Orlando is building a future juggernaut of a squad. Look out
It's wild how relatively under-the-radar Paolo has gone for a very good ROTY. Idk if it's just because he's on the Magic or what, but dude is a surefire future allstar as a rookie and he doesn't get much hype for it
Its cause Wemby, they always hop on the next dude. Wemby has a higher ceiling but Paolo a much safer pick
Yes it's because he's on Orlando. Tourist town, small market, in Heat's shadow in Florida, etc... AND because of Wemby. So both unfortunately. Paolo seems like a hard worker, joining Team USA was definitely a great move to learn and improve.
People have become accustomed to Orlando getting great talent or possible prospects, them not developing well, playing worse than expected or even just badly before getting traded where they will either play significantly better or fall out the league. Think Aaron Gordon, we'll see about Bol Bol and that remember that Mario Hezonja guy? (Dunked on Giannis, blocked Lebron's gamewinner, fell out the league.)
He honestly isn’t fun to watch imo. I hope he shines, but his playstyle isnt for me
People see his shooting splits and jump to the conclusion that’s he was a shot chucker. If he didn’t play through injury in February, his splits would look quite a bit better.
This upcoming season I’m thinking Paolo will have 24pts/8rbs/5ast on roughly 45-35-80 shooting splits, in a few years he can be easily be at 30pt scorer and an annual MVP candidate. After a decade of disappointment us Magic fans finally have hope with Paolo and Franz.
lmao only a decade? but yeah the young guys looking really strong, i would have never guessed that paolo is 6 10 crazy
@@SteelGlutes Man i have been telling my friends about Paolo since the first game I saw him play. He is the real deal.
You just gonna prepare him for Lakers as usual
I dont see him reaching those numbers quite yet this season tbh, but I think its inevitable, as soon as 2024-2025
@@andreydovbysh7789the magic fans curse
u should talk about old teams that won the chip and how their strategies worked. (EX: 2016 cavs, 2019 raptors, 2021 bucks, 2011 mavs)
I’m so hurt you said old teams and used 2016 cavs 💔
Raptors - injuries but the box and one on curry was very smart on nurse’s end
2016 is an old team? How old are you then?
@devinmartinez7705 i meant teams that aren't together anymore like how kawhii and vnvlleet arent on the raptors anymore. oops🤣🤣🤣🤣
How do you feel like they won
Banchero is one of my fav young players and I am drawn to his ambition playing in fiba
Paolo been a beast. I like the way he plays when I've seen.
That terrible February when he had the neck injury REALLY deflated his 3pt% Im not saying he was a sharpshooter before but he still was at w/e % he ended at....34, 35% after that pitiful 1-35 February. He was basically our PG as a 20 year old rookie for the first 20 or so games too because we had zero guards...By the time Paolo is 24/25 he'll be in the discussion for one of the best in the league.
He finished the season really strong from three. I don't have the numbers in front of me, but for the last month or two he shot more like 40%.
@@rome8180 Yea exactly 100% so that's not something I'm super concerned with. He'll never be Steph from 3 but with everything else he brings he doesn't have to be. He'll shoot a respectable number, he'll get to the line, he'll drain the middy's, and dish it too.
Keep in mind, Blake Griffin is actually shorter than his rookie year’s listed height at 6’9 with a much shorter wingspan than Paolo. He’s a little less athletic than Blake but they have no pretty similar games. Paolo has a higher ceiling and has the ability to be the best player on a championship team and a perennial MVP candidate. His playmaking and 3pt development will make or break his career going forward. The difference will be Blake Griffin or Karl Malone/Charles Barkley type.
WHAT!!!😂😂😂😂😂
@@purpleyranger what?
3pt is a bonus when you’re averaging 7-8FT a game.
This is why I'm excited to watch the Magic next season even if they are good or not, both Paolo and Franz has the potential to be perennial all-stars!
