No one would be sorry to play this young man. We watched him play at CSU for years. Being 6' certainly is an issue in NBA but he has speed, tenacity, confidence and most of all great character. His work ethic is outstanding and was always a natural leader and an asset to the team. Even on an off night he was very unselfish and made sure to help the team. Coach Medved taught him so much and cared about him for a reason. Please give this young man a chance!
I watched him at Colorado St for years. Awesome player; strong leader, great young man. His eye-catching play to start the summer league is not a fluke. Very intelligent player, unbelievable ball placement on his assists. I hope he has a great career in the NBA.
I dont know why they signed him in the first place. maybe they promised Smith just like they promised Josh Richardson when he leaved miami in the past.
Someone on five reasons said he was one of the best players in all of ncaa, but he’s 5’11”. I had an eye out, and he’s totally surprising expectations. He sounded like a very thoughtful, intelligent person in the one post game interview I watched. I like Pullin’s game a lot too, but so far Isaiah is shining a little brighter. Hope we keep both.
Finally somebody is talking about this kid. I agree with you 100 %, for me is the best prospect I haveseen on the summer league team by far. Very good paser, quick, good defender and hardly miss a shot or free throw. The only downside is his hight, but I will rather have him than Dru Smith
This summer league squad is the most fun I’ve had watching the Heat since we beat the Celtics in 23. I love the way these guys play. The athleticism, the pace, THE DUNKS, the aggression on both ends. It was good to see Jaime lead and just dominate too,
I just love the energy. You can tell these guys are becoming good friends and enjoying this. It’s exciting, special even. When Keshad slammed the shit out of the ball before the buzzer you can see Jaime flexing and screaming for him, the bench going nuts…I love that shit. I’m so torn on this team, cause Jimmy is by far my favorite player, and I’m a Heat fan because of him. But I also kind of really want and think it’s probably best to just go young now. On a side note, I actually think Herro would be a much better fit with these guys than he is with Jimmy and co. And probably wouldn’t feel so desperate to move him if we did go young.
I actually know Isaiah. He was teammates in high school and he’s always been this good. He’s always gave me the vibe of a CP3 type of players. He can get buckets and he’s an amazing playmaker.
You are one of the few, as far as can remember, who's displayed any analytical ability from when everybody wanted wanted to get rid of the Heat management
Hola Ant. I was high on Stevens the night Pat scooped him up as a UDFA after I was down on losing Tyler Kolek to the Knicks. Saw his highlights and was impressed with him having records in points, assists and 3PM. Both equally impressive true PG's. Look forward to each representing their respective teams for many years to come. Isaiah ("50 Cents" cause of jersey # 👍) is the best UDFA we got and Johnson and Pullin are not chopped liver. I will give him an edge over Larsson. Equal to Ware. Great job on making this video. You truly are ahead of the curve on this one. ✌️PS: Watch out for Josh Christopher.
@@MaxCamacho appreciate the well thought out comment. It’s funny you brought up Tyler Kolek, because I was just thinking about him too. I was sad when the Knicks took him but after seeing Stevens play, I honestly couldn’t care less about Kolek anymore 😂
@@anthonyd_heat You got it amigo. I don't foresee not supporting Kolek because I touted him for weeks before the draft. I was really hoping the Heat would get him. Maybe not at 16 but I wouldn't mind. Will enjoy his passing from afar but will not root for the Knicks. God what a conundrum. But what a consolation prize in my view with Stevens. Never imagined it would happen. Never knew he existed. A complete home run on the Heat scouting this kid. I don't think many Heat fans know the gravity of what he will bring to the Heat. Passing we haven't seen since Dwyane Wade. I look forward to Ware, Stevens, Bam, and Triple J give us highlight after highlight for a long time to come. And look forward to your videos in the process. Keep rocking. 👍
It's to bad that Stevens is 6'0" everybody wants 6'9" PG's the Heat could use a quick guard like him on the floor to get the offense moving faster and get the easy baskets with his assists. Washington has some good handles.
@Wilcoranking Lowry signing was a mistake to begin with. And yes I was not in favor of them giving up a 1st round pick to unload Lowry. Riley was delusional to think they were one player away to win a Championship.
I know the trend has certainly been (since Magic came into the NBA) for teams to look for that GOLDEN GOOSE, a Point Guard the size of a Power Forward. We actually came up with the term Point Forward to describe it. Yet, there's a reason so many very successful point guards, and guards in general, have been shorter, many as short as Isaiah Stevens is. Because they're on a different plane, sight-wise, than taller players (just as those taller players are on a different sight-line and can see things those shorter players can't). These differences can create advantages throughout games, especially combined with the fact most shorter players tend to be quicker players, with greater initial bursts of speed. Isaiah Stevens has learned to thoroughly take advantage of these 'mismatches' (or, differences in perception, sight-line, and bursts of speed) to adequately compensate and SUCCEED in basketball.
I think you hit the nail on the head, man. Get rid of Drew Smith and sign Isiah Stephens. He's a more rounded player who will help the heat. The guy is firing on all cylinders and that's what Miami needs right now. Too much of Jimmy down, the whole team down. WE ARE TIRED OF IT. JIMMY NEEDS HELP.
C'mon brother , Isaiah Stevens is maybe an inch shorter than Rod Dillingham ! So scratch that nonsense , height didn't have anything to do with , why Stevens wasn't drafted . Why not compare Stevens to Sheppard and Dillingham and see what exactly why they were better prospects than Stevens .
He is a real point guard. The offense looks soo much better with him behind the wheel. We needed a backup pg for years!
Well said

Show your like for Isaiah Stevens heat lifers. We've found an elite passer
Indeed
Bring Josh Christopher and Isaiah Stevens and wave Drue Smith! Lets go! 🔥
That would be a good move.
I’m with it
I dont know why they signed him in the first place. maybe they promised Smith just like they promised Josh Richardson when he leaved miami in the past.
FACTS!!!!!!

