I really felt Podz was trying to make an impact despite him not scoring as much. Really mature and great feel for the game. TJD was solid and both of them feel like good fits for our system.
I like the guys you would have preferred. They will likely be long-time NBA players. It’s my opinion that the Warriors bringing in another wing would have caused internal problems. We have Wiggins and Kuminga at the SF spot with Santos improving consistently. Despite Brandon making 5 point guards on this roster, it’s clear who is going to play this year. He’ll have all year to work on his game in the G-League. Next year the Warriors will potentially not re-sign Chris Paul or Cory Joseph. Those guys are there to win a chip this coming season. Depending on the contract negotiations with Klay, the Warriors may be able to move Chris Paul’s Contract for a lower paid but properly fitting big such as Myles Turner. I am eager to see if Chris Paul will embrace leading our talented young guys. I agree the players you mentioned are likely to succeed. I believe the reasoning is because the Warriors need to get Kuminga minutes. And not all first round draft picks are humble enough to thrive in a “next-up,” situation. Brandon can shoot like Steph. Now he needs to learn to play the NBA game. I am confident that he will be very good in 2 to 3 years. He’ll be backing up Steph until time causes their roles to reverse. The never-ending dynasty is still in-play from what I can see!
@@bricks4allages954 the guys I suggested are both mature players one havingultiple years in professional basketball and the other 4 years in college Kris has a game at the 4-5 that would compliment kuminga and cisoko has played almost every position at the g league level he for sure viuld learn this year and compliment other in the future since his main game plan is playmaking and defense not scoring which is kumingas strength realistically I think they could of all been on the floor with steph and kaly in the backcourt tbh
Coming out of college everyone agreed Podz could shoot, but there were questions about his playmaking ability. Now, after Summer League, everyone agrees he can be a playmaker, but question his ability to shoot. I believe Podz will learn how to put it all together after a year in the G-League. I'm sure Podz will, at least, be a quality backup PG to Curry.
Here after almost an year and bro never went to G-League and instead replaced Klay in the starting lineup .. steal of the draft 😂 all nba rookie first team as well
Another great video. I'm looking forward to seeing Lester potentially get a full roster spot although I think TJD will have a good role to play as well
I learned a long time ago that very little stock should be put in Summer League. We've seen too many kids look like they'll be out of the league after their rookie contract and then in the league become all-stars. And the opposite is true too, guys that looked like future all-stars in Summer League and then struggled to stay on a team
Exactly. I’m not worried about Podz shooting. He was over compensating with his passing to guys who can’t score as good as him. And without TJD, it was a tall order for him to start. He just needs confidence and to look for it. It will be better as he plays with better talent. TJD showed he can impact the game without being fed the ball in the post, and Podz showed good IQ and he is starting to pick up the system. I think they will be just fine their rookie season.
@@jayjonah83 Khris Dunn and Brandon Ingram were exact opposites in summer league compared to who they are in the league.

I'm not saying it never translates, just saying until you see them in actual games take everything with a grain of salt good or bad
@@Chris_Swish_OtMpodz shooting ability isn’t an issue. He needs to seriously work on his lateral quickness because at the moment he can’t maintain any separation from his defender and that will cost you against NBA-level competition.
I think TJD skill set will get him minutes straight away, another big who we can through in to relieve Dray and Loon. But we just need Moody and JK to make a significant jump where they’re irreplaceable in the rotation.
Sup Alch, I can see TJD getting the most consistent minutes out of the young bucks just because of positional need. I can see TJD getting most of his minutes as the small ball 5 with Saric as the stretch 4. As long as he can grab defensive rebounds I can see TJD getting a solid 8-10 minutes a night. For Podz I think it will be much harder for him to crack the rotation and I can see him spending lots of time in the G-league this season and mostly get garbage minutes or big minutes on those second end of back to back games. Lester I can see getting minutes if we have an injury or need to load manage Steph and CP3. If they go down boom, Lester should get an opportunity. I saw him live in some of his call up games last season at Chase and he looked really uncomfortable out there. I’m hoping he can take his momentum from SL and play just as confident with the big boys. The key to these guys getting minutes will be if they can perfect the details. Which is defense without fouling, securing rebounds, and keep the ball moving. That goes for JK and Moses too. All in all I like this roster much better than last season. And I think we will coast to a top 4 seed in the playoffs this season by improving on our road record. I’d like to see us add a final big man to the rotation just in case someone gets hurt. McGee would be ideal but if not I’d be okay with someone like Biombo. Player needs to be okay with DNP’s and be a emergency break glass type of player that we can throw at certain matchups. (Giannis, Embiid, Joker, Ayton, AD). Which is why I would go with them over someone like Christian Wood who is more talented but could become a problem if he doesn’t get consistent minutes. Imagine if Looney got a serious injury to his hips or knees and needs 3-4 months off during the season? We don’t think about it because he’s such an iron man, but what if? Are we prepared? Or would the whole season in jeopardy? As much as I love Saric and TJD, that would be a lot to ask of them. Why not secure someone as an insurance policy and be able to give Looney some actual relief. I think we’re deep enough at guard, so i’d like to pick up an extra big body or wing defender if we’re against signing another big man.
Pod will play entirely in the G-League this upcoming season. I think he will be a good player in a few years. TJD will be the real deal. Hope he can get enough minutes next year. He should as long as he doesn't make too many mistakes.
Maybe. There were more experienced players available. And, guys with more upside. Weirdly, they went in the middle: the low upside and less experienced dude. Should have punted the pick for a pick next year and got minimum guys or Quinones.
@@HKim0072 Q should be on the roster, I don’t think he should be on a two way deal. They will probably hold the last roster spot open for a buyout candidate.
Some of my favorite summer league sequences were Podziemski to Trayce to someone else. I love that we drafted two high IQ guys. These are guys who will be connective tissue for our offense. Both have great motors and you tell how hungry they are. Concern is on defense, pray their hoops IQ can overcome some of their lack respective of size and athleticism.
