Hell, we might be in the playoffs.Odds aren’t great but they are there. More unlikely things happens every single day. It’s a dice roll.

People acting like Amen ain’t a potential all star either. Dude is athletic as hell, has amazing positional size, has skill, needs a jumper but that is a fixable issue (not a guarantee).
Cam Whitmore was considered a top 3-5 guy before the season. Has thumb surgery and misses time/camp… what if he didn’t have the surgery and Brandon Miller had thumb surgery… what do their seasons look like? Is he being slept on here?
Maybe Ausar is the better twin? Maybe he’s got some juice we haven’t seen?
Walker could be a beast…
Those guys won’t be there at 10/11… there is no guarantee you can find a fair price to move up. I get that Wemby should be effing awesome… 3% is 3%.
They all think Victor is a once-in-a-generation player, You said that's a wild assumption.
How are you not disagreeing?
No, but the FO does, and they’re the ones throwing it away.
He’s a generational talent/prospect… not a generational player. You hope he becomes that… injuries and such could derail that. He should change your franchise’s future… but even Lebron took a while to win titles… oden was a can’t miss dude… This one pick does not limit the ceiling of the team whether it’s Wemby or some other player… I’m simply more willing to cash in our 3% shot at that guy for the guarantee of being at #4. It’s not crazy to think that we have a much better shot at an all nba talent at #4 than we do at #10… I think its potentially a better opportunity than a 3% shot at Wemby.

That sounds like an honest, unblinking assesment of a dire situation, which is what I like.
What I don't like is claiming a half empty glass is basically full "if it just improves its jump shot."
That's wishful thinking. Wishful thinking leads to drafting people like Chet Holmgren, Greg Oden, Zion Williamson, Michael Porter Jr and Yao Ming.
Oh, and Wemby.
Yeah I was one of those who thought Zion was an accident waiting to happen. He just seemed too heavy for the way he plays to not be constantly injured.

Hardy needs to play Brantley and Gay each 48 minutes tonight.
Say it with me…