Yeah they should have a good team
You're right but if you're from the central Florida area you should know Orlando will surely get rid of them if they develop to be too good😂
@@youcommenttoomuch just like what happened to Shaq and Dwight, right? Lol
@@edraelsolas838 yes sir lol
@@youcommenttoomuch surely were changed people with jamal mosley and a new gm compared to our disaster gms before, and the exit of devos family is making me hopefully, we learn from those braindead decisions
Paolo is having a great Fiba tournament
He's like a hybrid Carmelo/Blake griffin. Has the potential to become a great Pf/Sf especially if he can guard 1-4
That's crazy, that's exactly the 2 comparisons I see
I was a bit surprised when they subbed out JJJ for Paolo. I thought Paolo played small forward. Well, it turns out he can play center in small ball lineups.
Ugh. He should never play small forward. Strictly a 4/5.
@@rome8180 Try telling him that. He's usually playing small forward even when he isn't supposed to be, because he's a small forward at heart in a power forward's body (when he's not being forced to play center.) Not surprisingly, he idolizes LeBron.
Paolo Banchero has the face of the league potential.
yeah, make a premature call just like Zion and Ja 😂
@@DunningKrugerJnr Do you know what the word 'potential' means? 😐
Paolo is what Ben Simmons was supposed to be.
For a rookie I don't think shooting 34-36% from 3pt is a big deal, his mechanics are pretty solid so hopefully it's something that improves year over year and eventually becomes an elite aspect of his game.
You were correct, 1 summer of work and he’s at 40% on 1 less attempt.
Bam seems to be similar in size. Similar weight, height, and wingspan. Good video like normal.
He's another one!
Great vid. You should make one on Shaedon sharpe. His ceiling is even higher than bancheros
Go magic
Dudes a beast
Go Magic ❤
Been watching him play since his HS days. The 206 is representing well.
I hope Paolo is watching this. What a great analyst. Hope he takes it too the next level which we know he will only 2nd season =)
When Hoop Venue drops, we drop everything and tune in
This kid is going to be phenomenal. He literally saved 3-5 years of the GM/Presidents job in Orlando lol.
Paolo is gonna be a monster his physicality and in the paint and defense feels like old school game he’s gonna be dominate
They act like we never seen Power Forwards like this (Melo,Mashburn,Webber,Glen Rob,J Oneal, etc)early 00’s had a handful of these players like Paolo he reminds me of those players
I love Paolo at the 5. he's hot so much space to work with
I think the magic are gonna surprise ppl this year
Yeah they can take a huge leap, they just gotta stay healthy. Injuries were a big problem for them last year
They started 5-20 last year but were actually a few games over .500 after that. As crazy as it sounds, they really need Markelle Fultz out there to be successful. He helps organize them on offense and provides nice defense at the point of attack. Suggs is improving, but a Suggs-Anthony backcourt just isn't good enough on most nights. If Fultz plays 65+ games, or Anthony Black is ready to contribute right away I could easily see them being a .500 team and falling in the 8-10 range seeding-wise.
Said every Orlando fan for the past decade 😂
I’ve always said paolo is a cross breed of Blake griffin Chris Webber and melo all rolled into one player Webber and griffin for the simple fact he can play above the rim run the offense and hit the midrange jumper melo for the fact paolo doesn’t need much space to get his shot off and he’s a bully down low when he has to just get a bucket he’s already a handful for opponents he’s just gonna get better and better he’s a student of the game wants to learn as much as possible
Where do you get game film to study?
It just depends on what I'm looking for, in the case of this video I pause/rewind/clip as I watch the game live, or re-watch it if I'm unable to make the game times.
