@@MrE_You’re severely underrating him, in my eyes he has the potential to be a 3rd best player on a championship team maybe 2nd if he gets better on the defensive end. Bro is shooting 38% from 3 with half of his shots coming off the three and he’s only a rookie give him time to refine his defense and offense and he’s gonna be a top 2-3 guy on a championship worst case scenario for him he’s a good starting role player

Also one thing to note, not only did the Warriors get a steal with Podz at the 19th pick but we got a steal at the 57th pick too with TJD!

GG Jackson is by far the biggest mistake of the draft. How he went 45th overall is something I can't comprehend.

I'm a grizz fan, I think he's good, but he has a lot of inconsistency. I get that he's very young, the youngest in the draft, but some nights he'll get below 6 points on bad efficiency theres also a rumor he vapes, if that's true he might get worse as his career progresses due to asthma.
TJD should be in the 1st Rd and a definite steal.
W for not hating on Scoot. He has played off the bench most of the year and his efficiency is a lot better recently and he has dropped 30+ multiple times with good playmaking. Can easily see 15 and 7 from him next year if Simons isn't on the team anymore (As a blazers fan I'd use him to try and get Sarr)

If Hakeem would’ve suffered injuries like Bowie did people would be saying the same shit about them for taking him at #1 even tho he was the clear choice at the time. But since he didn’t get injured and went on to be a top5 center all time nobody seems to care. Calling a decision to pass on Jordan for a SUPER high prospect center the worst draft decision ever simply because he was horribly and unluckily injured is just lazy and displays a minimal understanding of draft processes and prospects.

On draft day I was furious with Orlando's picks I think they whiffed on 2 ones But I have come around on black because I think there's something far more important with him then you could get guessed He he is a locker room blue guy everybody on the team absolutely loves the guy and will go to war with him That's something you just can't That's something you just can't find in NBA right now You wanna see how important it is look Orlando's in You wanna see how important it is look Orlando's in the 4th seed in stacked Eastern conference.

I like that format. How about a sophomore comparison on who developed and who didn't?!
i seriously didnt get how people thought picking scoot over miller was somehow a good idea. one guy relies HEAVILY on his athleticism, is basically just not made for the nba today, and the other is basically a really good 3&D player in a worst case scenario. a guy that everyone needs. and if he actually works out hes all-nba. yeah such a hard choice.

its the blazers, what do you expect. they probably have the worst draft record of all time, and in addition to that are GMed by a person who is only in it to return investment - which works best when you always play around mediocrity, filling the arena but nver straining budget to actually build a winning roster. picking scoot wasnt about talent, it was about offending dame enough to make him leave.

Can you have your own projected mock draft of the the 2024 rookie draft.
Scoot is a good pick by Portland and he will develop as a good point guard and maybe a muiltple time all star Definitely would need another season to develop more maybe but he is the point guard for the future of the blazers
NBA aint ready for my guy Trace Jackson-Davis to get more minutes man got 3 blocks on Giannis and 2 blocks in a row then a lob dunk😤😤
Thompson twins went 4 and 5 not 6 and 7
Trace Jackson-Davis gotta be the steal for me last pick in the draft and plays with great maturity and I would argue (as a slightly biased warriors fan) could be in the lottery in a redraft he just hasn’t got a lot of minutes
Love the content, but at 2:27 you have the Thompson twins going 6th and 7th overall when they went 4th and 5th.
Thank god my Mavs lost to the Bulls late last year. If the Mavs would have won that game, they pick 11, Chicago picks 10 and since it’s not a top 10 pick, Dallas loses that pick to NY (for the KP trade). NY, GS, or the Lakers would have scooped up Liveley. He is the perfect fit for the Mavs.
Drafting bowie over mj really wasn't portland's biggest problem during that time. Their biggest what if was not getting sabonis when they drafted him. That could have genuinely turned the 90's into blazers era. More than mj would have given their roster.
that double oop was nasty af
Forgot Gradey, rough start to the season but he's gonna be good
Coulibaly at 7 was a great pick for the Wizards, they even want to build around him, pushing him to 14 is madness

Honestly, I totally love, amen Thompson I think he fits the Rockets perfectly. He’s an excellent defender, and a really good playmaker. I think both of them can be all star level types of players I mean honestly, both of them are all ready already on all defensive team were the type of defenders, and with the way the Rockets play, I can totally see him being their point guard of the future and honestly, I totally think his jumpshot is fixable I remember a time when Kawhi Leonard was horrible and shooting in like two years in San Antonio he became average to above average three-point shooter. It takes time to mold these guys.
Bowie knee problem started at Kentucky when tried for a dunk or tried to get a rebound landed on the knee the wrong way and never got it scoped played the rest of the season on a bum knee & the blazers paid for it thinking Drexler was it
both twins go over scoot in a redraft. more talented in the long term, and already all defense
AM, I like the picks but you missed Trayce Jackson-Davis!
I'm gonna say that the biggest draft mistake was TJD. He was drafted at 59th and is easily a top 20 pink with how he has been playing.
Why do we go from #1, #2 and then #3 to #9? That order is kinda cursed

Im soooooo slow 😂 this whole time I have been confusing Podziemski with Nico Manning 😂 when he said “warriors rookie”, I was like, didn’t he get drafted in the same draft as wiseman ? 😂 bruh, Podz is a MONSTER!!!!! Whole time I thought I was watching a 3 year player! Wild! I saw a video before the draft a KZreadr said Podz dad told him to look out for his son in the nba that he’ll be really good…… turns out dad was right!
Never forgot the feedback about Luka 😂😂
How can scoot have time to develop and not be a bust the Thompson twins are ? You gotta give all young nba prospects a chance to develop it’s impossible to tell who is gonna be a star or not in this league now because load management and other circumstances chillout
I think, at least for Amen (goes for Ausar as well, but he plays more SF), I can say that he's possibly the best rookie defensive guard I've ever seen. Now that he's getting legit minutes, he's racking up rebounds, blocks and steals like nobody's business, and is shutting down people like Devin Booker already. Not to mention his driving/finishing allows him to still score. He may never be a particular great 3P shooter, but he does almost everything else in the game of basketball at such a high level (as a *rookie*) that he's on track to be a star in this league. I love Cam and think he's gonna be amazing, but I'd still have Amen over him in a redraft. Just slightly though.
2023 draft is so special with so many talented rookies just as 2002 draft with LeBron James and D wade and other special players. Like if the universe sends every good draft every 21 years
Hawkins is underrated. He's shooting good already on his rookie year
That is definitely a solid lottery redraft, I can’t hate
If Podz doesn’t take a charge he gets blown by and he’s a low to the ground player , Kerr is over playing him which is helping his confidence
What about Jackson-Davis?
How about Trayce Jackson-Davis tho he was also a steal
one thing I would say is I feel like amen and asaur is a good pick for them because of how fit they is on a roster. Amen got pick for the spot that kpj leave after they trade them. Asaur is a high level of defensive player who can grab 10 rebounds per game, he is the smaller version of aaron gordon at the dunker spot by how he grab those off reb. Amen on the other hand is a triple double potential player who can develop as a westbrook type of player that can be houston future point guard . So I don't think that they should go lower.
Blazers had Drexler and no one predicted MJ would be greatest every, though he did show that potential.
Love keyante George, glad he gets the respect he deserves
I suppose with the Blazers, time will tell how good “Scoot Henderson will be.” He certainly has the talent and confidence to become special. He’s trying to play the toughest position in basketball as a teenager. Give him time. I’ve been a Blazers fan over 50 years…. I’m glad to see him “healthy at the end of the season” (see Oden) Glad you said what you said. Nice video
