. When will teams and GMs learn not to trust the ESPN hype train?
I'm not usually 100%positive about things on this board because alot of our discussions are opinions,but I can tell you this,that statement is wrong.
Gms don't give one frick about espn hype. Just go look at certain picks over the years for confirmation. Think Bennett and the guy jordan drafted.
All the players you named showed a ton of potential. Simmons may have showed more potential than anyone recently. Just imagine if he developed a jumper like he should have by now. Aytons a great player.fultz had a weird injury and even weirder reaction to said injury. All the players you named are at minimum good starters

A lot of people thought Ben Simmons was going to be some version of Lebron James or the potential was there. Not GOAT worthy projection or anything but they thought he could play the same way as a devastating point forward. That’s why he went #1. Problem is his offensive game peaked at age 17. He also shoots with the wrong hand.
