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.

I remember a lot of people from the nba draft subreddit were higher on Vassell than majority of the class. I think a good amount even considered drafting him 1st because of his guaranteed skillset. Shocked he fell as far as he did.

Lot of people had Halliburton in the top 5. When he feel out the top 10 I was like wtf

Lol, who on earth was considering drafting Vassell 1st that year?

Nba draft subreddit does a lot of polls around draft time. Vassell was around the top of them consistently. The majority wasn't sold on Edwards, Lamelo or Wiseman. Some even considered Killan Hayes. You laugh now but nobody knew with that draft.
