Yeah I think it should be locked, depending on the game he is having someone is going to claim they are right.

I think if Paolo keeps his play up and the magic continue to have a winning record he might be an All Star this year.

He is a more skilled young Giannis and a less-skilled, far more agile Jokic. A new basketball creation - created in a lab on Mars to revolutionize NBA offense and crush traditional NBA defensive schemes.

What frustrates is the impatience of people. It's like if players aren't Lebron in year 1 they are worthless. The number of Lebrons or Wembys, (ie guys who come in and it's clear they are probably league MVP's one day) are extremely rare. Most MVPs go the route of Steph Curry who didn't average 20ppg til his 4th year (something Paolo has already done). Or Jokic (also year 4 for 20ppg). Or Giannis (year 4 again). Or Kobe (year 4). The point is, unless you have a once-in-a-generation talent, you aren't likely to see the "him" version of ANYONE until they hit year 4+. Rather than having the final product today, we get the privilege of watching him grow. We should enjoy and appreciate that rather than get frustrated with every down game.

Has anyone heard from P5 since his birthday shenanigans on Sunday?

RookieStar · Post #229 » by **RookieStar** » Mon Nov 13, 2023 8:54 pm

Yeah... we need some receipts of his birthday party. Are they all still alive or anything?

I get kind of frustrated with posters who take any bit of criticism as total hatred.

Let's also not act like there aren't posters on here that wait for 'bad' games so they can come out and remind us how 'player x will never be a star and we should trade them the first chance we get'.

Ah yes, the guy who wanted Chet or Sharpe and thinks P5 is a worse version ("poor man") of Julius Randle isn't hating. Cool, cool cool.