@@Chris_Swish_OtM facts thats something ive never seen wiseman play with on the warriors(even tho its only been summer league) i feel tjd knows what he wants to do and knows his role where as wiseman never looked like he fit in couldnt find his spots or progress the plays and find better shots for other players he was on the floor with on the warriors
tjd has a better shot to play more only because of the position... warriors have like 50 guards.... front court is thin. plus he is older and more experienced.
@@whoisomogged5637 Exactly. I think Wiseman only played 3 games at Memphis before getting drafted. So he was out there literally learning on the job. Where as TJD has played 4 years of college ball. He just has so many more reps and skill wise, he has much better hands. I think he will age like wine in this system, the question is can TJD develop a consistent midrange jumpshot? Not that he needs it (like looney) but I think that will be something they work on with him as he develops. Excited for him to learn from Dray & Looney, I think he’ll turn into a defensive monster for us since he can guard 4’s & 5’s.
i think TJD will be in the rotation because the warriors spent money to draft him and his positional fit is great, his skillset exactly what the warriors needed, he is also a little older and more experienced which is what kerr likes because he was not gonna play young guys eitherway, TJD checks the boxes for an athletic big and experience player podz will definitely play in the g league for a year or two and hopefully becomes a DDV type of player (i really do see that in him)
I honestly wish summer league was treated differently. I would’ve like to see kuminga and moody out there just so we could see progress and see how they look if we were to consider them being the 6 man or 1st option on the second unit..
I too enjoy seeing the younger guys show up for summer league. I got to see Kobe Bryant at 17 suit-up for the Lakers the very first time at Cal State Long Beach. That’s where Summer League occurred for a while and that’s where I was attending college. It was like $3 for an all-day pass to sit almost anywhere in the pyramid to watch. Kobe was beyond words. He made it look like nearly everyone else should just go home, lol! Ray Allen was phenomenal. A reason in addition to avoiding injury is the players see it as a sign of disrespect to be sent to summer league when they are champions and technically veterans. Their confidence matters. It’s a delicate subject that each team must make about every player they are developing. Unfortunately it’s not like back-in-the day when Magic Johnson of all people would show-up to run in summer league. Back then it was a pathetic presentation down at the UC Irvine. The NBA has done a great job of turning summer league into a must-watch event for fans.
I'm from team "mistake to trade wiseman" but to say Pod is a bust is ridiculous. TJD being a "mature" pick is someone dubs need to be ready to play this season. Pod is more for the future and anything he gives this year is a bonus.
I think Cam or Murrey were the better picks. Only because I don't think Podz will play much this year. And if he's not going to contribute, go for the more promosing athlete.
Cam looked great, but for the Warriors’ purposes he is more of a Jabari Parker type of player. Strong offensive skills and a big strong guy. He doesn’t fit what the Warriors look for. Considering they recently unloaded Jordan Poole giving a future first rounder, the player’s character is as important as their abilities. I think the Rockets is a great landing spot for Cam. He should get time and be effective in their system. Kris Murray will be good, but then he would have three young and talented players ahead of him. That draft pick would send a message to Kuminga and Moody that they are being replaced. Continuity matters. Last year proved it.
Not too worried about Pod. Think he at least a decent backup point right now. He got i. The paint at will, was able to setup teammates for easy shots, and he played good team defense. He needs to get use to speed and length of nba, but with exp and time think he will be ok.
Nice video. I like Kendric Davis and Reggie Perry for two-ways, pending their training camp showing. Gui is not ready but he has come a long way in a year.
Gui is 110% better and more ready than Kendric or Perry tf? Only issue with Gui is his Brazil contract. No one except Lester played better than Gui or is more ready.
I remember reading some comments on a Detroit Pistons post and they say Wiseman isn't ready for the NBA yet. They think it'll be 2‐3 more years before he actually develops into a good player.
I absolutely love your show. The two draft picks are each ideal for the Warriors. Brandon was running the point as is his natural position. He will need to learn better defensive tactics. He showed excellent passing and shooting skills. I think with some seasoning he could be our starting point guard after Steph is done. Brandon will adjust and learn. He needs time in the G-League. The Warriors have 5 point guards on the roster. There is no pressure for him to perform yet. Stephen Curry couldn’t play defense when he entered the league. The man’s shot is amazing. Brandon is a natural point guard and the coaching staff obviously pushed him to work on running the team. He’ll spend a lot of time in Santa Cruz. In a couple of years Brandon will be ready. He has better potential than Jordan Poole is showing. Trayce is what the Warriors desperately needed. The NBA is still figuring out how bigs will be used. Trayce will be useful immediately. The Warriors 2-Way Contracts if I we’re choosing would be SG Lester Quiones, SF Gui Santos, and PF/C Reggie Perry. Finally, the 11:29 Warriors need a legitimate big still. I understand why the Warriors are waiting on Javalle McGee. He knows the system. C Myers Leonard is an ideal fit over McGee in my opinion. I’d love to see our Warriors throw a curve ball at the entire NBA by starting PG Chris Paul, SG Moses Moody, SF Jonathan Kuminga, PF Trayce Jackson, and C Dario Saric. I would let that unit run the other teams starters out of the gym or get them in foul trouble. After the first five to ten minutes of the first quarter I would insert my best 5 and let them eat. It’s a form of load management. We all know who ends games matters more than who starts. So, I would love to see Steve Kerr be more strategic about how he uses his players. Last season when the young guys started due to injuries, they were competitive against everyone. Wiseman may be a quality big by his ninth or tenth year in the league. He’s a project and currently the poster child for inefficiency. His interior defense is atrocious. That draft I had hoped the Warriors would trade back as the Pistons had 3 picks. I would have taken C Onyeka Okungwu and SF Saddiq Bey along with a future unprotected first rounder for that 2nd overall pick. The Pistons would have happily given-up the #5 and one of their other two mid-first round picks. But the Warriors tried to fit a square peg in a round hole. The draft comes with risks. The Warriors did right by themselves and by Wiseman when they traded him. Now we need one more big who can rebound, defend, and hit the open shot. I would even consider filling the 15th roster spot with a big as well. We need them now as the Lakers proved. I’d be happy with the last two roster spots being bigs on one-year 50% guaranteed contracts. The last two roster spots ideally would be Javelle McGee and Myers Leonard. I would be happy with Boban or Bismack if we can’t get Javelle. I truly enjoy your show! Please continue the excellent content! Go Warriors!
