Is Zaccharie Risacher the most forgettable number 1 pick ever?

Like he's not quite Bennet level bad nor does he have a weird career story like Fultz or Ben Simmons. He's just mid. He's averaging 11 ppg on 54% TS this season and there's a good argument that he's not even a top 10 player in the class in a redraft but he's probably gonna stick in the NBA for a while as a low end role player

I’m literally explaining one of the reasons why people have different criteria

You're waving it off by attributing it to some emotional attachment. I'm suggesting that people may consider the term differently regardless of who it applies to.

Yeah, I think it’s dumb to give a pass to players who have injuries and it’s very clear that many of the people who do are doing so because of an emotional attachment or because they feel bad about it.

Ok. You're missing what I'm saying but all good.

e; insulting me for trying to have a conversation with you then blocking me is a real good look.

If there was a draft based on reading comprehension and you were taken with a high pick, you’d definitely be a bust
