@@august6281over the various podcast episodes i watched he acknowledges what he did wrong but he also made some great points. A lot of those workouts don't measure or even show what he could do on the court. His stories are hilarious tho
It worked out for him though. By being a second round pick he was able to sign a massive deal as a free agent years before he would've as a lottery pick
Yeah but they're not going to give him the complete recognition because he played mainly for Detroit and we all know that when it comes to giving Detroit ANY type of credit for ESPN, it's like pulling teeth!😬.. these fools just not start to give the Lions recognition and even STILL some aren't convinced lol.. but they know whatever is working for Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes must be doing pretty good because they see a progression since their arrival
Nick Van Exel. He was a steel for the Lakers when he was drafted 37th in the 2nd Rd in 1993. Nick was a NBA All-Star in 1998, spent 5 yrs with the Lakers, 4 with Denver Nuggets, and last 4 as a journeyman
Another honorable 2nd round mention that should be included also from the 1970 draft is Calvin Murphy. Before the younger Isaiah Thomas he at 5-9 was the best scorer among players 6-0 and under. He walked so IT, AI and others could run.
Jokic has reached the highest peak of any player in the 2000s, if he can keep it going for a few more years then he firmly puts himself in the goat convo.
It goes to show that any player that entered the NBA draft has the chance to be great... It boils down to their commitment, passion and resilience to push through regardless of any setbacks that they have have at the beginning of their career.
Gil purposefully tanked his draft stock because if he was drafted in the 2nd round then his rookie contract would be shorter, and he could get a max quicker.
Joker can pass the ball like he has eyes in the back of his head, he can block, he can push his was way through a wall of Defenders and if his team can't score. He just does it himself and score even 3 pointers. No wonder he is a MVP in the finals.
Remember in “Money Ball” when the old head recruiters were all SO hung up on jaw lines and good personalities that they couldn’t actually evaluate players effectively? That’s exactly how the NBA still works a lot of the time.
The disrespect on The Joker is real considering this channel forgot to mention that he's also a world champion, Finals MVP, and led all in 3 major stats in this year's playoffs. 🃏💯
7:35 On the outside Michael is laughing. But on the inside, he took it personally. Something tells me this Kerr fellow might make a good coach someday.
@@alexmammoth2916 think he meant, whoever was their best player since Larry Bird, progression wise. So when IT was there Pierce wasn’t. So IT was the Celtics best player at the time.
Isaiah Thomas is a guy you put on your team if you have the chance. it was ridiculous how some teams treated him because of height. he was an absolute alpha
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16
It's bullshit how they dont technically recognise that, he didn't win those stats because of games played, Joel played less but scored close to Trae so it works out as a higher PPG and he got the official scoring title.
Funny thing in NBA live 07 back when i was a kid i use to make a lot of created players that i made up, coincidence is I made a Marc Gasol without even knowing Pau had a brother and his name was mark still makes me feel wierd when i remember that lol
It comes down to being able to put the ball in or the hoop or putting a team mate in a position to do so. Not how fast or how high you can jump. When you think about it ,the easiest shot to make in basketball is the dunk!! Spectacular but easy!! Remember ,most of these guys are giants!!God !I’d take Shack on any time on the fowl line😅.
@@calamorta I disagree about the unnatural movement, you cam say Stocktom was in his landing area But I do agree om the second thing lol back then you went to play and that's it
Manu wasn’t Spanish. He was Argentinian. Apart from that you got everything else about him right. Manu was also the only player who got his jersey retired.
It’s not a crazy concept. The average NBA player is 6’7. So if you’re a big man who plays the 4/5 the whole game you actually are undersized. Draymond had perfect timing though. As basketball started becoming position-less Draymond started making a name for himself in the NBA
Facts hell take a look at the 2013 NBA Draft Giannis for example (I know he got selected in the 1st round but I just want to prove that alot more all stars and Hall Of Famers are taken outside the the top 10 rather than being taken in the top 10)
Ginobili was great for national team of Argentina even before he was drafted , beating the powerhouse countries, but NBA teams where still skeptical of him that he ended up being picked 3rd from the last😂..
I noticed that in basketball talent is not subtile but obvious. In hockey, soccer or other sports, the best at 14 or 15 are rarely the best at the highest level.
Toni Kukoc came pretty close to averaging 20 points per game in 2001 while playing for an awful Hawks team. This is supposed to be a list of superstars though and neither Toni Kukoc or Steve Kerr were even All-Stars so I'm not sure how they qualify here.
“Multiple MVPs” is such an understatement for Joker, he’s also NBA champ, Finals MVP, and breaker of records that stood for decades.
gv
Don't forget he also runs professional horse racing stables.
@@Dr.Megladon Honestly did not know that
@@Dr.Megladon Also don't forget he treats basketball as a 9-5 day job
New video on Zion’s scandal on my channel! 😳
Damn Gilbert Arenas seemed to be on a mission to jinx and tank his own draft stock much as possible like a speedrun lol
the crazy thing is even now at 40+yrs old, he still dont understand why. He was even mad at RJ now.
@@august6281 who’s rj
@@DopeBoyDreamz Richard Jefferson. They are close friends even before NBA so he understood and witness some of Gil's shenanigans.

