frick his dad, but I think he is gonna end up being a very solid NBA player

I don't think he'll be great, but he'll be good. But you know what, no one knows if he'll be worth a shite or not, but we do know what Jimmy Butler can do, and if we can get Jimmy Butler, it would be beyond stupid to make the pick over Butler. We dont' have 4-5 years to wait for the pick to elevate us in the playoffs, and we don't even know if they'll be that good.
The fact that no one knows who the #1 pick will be, usually says that those top guys really aren't all that great.
We knew Simmons was #1
We knew Kat was #1
We didn't know Wiggins was #1, and that class was touted as having several future stars. Wiggins will very likely end up being a superstar, but the 2nd round pick Jokic is getting the most headlines now, and no one from that class has made an all star team in their first 3 years, and doesn't look like anyone will in the near future, unless Wiggins or Jokic move to the East.
We didn't know Bennett was #1
We knew AD was #1
We knew Kryie was #1
We knew John Wall was #1
We knew Blake Griffin was #1
We knew Derrick Rose was #1

None of those #1 picks led shitty teams in college either, like Fultz did. We all know about Simmons, but I think most people know why they were shitty, even though they were good enough to at least make the NIT.
