In defense of Paolo, if you watched the magics playoff run this year, it was very very obvious that the awful awful offensive talent on the Magic are what is holding him back. He had a few flashes of being something special, but the magics whole offensive gameplan was for him to just take the ball and force it into the teeth of a great Cleveland defense with almost zero spacing, and try to get some stuff going. And he did pretty well considering those circumstances and his age. Like Cade, it’s a question of how bad his team is vs how much of that is on him, but I think Paolo has shown enough flashes for me to lean towards not blaming him for his efficiency being crap

[@willjensen5595]

Paolo showed he could be the best player on a good playoff team. Totally agree

[@johndavis9321]

A bit??? PG say what you want about him was a top 5 ish player for a few seasons while out in Indiana had an MVP level season in OKC and is still going strong currently and is a probable Hof John wall had a legit 3 or 4 year run as the best or one of the best pg's in the league those 2 alone should have been enough to give this draft at least a C
