Williams not playing Ivey more earlier in the year due to defensive concerns always baffled me. It’s not like the rest of the team was a stellar defensive unit 😂
It's tough with owners. If they think they know a lot about basketball, they tend to hire GMs they can manipulate. That takes them into Jerry Jones territory, where they're the shadow GM, paying a guy for a year to ignore his advice. If they know they're really just casual fans with a lot of money, they tend to look for "a basketball man" for their GM. That can be construed to be humility on the part of a billionaire, which is good, but if they screw up on their GM pick, they're going to be talked into writing huge checks for horrible contracts for "can't miss" free agents who...miss. Also, basketball owners are uniformly really rich, and they didn't get that way by being passive. They got that way by knowing when to act, that fortune favors the bold, and strong action may look like recklessness to some, but when it works out it looks like genius. They also got that way by listening to their advisors. But an NBA team is not an industrial process. Players aren't innovative ways of creating a good or service. They're just guys, and no matter how much people love talking about analytics, the one thing that drives them is emotion. So, when the demand comes from everywhere, fans, the coach, the GM, to "do something," an owner actually thinks he has to do something. And that's how they got rich, by doing the right thing at the right time. But what if the answer is really "don't do anything?" What if you have a core of good players who have gone through the tribulations of losing and feel like comrades in arms? What if the answer is to say to the team, to the coach, to the city, "These are my guys. We're going to win with them?" It's possible, no? You can prune the malcontents, maybe pick up someone as a midlevel exception or an expiring, but going all in is not always the answer. Phoenix went all in. They got broomed in the first round and they have no draft picks until two elections from now. The Rudy Gobert trade seems like a good idea now, but what if Denver wins the series? You mortgaged your future for a playoff win and some fleeting hopes. Bottom line: an owner should know when to do nothing and have the balls to make that decision. Few do.
The GM and coach have had 1 year respectively.....right? Give it time. Honestly team could use more fuctional vets and maybe idk to not absolutely get screwed by the draft lotto. Like can someone do the math for them to hit 5 for 3 years on a row despite having the best odds at #1.
As a Knicks fan, it’s been a joy to see them go from NBA hell, to bringing in a competent front office (who had a vision), bringing in a coach who is in line with that vision, and then making moves and bringing in players who fit the vision too. Leon Rose and World Wide Wes deserve a ton of praise
Totally. I love that they did it without bringing in a "star". Randle and Brunson were definitely not highly sought after free agents, but they've really developed into great players as knicks. They're such a likable team. Hoping they find a way to trade for Mikal Bridges in the offseason.
The Bulls are definitely in basketball hell, we had 18+ months of below .500 basketball, without making a single move to help us succeed or rebuild, it also took forever for the GM to realize that he maybe shouldnt wait on Lonzo Ball, who couldnt walk without pain a year ago, to come back and be the same player to help lead the team back to the first seed (where we had 2 wins against teams above .500) It's not Hornets level of hell, but holyyyy the level of idiocy is definitely Hornets level
Not 4 years but 3 years. They literally won the draft lottery in 2021 in a year that had a consensus number 1 pick in Cade. Who’s career they’re wasting Pisstons organization did this to themselves
@@bilalak9090he was like the a towel fresh out of the dryer, like a cool breeze on warm summer evening, like everything that feels good all at once…pandem A.M hoops was him
I really agree with you that teams being in NBA hell is not because they cant draft well but because they have bad management and bad coaching. Even if they do take a great talent if they give that talent trash coaching and make terrible trade decisions its still going to be hard to make it out of NBA hell. But for someone reason these new players get blamed for their teams continuous failures instead of the bad owners, gms and coaches
I know. that's why I don't like the draft. I think players should be able to take a smaller short term contract with another team if he doesn't like the team that drafts him. Like a one year minimum.
As a Bulls fan, the 1st year with DeMar/Zach/Lonzo/Caruso/Vuc was great. First seed in the East at the All Star break even tho our record against top teams wasn't good. But really a combination of injury prone players getting injured (Zach/Lonzo) and Vuc regressing really hurt us. And until Coby White this year (who was robbed of MIP imo, Maxey was already good last year), our lottery picks ultimately didn't step up into that "good, consistent starter" role and we just suffered.
U spoke about how high draft busts are usually busts because of the team they were drafted by was bad at running the organisation. But what would u say to a player like James Weissman who was drafted really high and onto an already established and championship winning team
The Pistons have had the least wins of any NBA team in the last decade. The Red Wings have had the least wins of any NHL teams in the last decade. The Tigers have had the 2nd least wins of any MLB team in the last decade. The Lions have had the 10th least wins of any NFL team in the last decade. Last year's Lions season is the only notably positive year any major Detroit sports team has had in a decade. The Pistons are definitely the most hopeless though.
@@whatslapsIt’s crazy just 4 years ago all 4 teams sucked, all 4 were still missing the playoffs 2 years ago but we knew some were in their way up. Tigers seem playing decent and Lions are contenders now atleast
Dude, I love ur content. I wanted to introduce a friend to the NBA world, but I'm very bad at explaining stuff, ur videos have been a great help to show what the NBA is to said friend. Greetings from Costa Rica ❤
Great video! How would you explain the draft success of the OKC Thunder under Sam Presti? Would it be explained more by the quality of the players themselves (like they really draft/scout well) or would it. be explained by the pieces around those players that help them develop? Or a combo of the two? Curious to hear what you think
One thing I’m wondering though is how this applies to college sports? Bc that’s still a business but you also have to deal with recruiting and NCAA guidelines which is unique in sports
