The #1 Pick Nobody Talks About
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 มี.ค. 2024
- Less than two years ago the Magic used the first pick in the 2022 NBA draft to select Paolo Banchero out of Duke. We weren't fans of this pick and the time and one of the first videos we ever uploaded was about why the Magic shouldn't draft Banchero. Ever since that moment he has continued to prove us wrong so we decided to take a look about why nobody is talking about Paolo Banchero.

I can't believe blazers fans who have a "greatest teams not to win a title" series haven't made a video about the 2000 blazers
Have to nail down the formula before you take on the magnum opus.
Prolly too painful for them and hurts Portland's reputation
Or the 1992 trailblazers
It’s crazy both of these blazer teams lost to some greatest team in the history of basketball
I mean they made a 2 hour video about dame after he left them@@nabster9253
I actually am happy for Paolo that he isn't getting too much hype on him - just quietly developing and getting better on a building team. That's how it was with Jokic too.
how can u compare a 1st pick with the 40th pick ? Kinda obvious Jokic didnt get much attention back then
so the opposite of jordan poole and austin reeves. good call
@@eltrollo7293 Well, hype isn't just about pick spot now, is it? Jokic was on a relatively quiet team. For instance, I can't recall Austin Reaves' draft spot, but, I'm sure it was quite low (if he even got drafted at all). But, given that he's on the Lakers, playing with LBJ, he gets significantly more hype than Paolo.
And all I'm saying is, it IS good for Paolo. At least, till he becomes an undeniable winner...like - you guessed it - Jokic.
@@AFO_AnalyRicsPaolo won ROTY and was the 1st pick btw , he already got much more attention
@@eltrollo7293 Happy reading.
Going 11 years without a TV game is literally insane. I've never heard that before.
Oh yea magic gets no love we have Disney world and still we get shafted 😂😂😂
@@Frosty1026wtf does disney world have to do with it
@@DGlaky Disney literally owns ESPN and magic hardly get on there you’d think a team sponsored by Disney like legitimately would get more prime spots especially since they’re winning a lot of games
Is that the longest an nba team has gone
He’s the first in 11 years to not have a tv game not 11 years without
Paolo is underrated, no one talks about him when they mention the nba’s “next generation”
He's great but other young stars just have a larger personality. That "aura" is real.
@@mod7065No, he's like LeBron without media hype and coverage that's why he needs to do great things this upcoming playoffs to get recognize, if you watch Magic games he has that mentality to take over games.
I’m calling it right now in The Orlando Magic are fixing to have a magical year they’re fixing to win the NBA championship this year play that song
Finally a Paolo video, very few have averaged 20 in their rookie year and even fewer have made the playoffs with a #1 pick lottery team by the second season he’s on a All-NBA trajectory
This channel is so underrated
It has been underrated for the past 5 months i think!!
Fr
Fr bro
The people that watch, watch all the videos. I think that’s powerful enough
I agree I love these guys and the way they make their vids
Paolo was definitely the best choice Magic could make, He can definitely become a 1st option for a championship calibre in the future. Chet, although very good is more of a second option
Exactly. Big midrange jumpers or slashing layups or free throws. Solid first option.
It’s actually funny because we have quite a huge attention on the magic in Germany because of Franz and Moe
And in Michigan! lol
Magic should get Dennis Schroeder
And harenstein if he decides to chase the bag
I'm still mad at him for choosing USA after promising he'd play for Italy, but as a player it can't be denied he is doing amazing
🤓🤓 i’m pretty sure he’s sad because some guy on the internet isny happy about his decision 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
that's such a dumb comment XD@@3rr1k_
He was a teenager when he “promised” that. It’s not that crazy a teenager changed their mind on a big decision like that lol
It’s unfortunate, because Wemby got all the hype, and overshadowed him
It may have been a blessing in disguise. I think that hype sometimes adds undue pressure on young players. Players - even great players need time to grow and develop in the NBA.
As a lifelong Orlando resident, and diehard magic fan. Thanks for the video. Our team is so exciting to watch and has so much heart. We are always overlooked! But our future finally looks bright.
Yes. This team has the heart of the heart & hustle team with the development potential of the two Finals teams.
To me one of the reasons why he doesn't get talked about is because of Victor. Not saying he doesn't deserve it but they talk about him way too much in my opinion
Yeah, the business side supersedes the on-court product often in the NBA.
The Spurs have been nationally televised countless times this season. And that’s a team with less than 30 victories.
Lebron is retiring soon, so the league is prepping him as the face-of-the league player.
