Was I the only one that thought MCW was going to be traded when the sixers took Payton ?

You couldn’t have been, because he thought the same thing.

I at first thought this would be the case for about 5 seconds, then I realized that Payton is 6’3, and MCW is 6’6. So MCW is big enough that he can also play 2 and not be picked apart by opponents. So no problem, thus no MCW trade will happen. Then Payton got traded instead to the Magic which I also thought would happen at the same time that Payton went 10th since the Magic got a PF at 4 with Gordon. (Who I think the Jazz had a promise to at 5, and then here’s another interesting thing, The Jazz were rumored to have a promise to Jordan Adams at 23, and he actually 22 instead! That’s kind of weird, but I don’t think its too weird, happens alot in a lot of drafts). Again, no problem that Payton was traded instead, MCW goes back to playing the point.