I completely agree with the whitmore take. Especially when kuminga and moody are already there and getting better and primed for a breakout, it would be bad to draft another 2 way scoring wing
Alc is oddly optimistic about the rookies. Usually in this situation I'm honestly not that impressed from the rookies but I'll have to wait and be patient and see if Podz gets better. Podz with my eye test looks too frail, 0 quickness and doesn't look like a pure shooter. He has that quick release, D Lo like release and shooters like that are usually very inconsistent. So he's weak, not explosive and not clearly skilled from a scoring perspectives but you never know.I remember when he was high on Poole in 2020 and I thought he was crazy. Poole was statistically the worst player in the league and he later got better and good enough to help us win a championship so we will see how it goes
Cory Joseph is a guy that I've wanted to fill the Barbosa role. He attacks and can create. He's tough and competes. I'm stoked they got him! Last roster spot is for Rudy Gay... fills Otto Porter role. Still need to fill Iggy shoes!
Corey will be interesting- if he is strong fit then maybe they can move Paul - think he will not be good fit on court or locker room. Jk can’t fill those shoes? Rudy nowhere near the playmaker as Iggy in same mode as Pippen - Pt fwrd. Defense & ability to create his own shot & for others -that’s what JK should do. So let’s see if with real PT he can do it. Jk shouldn’t be sharing minutes with Gay he should be at the point of pushing Wiggs & Dray for their minutes.
@omniamericana2172 that's why I said Gay would fill Otto role... and they need to find a replacement for Iggy. Pretty annoying that they haven't gone out of the way to repeat the success they had with Draymond and Iggy as point forwards. They haven't drafted or signed or traded for anyone with their skillset. The motion offense desperately needed ball movers. I agree CP3 isn't a good fit and hopefully traded to fill holes.
@@GBnHawaii most underrated what the combo of dray & Iggy meant because ppl look only at #s (like triple single -shyt it takes to win). 2 defenders 2 great passers & high IQ. I remember Gay as shooter/scorer - not as play maker and he keeps getting bounced around? But we need to see JK unleashed to see what we have. If it’s spotty play, bunch of DNPs while guys like Lamb or Jerome eat up minutes - he will become vocal -add that to Paul seemingly not understanding he’s a backup now- could be locker room trouble. Moody, Joseph, Lester, GP, Jk -already a log jam of guys who want to breakout or remain on an NBA roster.
Gay isn't needed but Curry mentioned wanting to play with him before and he'd be a great vet... plus high jersey sales in sf. He's older and fallen off a bit so probably past his window. Curry CP3 Joseph Klay GP2 Moody (Lester) Podz Wiggins Kuminga (Santos) Draymond Saric Looney TDJ Warriors have the best point guard trio in the league, and it's not close... but no one else can create for others or put the offense on their shoulders. The rest of the roster is pretty good if they're actually running the offense through backup God CP3 and not a point forward like in the past. They didn't go after any defensive bigs. They didn't go after any defensive point forwards. It's really a strange evolution... I guess they're hoping for injury riddled play-off opponents again? Cam would have been a great pick for a trading package or to push the tempo. That would have made the bench so physical and given then another gear. Podz isn't any better than Ty Jerome.
@@GBnHawaii I forgot about Gay until his name was mentioned in trades recently-didn’t kno he was still in the league. Buy It is a strange evolution that you have Paul, Joseph and then drafting Podzi (who i believe might have gone undrafted) was the route they went. Especially Podzi with Paul, lester & Joseph? Dude couldn’t get on the floor at Illini -why he transferred. It was clear they needed someone who can “cook” -get their own shot (like what Lonnie walker did to Dubs). Wiggs just doesn’t have the motor. Plus a rim protector to help aging perimeter defenders. When Teams decided to play downhill they got to the basket at will- I don’t get it? JK & Wiggs highly rated defenders (by some metric both top 10 but did you ever see them on the floor together? If you drafting a guy & don’t care if they play- or thinking they won’t (which Podzi won’t) why not take Cam or, the long kid from Bama who can shoot just to see?
Podziemski showed that he understood what was going on out there in just a handful of summer league games. No he has to develop his game and don't get down on himself like we kind of saw in a couple games the SL
Probably best to play TJD and Lester more before Pod. That last two way spot probably goes to a young big or a shooter. I still feel like warriors need a true center who can defend, rebounds, and get some easy buckets...I also dont mind Howard or final union with Cousins with the the healthy core.
I thoroughly enjoyed your analysis. Pod did not show that he was ready for primetime. He will benefit from the G league by having a chance to get his confidence back. There are no minutes for him and warming the bench as a spectator would be the end of his chance to be an NBA player. On the other hand, the warriors really need what TJD can contribute. Looking forward to watching him play.
You have think about it. Everytime I he pass the ball the ball didn't come back to him. Like you said everyone trying to make the team. So it like a run and gun. So sometime you make a bad shot because you haven't got the chance to shot.
Podz played like a guy that played 1 year of college basketball the average nba player that played 1 year of college needs time to develop but I like his feel and IQ and he can shoot the 3 I think hell be a good player in a few years
Lester, Ken Davis and Reggie Perry for the two-way spots, unless some "vets" come in last minute like last year. I don't see the Warriors giving Gui that spot yet, although he looked GREAT in summer league. I wish Jayce Johnson would have shown up more, but he only got 15 minutes a game. Would like to see him turn into the big of the future someday, but that might be wishful thinking.
