Had an interesting question on the TNT pregame show. Asked the crew four questions from the GM’s survey:

1. The one player you would start a franchise with?
2. Which rookie this year will be the best in five years?
3. Most athletic player?
4. Game on the line, who takes the last shot?

1. Durant
2. I really hope it is Trae Young or the Hawks screwed up but probably Ayton or Bagley. Young is the boom or bust pick I think. Possible Curry like ability but could just be a volume shooter with good passing.
3. Greek Freak
4. Durant is the correct answer if you like winning

That's shocking to me that 37% picked Durant or Lebron. Surely they weren't really answering the question of which player they'd start a franchise with, but which player they'd start a team with for this year.

Its clear that the question is asking who would be the centerpiece player of a franchise if you could pick any player to start with.
