gil got cooked. remember during the draft gil was hating on edey, refuses to admit he's wrong.

[@ElishaPonkratjevs]

Gil was wrong about Edey, and Edey is playing well. But his point on age made sense at least to me. Kinda similar to the time value of money. A dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow. All things being the same, a 19 year old is more valuable than a 22 year old. Although in reality no one is exactly the same. Edey is competing against fellow 22 year olds who have 3 years worth of NBA experience, while the 19 year olds in his draft class have 3 years of development to get to or exceed Edey's current level. In other words, they have more potential. But, it's also a gamble. There is no guarantee that they will get to Edey's level in 3 years, but it's a gamble many teams are willing to take. On the other hand, there is also value in drafting a 22 year old that you can help your team immediately, which I think describes the Grizzlies. Not all teams have time to develop players for later down the line. It depends on the organization.

[@officerricky3230]

@@ElishaPonkratjevs his point doesn’t make sense cause is not a linear thing. Is not THAT guaranteed that he’ll be better by the time he is that age. That logic is usually reserve for all time level prospects, like Wemby. Most regular players can go either way as they get older

[@masonmason1063]

I feel like Gil was right about the whole argument. If there are teams that needed a center for there team and the collegiate player of the year is a center and also is a senior why not draft him??I get exactly what he means by that and the age makes complete sense yea you never know the outcome or upside from either player but for now what teams will see is younger players who were drafted before or on the same year as edey that are having around the same numbers or right below if not higher than his averages. Where he’s wrong is saying edey isn’t a problem bc he’s showing he is everyone has bad games and even if you played all 4 years of college the NBA is still a different atmosphere

Here is the man point that no one brought up that could destroy Gil’s ridiculous argument. Zach Edey has only been playing basketball since he was 15.

[@Mbodia]

Lexie has sex appeal

[@lionelsmith4755]

So what Gil is saying really doesn't make sense to yall. He is saying the league is taking the gamble on young potential over older established players. The NBA is a business and teams are drafting for long term. If this was not true, why would a team in need of a center not draft Edey?

[@Geronimo410]

Cuz he 22 😂😂 they don't understand the conversation

[@nashgatu]

Kenyon shouting "coz they wanted to" is annoying. I guess Cleveland drafting LeBron first was because they wanted to not because he was the best pick

[@tjdastunna7563]

Say the 4th option on the team should be avg 20pt and 10rebs is even more nasty 🤣🤣

[@dmorang4684]

Age is hardly mentioned. They just state the draft class. So they're both year one's. Gil is disappointing at times

[@brando405okc]

Kyle Kuzma came in after three years in college and average 16. Gil has a point.

[@ZoraDelaney]

Did Kuzma average that through his first 8 games, or his rookie season in general? Edey has only played 8 games so far.....

[@rod8706]

Gil is right. They picked a 19yo over 22yp due to Potential they are projecting at 22 the kid will be better and still 3 years younger.

[@cooperkodi33]

Exactly

[@keamponsah11]

Right. I really don't get the confusion tbh lol

[@Ihussleopm]

@@keamponsah11your missing the point the age has nothing to do what how good they both are NOW

[@donaldcross602]

Comparing age to age isn't the move. They are on the same contract so Edey is cheaper and more experienced. You cant expect evaluate past the contract because you could be investing in someone who won't even be there after their first contract. Injury, off/on court issues, ect. 23 or 18 you have them on the papers for the same amount of time. The 18 year old could be 2 years and out the league same as the 23 year old.

[@SychoMedia]

Gil makes perfect sense.. Comparing a 23 year old rookie to a 19 year old rookie isn’t fair. He should be compared to his peers such as Jalen Green, Chet, Lamelo etc.

[@dwmfsa5]

You're just dumb

[@ZoraDelaney]

And comparing a 19-year-old PRO baller (Rissacher played three years in the French league) to a 22-year-old amateur ALSO is not fair. This is Rissacher's fourth year as a pro, so he should be compared to HIS pro peers.

Cmon Gil😭😭he avg one more point as a center playing ina team wit Ja Morant while dude ona WIZARDS where they can play whatever ball they want😭

[@LokexSkii]

Gil bringing up age. Players rarely stay with one team their whole career. So when drafting a player, it’s not about age but what can I get outta this player for 7-10 years if they even stay that long. So by this metric, whether I get you at 19 or 22 it won’t really matter if you don’t stay with my team your whole career

[@Gordoh20]

How do they not get what Gil is saying? If Zack was drafted at 19 years old and developed in the nba he would be averaging way better numbers at 22 years old with 3 years experience.

[@kevinv8952]

It’s simple if you’re a team that is already somewhat built and need someone to play a role right out of college they will draft older players, but if you’re a team in any kinda rebuild you’re going to draft younger so they can grow with other young pieces, grizzlies are in contender mode so Zach is a good fit. Zach ceiling is probably a poor mans Lopez but that’s solid around a team that has their main guys.

[@darnellharris159]

The centers drafted before Eddy was based on potential not skills level, and sometimes it works but most times it doesn’t

[@oidinkdeylikeme]

I fukin love this show 😂😂 … the best crashouts ever

[@GumbyPU]

Haven’t read all the comments, but some things to consider: Edey has only played basketball for 7-8 years. Most of these other kids have 10+ years in by 19. Many of the European players coming in have been playing professionally since they were 16. Edey is the 4th or 5th option on offense if he’s starting. Glad Kenyon mentions the diff between guards and big men in terms of how many points you can get.

[@MaceWorldMafia]

[@goku6414]

[@moyosoredada3109]

Lexie has the best point here, it doesn't matter if they rookie contract is the same length, because at the end of it they are going to be extended or cut based on production. Only the really special talents are going to be given that time to develop

[@LeetraviusMcKay-q6m]

Wait a minute, so Gil gets mad when fans criticize Bronny, but he doesn’t even want to stand on what he said?
