It feels a lot like the argument between DeAndre Ayton and Luka Doncic as the #1 overall pick comes down to generational differences.

It seems the Gen X and Baby Boomer media and scouts prefer the “monster” profile of DeAndre Ayton as the next David Robinson, while Millennials appear to prefer the prospect of oversized point guard ball handler Luka Doncic.

Dave, don’t be such a gen-ist Plenty of young people prefer Ayton and plenty of old people prefer Doncic!

Maybe you’re right. Maybe it’s not generational. Just feels like that to me.
