DLo was a great ball handler, shouldve been the primary besides Bron. Dinshittie and Gabe should just be there for defensive purposes yet Darvin insist on making them shooters. Hachimura and Vando disappeared after that contract extensions lmao
Im sure you recorded this before but I find it amusing that Darvin Ham is now starting to throw players under this bus and make excuses when really its on him. Im really interested on what we are about to do next season
Love the rebuilds, but definitely like the realistic classes from 2025, 2026, and 2027. Maybe you can lower the boom or bust potential of athletes so that you don’t see as much possible superstars to give classes variety. Just a suggestion, but otherwise videos are great 🙂
Dude you still have 1 more season.. You stopped at year 9.. You must have forgot that the rebuild started in the 2024-25 season right? Your 10th season should be the 2033-34 season..
I have a question might be stupid idk I’m from uk we don’t really do nba but has mikey Williams been taken out of downloadable drafts on 2k24 if not maybe you could use n develop him one time 🤷🏾♂️🤝
I saw on instagram that you like the steelers, as do i! How do you feel about the roman wilson pick up? i’m not really to sure how I feel about how effective he will be for us
We dont know what next year’s prospects will be like so it makes sense like for example brandon miller was a projected 2nd rounder at the beginning of the 22 season and ended up being #2
The problem with the user created classes for the upcoming draft are usually pretty good, particularly once you get to March and on. This draft is more wild than we’ve had in a while so it’s still a lot of guess work. The 2025 draft is gonna be a total guessing game beside for the peak top prospects like Cooper F and a few others etc. but that’s fine. The ‘25 and beyond user classes are a joke. Nobody knows much about that class at all. Maybe there’ll be a couple guys who projected to be amazing, but sometimes those guys don’t even pan out. The overalls/potentials are p much always super OP, and it can mess a lot of stuff up. You’ll see 23yo 80ovrs sitting in FA bc nobody has $. At least the default ones, it’s often just 1-2 super good players then it’s pretty balanced. It changes year to year, but I much prefer that to user created years down the line where the T5 guys are all 78-82ovr w near max or max potential…along with a ton of others that end up as low to mid 80s within a few years. It truly does break stuff lol. He could tweak the settings for the auto generated classes in some way. Make them slightly better or whatever…but it seems fine to me. I’d much rather have too few guys that turn in to 85+ overalls within 2-3y max than way too many. Like the 2018 draft, which is a really good one…one of the best as of recent for top talent and depth. There are 3 90+ ovr, 3 85+ (and Ayton shouldn’t be) then 9 80+. Luka and SGA could get to 98-99, Brunson will get to 95+, then Trae will prolly bounce around in the like 87-90 range. JJJr prolly 87 is solid I don’t see him going up or down much. Ayton at 85 will go down to the low 80s eventually, MPJr is likely gonna be around 83-86ish, Mikal 82-85, Simons 82-87 or some huge range just bc he’s so young. Sexton, WCJr, MitchRob, DDV 80-83 likely. TimeLord who knows bc injury but I don’t see him getting too high, then Miles could get to the 80-83ish range. The rest I don’t see cracking 80 unless it’s barely. So there’s basically a few stars and it took a minute for some of them. Then you have a handful of guys in the low 80s who maybe could get to the mid 80s, maybe. The rest will likely end up mid-high 70s, low 80s. Prolly 5, 6 guys max that can ever touch 90. And this is a great draft. 6/60 players are 85+ and it should only be 5, then a couple more may make it tonight around there. 15/60 are 80+, and it’s likely that if a guy hits 80 that wasn’t, someone who was 80 drops out. It’s also been 6 full seasons since this draft, so they’ve had a ton of time to progress. Long post etc…was bored. But if this good of a draft is only producing a few stars, how broken are the user created ones where there’s like 15+ players that end up in the mid 80s or higher, and there’s always numerous 90+ overalls. Sometimes there isn’t a superstar in a draft. But in a user class there are multiple every time. It legitimately messes up the whole sim, like I said you have SOOO many good promising young players asking for piles of money teams can’t afford them and they sit in UFA until some random team somehow picks them up for the min or the MLE lol. It’s just really not a good thing for the videos. Also the auto gen ones are random which adds more variance which is fun. He can maybe improve auto generated draft classes (p sure there’s a slider 0-100) and move it up from 50 to 60 or whatever and try that out. After ‘24 draft and ‘25 draft I prefer auto gen. We have 0 idea who’s gonna be in the 2026 draft and who’ll be good, and where they’ll be picked, etc. Again sorry for the long post. Luka 97, SGA 97, Brunson 93, Trae 89, JJJr 87 Ayton 85, MPJr 84, Mikal 83, Simons 83, Sexton 83, WCJr 82, MitchRob 82, DDV 81, TimeLord 81, Miles 80 GTJr 79, Vando 78, Melton 78, Brown 77, Huerter 76, Lonnie 75
Awesome rebuild as always, Sros! 🐐But I expected to see Cooper Flagg, Ace Bailey, AJ Dybantsa Cam Boozer, and other prospects from the 2025/2026 draft class, in this Lakers rebuild. Next time, I suggest you use a real draft class for the realism of the longer rebuilds instead of an autogenerated draft class.
would love some more personality or insight into you and ur reaction to things in the nba that’s happening in these long videos , like clique productions. Love your work tho just wish we knew matt better
The Lakers need to go into a full rebuild. Let Lebron walk or do a sign and trade, and trade AD too. We've seen what the ceiling is on this team when they have to play a full season and it's at best a 1st round exit in the playoffs. it's time to end the Lebron era in LA which was a mild success. Don't draft Bronny unless it's in the mid to late 2nd round and start the rebuild this offseason.
dlo, dinwiddie, and gabe vincent were unplayable - also tp12 laughing had me in a rage can’t believe another wasted year of bron
The bench was absolutely horrid dlo was too inconsistent and reeves was too passive
DLo was a great ball handler, shouldve been the primary besides Bron. Dinshittie and Gabe should just be there for defensive purposes yet Darvin insist on making them shooters. Hachimura and Vando disappeared after that contract extensions lmao
Ending of game 2 gave me cancer
@@ianmarco1375To be fair, Vanderbilt came back early from injury.
