Hey. This is an old video I had to repost cause copyright reasons. So if anything is outdated, that’s why. Thought now would be a good time to repost tho cause the draft just happened. Anyway, back to regular uploading in a few days🙏🙏
17:31 it's dwight howard ! they were saying he shouldn't of left the lakers then started spamming " kobe kobe kobe kobe " 😂😂😂 just seen this on reels the other day
oh i thought it was the one where a fan was talking to kd and said "i bet you wont drop 81 like kobe" and kd responded with "how much d riding you gonna do"😂
The Onion headline for Jimmy Butler had me literally lol'ing, partly because it is so savage and partly because I can see Butler handing that piece of paper to the TWolves GM.
I can argue that the best #1 pick ever is Tim Duncan. He won the Spurs 5 rings. Lebron won the Cavs a single ring. At least that's how I define the best "draft pick" at each spot, not the best "player" at each spot.
By that logic, Robert Horry is infinitely better than Chuck, Elgin, AI, Malone, Stockton, Payton, Kemp, Carmelo (could go on and on)... I truly think Duncan was a remarkable player, but Bron weighs about the same, is only 2 inches shorter, but plays point, moves (still) EXPONENTIALLY better than Timmy ever did. Bron clears in everything except rim protection and (maybe) post play
@@kevinalamo4250 No, the logic is that when comparing two top 10 guys of all-time, you side with the guy who produced more for the team that made the pick. Is LeBron a better player? Sure. But the Spurs got more out of that pick than the Cavs did.
It would be a list of either completely obvious or unknown players because there's been so few good 2nd round picks. You got Joker, Draymond, Ginoblili, Rodman, and then a steep decline after that.
@@whatever7182dude throughout all of nba history every pick is gonna have a player that was at least decent💀 IT, Dillon brooks, Herb, Jalen brunson, khris middleton
Nah, thaddeus young is so much better than Julius Erving. Even as a sixers fan I think thaddeus young is top 10 all time because of that one statistic. He’s with 4 other top 10 players 3 of which are top 5 meaning thaddeus young is an all time great. 👍
I think theres not a video of Larry Bird getting drafted because he was drafted while still playing in college, they acquired his rights before he was in the league so next year he was automatically a Celtic
🤓well actually bill russell wasnt technically drafted by the st lewis hawks hawks did traded the 2nd pick for boston and then cincinnati had the first pick cincinnati wanted to draft russell too but the celtics owner had a company (idk what the company is i think its ice skating things) and celtics gave them that and cincinnati didnt draft russell
Westbrook averaging a triple-double is the most overrated achievement that's constantly used to sell him as being much better than he was. So much of those numbers, especially in his MVP year, were padded by ball hogging, playing out of position to steal rebounds from his own teammates, playing league high mpg, and embarrassing 1st round exists, because he didn't care about winning nearly as much as getting his. Why do you think nobody wants to play with him? He's selfish, narcissistic, not a winner, and apparently stupid because he was confused by that question which is well known sports trope, and/or too lazy to be a student of the game. Easily one of the most overrated and toxic players of all time.
Imagine if the Raptors drafted Dwyane Wade instead of Bosh. That butterfly effect would change a lot. Maybe LeBron and Wade go to Chicago like they planned. Does Bosh win in Miami? Where does Shaq go from LA? Probably not Toronto. Maybe Wade and Vince Carter win a ring and they do get Shaq and win 2 more
Edit: O feel like Dwade is over KG. An Pierce over Willis because of the era. Klay over Reggie because of the rings. And I'd probably say Kawhai over Giannis, but I like Giannis style of play more. And if Giannis wins another ring it will be him. And Maybe Jrue over Shawn Kemp. Mainly because of Jrue's game series winning steal and lob pass against the suns. And the 2 rings 11:09 The NBA player that infuriates me the most is Carmelo Anthony. The reason is that he was so arrogant and acts likes hes top ten. The fans do the same thing and gas him up. But he has a whopping Zero rings, mvps or anything outside of all NBA teams and Scoring titles. The only reason he is in the hall of fame is because he is a top 10 all time scorer. If it wasn't for that, he probably wouldn't have benn in the hall of fame.