He proved me wrong
Ant I believe will be 1 in the league even ahead of guys like luka and Tatum in About 5 yo 6 years
He and Franz are 2 elite wings
Facts, love that pairing
Paolo is people thought Ben Simmons would become
I’ve been tryna tell this to everyone
Paolo is really good, I just wish the magic was somewhat decent in the nba
La lakers drooling on this one waiting for paolos 3rd contract
Paola potential is lebron if he can improve his playmaking and shooting that boy is going to be lethal
He’s 6’11 250lbs and had only 52 dunks all year rookie LeBron had 91 and at his peak 105-145. LeBron way faster, more explosive and better two way upside. Paolo’s upside is Blake Griffin Carmelo mix but slightly taller and not a great dunker like Blake
@@bkelly625 I would want Pailo to develop into a carmelo honestly. He doesn't have the athleticism to be blake or lebron. he has a really bright future no doubt.
@@Mark-oe1df Yea I agree the Blake part is just with the passing ability Carmelo lacked and the strength and ability to play some 5
Great player, future all-star, and all-NBA, All he needs is to improve his FT and 3Pt % to above average, and with his all-around skill, he will dominate the league!
With that size, his knees and ankles are gonna take a beating.
Orlando is such a fun fit for him
Paolo is what Mike Beasley should have been , Paolo more mobile cuz well we fastfowarded 15 yrs and the game is different but they operate in the same areas , go watch college Beasley and you’ll see what i mean
Jaylen Brown your next video Hoop Venue 😤😤😤😤
After watching him play center for Team USA, it's pretty clear he could easily do it in the NBA. He offers plenty of rim protection and rebounding. And it creates a ton of space on offense which is very hard for the other team to guard. It's really too bad he's on a roster like the Magic's. It's going to be hard for him to get a ton of minutes at center. Mosley and the front office both seem to love ultra-big lineups. You've got Wendell Carter there, who is a good player deserving of minutes. But you've also always got a couple of backup bigs. They finally moved on from Mo Bamba and what did they do? Promptly added Bitadze. Mo Wagner is also still there.
I'm just not sure how realistic it is that we see more than token Paolo-at-center minutes any time soon. I'm sure he'll put up numbers at the 4. But I think the key to really unlocking him and making him the engine of an unstoppable offense is playing him at center a bunch. I'm not saying he needs to start there. But I want him playing at least half his minutes there.
100% agree, him and Franz both bring so much potential for lineup flexibility and we didn't see much of it last season.
@@HoopVenueOrlando couldn’t really afford running those type of lineups because of their lack of depth/flexibility last season.
They didn’t have the right personnel to let Paolo play more off-ball and it forced him to rely on setting himself up on the perimeter. Jamahl Mosley has stated that they are going to run much more 5 out this season, so you can expect Paolo to be used as a roll man often!
1/3 of the roster was injured in the first half of the season in 22-23. Mainly Fultz who is by default the Magic’s best playmaking Guard. This season is the first time in almost 3 years we have a complete roster without injury (fingers cross). They already showing their potential with that pre season game win against the pelicans and looked great defensively along with great ball movement lead by Fultz. So to understand truly what Paolo has as far as the roster is concern will be on full display this season baring there I no injury to key players. Magic on the rise.
This makes me feel better as a hornets fan with Brandon miller
Voop Henue, I left my wife and 7 kids to watch this video!
The Magic have to sort out their backcourt.
They played really good with Fultz, hope he can stay healthy!
If they had hand checking how positonless would basketball be
Yeah, this dude is winning atleast 2 chips in his career.
It’s crazy cause Mobley could be the same way but he’s gonna look like more of an anthony Davis if he ever gets the opportunity that p5 does
during paolo rookie year people couldnt stop talking about wemby
KG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KEVIN GARNETTTTTTTTTT
And don’t forget Lebron was 6’9 275 at one point in Miami, and even right now he is easily 260, so don’t forget him, the Lakers have probably the best front court in term of defensive versatility because of them 2 (And of course this season Rui, Vanderbilt, Taurean Prince, Hayes or even Cam Reddish), they have a crazy front court+ Reaves who is one of the best 3rd option you can find in the whole league, especially for Lebron and AD, the fit is amazing and now we have Gabe, who is a much better fit than Shroder, the Lakers are deep this season, no excuses this year.
