[Myles Turner] “I thought I was going #5 to Orlando… I’m at the table in the green room: ‘With the 5th pick… Mario Hezonja’ — who the fuck is this?”

    I feel like we fumbled Myles growth so bad. Dude has such a unique skillset that is perfect for the modern game and we just put him in a bad position to develop for so long. He finally looked more like the idea of Myles Turner last year, but can’t help but feel like it’s too late. Still a very good starter that would fit seamlessly on most teams, but can’t help but feel that his ceiling was so much higher.

    I’m still pissed Devin Booker pleaded with ownership to draft him and we ended up with Croatian Josh Jackson

    Mario dunked on giannis and blocked bron as a knick

    I think he would say the same thing about you ?

    I mean did he ever look at a mock draft. Hezonja was always thought to go top 10.

    “The Croatian LeBron” was his scouting report.

    This man is so fine–it should be recognized more

    If you just woke up from a coma and saw Hezonja’s NBA highlights, you’d think he was an all-star and perennial MVP candidate. What a weird career.

    I swear you can watch Mario Hezonja summer league tape rn and still convince yourself he is gonna be a star.

    “I’m happy I got drafted to Indiana where there’s nothing to fucking do.”

    Why is he wearing sunglasses inside?

    Is this the camera lighting? Why this mf look like a Simpson?

    That’s such a nice way to say glad he went to a place that doesn’t have shit to do. 😂

    What city you get drafted to making or breaking your career is a really underrated aspect of the NBA.

    A guy could go 1st overall and “bust” because he’s competing with certain other players, or maybe the coach’s system doesn’t fit, or maybe that player will have trouble staying focused somewhere, etc.

    We see it pretty often where a player will plateau somewhere, they get traded, and they’re instantly way more effective. Scenery really really matters.
