Every time Booker pulls up I see Hezonja’s face. Every floater sears my soul. Booker pulled up from 30ft while double teamed last night, what tf was Super Mario doing last night?! Not that.
This draft doomed us for years and I feel like we don’t talk about this enough. Just one of the many Magic draft debacle’s …I just need 5 minutes with Hennigan, maybe even four 😤.
Was this the most egregious Draft misstep in Magic history? Speak on it.
Also thank you Basketball gods for Paolo & Franz 🙏

Dude it was 8 years ago. Everyone knows Hennigan sucked. We’ve moved on. We really don’t need to talk about it.
By “we”, do you mean all 12 teams that didn’t pick him?
Ummm did we take Mario with the fifth pick when everyone was saying we should take Devin Booker? Misses happen and one of the reasons teams get stuck being mid level for years on end. Much more at play than this one pick.
Nobody was talking about him going top 5 except Devin Booker himself back then. I still hated the pick but because I was in the Justise Winslow camp. Hindsight is always 20/20.
