Was there a moment you got ridiculed or downvoted to hell for stating your opinion or prediction at first, but later got vindicated despite the majority disagreeing with you? If you could even share the link to your comment, that would be awesome.

    Me/most other Lakers fans and Alex Caruso.

    The guy’s defense has always passed the eye test with flying colors.

    I, along with many others, thought Luka was the obvious number one overall pick and as sure a bet to be a superstar as anyone who has entered the draft.

    I was on the Giannis hype train since pre-draft.

    I was early on Jokic, but not that early. His second year maybe I was thinking he could be every bit as good as Embiid or Towns.

    I recently got downvoted for saying that Embiid’s game will age well. We’ll see.

    It’s still early in his career, but I think my best call was Jalen Williams. I had him at #6 on my draft board and couldn’t believe he was mocked in the 20s a couple weeks before the draft. I was ecstatic when the Thunder drafted him.

    LaMelo Ball. People on here were literally saying he didn’t even deserve to be drafted and getting upvoted for it. I’ve never seen anything like it. Anything positive about him would get downvoted instantly