@@antoniogreen9176 So who do you have for the three two way spots? Leste is one for sure, but who are the other two? I'd be surprised if they give one to Gui already, I don't think they think he's there yet
@@harryweston294 lester already has one of the 2 ways and I would say Gui should get the other one and for the last one idk maybe perry we just need a big fr
Santos can’t sign a 2 way deal because he’s still under his contract with Brazil. The warriors would have to buy him out which they’re not gonna do. He’s gonna play another year with the SCW and then next year with hopes to elevate to the main roster. That’s the developmental plan the G League coach stated
Podz saving grace will be his hustle. Until his shot/finishing can catch up to his effort, he'll will have to earn minutes as a guy that makes the hustle plays.
I think the plan with Podz is to hopefully mold him into a tradeable asset with time, I'm not sure the plan was ever to keep him. He has the work ethic and intelligence to really improve with effort.
@@Kdfamilyman71 Because he's got a lot of potential, so it was a good pickup for the draft position they were at. The Warriors cultivate people with potential very well, if you've been paying attention. We don't rely on rookies for basically anything historically, Wiseman was the one time and we saw how that worked out. They'll develop him and if it goes well, some team will want him if he doesn't fit with us.
@@NealX_Gaming Wiseman and Podziemski are two entirely different cases for the Warriors. Wise barely played in college. Because of Covid the Warriors couldn't really get a feel for his game or motor. There was no real draft combine the year they took Wiseman 2nd. Podz already fits what the Warriors do well. He just has to adjust to the NBA pace. They didn't draft him to mold him and move him. He has potential the warriors want to bring it out. The warriors don't rely on rookies. I could've sworn Kuminga started for them a few games agaisnt Memphis in the playoffs a few years back. And he was rookie if you were paying attention.
That is possible, but my analysis is that they see Brandon playing a significant role in a year or two. In four years Wiggins and Looney may be all that remains of our starters.
I don’t think they are already a bust . However I don’t have a great feeling about Pod. Wiseman stink though lol . I saw some flashes but not 19th pick flashes
Pod has to get above 20 in G to go to next level but has high level floor vision. I think 44 3 ball is home he just needs step back 3 or side step 3 quick release! I have heard he is another Nico, no he is more elite athlete, more NBA body, high motor, better shot… Davis, I think may really flourish quick, those big mitts and fast jump high IQ he is going to get playing time! Can add 7 rebounds
I think Trayce will definitely play. Interesting video is about to come out. Two former Warriors shooting around together today. Kevin Durant and Jordan Poole. 🤔
Both these guys are gamers. Both will fit well within the golden state system and that’s all that mattters. Both have great basketball iq. Pods is a much better passer then I realized. Just needs to tighten up the turnovers.
When Alch started going into first impressions are important and people noticing your skin, I thought we were heading into a much deeper conversation….
TJD, i think will get some minutes, while Podz will most likely get sent down to the G League just like what they did with Poole during the 2020-21 season
I could be way off, but I don't see Podz getting a crack at it with so many guards already. (Paul, Joseph, Payton II, Moody, Quinones). Getting deja vu of Jordan Poole G-league & Wanamaker days.
If TJD can give us 15-20 minutes a night and work his way towards finishing the season putting up 10ppg/5rpg/2-3apg/1-2bpg that would mean ring #5 is on the menu forshoyourighton.
@@Low_Marine Loon was forced into playing 23-25mpg for us last season. Our entire veteran core + CP3 is now a year older. Everyone's minutes are going to get load managed even more this season. Which is why I think if TJD can show it on the court, he will 100% earn 15-20mpg towards the latter end of the season leading into the post season. Hopefully that gives Loon and Dray a bit of hope for some rest before we start the Warriors Invitational.
I see Podziemski as 70% replacement of Dante in terms of the (non shooting) things he does. His ability to defend well will solely determine if he plays with any regularity.
@@james3744 he was never gonna play this season...and that's what i'm saying tho he getting burned on defense in the summer league what makes you think he's comparable to donte besides their skin color.

@@Bigredfitnessmoshe well, the games where he started, he did play really good and it's pretty clear with their record at the start of 2021-2022 season even without Klay
I used to drive the Wiseman bus. But, I have gotten off it. He showed in his more minutes he got in Detroit, why he Kerr wasn't playing him. And my apologies to Kerr, he was right. Wiseman proved he is unplayable. He is a sieve on defense. Your center cannot be so, so bad.I hope he improves, and wish him the best. Who knows? And, paying him 20M per year (over 100M with taxes) was just not worth it. Glad they got off him.
What if I was Pro Wiseman and even more Pro CAM WHITMORE!!! Brandin has even more haters because we passed on Whitmore who may have the ability to play for us, while Brandon won’t be able to see real minutes for at least 2 season (without injuries).
I don’t think it’s the same people tbh. I defended wiseman cuz he’s a young guy so I do the same for podz. I do it w all the young guys cuz people are always too impatient.
I still don't like the Pod pick he just seems like too much of project for now. Why not got with someone who is more NBA ready? Also, I felt like the 19th pick is perfect for taking a swing at Whitmore. Even if Kerr didn't play him seems he would be a nice tradable asset.
Podz is a huge project. Horrible first round pick. Would’ve been a decent second round but not one team was looking to draft him in the first round except the warriors. Santa Cruz has another 2-3 year player. I will watch him just like I did in college and I guarantee I won’t see much difference. He has a very low ceiling but what do I know I have only been doing this for 7 years.

@@Chris_Swish_OtMpodz shooting ability isn’t an issue. He needs to seriously work on his lateral quickness because at the moment he can’t maintain any separation from his defender and that will cost you against NBA-level competition.
I think TJD skill set will get him minutes straight away, another big who we can through in to relieve Dray and Loon. But we just need Moody and JK to make a significant jump where they’re irreplaceable in the rotation.
Sup Alch, I can see TJD getting the most consistent minutes out of the young bucks just because of positional need.
I can see TJD getting most of his minutes as the small ball 5 with Saric as the stretch 4. As long as he can grab defensive rebounds I can see TJD getting a solid 8-10 minutes a night.
