Atlanta what a mistake !
One of the top 5 class
we love anfernee simons
If only I knew now….what I didn't then🤣
Luka
We ❤ Red Velvet in Sactown!!!
best draft ever
In 10 years everyone will remember this draft as the most talented of all times… many big names!
King must pick luka
Lol trae yuong. Goes to dallas
Time Lord biggest steal
What a steal Robert Williams was for the Celtics
One of the best draft ever.
luka Doncic, Trae Young, DeAndre Ayton, Mikal Bridges, Miles Bridges, Jarren Jackson Jr., Shai Gilgeos Alexander, and etc
If that Luka/Trae trade never happened, what would the league look like?
23 players were drafted before Simons
niccee
Marvin bagley no.2….
I'm just confused why the Mavs needed to trade for Luka when they've got a chance to pick him first before Trae young? 🤔🤔🤔
Kevin Knox was obviously not the pick so the boos are honestly warranted. Bro was by far the worst player in basically the whole top 20. And i’m a Knicks fan and actually really like Knox and felt like he deserved more playing time but he wasn’t the right pick at the time and has proved that

Honestly Trae should be at 2 but not mad at shai
Bro Robert Williams can't catch the ball and can't even dribble he's too i respect his defensive skill but at #8?
Shai>trae and it’s not even close
Simons is so good you could argue him going 4th(or 3rd if ur a trae hater🫣)
I feel like every draft since 18 has been amazing with guys coming in and contributing right away
shai over trae is wild
I think Trae is still the second best player in this draft despite his shooting percentages this season but I definitely think if you’re drafting based on team needs then Shai is the correct pick at #2 for the Kings.
2003 and 2018 are very similar
LBJ – Luka
Darko – Bagley
Bosh – Ayton
Wade – Trae
Melo – SGA
Korver – Mikal Bridges
Kaman – JJJ
Hot take, Luka in Phoenix would've driven Booker out by now… 🤷
You can’t not say luka but if they had him I doubt they made a finals
WCJ ahead of Williams easily. Especially us knowing his injuries and constant,y being out. Likely is going to be a career long thing. WCJ’s offense is way ahead of Williams to make his still good D, but not DPOY level (maybe just yet, who knows one day) , enough to push him ahead of time lord. No hate on Rob just in this comp WCJ wins now then and potential wise still imo
Crazy to think the bulls could have a lineup like lonzo, Zach Lavine, 3-4 of franz lauri or Patrick Williams and Wendell carter at 5, whatever the bulls do next that should haunt them for a long time
Recency bias is a real think
2018 draft is stacked.
as a memphis fan i think we would still end up taking triple j over ayton.
JJJ> Ayton
6:27😂😂
I’m not arguing the logic behind taking Shai at #2 but since we have hindsight in reality, what’s the difference between them taking Shai and Tyrese? They traded Halliburton for a big so what would stop them from still making that same decision down the road by trading Shai or Dearon?
3cone I love all your videos & content but stop it man SGA is not going higher than Trae .. he lead his team to the conference finals at 23 with no all star help .. be serious man
I don't like the Colin Sexton draft. He has the size of the point guard but doesn't have the capabilities of one.
