happened. So much of this is just a crap shoot.

I was just pointing out that maybe 1 on 1 isn't the best measure of how a player will perform in a 5 on 5 sport.