Ben Wallace went undrafted.
NBA Champ , 4 times DPOY.
And Hall of Fame.
The only undrafted NBA player to make the Hall (not counting college-ONLY greats).

@@troliskimosko DAMN STRAIGHT!😂
the title said 2nd round draft picks lol
2:23 "Gil had to sleep in a arena" 😂 he knew what he was doing 🤣
😂
he really got drafted during an taco bell commercial. 😂
ESPN had been hated the jokers since the first day
they care more about showing ads than they do showing a future hall of famer getting drafted
And of course making the bags joker doesn't give f...
The NBA is a part time job for jokic
What do you mean?
Bro is gonna own an apple farm
Bros gonna sleep his way to an all star game

Funny how Jokic hasn't been in the Best Basketball Player in the World conversation when in fact he should've won 3 straight league MVPs
Good afternoon..excellent player..2 straight mvp's..peace
i’m saying, they just couldn’t accept the fact of him winning again.
instead they gave Embiid a pity MVP
@@swaglike3792 Embiid did good in regular season man sure playoffs not the best but mvp based on season
@@ADarkos true statement by you
Triple single will never get old😂😂😂

God bless! Jesus saves ✝️🤍

Are you people on crack.
He won one ring
Michael Redd for the bucks was a 💎 gem. Anyone remember that guy ?? Just a smooth shooting lefty
He was my favorite during the 00’s
Probably the only buck player I can think of between Kareem and Giannis
we know its u unc
I remember redd
Now the Joker is an NBA Champion and Finals MVP
Great video just shows all it takes is dedication
Joker brought my Nuggets a title after fifty plus years. A true legend
47 years actually
31 pts and 11 asts a game would be nuts in today's NBA, but how much tougher the defense was when Nate played makes it even more impressive
It's 34 pts
Dončić has 34.3 PPG 9.8 APG, that is very close my friend
It goes to show that any player that entered the NBA draft has the chance to be great... It boils down to their commitment, passion and resilience to push through regardless of any setbacks that they have have at the beginning of their career.
Gil purposefully tanked his draft stock because if he was drafted in the 2nd round then his rookie contract would be shorter, and he could get a max quicker.
Maybe he saw his competition in the league and realized most improved player was the only award he could gun for
@@victorvaughan2590 fr. He not dumb.
@@victorvaughan2590I mean that’s somethin’.
Where did he say this cause i don't remember him saying this at all
Source?
jokic is by far the best 2nd rnd pick oat
closest is manu
Manu was one of the best players in the world in 2000s, definitely top 10, but yes, Jokić is better than Manu ever was.
God.. Joker's story is so good and inspirational.
Joker can pass the ball like he has eyes in the back of his head, he can block, he can push his was way through a wall of Defenders and if his team can't score. He just does it himself and score even 3 pointers. No wonder he is a MVP in the finals.

Nonstop should go in the 2nd round
jokic got his revenge. he treats NBA like his sidechick but still won the championship 💀
The lesson is learned to respect everyone . Nobody knows what they bring to us .
Jokic is sleeping while he was drafted. Dude really don't give a F!😂
7:35 On the outside Michael is laughing. But on the inside, he took it personally. Something tells me this Kerr fellow might make a good coach someday.
Isaiah was my favourite player and I will always hate the Ltics 🤷🏽♂️ for how dirty they did their best player since arguably Larry Bird
you think IT was better than Poop'd the Pants Pierce? This take is bad and you should feel bad
@@alexmammoth2916 think he meant, whoever was their best player since Larry Bird, progression wise. So when IT was there Pierce wasn’t. So IT was the Celtics best player at the time.

Paul Millsap was one of the 2nd round gems as well
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16
Please make a video about Jordan Clarkson because he was a late 2nd round pick too, but he's doing well right now
sorry for my english
Im surprise Taco Bell doesn't have a meal after Jokic lol
5:46 he not the only one anymore
Unmmm actually Nate isn’t the only player to have the most points and assists as in the 2021-2022 Trae young did it!
It's bullshit how they dont technically recognise that, he didn't win those stats because of games played, Joel played less but scored close to Trae so it works out as a higher PPG and he got the official scoring title.
That thumnail is so good, u made JOKIC look handsome.
Didn't think it was possible
lmao putting I. Thomas near Kevin Hart is just hilarious, I thought how did he get so big??
jalen brunson and jokic are the prime examples
Do the top 10 best players from the 2023 NBA Playoffs
I think jokic is already the best center
I loved Gil as a Player. And IT was a damn inspiration.
the gilbert arenas story is actually so dope wtf
When he mentioned Kerr I died "a skinny unathletic white guy" 🤣
Adam silver sounds zesty af when he’s announcing isiah Thomas
Funny thing in NBA live 07 back when i was a kid i use to make a lot of created players that i made up, coincidence is I made a Marc Gasol without even knowing Pau had a brother and his name was mark still makes me feel wierd when i remember that lol
This is s very fascinating.
This one got a lot of things wrong but the things it got right were very informative. I give it a B+.
jOKER SAYS THAT " BASKETBALL IS NOT THE MAIN THING IN MY LIFE" HAHA SO HUMBLE MVP
Bill was being honest and playing with them
"Geno-Billy" 😂😂😂
W video like all ways nonstop sports
Good afternoon..did i miss willis Reed????? 1964 second round 4 the knicks...
Do the best players from this years playoffs
How iconic arenas said he wanted to be a pimp and ended up in Oakland 😂
Pretty cool how NBA players have access to use the team facility 24x7

