That's not what he said. 100 times better _for_ Detroit not 100x better as a prospect. And he is. As a Pistons fan Holland makes _zero sense_ on this team Buzelis projects as a better shooter, he's a better connective playmaker, better rim protector and rebounder and he's bigger Matas actually makes sense next to the other four young players This is like Josh Giddey on the Thunder where he's going to be asked to do all the things he is bad at and none of the things he does well.
@@michaelahurtMatas is still not 100x better for Detroit, Holland has a way higher ceiling and the best athlete in the class, there is a reason buzelis slipped outside the top 10.

He's 3" bigger so is a legit PF, he's a _good_ weakside rim protector, better rebounder, has better feel as a connective playmaker and projects as better shooter since he has a softer touch and better, cleaner mechanics
@@michaelahurt respect your opinion. still dont agree. Buzelis is not 100x better than Holland in any case. neither can shoot. one can defend and attack the paint at a very high rate and has all the physical tools. the other just has “potential” and average length for his size. we’ll see what happens.
@@calvincambridge4586 Attacking the paint is irrelevant. Duren is in the paint. Ivey is the paint. Ausar is in the paint. The middle is closed. Also Buzelis is a better defender for Detroit because they already have Ausar and rim protection is generally more important than perimeter defense, but especially on a team that doesn't have a big time rim protector at center In a vacuum, Holland is better, but in Detroit he won't get to do any of the things he is good at.
The Spurs traded the 8th pick because draft capital is going to be more valuable because of the changes in the salary cap. Also this draft class isn’t anything special. They’ve got so many draft picks for next years loaded draft class with the Hornets pick and the Bulls pick. They can also use the future picks for a trade.
@@jacobchambers7201 or the next Nash or Curry He's way more than a one dimensional shooter like McDermott. He can shoot off movement, he's an elite playmaker on defense and he's a really smart passer who understands the game

As a Kentucky Fan. You did not watch what Reed Sheppard did this past season. He is that guy there’s a reason that nba teams wanted him at the 3rd pick.
I enjoyed everything on the draft not expect the 8th pick trade I think it's one of the dumbest trades of all time and good job to the Timberwolf for massive sniper of the 8th pick
I've been a dilligham Stan since early in the college year think he's a top 2 maybe best player in the draft he's maxey 2 .0 at peak and Jennings at low min stole him
Onyeka Okungwu better get his ass in gear because if he does not overtake Capela next year. The hawks will once again be undersized and murdered in the paint
Possibly. I think he's more like Lou Williams or Jamal Crawford. He's a more dynamic shot maker than Maxey but ... Maxey was and is a really, really special finisher for his size. Rob is definitely a good finisher but he's not as good at creating angles. He tends to go around defenders. It's closer to how Trae Young finishes. Lots of touch shots. He's also going to have a much tougher time getting downhill in Minnesota where Gobert clogs the paint But it's a nice fit offensively. Minnesota needed another shot creator and Rob is _definitely_ that I honestly think he's probably a better long term option than Ant running PnR. He's a much better shooter and he actually throws lobs. That allows Ant to attack downhill against rotating defenses which is where he really excels
@@MickTalksHoops Ja'kobe Walter to raptors was raptors taking a guy they thought would be gone in the 10-15 range who was available at 19.. they need shooting and defence. it also indicates they likely let gary trent jr walk. end of the day he is 19th pick man, he isnt gonna get starting minutes at 19. only top 6 players get to start after draft if the teams has a spot open. end of the day the raptors are in a 3-4 year rebuild so taking walter was best player available who can shoot and play defence. i expect brown, boucher, and possibly even jakob poeltl moved in the summer. gary trent jr wanting 20 million a year for 4 years they will let walk.
Alot of the wings in this draft weren't really 3 and d a lot of the ones that were better at defense were pretty bad from 3 and vice versa. The plan I imagine was to take Salaun since they were heavily linked to him and he's been around wemby since he was 15-16, once the hornets took him I think the best option was to get 2 possibly good picks in back to back drafts instead of an okay pick in a bad draft
Started watching you from MyTeam, and as I’ve grown out of that mode I would really like to start watching some more content like this! Keep it coming🙏
Wonder if Risacher will help the Hawks joke of a defense. Hard to believe how bad they were last year in certain areas. They would probably improve there ratings a bit if they closed all the strip clubs.
@@TomKite51 That's not how a big board works. Nearly every team in the league had Zaccharie Risacher at the top of their board. If the Hawks felt that Alex Sarr was the best player, he would've been at the top regardless.
Couldnt disagree with the Reed take more.
i am super high on Reed i think he will be a great player
i couldnt agree more. he isnt that good. they picked a role player 3rd
Bro is TJ McConnell 😂
@jackrydertm956 every top 10 pick is role player what's ur point
100x better than holland is crazy considering matas cant shoot either and doesnt really have any specific skill

Those picks are also _after_ Ant's extension runs out so there's a good chance he's in LA by then and those picks are _really_ high
They traded because Salaun got drafted early.
We will look back a em see the Hornets made the best pick in the draft.

ryan dunn definitely fits Phoenix needs of a wing defender
If Terrance Shannon Jr can shoot he's gonna be a great pick for Minnesota because he's gonna play defense there
compeltly disagree with the aj johnson pick, that kids gonna be something special

This draft was terrible all the top prospects are only role players
Boring. The nba is just a snorefest these days.

Also hopefully as a spurs fan, that they are storing all the picks for a HUGE trade in a year or two.

FIRST
Spurs have Blake Wesley. They do not need Dillingham. They should have taken a 3&D wing instead of a PG and trading to a team in your conference.
Alot of the wings in this draft weren't really 3 and d a lot of the ones that were better at defense were pretty bad from 3 and vice versa. The plan I imagine was to take Salaun since they were heavily linked to him and he's been around wemby since he was 15-16, once the hornets took him I think the best option was to get 2 possibly good picks in back to back drafts instead of an okay pick in a bad draft
Stephon Castle was a great selection. Spurs are targeting next years draft class with all their picks for next year.

Grimes isn’t even on our roster 😂
Grimes on Pistons now , not Raps -----
As an Okc fan I’m now 100% sure Sam Presti is allergic to PF and Centers
I think best 5 players in this draft are 1 sarr 2 dillingham 3 Holland 4 matas 5 sheppard
Come on 2 G leagues players above guys that won the NCAA tournament like Castle or Clingan no way.
Rob also is a liability on defence so 2 seems high
Also forgot Risacher
Wouldn't give Dunn more than a C. never take a non-shooter in round 1 .
Suns should have taken Scheierman and hope to outscore
Alex Sarr wasn't even in the top 2 on the Hawks' big board. It was Zaccharie Risacher #1, Reed Sheppard #2.
Only because he refused to workout for them.
@@MoeKizzy1901 We’ll see how true that is when we see them both play.
When a player doesnt want to play for your team and you have the #1 Pick in the Draft, would you put him on the top of your Big Board?