It’s probably easier to turn a slasher into a shooter than a shooter into a slasher. If Paolo puts in the work, he’ll be great for awhile
It's easy to guard slashers that cant shoot good since paolo is developing a 3pt shot his game is going to open up a new level for him teams will have to respect his shooting,
Well Paolo isn’t a slasher. Not sure how they came to that conclusion. Well I do, they haven’t watched many Magic games since the team hasn’t been nationally televised for the most part.
Thank you again, Ik I commented twice but finally someone giving the team and Paolo some flowers
As a fan born and raised in the city, this is finally giving us some hope since Dwight Howard who everyone forgets that era happened
Hopefully Banchero can shock the world, if we can get passed the 1st round, I’d be happy bc this team is young, still inexperienced but a ton of potential
We just gotta add shooting and a true PG to space out the floor, we’re gonna be tough in the next few yrs!
Go Magic!
I find it crazy that he went to high school at O’dea which is 4 blocks away from my school. Which is nuts.
I am not even a Magic fan but Ive watched a lot of their games he really became one of my favorite players I love how he plays
i really like his game and how he plays, wouldn't be surprised if he was top 10 player some day
Man i love this channel, you and jxmyhighroller are the goats of Nba content.
I love the detail of having the video time and date of whatever clip is being shown in the corner, it’s a small thing but I feel like it really adds personality to the videos
I like how you incorporate Wrestling memes/themes in your videos. I like dat Roman reigns outro in the end.
We need a March madness video of yalls brackets
The single-greatest development in Paolo’s game has come at the expense of Fultz.
When Fultz was out for 28 consecutive games Paolo was asked to become the facilitator and he now leads them in assists every single game. Mark that event as the turning point in the ceiling of Paolo’s true ability when you look back in a couple of years.
It would be fair to say that P5 was an average at best defender his rookie season.
Every aspect of his game has improved and it appears that Franz and Suggs are the likely driving force behind Paolo legitimately becoming a good defender in such a short time.
Same with his crunch time performance rookie season versus this season it’s night and day. The Wagner brothers/Team Germany and that Gold medal show that they win and Suggs has that same unwavering relentlessness and it has undoubtedly inspired Paolo to become his absolute best.
Whoa! I made the Portlando logo for the Trailblazers sub on Reddit hahaha! Imagine my surprise seeing it on here! This is awesome! Small market teams gotta stick together!! Love the video, I'm a huge Orlando Magic fan. I'm hoping they can chase down that #3 spot in the playoffs. They have a legitimate shot at it and could host two playoffs series at home. What a turnaround for the Magic.
Why talk about him when we could talk about Wembanyama! Look! He's tall! 😯 😯
This channel is gonna blow up big time!
Glad to see you made a vid about CADE!
love this channel 🔥🔥
i love being early. can’t wait for this channel to have over 1 MILLION subscribers.
This is probably one of the best basketball channels out there if not THE BEST 💯👌🏽💯
it actually was a utah reporter who voted for kessler and after all the backlash, he still tried to justify it with graphs and stuff
Love this channel and super underrated, but can ya'll make a video on my Pels, been sneaking under the radar all year.
Thank you for this video, Go Magic ❤️💙
8:25 thank you for this. My first year following the NBA was 2008, then the year after that we had the 2009 finals run (I was in 5th grade at the time). We magic fans refer to the years between Dwight Howard and now as the dark years. Even those years with vooch where we made the playoffs we knew our ceiling was 8 seed at best and we needed to blow it up, and we did and it finally feels like we have something to get excited about.
I’m not a Magic fan, but the first thing I do when they win is sing the Orlando Magic song.
Thank you guys being a guy born and raised in central Florida and serving in the military in Seattle and watching banchero at O’Dea high school this feels like a full circle ending for my magic play that song 🎧
Been a Magic fan for years, Paolo will lead us to the promise land 🙏🏻
Its wild how things went down.. Usually theres a clear cut one and that team drafting usually gets what we felt at the time was the best player.. And teams really wanna nail this pick so the pressure is on and just the feeling having the first overall pick u wanna get a franchise piece obviously not all 1sts do that but thats like bare mininal expectation first overall pick always gets .. There really was no clear cut first pick at the time and having the first overall pick u wanna get the best player and not 76ers it and having the forsight to snag a real franchise guy and the guy in the draft ..well done ..
I was able to watch him live and as 76sers fan I was impressed surprise he doesn’t get as much exposure as the leagues other rising talents.
Still waiting on the Yao Ming vid from yall
Scooter would be very happy that the Magic has found their guy.
he’s a unicorn. he can play 1-5, defend 1-5, score at a high clip and facilitate enough to help win/change team culture.