Ham gotta go, Taurean gotta go , DLo gotta go 🤣 they need a Center and AD at the 4
I feel like u should stop using autodrafted classes so early like flagg and boozer are such big prospects
Most of the farther back drafts are really op most of the players have a 80+ potential
Agreed
When doing these long rebuilds they tend to crash when using multiple downloaded rosters…something else 2K doesn’t care about..
Im sure you recorded this before but I find it amusing that Darvin Ham is now starting to throw players under this bus and make excuses when really its on him. Im really interested on what we are about to do next season
And he’s outta there now.. bum coach
Love the rebuilds, but definitely like the realistic classes from 2025, 2026, and 2027. Maybe you can lower the boom or bust potential of athletes so that you don’t see as much possible superstars to give classes variety. Just a suggestion, but otherwise videos are great 🙂
i agree with you
agreed. I always use the auto generated classes after the first seasons. The available draft classes are just too OP in my opinion
I get that a lot of players are OP in the future drafts, but I’d love to see Cooper Flagg & Cam Boozer etc in future videos!
That series could have been 3-2 Lakers up right now, but the Nuggets are too clutch. Murray is another player in the playoffs.
The 10 year rebuild of pain continues
didnt believe in Bronny and then he turned into one of the best players in the league
bronny always does that thats why he didnt keep him
Good dlo Rui the whole trash bench can go the dumbass front office signed 6 guards knowing damn well we need size
With Gabe being injured we had jhs and max playing back up pg we need spencer dinwiddie
That dham staying comment aged well. Rip the whole staff
the term "gentlemans sweep" is said 3-4 times per video lol
1:35 nets jumping to 1 is crazy
The intros are so good man, been watching for so long now glad to see it
The intro can be the start of a mixtape
Thanks again for 10 year rebuild!
Loved this rebuild, My favourite yet Matt!
love these longer videos. I know there probably hard to make or too time consuming but I think the longer videos are always better ❤ Much love
As a die hard lakers fan, time to blow it up! Keep Reaves and Vando ❤
Let's go I needed this thank you Matt.💜💛💜💛
Should of tried to build up bronnys stats and see what you could turn him into 🤷🏻♂️
How do you load go into start today? I thought they got rid of it
Keep up the great work with these videos 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯💯
Can't Blame Glass AD 🤔😭😭😂
The lakers have 3 tradeable firsts this offseason. Looking more likely theyll take the buying route
Dude you still have 1 more season.. You stopped at year 9.. You must have forgot that the rebuild started in the 2024-25 season right?
Your 10th season should be the 2033-34 season..
They said darvin isn’t coming back
Good horrible coach
Luv all the 10 years keep it up
How do you get the top NBA players to shoot realistic splits?
I have been waiting all day for this one 🙂
already said ham is coming back...that lasted long
If we don’t get Trae Young or Kd this summer. we’re cooked
and Caruso needs to come home 😪
Getting stars isnt gonna work
drops the lakers 10 yr rebuild but-not the haws
I highly doubt Ham will be back with the Lakers. There was literally a report that said they're likely to fire him
The fall off HAS to be studied bro. 😵💫
does collier progress like this normally?
Where are you getting your info from Ham is gone
What happened to coopervflag
Should’ve kept Dwight Howard 🤷♂️
I have a question might be stupid idk I’m from uk we don’t really do nba but has mikey Williams been taken out of downloadable drafts on 2k24 if not maybe you could use n develop him one time 🤷🏾♂️🤝
Pelicans Heat Philly are up next😂😂
Do not trade Austin!
Matt why do u forget bronny in that draft class basically becomes Jordan
Build around him if u get him 😂
AD wants to go to the bucks, not the bulls
I can’t see Dlo + 2 for number 1
Darvin most likely won’t be back 🙏
Davin ham is fired
W vid and W intro
Jacobi Walter rebuild?
please do a devin booker to NY knicks rebuild
no pels rebuild🙄? they lost first.....
Move AD back to PF and go get Howard and get rid off DLo
I saw on instagram that you like the steelers, as do i! How do you feel about the roman wilson pick up? i’m not really to sure how I feel about how effective he will be for us
They need WRs so hoping he can be a good #3 for them
Thanks for this
Fire Darvin ham
🤍💜💛
Use created draft classes for longer in these long rebuilds, the auto generated players are really lame most of the time
We dont know what next year’s prospects will be like so it makes sense like for example brandon miller was a projected 2nd rounder at the beginning of the 22 season and ended up being #2
Those later ones are ridiculous with the player potentials

Yo
Terrible draft class
I strongly believe that if the nuggets weren’t in the west the lakers would have walked through everybody in the west