Unpopular opinion, Tim Duncan is the greatest no.1 pick oat, we’re talking about the greatest DRAFT PICK not player, Tim Duncan brought the team that drafted him 5 chips while there was a moment in time where Cleveland fans hated Lebron and he got 4 less championships for the team that drafted him than Duncan while getting the same amount of MVPs for the team who drafted him. If this was the best player at each draft pick of course it’s Lebron, but if we are talking about the greatest DRAFT PICK Tim Duncan gave a lot more value to the team who drafted him than Lebron
So are we gonna skip over the fact that lebron with a much worse roster and system immediately made impact on the cavs? I mean came in and was in the championship 3 years later with that squad. Not only that the hype he had was unmatched and he surpassed it. Demolished all guards and fowards in his position from year 2- now, 1 less championship more mvps and fmvps. You make a great point but if you analyze a lil deeper it’s not much close, only argument can be made is rings here
Tim Duncan entered the League with a former MVP in David Robinson to learn from straight away. Additionally, Tim Duncan was working with one of the greatest coaches of all time in Greg Popovich. LeBron didn't have _anything_ remotely close to that. Additionally, LeBron won 4x FMVPs for each of his 4x Championships, while Tim Duncan "only" had 3x MVPs (which is a lot) on 5x Championships. Swap Duncan and LeBron around in 2007 and I promise you that Cavs team _still_ gets swept. Praising Tim Duncan alone for reaching those 5x championships ignores the extreme difference in competence between the Spurs Front Office - who were able to consistently find solid role players to help Duncan, Ginnobli and Parker - and the Cavs front office who let the Cavs fade into irrelevance between 2010 and 2014 before LeBron re-joined them. In fact, by that logic, MJ shouldn't be the GOAT because of how many times he got his butt kicked in the 1st round before HoF coach, Phil Jackson, and HoF player Scottie Pippen joined the Bulls.🤔
It's not a bad question. Did your team lose or did the enemy team win? He's asking whether Russel's team played badly or if the opposing team played well. People are just too slow.
After watching the video I see that you meant best players drafted at each position but I have a take: Lebron it's the best player drafted an #1, but Tim Duncan is the best #1 pick of all time, because what it meant to the franchise that drafted him. TD changed Spurs franchise history course. They didn't even reach the finals before him and now are know as one of the best teams in the league. He made the "Spurs culture".
1 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Milwaukee Bucks 🦌. He is better than LeBron James. 2 Missing from honorable mentions. Rick Barry, San Francisco Warriors. If you go to a 2nd round, Draymond Green is 1 of the best.
@@jackwichterman-knowles4373 I have seen Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in his peak years. 1 Tougher competition. 2 One of the GOAT 🐐 centers. 3 Larry Bird is better than LeBron James. But Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is better than Larry Bird.
@@odoaiden3525 Yeah I actually meant Second Pick, plus my comment was clearly a joke if you know who Sam Bowie (drafted 1984 before Jordan) and Milicic (complete bust, drafted 2003 before D.Wade Bosh and Melo) are, both of them drafted as a second pick.
Most of the best players are from older generations, yet people think those athletes wouldn’t be able to adjust to todays game smh And in my personal opinion, jrue holiday has easily surpassed Shawn kemp at this point in his career
I get Bill Russell for the 2nd pick, he has the rings and legacy, but KD is the best 2nd pick ever. in terms of just better player, it's pretty clearly KD
How do Jrue Holiday not win for the number 17th pick when he has 2 rings and might get his third soon and is an all defensive juggernaut. I’m telling you Jrue holiday got robbed

Yeah u were
honestly for the 2nd pick I would have gone with james wiseman and for the 7th pick I would have gone killian hayes. But good video overall
Both great picks. And thanks bro
31:00 I think someone by the name of Eva Longoria also maybe might not like Tony Parker
8:50 Bird was only drafted 6th because he was basically a draft-and-stash prospect. He didn’t start playing for the Celtics until ‘79
We def gon need that 2nd round video

I get hes not there yet but SGA should have been an HM for #11

Maybe one day SGA can take the spot for pick 11
Agreed with all but two, I would take Havlacek over Nowitzki, and Jrue over Kemp. I think Jrue's skills are undervalued

What a weird combination of seriousness, comedy and sarcasm
I almost thought you were going to troll with the 1st pick, and show Anthony Bennet instead of Lebron.
The Spurs, Rockets and Dirk 😂