No, he can’t defend 1-5. His defense is marginal-and that’s being nice.
As a magic fan, our fan base is huge here in florida, tbh and we've been waiting for this
As someone who grew up most of his life in Orlando and had nothing but shit teams was there for the Howard finals run that was the highlight of a fan in my era lol. This team has been a breathe of fresh air I’m a cavs fan since I’ve moved to CLE I love the sports energy in this town compared to back home. But it’s great to see them have a team with a bright future
THANK YOU! We get no love over here in the O
No love at all. National media literally ignores this team.
Maaan I’ve been telling my people that this guy is good and he’s only get better. As a Heat fan, I wish he was on our team, him and Bam would be a lethal defensive duo, but I’m glad he is doing well with the Magicand hope they continue to grow.
Been a magic fan for a whole decade now and we are finally headed in the right direction 😭 our draft picks have been solid and this year everything is coming together, we finally have a bright future
Really happy with Banchero, I always loved the pick and had hopes that he would turn out like this. This is only the beginning fr 🤘
Banchero is actually one of my favorite young players
As a magic fan THANKKK you making this video. Perfectly encapsulates magic fans frustration with how P5 is treated
Still wont forget how the media so sure that jabari smith was going number 1 lol
You guys touched on the draft, the magic were actually trying to do the Tatum thing by telling everyone they wanted Jabari and trying to get OKC or Houston to trade up, didn’t work but they executed the plan beautifully, literally everyone thought they were taking Jabari including Jabari and Paolo
the thing is paolo is better than most guys like wemby and luka as a team player, theres a reason the magic stay consistent in 4-5 seed because hes so easy to build around
How did y'all not think Paolo game would transfer? He was literally the most polished player coming out of the draft. The concerns were his ceiling not his floor lol
and shout out to the 6th man show i see the clips Orlando fans know
i know this isn’t the most relevant thing but i’m doing an orlando magic online myleague mycareer with my homie and it shocks me that paolo only has an 88 or 89 potential. like they don’t respect him at all
Been slacking on y’all’s vids lately, about to start a re-cap 😎
HOLY SHIT A MAGIC VIDEO 💪🏿play that song
Find it hard to believe that dudes from the PNW were hating on a dude from the PNW.
I grew up playing this guy in aau and highschool and everybody knew this guy was gonna do that. He made a big jump his junior year from a amazing back to the basket guy to just an incredible all around player (and playmaker)
I’ve been what I can only describe as “the Magic version of you two” where I’ve gone to the games down at orange blossom, I’ve been there during the Dwight era, the vooch era, and I’m loving this new banchero wagner era
Best young core since shaq and penny
The nba media for some reason has decided to forget that the Orlando magic exists we get no coverage even tho we’re good now it’s just confusing to me and we’re not in a small market we’re in sunny Florida like wtf is wrong the league should be marketing the hell out of us but nooo they’d rather even market OKLAHOMA over us
Orlando is a small market. Miami is a bigger market. Just sayin’.
@@AndyKapp we are still in Florida sunny Florida there is no reason a team in Oklahoma should be getting more attention than us other than they’re more successful than us
Very cool video. Love the attention that EVERYONE seems to ignore. It is quite refreshing to hear someone else represent for the Magic. Thanks bro! #GoMagic #BeenHereSince89
And now I wanna root for the magic also!
As a magic fan, thank you! Tired of the disrespect he gets
Orlando had a flexed Espn game against Charlotte in 2019. Still crazy they got only 1 this year.
I would actually say Cade Cunningham is the least talked about first pick, Paolo was getting a lot of hype this year due to how good he’s played and how surprisingly good the Magic have been also he was an all-star this year so he’s clearly not underrated. Cade on the other hand is rarely talked about at all, I would go as far to say we hear more about Deandre Ayton and his play/antics more than anything impressive that Cade Cunningham does.
It's because people barely talk about the pistons in general. Because of how ass they were, and how well Cade played to try keep them in games, whenever content about the modern pistons comes out, people talk about freeing Cade from that cursed franchise.
That's cuz the pistons are ass
Love your channel
My "conspiracy" theory is that he wasn't accepted as the best talent from that draft class (a lot preferred Chet, which I can understand, but to have Jabari over Paolo I can never understand), and so people are still holding that against him. It sounds stupid but legit people from the scouting community hold on to their prior evaluations for a while and do not like to be wrong. Paolo will be a top ten player in the league one day, he's that good. He also has a clutch gene and lives for the moment.
