Nope. Think your jaded by what happened. A Lot of teams wanted him and the Wiz had a bunch of offers before and after he was picked because of the hype

Dawg google any mock draft from 2001. Kwame was going to be picked first or 2nd, period. Yeah the Jordan led front office thought he had more upside than downside. No mainstream media was questioning his skills or his rank as a top 3 pick. The only people that brought anything were ol school heads that didn't believe any high school player should be picked 1-5. At the time rumor was the Grizzlies (#3 pick which they ended up getting Pau gasol with) were trying to trade up to get him.

Story or how he played the eventual 2nd pick Tyson chandler before the draft, 1 on 1 in front of the Wiz staff "and killed him"

Philly is determined to have a rebuilding year every year
Danny Ainge on that bullshit
Paprika
Retired
Let Rose finish out his contract and move Jennings to Pg if they really want Rubio. Negligible difference.
game is pretty much in the bag
here are my observations
-Boogie is an underrated passer. He has great touch for a big guy. He definitely is going to be a lynch pin for the pels offensively at the Center position. They showed some great flashes early on, but see next point
-you cant just suit up and play. It will take this team some time to fully gel. You can tell initially everyone was so anxious that they were over passing trying to get Boogie and AD involved
-Gentry has to find a way to get the best production from these rotations when its just one of them on the floor
-i like caspi
-houston's chemistry is amazing. They might legit give GS a run if they meet in the playoffs. Damn near anybody can pull up, and Lou Williams was an awesome pick up for them.