Love the content! For a video idea, I think talking about who NBA players think are the best players would be interesting. Like, the NBA player perspective on what things make a successful NBA player, and touching in on how ultimately their opinions aren’t infallible.
What are the chances the bulls (can) do something to help take another step forward this offseason? What the heck is the deal with teams that are perpetually in a rebuilding phase? They all trying to “trust the process”? Goodness gracious Detroit and Charlotte are looking ugly with no real end in sight. A phrase that I’ve heard is “if you’re going through hell, keep going”. Some of these teams seem like they’re just meandering around, not good. Thanks again man 👍🫵👍
Apparently Lonzo is supposed to play next season. legend has it. I don't know what they're going to do with Derozan. I hope they can get something for Lavine and put together a competitive team. Chicago deserves a decent team. I like that "keep going" quote. I'm going to use that. Pray for the Pistons, stay blessed!
Video idea: desperate moves from franchises (EXAMPLES: harden trade to clippers, knicks trade for carmelo, suns trade for kd/fire coach after finals fun)
As someone who's only recently started following the NBA, your videos are so great and I love your whole approach! Would there be something to be done with a video about common insults on types of players, like for example, people will call SGA a free throw merchant...is he really any worse about drawing fouls than others? Or players who get called "unathletic" which is confusing to me, they are professional athletes!
thanks! This would be a great video. I'd need to figure out the title and thumbnail, but it's definitely something I'd like to learn too. I think the embiid/harden free throw foul baiting that everyone calls "ugly basketball", could use a closer look
To me Detroit is such a shame, I am personally a piston fan and I swear to GOD we have a good team. Even our "bad luck" in lottery has ended up with Duren , Ivey , and Ausur, how truly bad can our luck be. With that being said ,I have no fucking clue what they're doing.
definitely, just looking at them individually we have a pretty serviceable ,very young ,tough ass team. I'm pretty sure we had waaaay too many second half meltdown games, and they just hung on to Killian for sooooooooooooo long , it wasn't fair to him or the rest of the team I'm still pulling for us though , if this squad can manage to evolve, even in the slightest , Detroit would have some badass basketball too look forward too, cuz I'm for really , generally not all that high on many younger players nowadays ,but if Detroit squanders what we actually have access to currently , that would be a fucking crime.
what you said about finding a diamond in the rougth kind of relates to what you said in an other video, where you said there are no teams that draft well but there are teams that devellop their players well (like the heat or the spurs)
I would love to know your take on NBA media, or media in general and its affect of on the game... Writing this after Steven A. and a bunch of vista ESPN polls chose Dallas over Boston for game 1 and then Boston went on to roll the Mavs in that game. But also after Kyrie went after the wolves when Ant "called him out." (and not to mention the Gobert slander after their season ended the way it did)
this is good. I feel like during the finals there's 3 hours of gameplay and 4000 hours of content generated from it. In the season too, but too a less degree.
Do you think the suns will descend into purgatory in the next couples of years? And what do you think it the worst case of purgatory a team has been in the past couple decades?
@@whatslaps true, but it was more of a fluke (coming from a Hawks / Trae fan) and it shows with how the team has been since. Teams like Detroit and Chicago at least have championships and legends we have a front office that's allegedly shipping the best player we have ever had this off-season to recoup from a nepotism trade that backfired
the lakers have a luxury atm with Lebron. But where are they in 'the running a sports franchise' . They are firmly a superstar first organization. Where they roll out the carpet for the stars that are here.
i would say that your definition of nba hell is true, but teams that believe they are in nba purgatory have no other choice. Like the GMs of the nets and the clippers don't own any of their own picks, so they can't really do anything. They just gotta wait out being bad. Just the life cycle.
the nets/lakers are a perfect definition. they've traded so many picks for a mid team. now they must suffer for their sins before they get their tradable future picks. Knicks in 6
Bad GMs draft players that fit to the position they need the most. Smart GMs draft potential stars and superstars and re-build around them or trade them for more assets. There is no reason to draft a rookie role player that you need when you can draft a star and trade him for more than one role players and starters that you need. Just suck a little bit more, be patient.
NO ACTUALLY THE SIXERS ARE IN BASKETBALL HELL 😂 THERE THE ONLY TEAM IN HELL THEY HAVE THE BEST PLAYER BUT WE ALL KNOW THEY WONT WIN 🥇 NO OTHER TEAM MATTERS
Casuals think that the Pistons need to find new players, but real fans know that the Pistons need to find a new owner, GM, and coach.
U think it's casey up there mucking it up?

There’s a reason my Kings were called basketball hell by Rudy Gay.
You’re awesome, dude.
I saw that podcast too haha
The Bulls are definitely in basketball hell, we had 18+ months of below .500 basketball, without making a single move to help us succeed or rebuild, it also took forever for the GM to realize that he maybe shouldnt wait on Lonzo Ball, who couldnt walk without pain a year ago, to come back and be the same player to help lead the team back to the first seed (where we had 2 wins against teams above .500)
It's not Hornets level of hell, but holyyyy the level of idiocy is definitely Hornets level
I'd say middle team purgatory

Man detroit getting the 5th pick for 4 straight years gotta suck. Feel bad for them for real
They did take cade first like 3 years ago.
Not 4 years but 3 years. They literally won the draft lottery in 2021 in a year that had a consensus number 1 pick in Cade. Who’s career they’re wasting
Pisstons organization did this to themselves
Even if they would have got number 1 4 years straight they would have messed it up

No wonder Detroit always feels so depressed. Imagine having the Lions(still don’t believe it), the Tigers, and the goddamn Pistons.
I know I was rooting for the Lions this year in the playoffs
