8 BIGGEST MISTAKES IN THE LAST 10 NBA DRAFTS

nine biggest mistakes in the last 10 NBA drafts number nine the Golden State Warriors in the 2020 draft the Warriors had the number two pick Anthony Edwards goes number one and the Warriors have two amazing options for Melo ball and Tyrese Halliburton Halliburton is good but lamello is on another level brother he can play complaining guard and when Steph goes to the bench he can move to point guard the perfect fit for the Warriors but the Warriors do something shocking they say no we are drafting James Wiseman because we need a center what when you have the number two pick you draft the best player not what position you need imagine if in 2003 the Cavalier said we already have a small forward we don't need LeBron so what happened to James Wiseman it played terrible then he got hurt missing a whole season then he played terrible again and now he's on the piston and lamelo ball he's averaging 24 points and made an All-Star team he is the future of the Charlotte Hornets number eight the Philadelphia 76ers in the 2017 draft the 76ers had the number one overall pick Joel it was their Superstar but they needed one more store to be a championship Contender Jason Tatum is a comfortable he is the other options are Lonzo ball and Mark hell full with the 76ers already have Ben Simmons that point guard and this is when Simmons was actually good so they don't need a point guard Tatum is the perfect fit Simmons Tatum and embiid the perfect big three all they need to do is press the button for Tatum but no the 7 96ers say let's get another point guard you know what's better than one point guard who can't shoot the ball two point guards who can't shoot the ball and they draft more killful free thinking Philadelphia 10 out of 10 intelligence so what happened markelle fultz forgot how to shoot a basketball and is now on Orlando is the top five player in the NBA in NBA every season averaging 30 points how can we trust the process in your process since number seven the Denver Nuggets this one is absolutely insane it is the 2017 draft and the nuggets have the 13th pick they already have Jamal Murray and Nicola jokic one more star and they would be the best team in the NBA Donovan Mitchell is available I know what you're thinking the Nuggets drafted somebody else right the Nuggets actually drafted Donovan Mitchell it's official they have a big three or do they out of nowhere five minutes after drafting Donovan Mitchell the Nuggets decided to trade him to the Utah Jazz you couldn't let him play one game Denver you only gave him five minutes in return for Donovan Mitchell they got Trey Lyles Donovan Mitchell became a superstar on the Jazz their franchise player making three All-Star team in five years and scoring 26 points a game and Trey Lyles the Nuggets kept him for two seasons realize he was awful and then released him so they traded Donovan Mitchell For Nothing number six Denver Nuggets again are you kidding me Denver in the 2015 draft the Nuggets had the number seven pick and they needed a guard the best guards available are Devin Booker and Terry Rozier Booker was supposed to be a top five pick it's a miracle he's still available he is the obvious choice but the nuggets say no sir we don't want a shooting guard we need a point guard okay fine so at least they take Terry Rozier right he's still pretty good no they do the worst thing possible they say no Booker no Rozier and they draft a manual moodier why is it because he can make threes is it because he's a great passer no no no they drop because he was very fast I'm about to blow up they skipped one of the best shooting guards of Our Generation because Emmanuel moodier was fast Emmanuel murier was so bad he made only 36 of his shots the worst in the entire league and he was traded to the Knicks Devin Booker is a three-time All-Star scoring 28 points per game and is the best shooting guard in the NBA today Denver if I see you again in this video I'm gonna blow up number five the Philadelphia 76ers it's the 2020 draft and the 76ers had the number one pick there are two stars available Jalen Brown and Brandon Ingram both of them have the ability to turn the 76ers into a super team all this 76ers need is an elite scorer and these are the guys you want and the 76ers draft women but Ben Simmons that can't hit a three the Ben Simmons that shoot 30 from the free throw line what's wrong with you Philadelphia Jalen Brown is the future of the Celtics Brandon Ingram is the future of the Pelicans and Ben Simmons is on the net playing terrible congratulations Philadelphia for nothing number four the Milwaukee box it's the 2014 draft and Milwaukee has the number two overall pick Andrew Wiggins goes number one and Joelle embiid is available the seven foot