“Can a slasher be best player on a a contender” gotta remember Giannas
And LeBron, Derrick rose ,ja morant, zion the list goes on they obviously don't know what they talking about. Lol
I was hype on Paolo since the day he was drafted just because i liked his name, knew nothing about his game. And i am still hype of him to this day because of his name and game.
#GuruBasketballKieroSays Paolo has "face of NBA" potential
As a Magic fan, we have to become undeniable. Keep winning until the league has no other choice but to market us and pundits have to at least give us lip service. Small market teams have it very tough, but sometimes things just don't tilt in your favor unless you produce results that no one can dismiss. That's what the Magic are doing this season and it's only up from there for the foreseeable future. Here's to hoping it can net us more national games so fans can discover that Orlando does in fact, have a professional basketball team.
PAOLO PROPAGENDA I LOVE IT🔥
It’s ok we will see yall in the playoffs #playoursong
Can’t believe they only have 60k they at least deserve 500k
As someone living in AZ, im glad Magic dont have national televised games because i get to watch all their games on NBA league pass. 🏀😎
Gonna say I’m proud to have picked Paolo as my favorite of the draft…but Chet is doing great too. Ivey will be nice when his efficiency stabilizes
If your in a small market & had a bad season the year before, you're not gonna get national tv games the next season. But next season they'll have a few more. That's just how it is. To be honest they are lucky they are under the radar bc the moment they aren't is the moment they can't sneak up on ppl. They get a chance to develop w/o expectations
Man these dudes were my fav nba content creators. Bruh your take on Paolo is amateur, get you don’t get to ever watch him, but yeah he’s built for the nba, todays nba. 37% from 3 is all you can ask for from a Pitt bull. That’s good enough, even for today’s nba. I don’t see Lebron droppin 40% from 3. I also just don’t see how you guys have Lebron as the goat. Anyone who sits down for a Jordan history lesson can dispute he’s the GOAT. Btw children, guys shot 40% from 3 in the 90s too, and if the game was predicated on 3’s back then you’d see the same shooting ability displayed as today
The Magic are good this yea and the rebuild is going well
Paolo deserved the number one pick and he definitely needs more praise in general
Thank God you guys aren't gm's
Paolo and the Magic have a bright future ahead of them. Just a couple pieces away from potentially contending.
meanwhile espn is broadcasting wall-to-wall live coverage of LeBron's left toenail and its impact on his legacy
They don’t talk about Paolo because of Wemby. The media pushing wemby to be the face of the league after LeBron. Not saying wemby doesn’t deserve it but Banchero been living up to the #1 pick too but the media don’t hype him up because they want to promote Victor.
Paolo is no joke
us magic fans deserved this for being loyal to the O for so long!
i hear about him decently often. i can’t remember the last time i heard anyone talk about markelle fultz - that’s much more of a forgotten number 1 pick in my mind. massive bust, but doesn’t get clowned on particularly often for it (not that he ‘deserves’ that or anything, just relative to nba discourse you’d think it would happen more frequently)
I think that it's because a lot of people realize that he was thrust into a tough spot right out of the gate. Being drafted to a franchise that already had two young potential (super)stars was a lot of pressure. Combine that pressure with the strange shoulder issue and the training staff messing with his shot, and it was a recipe for disaster. He's found a nice niche in Orlando, so that's the important thing.
I can say the same about the pelicans although they had this expectation
To say Julius Randle isn't a player you see anymore when he's literally still playing and well is crazy
Yeah, that made no sense. Not sure how much basketball these guys actually watch.
@AndyKapp yea I think I understand what they were trying to say...but they're wrong if anything a midrange/slashing player has more room to flourish in a well spaced nba that's how sga play
Can we get a video on jabari smith jr really don’t hear anything about him
They hating on my boy, 2nd year allstar
Paolo is one of the few guys outside of my own team I will absolutely glaze
Interesting thing to admit but okay
I've been a fan since the first game he played at the beginning of last season and everyone I'll talk about to was saying stuff like it's not all that crazy and look at him now
What about DeAndre ayton
Banchero is what Bennett was supposed to be. Shock number 1. Then because even he didnt believe he was supposed to be number 1, worked his behind off and now he's an all star in his second year. Even Chet and Jalen can't say that - Magic hit home run
Unnderated
Just got lost in the Wemby hype
Paolo Banchero's playing style is really mature
Magic fans we waited a long fuckin time for this. Lets enjoy it.
I was getting ready for him to get picked up by the Rockets 🥲🥲
You're the only one not talking about him, everybody I know is talking about him
I really feel like Banchero, Holmgren, and Jabari Smith all equally had the chance to be the number one overall pick.