For Podz I think it will be much harder for him to crack the rotation and I can see him spending lots of time in the G-league this season and mostly get garbage minutes or big minutes on those second end of back to back games.
Lester I can see getting minutes if we have an injury or need to load manage Steph and CP3. If they go down boom, Lester should get an opportunity. I saw him live in some of his call up games last season at Chase and he looked really uncomfortable out there. I’m hoping he can take his momentum from SL and play just as confident with the big boys.
The key to these guys getting minutes will be if they can perfect the details. Which is defense without fouling, securing rebounds, and keep the ball moving. That goes for JK and Moses too.
All in all I like this roster much better than last season. And I think we will coast to a top 4 seed in the playoffs this season by improving on our road record.
I’d like to see us add a final big man to the rotation just in case someone gets hurt. McGee would be ideal but if not I’d be okay with someone like Biombo.
Player needs to be okay with DNP’s and be a emergency break glass type of player that we can throw at certain matchups. (Giannis, Embiid, Joker, Ayton, AD). Which is why I would go with them over someone like Christian Wood who is more talented but could become a problem if he doesn’t get consistent minutes.
Imagine if Looney got a serious injury to his hips or knees and needs 3-4 months off during the season? We don’t think about it because he’s such an iron man, but what if? Are we prepared? Or would the whole season in jeopardy? As much as I love Saric and TJD, that would be a lot to ask of them. Why not secure someone as an insurance policy and be able to give Looney some actual relief.
I think we’re deep enough at guard, so i’d like to pick up an extra big body or wing defender if we’re against signing another big man.
I totally agree 👍
Pod will play entirely in the G-League this upcoming season. I think he will be a good player in a few years. TJD will be the real deal. Hope he can get enough minutes next year. He should as long as he doesn't make too many mistakes.
Maybe. There were more experienced players available. And, guys with more upside. Weirdly, they went in the middle: the low upside and less experienced dude.
Should have punted the pick for a pick next year and got minimum guys or Quinones.
@@HKim0072 Q should be on the roster, I don’t think he should be on a two way deal. They will probably hold the last roster spot open for a buyout candidate.
This aged like milk 😂
Bro was an all rookie first team,never went to G league and replaced Klay Thompson in the starting lineup 😂😂
Some of my favorite summer league sequences were Podziemski to Trayce to someone else. I love that we drafted two high IQ guys. These are guys who will be connective tissue for our offense. Both have great motors and you tell how hungry they are. Concern is on defense, pray their hoops IQ can overcome some of their lack respective of size and athleticism.
Got a feeling TJD is going to be relied upon often this season. Maybe giving Draymond, Saric, or Looney some relief minutes/games?
Definitely. He just knows how to play and looked so comfortable out there. I think he’ll be a solid rotation big for us out the gate.
@@Chris_Swish_OtM facts thats something ive never seen wiseman play with on the warriors(even tho its only been summer league) i feel tjd knows what he wants to do and knows his role where as wiseman never looked like he fit in couldnt find his spots or progress the plays and find better shots for other players he was on the floor with on the warriors
He'll take the Lamb minutes.
tjd has a better shot to play more only because of the position... warriors have like 50 guards.... front court is thin. plus he is older and more experienced.
@@whoisomogged5637 Exactly. I think Wiseman only played 3 games at Memphis before getting drafted. So he was out there literally learning on the job. Where as TJD has played 4 years of college ball. He just has so many more reps and skill wise, he has much better hands.
I think he will age like wine in this system, the question is can TJD develop a consistent midrange jumpshot? Not that he needs it (like looney) but I think that will be something they work on with him as he develops. Excited for him to learn from Dray & Looney, I think he’ll turn into a defensive monster for us since he can guard 4’s & 5’s.
i think TJD will be in the rotation because the warriors spent money to draft him and his positional fit is great, his skillset exactly what the warriors needed, he is also a little older and more experienced which is what kerr likes because he was not gonna play young guys eitherway, TJD checks the boxes for an athletic big and experience player
podz will definitely play in the g league for a year or two and hopefully becomes a DDV type of player (i really do see that in him)
They paid for Rollins too
The draft is a gamble and science mixed together.
I honestly wish summer league was treated differently. I would’ve like to see kuminga and moody out there just so we could see progress and see how they look if we were to consider them being the 6 man or 1st option on the second unit..
Training camp and pre-season were made for that, don't risk them an injury playing rookies when you can see their development in a pre-season game.
I too enjoy seeing the younger guys show up for summer league. I got to see Kobe Bryant at 17 suit-up for the Lakers the very first time at Cal State Long Beach. That’s where Summer League occurred for a while and that’s where I was attending college. It was like $3 for an all-day pass to sit almost anywhere in the pyramid to watch. Kobe was beyond words. He made it look like nearly everyone else should just go home, lol! Ray Allen was phenomenal. A reason in addition to avoiding injury is the players see it as a sign of disrespect to be sent to summer league when they are champions and technically veterans. Their confidence matters. It’s a delicate subject that each team must make about every player they are developing. Unfortunately it’s not like back-in-the day when Magic Johnson of all people would show-up to run in summer league. Back then it was a pathetic presentation down at the UC Irvine. The NBA has done a great job of turning summer league into a must-watch event for fans.

That transition into the sponsor was smooth.

Yo that ad transition was SMOOTH
Great video, I was waiting for this breakdown!
That ad read 🙌🔥
I like both picks personally.
In what way would we need Brandin any time soon.
We should have drafted that kid Whitmore that went to Houston at 21
I'm from team "mistake to trade wiseman" but to say Pod is a bust is ridiculous. TJD being a "mature" pick is someone dubs need to be ready to play this season. Pod is more for the future and anything he gives this year is a bonus.
If we go by the Kerr playbook, the rookies won't play because they're not experienced enough and the Warriors need to win NOW
Great show
🙏🏽
I think Cam or Murrey were the better picks. Only because I don't think Podz will play much this year. And if he's not going to contribute, go for the more promosing athlete.
