Walker Kessler blocks more shots. Chet is a better shooter, finisher, passer, ball handler, rebounder, ball screen defender and he's 8 months younger. In case nobody noticed.

To put one of your points in other words Kessler is lessler.

I hope Weltham is on the phone right now with OKC and they really want Chet the Stickboy. 2 + 12 for #1 really floats my boat! I'd even give up the lessor of or 2nds to make that happen!~

I wouldn’t expect for us to make a trade until draft night unless it’s for the #2. You don’t trade the #1 unless you know your guy is there at #3 or #4.

If Houston really wants Chet, and they draft Banchero and Agbaji, I'd do that trade alone with a future unprotected 1st.

One thing I will say is I do trust or front office judgement, so who ever they pick I believe they liked what they saw

FYI - I’m reading OKC forums. No one is wanting Chet bad enough over the other 2 to trade the #12 pick. 

With that being said… I’m open to trading Cole for that #12 pick as part of the package.

Exactly, However, I am really intrigued by the combonation of WCJ at the 4 and Chet at the 5 with his skillsets! Just a thought.

Hard to not be excited about the first pick for the first time in 18 years! Only 3 times in team history and all 3 of those players have played in the NBA finals in a Magic jersey. We have so many assets right now, it’s hard not to believe a trade is likely

Didn’t we get not only Hardaway but 3 first round future draft picks ?

Chet the stickboy is going to get broken and crushed in the NBA

Just push those thoughts out. Hehe we don’t need negativity. Lol

Regardless of who we draft, getting the chance to pick first makes this crap season worth it.
