I feel like we're one small step away from Nabisco marketing interns lurking reddit throwing in comments like this.

                  I imagine it’ll be more of a “start the season and see what kind of potential this group has and then decide from there” type situation. We still have a ton of assets we could consolidate to get a good pick/player if we miss out on a high pick this upcoming season

                        Still though, a bunch of 10+ 1st round picks isn't the same as a top 3 pick. Those are a whole different league.

                        Presti does horde picks but picking number 2 that still needs to be an impact player. I think it will, obviously as I'm a homer, but its definitely a risk to get a project pick at number 2. But if he puts on weight yeah his size, rim protection, shooting, handles, its all crazy.

                        He looked bad against good competition that is also not the “grown men” bodies he will face in the nba

                        At best he will struggle for 2 years before bulking/strengthening and becoming a good player

                        At worst he will be forever bullied by bigger bodies

                            I unironically think there is a very feasible scenario to where Chet turns into a top 5 player of all time. Magic/Bird level guy. I also unironically think there is a very feasible scenario where he is out of the league in 5 years.

                            Can’t wait to see how he turns out, 0 fucking clue.

                            Lmao wonder what he’d have to do in those 5 years. 40/15/5 and 4 MVPs, 4 championships, retired by age 25

                            An example of this I can think of is Ian Thorpe, who was a swimmer. He was pretty much done at the age of 21 (2004), and had won 5 Olympic Gold Medals, 3 Silvers, 13 World Championship wins and 10 Golds at the Commonwealth Games, cementing him as the likely best swimmer after Phelps.

                              SAS: Sure, he was MVP in ALL his playing years, finals MVP 4 times, 4 championship rings and never lost a playoff game. But HE CANNOT BE THE FACE OF THE NBA!

                              Skip: Yeah, the kids good, but he does not have the wisdom that only 6 or more years in the NBA can give you. And his free-throw shooting is atrocious. I would put him in between Paul Pierce and Manny Pacquiao.

                                  His natural defensive IQ/ability to recover gives me a lot of hope that he is who I thought he was 2 years ago: a generational guy. At the very least, I think that’ll keep him on the court in the NBA

                                          I’m not saying this comp is right but did everyone forget what Giannis looked like when he came in the league lol

                                          So did Embiid. It's not about the size, it's the frame and Chet is a coat hanger

                                          embiid was in good as fuck shape even at Kansas what are you talking about 😭crazy small before he came overseas of course but

                                          Yeah in talking about his stick frame before he got discovered. Took him a few years to fill out but he was always able to add weight with his frame.

                                          Yep - he's built like KD... except KD was actually 25 pounds heavier when drafted!

                                          too bad nobody who has ever played against Chet has realized how small he is and tried to overpower him

                                          NBA basketball is a LOT more physical than college basketball. 18 year-olds don't nearly have the same amount of muscle mass as say 25 year-olds. I still think that Chet can succeed, but as he is, he would get driven down his throat every play.

                                              Giannis had a much wider frame and was 6'9" 196

                                              Chet is 7'0" 190

                                              Chet was 195 during the season. I doubt he lost 5lbs in the past half year. Lol

                                                Giannis weighed a pound more while being 3 inches shorter at the combine compared to Chet.

                                                He had broad shoulders though..... Chet is narrow like KD, but somehow way more skinny

                                                          It’s the frame. The biggest Chet will get is maybe KD, which is probably fine.