That's why we have CP3, to help this year. Next year, after a year in the G-League, I suspect Podz will be ready to run the Warriors second unit.
Cam looked great, but for the Warriors’ purposes he is more of a Jabari Parker type of player. Strong offensive skills and a big strong guy. He doesn’t fit what the Warriors look for. Considering they recently unloaded Jordan Poole giving a future first rounder, the player’s character is as important as their abilities. I think the Rockets is a great landing spot for Cam. He should get time and be effective in their system. Kris Murray will be good, but then he would have three young and talented players ahead of him. That draft pick would send a message to Kuminga and Moody that they are being replaced. Continuity matters. Last year proved it.
Not too worried about Pod. Think he at least a decent backup point right now. He got i. The paint at will, was able to setup teammates for easy shots, and he played good team defense. He needs to get use to speed and length of nba, but with exp and time think he will be ok.
Nice video. I like Kendric Davis and Reggie Perry for two-ways, pending their training camp showing. Gui is not ready but he has come a long way in a year.
Gui is 110% better and more ready than Kendric or Perry tf? Only issue with Gui is his Brazil contract. No one except Lester played better than Gui or is more ready.
@@wrldz9244 exactly dude talking about kendric davis 😩🤣🤣🤣
Im tired of the Wiseman fanboys
Can’t wait to see how they blame Kerr next year when he’s absolute trash
I remember reading some comments on a Detroit Pistons post and they say Wiseman isn't ready for the NBA yet. They think it'll be 2‐3 more years before he actually develops into a good player.

Those promo transitions are Stephortless 😂
Thanks for the report dawg. We just gotta trust the dubs system to develop these kids.
I absolutely love your show. The two draft picks are each ideal for the Warriors. Brandon was running the point as is his natural position. He will need to learn better defensive tactics. He showed excellent passing and shooting skills. I think with some seasoning he could be our starting point guard after Steph is done. Brandon will adjust and learn. He needs time in the G-League. The Warriors have 5 point guards on the roster. There is no pressure for him to perform yet. Stephen Curry couldn’t play defense when he entered the league. The man’s shot is amazing. Brandon is a natural point guard and the coaching staff obviously pushed him to work on running the team. He’ll spend a lot of time in Santa Cruz. In a couple of years Brandon will be ready. He has better potential than Jordan Poole is showing.
Trayce is what the Warriors desperately needed. The NBA is still figuring out how bigs will be used. Trayce will be useful immediately.
The Warriors 2-Way Contracts if I we’re choosing would be SG Lester Quiones, SF Gui Santos, and PF/C Reggie Perry.
Finally, the 11:29 Warriors need a legitimate big still. I understand why the Warriors are waiting on Javalle McGee. He knows the system. C Myers Leonard is an ideal fit over McGee in my opinion.
I’d love to see our Warriors throw a curve ball at the entire NBA by starting PG Chris Paul, SG Moses Moody, SF Jonathan Kuminga, PF Trayce Jackson, and C Dario Saric. I would let that unit run the other teams starters out of the gym or get them in foul trouble. After the first five to ten minutes of the first quarter I would insert my best 5 and let them eat. It’s a form of load management. We all know who ends games matters more than who starts. So, I would love to see Steve Kerr be more strategic about how he uses his players. Last season when the young guys started due to injuries, they were competitive against everyone.
Wiseman may be a quality big by his ninth or tenth year in the league. He’s a project and currently the poster child for inefficiency. His interior defense is atrocious. That draft I had hoped the Warriors would trade back as the Pistons had 3 picks. I would have taken C Onyeka Okungwu and SF Saddiq Bey along with a future unprotected first rounder for that 2nd overall pick. The Pistons would have happily given-up the #5 and one of their other two mid-first round picks. But the Warriors tried to fit a square peg in a round hole. The draft comes with risks. The Warriors did right by themselves and by Wiseman when they traded him.
Now we need one more big who can rebound, defend, and hit the open shot. I would even consider filling the 15th roster spot with a big as well. We need them now as the Lakers proved. I’d be happy with the last two roster spots being bigs on one-year 50% guaranteed contracts. The last two roster spots ideally would be Javelle McGee and Myers Leonard. I would be happy with Boban or Bismack if we can’t get Javelle.
I truly enjoy your show! Please continue the excellent content! Go Warriors!
That was a good ad transition lol
I completely agree with the whitmore take. Especially when kuminga and moody are already there and getting better and primed for a breakout, it would be bad to draft another 2 way scoring wing
Alc is oddly optimistic about the rookies. Usually in this situation I'm honestly not that impressed from the rookies but I'll have to wait and be patient and see if Podz gets better. Podz with my eye test looks too frail, 0 quickness and doesn't look like a pure shooter. He has that quick release, D Lo like release and shooters like that are usually very inconsistent. So he's weak, not explosive and not clearly skilled from a scoring perspectives but you never know.I remember when he was high on Poole in 2020 and I thought he was crazy. Poole was statistically the worst player in the league and he later got better and good enough to help us win a championship so we will see how it goes
He didn’t shoot well in summer league, but you have to think that 40% number from 3 meant something.
The base is athleticism and competitiveness. Then intelligence and maturity -- they make the difference.
Cory Joseph is a guy that I've wanted to fill the Barbosa role. He attacks and can create. He's tough and competes. I'm stoked they got him! Last roster spot is for Rudy Gay... fills Otto Porter role. Still need to fill Iggy shoes!
Corey will be interesting- if he is strong fit then maybe they can move Paul - think he will not be good fit on court or locker room.
Jk can’t fill those shoes? Rudy nowhere near the playmaker as Iggy in same mode as Pippen - Pt fwrd. Defense & ability to create his own shot & for others -that’s what JK should do. So let’s see if with real PT he can do it. Jk shouldn’t be sharing minutes with Gay he should be at the point of pushing Wiggs & Dray for their minutes.
