Less impressive considering it was '51. Muggsy Bogues is the most legendary small man IMO. 5'3" 12th overall pick, playing with all those bruising giants in the 90s, still played 14 seasons. That'll never happen again.
Love it all except disagree that Zion is an A-. Feels that way too high considering he cannot stay healthy and when he is healthy enough to play he's so overweight you find yourself just counting down the games until he's injured again. But damn if he can't ball. My Grade- B
its so hard to grade him from one of the greatest seasons by a 20 year old ever, to eating too much food. Hoping he has a great career tho he seems like a good dude
Zion is probably a right grade at what he gave for Ant and Cade, and that's incomplete. He had one of the best seasons for a 20 year old in the league but it's just very hard to gauge that when he hasn't really played a lot after that. Incomplete even as a prospect in the league is what I'd best consider him for now because he's at a crossroads where he could throw his career away or get it together and dominate

Would be interesting to see how Wiggins' grade would be now considering what he did in the season and in the finals, ultimately helping win the GSW championship.
@@dusk6159 Right like I don’t think Hakeem can be an A+ because Jordan was right behind him. Still an A because Hakeem was that good, but you missed out on the best player. Can’t be an A+
Jordan is the goat. Better defender, scorer, shooter, and better team leader than Lebron James. That’s not a knock on Lebron I think he is third behind Kareem on the all time list.
Jordan a better shooter? idk about that , especially from 3 Also , Jordan wasn’t even the best defender on his team, Pippen always took the toughest assignment, as Lebron has done in his career and James can guard multiple positions . Lebron is also a way better passer and has a higher basketball IQ
I agree with most of that. Jordan won a DPOY though which Lebron or Scottie can’t say. But shooting yeah Jordan was better. Better free throws, mid ranger jumpers. Jordan if he played today would have developed a three point shot, and even in the 90’s he was breaking finals three point records. Lebron’s on basketball Mount Rushmore, but Jordan’s dominance of his era is matched only by Bill Russel.
@@RicardoAGuitar Oh, it would be interesting. I wonder how he would justify giving lebron the MVP when his team was more talented with a worst record. Not to mention The bulls had two major player injured and still had the best record.
Standing up for Kyrie like that, respecting his mercurial ability and resume, just to immediately then give AD more than a full grade higher, is damn near egregious
Bro let his own personal bias prevent him from giving an accurate assessment of Kyrie. He deserves an A-/B+ considering he was arguably just as good as Bron in that 3-1 finals series and has had sustained success since. He has had a better career than all the B- players he mentioned. Also, considering the year Fultz just had with Orlando, he’s def has climbed to atleast a C. Overall video rating: B+
Wiggins deserves at least a c or c+, that was a harsh grade. his teams haven't gone anywhere and he's underperformed a bit but he still puts up good numbers as a 3rd option
The bottom needs an update kwame brown and anthony bennett shouldn't be on the same level. Kwame at least can keep an NBA job while anthony can't even get stay on his drafted team on more than a year.
You are wrong abt fultz. Ppl forget dude was putting up all star numbers before his gnarly injury that ended his szn. Maybe not 1st pick type player but by no means is he even comparable to everybody else put in F.
Look, im a Zion fan, but I think his rank is a little unreasonable, barely played play any game shouldn’t place him above people like Yao Ming, Derrick rose, and Anthony Davis. It would be fine if you rank him after a-, but not now.
No one is putting anyone above other players. This is a ranking based on each player's performance in the NBA for their teams not a ranking of players against each other.
@Fries he very likely will be, even with his clownshoes beliefs tainting his legacy. Nobody drafted with at least 6 All-Star selections and at least one title is out of the HoF. Nobody. The closest is Chauncey Billups, and he might never get in because his early career SUUUUUUCKED
Really dope video! Learned alot and was hype about some of my favorites. Tuff tuff list. Its crazy looking back how much better later picks were in some of those classes. You just never know what you’re getting, shoutout to Scouts!
Zion when he plays is a top 20 player in the league and a very unique player but he hasn't played that much, he right now for that is more like a B+ but if he fixes that problem then he can easily retire as an A+
If Ayton can prove last year’s playoff run and consistent 20/10 performances wasn’t a fluke he could be a B+/A-. So far this season having McGee to relieve him has kept his numbers down but will hopefully be what they need to have a good 1-2 punch to finish what they started last year.

The white guy era doesn’t count in my eyes. The NBA starts in 1976
Yeah you right, guys like bill russell wilt and oscar robertson all shouldn’t be remembered
“To sum up how great Olajuwon was, he was picked over Michael Jordan and no one gives them shit for it.” *chef’s kiss
Yeah how dare they pass on Jordan 🤣
Imagine going 1st overall but not even being the best from your school in that draft. Draft RJ keep RJ.
I hope Barry goes in depth video ranking every nfl/nba teams’ first round draft pick
How does Zion get a higher grade than Kyrie Irving? For me, he's a C as of now.
Loving the content, bro. Makes we wanna Barry McCockiner deep
Always loving this content and analysis!! Thank you for the serious content!!
Putting drose, kyrie irving and john wall on the same level is absolutely ridiculous. Kyrie is miles above both and rose is still above john wall
Zion when he plays is a top 20 player in the league and a very unique player but he hasn't played that much, he right now for that is more like a B+ but if he fixes that problem then he can easily retire as an A+
Nahhh wiggins a D grade and Ben Simmons a C+?😂😂😂
He said LeBron the goat 🐐 my man 👍👍👍
Most notably known for getting punched in the face by Kareem in your first game. lmao.
If Ayton can prove last year’s playoff run and consistent 20/10 performances wasn’t a fluke he could be a B+/A-. So far this season having McGee to relieve him has kept his numbers down but will hopefully be what they need to have a good 1-2 punch to finish what they started last year.
He got mauled in the Paint in the Playoffs, especially by Akumpo
Zion having a higher grade than kyrie is insanity you cant explain that one barry