LeBron's weight through the years judging by how he looked, numerous articles online and some rough estimates:
2004-2005: 240
2006-2007: 250
2008-2010: 260
2011: 280 (the heaviest he's ever gotten to, strongest Bron but was slightly less athletic than his other Heat years)
2012-2014: 270
2015-2017: 250
2018-2019: 260 (played PF most of the time which contributed to the slight weight gain)
2020-2022: 250
2023: 260 (gained weight due to missed time w/ injuries)
Currently: 250 (probably even 240 because he's much skinnier than his 2015 self)

@@johnmarkson1998 and I am, what's your point?
What does any of that have to do with the video? Go spill your Lakers propaganda elsewhere, please.
@@cyrillesu280, damn that’s terrifying
After watching the Nuggets destroy the league, I think sharing the rock is the future. No more this 1 guy putting up 30+ every night only to disappear in the playoff's.
Idk he is that big 6'10 and only 20 imagine Paolo hit that 6'11 or 7' with 280 lbs, i can see another DMC potential hope he can stay healthy for the next 10 yrs.
He laid a dud today against Lithuania
I think Edward’s is next up
Who is Gordy jang?!
Gorgui Dieng lol
to early of an assessment, they havent met good bigman defense like canada or spain
This isn’t about team USA it’s about Paolo
LeBron James is 6’9 250-285 over his time in the league
Another freak of nature!
Hgh
Lebron has never been 285 lol
Banchero build is similar to rookie lebron
Lebron James basically embodies versatility
The fact u haven’t done a reaves vid yet is crazy lol
I want/wanted to, but I've been struggling a ton with the FIBA restrictions, blocking my videos and such. May eventually get to it, we'll see.
Paolo is under the radar because the Orlando media down here is terrible. It's been like that since Shaq left.
After the FIBA I would delete this post. Very underwhelming!
None of these things are revolutions in basketball pace and space goes wayyyy back from 80s showtime to run tmc ….using your big to initiate offense can be seen in 2000s Portland with Arvydas Sabonis and back in the 80s with Boston and Bill Walton..Motion goes back to the Utah teams off the 90s and the plays they run actually are called Princeton motion which was a staple of how they ran offense from the 8os …Paolo comparison is basically Carmelo Anthony in recent times and Bernard King before that
I'm referring to league-wide revolutions, not single instances.
MDA's pace and space changed the way the game is played for everyone, recently every single team started running action through bigs on the perimeter, and the ability to hit cutters is becoming a necessity.
@@HoopVenue cutting off motion off the big man has been a thing since the beginning of ball that's how Wilt led the league in assist the real thing e eryone is chasing is GSW offense with is a variation of the triangle , Larry browns motion offense he used with both Philly and Detriot and the old TMC philosophy which was the copied by Mike Dantoni...what we are about to see in coming years which we've seen the beginning of with both Jokic and Embiid so dominant in the paint is the re-emergence of the big
STOP IT. EVERYONE wantw to be first. His game will dictate where he ends up. We DON'T KNOW if hes got nezt or not. People were saying thr SAME THING about Zion a short while ago....
He doesn't have a 3pt shot. Not yet, at least.
ok
NO.
HE NEXT LOW TIER BLAKE GRIFFIN
Pablo's game kind of reminds me of Carmelo Anthony just a little bit more team oriented
A lot of people make this comparison but I don't think it's a good one. He's a much better passer and defender than Carmelo.
@@rome8180 I agree with that. But he's not as talented in iso and scoring ability. But his style if played the right way will lead to more winning
Chris Webber with better handles.
Perhaps part of the future, but not the future. And Franz Wagner is much better.
now post shooting splits. more importantly 3p%.
I talked about his shooting, there's more to the game than that.
