Crazy how the pacers didn’t have a lottery pick in this draft but now have 4 of those guys on their team

[@Austin.Kilgore]

As a Pacers fan, I absolutely love it lol

[@nathandorow5345]

Turned all of their careers around too

[@db2ez_]

Tyrell Terry over Tyrese Maxey sounds crazy in hindsight 😭😭😭 these are crazy to look back on

[@cjreplay]

Take a shot every time Matt mentions Tyrell Terry

[@bookaufman9643]

The Warriors really blew their franchises future hopes out of the water with their draft picks over the last few years. Only Jonathan kuminga has any kind of good starter potential. They were in a rare opportunity to pick at the top of the draft and ended up with one of the biggest busts in the last ten years.

[@collinsnyder1525]

podz, TJD ? maybe not full starter but they have been really good

[@BOnYTB]

Not trading the Wiseman pick was a massive mistake IMO. Obv they won the chip so whatever, but they could’ve moved it for a really good young guy on their rookie deal…or something like that. I was just low on wiseman in that draft and I didn’t see how they were gonna get him the reps he needed as a super super raw prospect.

[@bookaufman9643]

@@BOnYTB if the Warriors had ever landed a really good true center then I think they would be in contention to this day but it's never worked out.

[@NathanMoon-tz2jp]

@@BOnYTBI mean in hindsight yeah they should’ve traded the pick but Wiseman was getting massive hype with his shooting touch and frame. He just didn’t have a good work ethic especially to improve his defense

[@WarrenPuffet]

They had 1 rare opportunity pick and you say they really blew their franchise because Wiseman didn’t work out? 😂 Hilarious take from a fan that couldn’t draft better

[@karlinb92]

the Tyrese Maxey reaction lol

[@NathanMoon-tz2jp]

Honestly this is a A- draft grade in hindsight. Everything was on point but the Killian Hayes and James Wiseman ones bring it down, especially the Killian Hayes one since he was a reach even back then

[@AaronHernandez-hm9ut]

I mean to be fair.. lamelo is objectively the best player to pick there but the logic was correct. Where would lamelo have fit with klay and Jordan Poole off the bench. Playing 4 guards definitely would've been an iffy rotation

[@lucalanzarini4756]

You had a lot of good grades. Draft is always so unpredictable it’s tough to do better

[@philschnaars]

Love the reactions and the initial takes, you seriously could be a draft advisor for an nba team, you hit more than you miss which is more than you can say for a bunch of nba GM’s. As always thanks for the content appreciate all the entertainment you provide

[@rome8180]

A B+ for Vassell was definitely too low. Getting him at that spot was an A. Personally, I was higher on him than I was on Patrick Williams coming out of the same school. And I'm happy to have been vindicated.

[@Obie-mt1po]

Your reactions to your Tyrell Terry takes are so funny 😆

[@bjorndesilva6023]

what sucks with Poku is that he came in so young, was having a pretty decent season last year as a guy who is a Center(who should be playing SF, like Lauri). he's only 21, which is crazy cause he's already been given up on

Can you make a video where you do a draft comparison for the 2024 draft.

[@bezllama3325]

Tbh you gave some good grades it was a tough draft because there were a lot of busts in the 20s

[@Unqualifiedtake]

There are always a lot of busts

[@hickjose]

I think nothing really counts as a bust in the 20s unless they never play in the league or play like 4 games or something. There’s value to be had, but in many ways it’s a crapshoot after the lottery (some drafts after about pick 8)

[@bezllama3325]

@@hickjose I would say that about the 30s but the 20s nah

[@hickjose]

@@bezllama3325 when you look back at picks 20-29 from any given draft usually about 4/10 play less than 150 games in the nba. 2020 actually has a better 20-29 than many others I looked at like 2010 or 2012, or even 2019

Don’t feel bad on the Hayes one, the consensus at the time was Detroit made the right pick

[@nicyee3701]

Why would you remind me of that lmao. We also passed on Sengun for that pervert out of Alabama.

[@nrbmemes2414]

The thing is if they have Haliburton they don't get the 2023 first pick and Wemby goes somewhere else. Infinite universes.

[@Andrewjs2187]

I'm not mad at all since we had Dejounte & White at the time. Yes, Haliburton is significantly better than Devin, but I can see him ultimately becoming a borderline allstar caliber player in the league which is really solid value outside the top 10.
