Breh imagine being talked about like this forever
But as a 17th pick your allowed to live get hoes and work on your game
No issues
Get better and get that next contract
Didn’t scare for the first 10 games?
I don’t remember that???
Would you rather be a NBA number #1 pick or a 17th pick? 🤔🧐 because if you flame 🔥 out you will be a trivia question forever 😳😳😳😳😳😳

Why would anybody want to make a guaranteed ~$9M as the 17th pick (up to $20M) when you get a guaranteed ~$28M (up to $62M) as the #1 pick?
Probably the dumbest(ok dumbest might be too harsh)pick in sports history or at least one of.
I need to see who was all in that draft because ain't no way he should've went #1

If this is your thought process, you're going to flame out and be out of the league in 5 years regardless. Why tf wouldn't I want to be considered the best prospect in the world & make the most money possible? Because Jeff Teague is going to talk about me?

You know how badly run you have to be as a franchise to have 2 back to back #1 picks?
They was lucky on kyrie because he played 11 games and was hurt in college
If kyrie didn’t hit that would have been curtains

That’s on the team that’s picking you
I remember the reaction when he got picked
Bill Simmons was like this on tv
Yep.
That Kyrie pick doesn't happen or it doesn't work out, Bron never comes back to Cleveland and the Cavs are still without a title

#1 pick. I want as much money as possible on that first contract. I wouldn't give a damn about being a trivia question.

Kyrie being a good player was such a gamble the more you think about it
Giannis was the best player in the draft and he went 15th. But the guys taken right after Bennet (Oladipo, Porter Jr) accomplished much more than him too. It was an awful first overall pick

Lol, only a beta would choose to be picked in the middle of 1st round instead of a 1st pick.
1st draft picks get paid more, get to play more minutes and can possibly sign more endorsement deals because there is far more attention centered around you when you are a 1st pick.
Bennett is one of the exceptions because he's one of the worst NBA drafts of all time.
If you happen to be pretty bad in NBA, but you still work hard, you will stay in the league for a few years based off your pick as some teams will trick themselves into believing that you have this potential that just needs a new team to shine at.
If you are not good in NBA as a pick outside of top 10, you will get sent to G league a lot, then most likely cut from the team, then working hard in summer league or whatever, hoping some team signs you to a 2-way contract til you get cut again and end up playing somewhere overseas with 10 thousands of fans screaming racist shyt at you while wondering what went wrong in NBA.

Easily 1st pick because that means the team more than likely is putting stock in you as the franchise player. Being the 17th pick, you’re getting drafted as a role player or project. You may not get as many opportunities as the 1st pick.
