Paolo Banchero On Truly Wanting To Be Great, The Future of The Magic, Coach K's Last Season and More

Спорт

We're really excited about this week's guest. He's the #1 pick of the 2022 NBA Draft, Orlando Magic guard and leading candidate for Rookie Of The Year, Paolo Banchero. We cover so much in this episode from his wild year at Duke to his first few months of The NBA. Topics include: Being mistaken for Patrick Mahomes, the pressure of playing for Duke during Coach K's final year, the tragedy of losing to UNC, the motivation tactics of Coach K, what motivates Paolo to continue to play with an edge despite all the praise, his draft night experience, the draft night antics of his agent, Mike Miller, what he's learned from his first year in The NBA, his 'Welcome to The NBA' moment featuring Kevin Durant, how impressed he is with his fellow Orlando Magic players Franz Wagner and Bol Bol, where Seattle basketball ranks among other cities, an amazing Jamal Crawford 1-on-1 story and so much more.

I never been to a preseason game at the Amway where it was legit rocking, that happened in P5's first preseason game at home. We were already buzzing with Franz emergence last season, but Paolo kicked it up a notch. Cannot wait to see where this group will be in a few seasons. GO MAGIC!

    Woah. A ring? 3rd round in the playoffs would be great for a lot of small market NBA teams in the past 30 years. Orlando went to the finals 15ish years ago. You can make a long list of marketable superstars that haven't done that. Some teams would love to have that. Nothing is guaranteed with the team, Paolo's development and health, etc. I'm hoping for a second round appearance in the next 2-4 years. That would be success. Anything more than that is both good fortune and good luck with a lot of hard work.

    I always wanted the magic to get a Tatum like player. I thought Tatum would be a superstar when he was a rookie and people were claiming Kyle kuzma was better. I knew that was bs, i could just tell Tatum had that it factor. With that being said, the magic I believe may have gotten something alittle better. He's already better than Tatum was his first two years Stat wise. Plus Tatum wasn't that good of a facilitator until recently. If you remember Boston players like Marcus smart was challenging Tatum and brown to pass more. That was just at the beginning of last season. Whereas paolo is already averaging almost 5 assist a game as a rookie and is getting better monthly. So I think he will end up being a little better than Tatum when it's all said and done. Plus he can do all the things Tatum can do but he's bigger, stronger etc already.

    Great interview but I have to say this. As a Carolina fan that 2022 team is the GREATEST Carolina team in my books. Better than Jordan/worthy, better than the Hansborough teams all of them. Even though we didn't win the chip we got something so much sweeter in ruining that retirement tour. They deserve a banner at chapel hill just based off doing that.

    Well, us Duke fans were just as happy to watch you choke in standard Chapel Hill fashion when it counted most. So the rivalry goes on…