He was playing through a nerve injury in February. His stats during that month tanked his fg% and was a notable outlier in comparison to every other month.
Banchero shot better as a rookie than LBJ or Durant, you know that right?
You really thought you said something relevant LOL.
Aaron Gordon 2.0 possible star. Not superstar
Naw, ANT MAN already got that covered.
I think Ant's got face of the league potential, but I don't see his archetype as something that could change how the game operates.
He's another example of the hyper-athletic, robust scoring SG.
Hopefully the Magic can build a team around him there team management is horrible. They lost Shaq and Dwight already. Don't waste Paulo's carrer.
2:41 that’s a travel, and just an awful missed call.
AD is versatile alright. He has sooooo many outfits to wear when never playing
He'll break out once he's on the Lakers after his rookie contract.
Aaron Gordon like type of player
You're on crack. Go look up some of Gordon's numbers in Orlando when he was "the guy."
With way more on-ball creation potential though, special talent.
Banchero is like a slower, less athletic Lebron, but he has that deceptive speed and great handles for his size, a bit like Doncic, but Julius Randle also fit that description and he is an average player so its one thing to play similar to someone, and one thing to play similar AND be as good as someone .
For exemple Derozan play like MJ or Kobe, he even has the same build, but he is nowear near as good as them, but Kawhi play like MJ or Kobe, and at his peak when he is healthy he can be just as good as them.
And most of the time you can see that « it » factor, and i don’t see it in Paolo, there are so many great young players in the league that i don’t see him becoming even close to the player Lebron or even Doncic is, but i think he can be an ALL STAR level player like a KAT or Julius Randle.
Respect your opinion but I have to disagree. Paolo clearly has 'IT.' He was almost an all star his rookie season (East front court was stacked this season) even though his team was terrible to start the season. Has the respect from the top guys in the league and the refs. He is already as good as Randle and even KAT and he's only 20. And this FIBA experience is really good for him to see just how much he can still improve and learning a new role
Horrible take and comparison
@brandonsingh5083 agreed, from what I've seen (admittedly not a lot of Magic ball) he looks like he has some of the "it factor" that KAT just lacks. Of course we haven't seen him in playoff ball or over years of NBA minutes but he's a very exciting player.
Paolo definitely has IT. Kid thrives in pressure, his college, summer league, nba and fiba debut all showed that without a miss. Once is a coincidence but doing that multiple times isnt. It's even better for fiba cause he's playing out of position, initially looked confused playing center in the scrimmage and showcase games but quickly figured it out. He has it and that it is his high iq, something randle doesnt and something luka, kawhi and jokic has why they figure things and play to their strengths despite lacking elite athleticism or shooting initially. Paolo is only 20, if he's figured things out this quick as a rookie, what more in a few more years.
He has shown enough of that "it" factor for now, and you can see it in FIBA where he's playing out of position and still thriving. Why? Because he was able to adapt.
Paolo has every chance to be a scoring champ and all around good player, thats a top 10 player in the league IMO.
As far as the Lebron comparison, yeah Lebron was more athletic and quicker, but Paolo is bigger and TBH has better footwork than rookie Lebron. Rookie Lebron did not have Paolo's post moves. His footwork is closer to Melo. He's not going to be as good as Lebron, but maybe he can be as good as Melo.
Haha, ur such a US fanboy…a 6’10” big is the future of basketball but his Orlando teammate, a 6’10” point-wing, isn’t? Lololol 😂
I'm also a huge fan of Franz Wagner, and my most recent video is on Canada.
Not sure how you deduced me being a "US fanboy" but to each their own!
No he is not the future of basketball. The saudis will buy all of them just like liv golf.
Na. Dont see it. He will be good. But not THE FUTURE of basketball.
Average player with inconsistent shooting.
yeah lets ignore ledonkey shooting 60% from the FT line almost every season
He's not, terrible analysis
Says the chubby guy who never played ball lol.