@omniamericana2172 that's why I said Gay would fill Otto role... and they need to find a replacement for Iggy. Pretty annoying that they haven't gone out of the way to repeat the success they had with Draymond and Iggy as point forwards. They haven't drafted or signed or traded for anyone with their skillset. The motion offense desperately needed ball movers.
I agree CP3 isn't a good fit and hopefully traded to fill holes.
@@GBnHawaii most underrated what the combo of dray & Iggy meant because ppl look only at #s (like triple single -shyt it takes to win). 2 defenders 2 great passers & high IQ.
I remember Gay as shooter/scorer - not as play maker and he keeps getting bounced around?
But we need to see JK unleashed to see what we have. If it’s spotty play, bunch of DNPs while guys like Lamb or Jerome eat up minutes - he will become vocal -add that to Paul seemingly not understanding he’s a backup now- could be locker room trouble.
Moody, Joseph, Lester, GP, Jk -already a log jam of guys who want to breakout or remain on an NBA roster.
Gay isn't needed but Curry mentioned wanting to play with him before and he'd be a great vet... plus high jersey sales in sf. He's older and fallen off a bit so probably past his window.
Curry CP3 Joseph
Klay GP2 Moody (Lester) Podz
Wiggins Kuminga (Santos)
Draymond Saric
Looney TDJ
Warriors have the best point guard trio in the league, and it's not close... but no one else can create for others or put the offense on their shoulders.
The rest of the roster is pretty good if they're actually running the offense through backup God CP3 and not a point forward like in the past. They didn't go after any defensive bigs. They didn't go after any defensive point forwards. It's really a strange evolution... I guess they're hoping for injury riddled play-off opponents again?
Cam would have been a great pick for a trading package or to push the tempo. That would have made the bench so physical and given then another gear. Podz isn't any better than Ty Jerome.
@@GBnHawaii I forgot about Gay until his name was mentioned in trades recently-didn’t kno he was still in the league.
Buy It is a strange evolution that you have Paul, Joseph and then drafting Podzi (who i believe might have gone undrafted) was the route they went. Especially Podzi with Paul, lester & Joseph? Dude couldn’t get on the floor at Illini -why he transferred.
It was clear they needed someone who can “cook” -get their own shot (like what Lonnie walker did to Dubs). Wiggs just doesn’t have the motor.
Plus a rim protector to help aging perimeter defenders. When Teams decided to play downhill they got to the basket at will- I don’t get it?
JK & Wiggs highly rated defenders (by some metric both top 10 but did you ever see them on the floor together?
If you drafting a guy & don’t care if they play- or thinking they won’t (which Podzi won’t) why not take Cam or, the long kid from Bama who can shoot just to see?
that is what i was going to ask you alch, did santos break his collarbone? if he did that is a big bummer, i like this 2 g league cats.
Podziemski showed that he understood what was going on out there in just a handful of summer league games. No he has to develop his game and don't get down on himself like we kind of saw in a couple games the SL
I noticed during one of the games that he had a little cut under his eye, like he took an elbow in traffic. #growingpains
Probably best to play TJD and Lester more before Pod. That last two way spot probably goes to a young big or a shooter. I still feel like warriors need a true center who can defend, rebounds, and get some easy buckets...I also dont mind Howard or final union with Cousins with the the healthy core.
If TJD hits his outside shots he gonna play
I think if he can play decent defense and rebound well, he can get some minutes.
Should’ve got cam….
What are your takes on the new Steph documentary Unc
two way suggestions: Trendon Watford
Nice Nas reference Alch
The way you transitioned into the sponsor or that face care routine was genius, but irritating at the same time LMAO
I thoroughly enjoyed your analysis. Pod did not show that he was ready for primetime. He will benefit from the G league by having a chance to get his confidence back. There are no minutes for him and warming the bench as a spectator would be the end of his chance to be an NBA player. On the other hand, the warriors really need what TJD can contribute. Looking forward to watching him play.
You have think about it. Everytime I he pass the ball the ball didn't come back to him. Like you said everyone trying to make the team. So it like a run and gun. So sometime you make a bad shot because you haven't got the chance to shot.
I’d want to add Nico mannion with the last 2 way deal.
Maybe we’re not excited about Podz because we still remember how overmatched Nico Mannion was.
Hopefully last spot goes to gui I’ve really liked him
Athletic Alchemy - stop with the in vid ads -you make plenty of money
It is funny that Draymond comments on other players' confidence of shooting.
Podz played like a guy that played 1 year of college basketball the average nba player that played 1 year of college needs time to develop but I like his feel and IQ and he can shoot the 3 I think hell be a good player in a few years
Lester, Ken Davis and Reggie Perry for the two-way spots, unless some "vets" come in last minute like last year. I don't see the Warriors giving Gui that spot yet, although he looked GREAT in summer league. I wish Jayce Johnson would have shown up more, but he only got 15 minutes a game. Would like to see him turn into the big of the future someday, but that might be wishful thinking.
This is a lot of wishful thinking. Theyre G league players for a reason but Gui is solid tho so is lester
@@antoniogreen9176 So who do you have for the three two way spots? Leste is one for sure, but who are the other two? I'd be surprised if they give one to Gui already, I don't think they think he's there yet
@@harryweston294 lester already has one of the 2 ways and I would say Gui should get the other one and for the last one idk maybe perry we just need a big fr
Send Brandin to the G league.
My pick is Gui Santos.
Santos can’t sign a 2 way deal because he’s still under his contract with Brazil. The warriors would have to buy him out which they’re not gonna do. He’s gonna play another year with the SCW and then next year with hopes to elevate to the main roster. That’s the developmental plan the G League coach stated
would be great if we do buy him out. we'd have the best 2 way guys by a mile.
Podz saving grace will be his hustle. Until his shot/finishing can catch up to his effort, he'll will have to earn minutes as a guy that makes the hustle plays.
Let’s get a chip
I think the plan with Podz is to hopefully mold him into a tradeable asset with time, I'm not sure the plan was ever to keep him. He has the work ethic and intelligence to really improve with effort.
