What, no Chet?

 

[1 Eye Jack]

Sad part is he won’t get enough playing time to even be considered.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

So many of us wanted this guy.

Out for the season

Will be fun to see who's the better #17.

Ultimately, I hope it's our guy, but I won't be surprised if theirs is better this year and next. I also won't be surprised if he's better than his higher-drafted rookie teammate.

That was the joke. OKC was on the right side of Durant/Oden....and this was their turn screw up.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say better for the duration of their rookie deals.

The will get Viktor too nxt year.

 

[PDXFonz]

These odds are Legit

Should be Paolo but Keegan might sneak in on him.

Vegas had Chet at similar odds as Paolo. Sucks for anyone who placed a bet on Chet before his injury because that’s now a loss.

I don’t think we should get our hopes up on Sharpe winning it tbh

Too early to call Chet a bust. He was great in summer League

 

[KSF-ERIC]

If we did what we did with Dame, ie start him on day 1 and play 40 mpg, Sharpe would prob win ROY. And maybe that’s what we should do. Our only path to a title for the next five years is Sharpe becoming a star. Give him all the minutes he can handle.

 

[HailBlazers]

Yea OK

 

[tykendo]

From start to finish, Paolo was fantastic. He deserves the ROY. Sharpe came on late, and his future looks very, very bright. Two Thumbs Up for Joe and Mike. They could have went safe. But they reached for the stars instead.

Yep. Imagine having our current situation but having AJ Griffin or something instead of Sharpe. At least we have a rock solid draft scouting team, even if the rest of the GM duties might seem a bit lacking.

Bullshit. Kessler is not roty. Bachero easily. Typical dumbass media. Name a SINGLE team who would give up Bachero for Kessler. Ainge would blow his load if he could swap Kessler for Banchero

Kessler is cheaper Rudy Goober. They play similarly.

 

[SIeepwalker]

Yea OK

Of course the dude is from the Salt Lake Tribune lmao

Goober lmao

It's insulting that Daniels was this close.

 

[THE HCP]

I remember I asked Chuck Sworsky once why he was the ONE vote for Bargnani. He laughed and said, “Roy was going to win in a landslide anyway, I felt bad for our guy!”
Was a douche nozzle!

Yeah, anytime the only dissenting vote for one of these awards is from a "journalist" for a guy in his/her local market, it's absolute bullshit.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

But but but WABC or something…

Except...his argument is reasonable and valid. The advanced figures do favor Kessler, by a LOT. There was no valid argument for Bargs.

Fuck advanced stats FAMS! It should be who would you rather have on your team.

Then I guess it depends on what your team needs. It's arguable that Kessler could help this Blazer team more than Banchero could.

So if you were Utah and you were offered Banchero straight up for Kessler, you would turn them down? This isn't a trick question it's a question with an obvious obvious answer to see if you're committed to following this nonsense through or not.

Paolo has the potential to be a multi time MVP, I don't think anyone thinks that about Walker Kessler.

 

[Natebishop3]

This is all irrelevant because Shae will be considered the best player from this draft in a few years.