College Superstar who can make three-pointers the perfect player to build a franchise around but Milwaukee says we already have a center we have Zaza pachulia who this guy the reason you let him be in beat Milwaukee think clearly when Milwaukee said nope Joel embiid is overrated anyways we have another Superstar we want to draft it's exact Levine is it at least Julius Randle no no no no the Box draft Jabari Parker one of the biggest Plus in NBA history it makes no sense because embiid was obviously the better player and beat went number three to the 76ers becoming an MVP Jabari Parker is not even in the NBA anymore he's 20 28 years old the prime age of an NBA player and nobody wants him moving on to the top three number three Milwaukee bucks I don't believe it and it's in the in the same draft what did you do this time Milwaukee in the 2014 Draft the box also had the 36th overall pick now they wanted to draft a big man and guess who's available Nicola jokicz the two-time MVP is right there it's a miracle from the basketball gods that he is still available because jokic was supposed to be a first round pick but you won't believe it because jokic was a center the same position as Zaza pachulia the Bucks wanted a power forward instead and they draft Johnny O'Brien we could have had Giannis and joke it on the same team but instead we got Johnny O'Brien who averaged three points per game in his entire career while he's out of the NBA Nicola jokic is winning championship for the Nuggets this could have been you Milwaukee Birds too the sacramental Kings close your eyes King's fans because this is gonna make you sad in the 2018 draft the Kings had the number two overall pick DeAndre ayton went number one and there are two superstars available Trey young and Luca doncic both of them would transform the Kings into an incredible team do they take the European legend or the elite three-point scorer they take neither of them they want to draft a power forward are you okay we still have hope because Jaron Jackson Jr is also available it's not as good as Luca but he's still at all star still would be a good pick but the Kings say no we are drafting Marvin Bagley the first five picks of the draft were All-Stars except Marvin Bagley how do you mess this is of Sacramento Luka dogchuk is a top three player in the NBA Trey young scores 30 points per game and Jaron Jackson just won Defensive Player of the Year and Marvin Bagley he's not even on the team anymore he's on the Pistons the Kings could have had the Aaron Fox and Luca they would have been Unstoppable number one wait before number one honorable mention the New York Knicks it is still the 2018 draft the Knicks have the number nine overall pick and they are lucky because a player who was supposed to go top five fell down to number nine and his name is Shay kilches Alexander another gift from the basketball Gods who want to make the Knicks good again and the Knicks look at this beautiful GIF of one of the best point guards in the NBA and they throw wait in the trash as they decide to draft Kevin Knox why Shay was the obvious pick what were you thinking the Knicks thought Kevin Knox is big and strong that's why we want to draft him what you know who else is big and strong bobonjanovic and he scores two points per game that's not how you draft players in New York Kevin Knox has been on five different teams in five years because every team realizes this guy stinks Shay Gill just Alexander who I guess isn't so big and strong is scoring 32 points per game he made the old NBA first team which means he was the best point guard in the League this season beating Steph Curry John Moran and Damian Lillard he is the of Oklahoma it could have been you New York but you just had to mess it up and number one the moment you've all been waiting for the Dallas Mavericks it is the 2013 draft and the Mavericks have the number 13 overall pick they wanted Steven Adams but the Thunder took him at number 12. no problem because we have another great big man that you can take he's pretty good I mean his name is only Giannis antet oh yeah a big three of Vince Carter Giannis and Dirk Nowitzki the Mavericks would be a championship team but what did the Mavericks say we like people who can shoot and Giannis can't shoot what are you kidding me so who do they take instead the Mavericks draft Kelly Olynyk the most average player in NBA history all because he could make threes so instead of arguably the best player in the NBA today they took Mr six points per game and guess what Giannis is winning MVPs and championships with Milwaukee while the Mavericks are missing the Playoffs these are all mistakes that did happen but what about the opposite the greatest trades that almost happened let's find out [Music] foreign