I heard some interviews too after I posted this. Really love what he brings to the table
ISAIAH STEEEEEVENSSS!!!💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Well said. And even though he’s small, he’s a pest on defense. I should’ve talked about that more in the video

Love to hear this
I went to CSU and watched him his entire time. Y’all getting Point God
if you add stevens,this draft class has to be one for the ages,pat & the fo really outdid themselves
I agree with this
You are one of the few, as far as can remember, who's displayed any analytical ability from when everybody wanted wanted to get rid of the Heat management
Imagine this Summer league starting 5 being our bench!
Could be worse

Ayyy Similar Minds 0:47 appreciate the shoutout brother ant … can’t wait to collab appreciate your content
Appreciate you tuning in as always bro!
on point and smooth passes. we need him
Smoothhhhh passes
Yes very impressive. Heat should signed him now.
Need him on a standard deal
They don't have room to sign him just yet
"And I have no handle" lmao
I love this guy
Film exists out there so I can’t lie 😂😂
@@anthonyd_heat I wasn't gonna say nun lol
Isaiah Stevens is a better PG the Dru Smith and should get that 2 way contact
Yeah I wanna Keep Him and Pullin
Bruh good call watching I was thinking the kid is slick makes everyone on the court better
He really does!
Isaiah Stevens reminds me alot of OKC Oladipo. A real PG at that. Heat should give him the two-way over Dru Smith tbh
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks bro!
I thought I was one of the only ones who noticed this kid's play. If I had to make a choice between Stephens and Larsson, Pelle wouldn't make it
I feel that
Good player , Reminds me of short bald head (Isaiah Thomas) that played with the Celtics . He is indeed a Gem. Let's Go Heat 🔥
This team desperately needs a floor general. He makes all his teammates look so much better 😭 SIGN THIS MAN PLEASEEEE
Patience, fellas. Let him cook in the G League for a minute. The future is bright for the Heat!
Yes. He. Is. Legit.
Big time
pass first but very capable scorer, good leader.
I knew this kid was special. I for sure thought they would have grabbed him late after Ware. But I hope Heat keeps him
It's to bad that Stevens is 6'0" everybody wants 6'9" PG's the Heat could use a quick guard like him on the floor to get the offense moving faster and get the easy baskets with his assists. Washington has some good handles.
I know Gian Clavell because he went to my high school a few years before I did
Ayyy that’s lit
Isaiah Steven is Tua on the basketball court 😊
Regular season Tua 😂
I like Steven's alot . Great dribble ,awesome pass ,good defense, but his shooting is a ? . But we need a point and I hope makes the team
He definitely knows how to hit floaters.
Dru Smith no no no gotta goooooooo Isaiah Stevens and pullin is better
He is also 5”11 I never see Miami Heat using PG that small.
For sure Dru has a great agent. Now we know...
He’s a mid range monster version of Trey young
I like that
Get dru smith out pullin isaiah in
Yeah I like both of them over Drue Smith, and I need Alondes Williams on this roster somehow.. I wanna see what he can really do, the guy’s a beast
Riley should have allowed the Lowry contract to expire then use that money to get a decent scorer. Then use the draft to find a PG.
Considering how Rozier got hurt last year, it was a bad trade. But Rozier still has time to change that
I'm sure you were saying the same thing before the trade... Visionary thinking 👍
@Wilcoranking Lowry signing was a mistake to begin with. And yes I was not in favor of them giving up a 1st round pick to unload Lowry. Riley was delusional to think they were one player away to win a Championship.
Alondes Williams to the roster
What about his defense? Can he guard 1 to 2? And will he be hunted by opposing team's in switches?
hes assist to turnover ratio is impressive for a undrafted player.
he looks like Oladipo
@@sneakypeekygaming I was actually thinking that too lol
Get rid of Dru !!

We got too many weapons
Tough decisions will have to be made
His number is going to be retired at Colorado State. He's one of the best players in school history.
@@djordan7035 we will miss him at CSU.
I was and I told people.
That you did my friend
tj McConnell with a left hand
Hmmm
He'll need to change that number wtf they tried buddy
Shoutout Joel Anthony
@@anthonyd_heat 🤣🤣🤣🤣 yoo Canada

Better than Dru Smith
Bronny got drafted at 6 foot 😅😂
Boo Dru Smith. I don't understand the hype with Dru.
Same here
Spoelstra's choice maybe he sees something we don't
Heat have too many choices at bottom of the roster.
Not a bad problem to have (also not the best problem to have)