What? Lol why would the draft him mold him just for the purpose of trading him smh. Chill
@@Kdfamilyman71 Because he's got a lot of potential, so it was a good pickup for the draft position they were at. The Warriors cultivate people with potential very well, if you've been paying attention. We don't rely on rookies for basically anything historically, Wiseman was the one time and we saw how that worked out. They'll develop him and if it goes well, some team will want him if he doesn't fit with us.
@@NealX_Gaming Wiseman and Podziemski are two entirely different cases for the Warriors. Wise barely played in college. Because of Covid the Warriors couldn't really get a feel for his game or motor. There was no real draft combine the year they took Wiseman 2nd. Podz already fits what the Warriors do well. He just has to adjust to the NBA pace. They didn't draft him to mold him and move him. He has potential the warriors want to bring it out. The warriors don't rely on rookies. I could've sworn Kuminga started for them a few games agaisnt Memphis in the playoffs a few years back. And he was rookie if you were paying attention.
That is possible, but my analysis is that they see Brandon playing a significant role in a year or two. In four years Wiggins and Looney may be all that remains of our starters.
I don’t think they are already a bust . However I don’t have a great feeling about Pod. Wiseman stink though lol . I saw some flashes but not 19th pick flashes
Pod has to get above 20 in G to go to next level but has high level floor vision. I think 44 3 ball is home he just needs step back 3 or side step 3 quick release! I have heard he is another Nico, no he is more elite athlete, more NBA body, high motor, better shot… Davis, I think may really flourish quick, those big mitts and fast jump high IQ he is going to get playing time! Can add 7 rebounds
Whitmore? They already have Kuminga, the same player.
I think Trayce will definitely play. Interesting video is about to come out. Two former Warriors shooting around together today. Kevin Durant and Jordan Poole. 🤔
Only then they have going is they both hate Draymond. Both are losers.
Brandon was solid, he ONLY didn’t shoot that well. He played solid basketball.
Turnovers galore my guy
Both these guys are gamers. Both will fit well within the golden state system and that’s all that mattters. Both have great basketball iq. Pods is a much better passer then I realized. Just needs to tighten up the turnovers.
Y Not??
When Alch started going into first impressions are important and people noticing your skin, I thought we were heading into a much deeper conversation….
Frank kaminsky on the final roster and gui santos on the two way!
Lol great Nas reference
TJD, i think will get some minutes, while Podz will most likely get sent down to the G League just like what they did with Poole during the 2020-21 season
Dear Lord! I just pray the Dubs are ENTERTAINING this year. The only disagreement I have with Draymond is that the regular szn DOES matter.
Still wish we took Murray. He was a perfect system fit.
I could be way off, but I don't see Podz getting a crack at it with so many guards already. (Paul, Joseph, Payton II, Moody, Quinones). Getting deja vu of Jordan Poole G-league & Wanamaker days.
If TJD can give us 15-20 minutes a night and work his way towards finishing the season putting up 10ppg/5rpg/2-3apg/1-2bpg that would mean ring #5 is on the menu forshoyourighton.
yo loon plays like 25 mins. Where would we even get the minutes?
@@Low_Marine Loon was forced into playing 23-25mpg for us last season. Our entire veteran core + CP3 is now a year older. Everyone's minutes are going to get load managed even more this season. Which is why I think if TJD can show it on the court, he will 100% earn 15-20mpg towards the latter end of the season leading into the post season. Hopefully that gives Loon and Dray a bit of hope for some rest before we start the Warriors Invitational.
TJD will prove to be a great Warriors draft pick.
BPodz…not so much.
should’ve drafted cam whitmore!! Now rockets got a good steal.
We should’ve instead of podz
I see Podziemski as 70% replacement of Dante in terms of the (non shooting) things he does. His ability to defend well will solely determine if he plays with any regularity.

@@Bigredfitnessmoshe well, the games where he started, he did play really good and it's pretty clear with their record at the start of 2021-2022 season even without Klay

TJD is gonna play Pod though probably not LOL
With so many guards I would like Gui Santos getting some minutes..
Yeah can’t add anymore guards rn
We should have taken Cam 😫😫😫
Kris Murray honestly
He would've been just like his twin brother Keegan, a lil worse when it comes to shooting tho

@@ftodageneral8943 Your dada dođ kod mame hehe
TJD i think should be given time but not BP
I used to drive the Wiseman bus. But, I have gotten off it. He showed in his more minutes he got in Detroit, why he Kerr wasn't playing him. And my apologies to Kerr, he was right. Wiseman proved he is unplayable. He is a sieve on defense. Your center cannot be so, so bad.I hope he improves, and wish him the best. Who knows? And, paying him 20M per year (over 100M with taxes) was just not worth it. Glad they got off him.
I expect they trade CP before plays
There's a pro Wiseman fanboys? Would of never thought of it.
What if I was Pro Wiseman and even more Pro CAM WHITMORE!!! Brandin has even more haters because we passed on Whitmore who may have the ability to play for us, while Brandon won’t be able to see real minutes for at least 2 season (without injuries).
I don’t think it’s the same people tbh. I defended wiseman cuz he’s a young guy so I do the same for podz. I do it w all the young guys cuz people are always too impatient.
Wiseman is good ? lol one the worst +/- in the Whole League
Idk how podz will get on the floor and same w tjd just cuz of the saric signing
I still don't like the Pod pick he just seems like too much of project for now. Why not got with someone who is more NBA ready? Also, I felt like the 19th pick is perfect for taking a swing at Whitmore. Even if Kerr didn't play him seems he would be a nice tradable asset.
Whitmore is good, but i think Kris Murray would've been a better pick
Podz is a huge project. Horrible first round pick. Would’ve been a decent second round but not one team was looking to draft him in the first round except the warriors. Santa Cruz has another 2-3 year player. I will watch him just like I did in college and I guarantee I won’t see much difference. He has a very low ceiling but what do I know I have only been doing this for 7 years.
Oh yea before I forget. He is highly turnover prone and it will only get worse.