That Dennis Rodman background info is wayyyy off. Other than that, the video is good.
7:30 Man Jordan was dirty. Look at the kick he had on Stockton. Never noticed that before.
He was on the air...
@@emilioreyes4159
Completely unnatural foot movement
Crazy how Stockton didn't even dare to complain. Nowadays players barely get touched and go to the ground.
@@calamorta I disagree about the unnatural movement, you cam say Stocktom was in his landing area
But I do agree om the second thing lol back then you went to play and that's it
He is already a legend for achievement as second round draft pick
Manu wasn’t spanish btw, he is Argentinian i think
“Spanish-speaking”
👍
Sounds like Gilbert was just hilarious. Had he won anything he would be known as the funniest nba player ever.
Manu wasn’t Spanish. He was Argentinian. Apart from that you got everything else about him right. Manu was also the only player who got his jersey retired.
HISpanic, not Spanish.
But I agree NOT the same.
It was “spanish-speaking”
"Spanish speaking" meaning he spoke Spanish not that he was from Spain
Listening comprehension is important
He said "another Spanish-speaking".
Now watch Jordan walsh having an insane career! kid got heart and energy
A honorable 2nd round is Willis Reed he’s the first 2nd rounder to win MVP and he won 2 championships
Imagine being 6'7'' and still lacking height in the NBA
It’s not a crazy concept. The average NBA player is 6’7. So if you’re a big man who plays the 4/5 the whole game you actually are undersized. Draymond had perfect timing though. As basketball started becoming position-less Draymond started making a name for himself in the NBA
Nikola Jokic part time job NBA , he care a lot more about his horses in Serbia 😅😂😅😂😅😂
What would be the equivalent of a 2nd pick in basketball in terms of the nfl draft
Joker rules, but best passing big man? You have to consider Sabonis and Bird if you classify Bird as a big man.
Brother he lock 4 yrs ago ``the best big ever`` thing,now he is in the conversation in any position as the best ever.
bid was definitely not a big man and jokic is definitely better than sabonis at passing
Arenas dropping like that was probably a good reality check for him at the time
You forgot Tony Parker brother
Gilbert Arenas answering I want to be an international pimp is just hilarious. Dumb as hell, but hilarious
1:12 😂😂
"International pimp" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Plz more videos plz plz plz
Funny thing is that second round picks are sometimes better than first round picks
I agree with you
Facts hell take a look at the 2013 NBA Draft Giannis for example (I know he got selected in the 1st round but I just want to prove that alot more all stars and Hall Of Famers are taken outside the the top 10 rather than being taken in the top 10)

Someone tell me why Draymond has always looked 40 years old😂
the real GOAT
5:36 POV: *Trae young*' in 2K be like💀💀💀
Me thinking Isaiah Thomas looks so short and here I am shorter than him😅
Lol
So, what would be the probabilities of drafting an MVP winner in the 2nd round of the NBA Draft? That sounds like an even more interesting premise.
I noticed that in basketball talent is not subtile but obvious. In hockey, soccer or other sports, the best at 14 or 15 are rarely the best at the highest level.
Joker got Kia
MVP in a horse pen
I think taco bell should pay jokic for the additional fame hahaha
How could you forget Nick Van Exel?????
If Gil didnt get injured and wasnt immature.. he coulda been him 🔥🔥
Toni Kukoc came pretty close to averaging 20 points per game in 2001 while playing for an awful Hawks team. This is supposed to be a list of superstars though and neither Toni Kukoc or Steve Kerr were even All-Stars so I'm not sure how they qualify here.
Yeah but you don’t know anything about basketball so your stupid opinion doesn’t count.
*I want to be an international pimp 😂 that got me."*
honerable mention for Jimmy butler. last pick of the first round.
Steve Kerr came up and I had to recheck the title of the vid
Good silent scout from denver management
gg jackson will be here too
Bro rly called 67 draymond “shirt and chubby”
ginobili is from argentina, why u said he was spanish too?
Marc Gasol is also a second pick.
