This happens so often though… the ‘stacked’ drafts end up full of busts because of the expectation, and the weak drafts end up full of loads of solid players
I’m glad you included context of the time in the vid. I always thought Shai should’ve gone a lil higher but if you were there you knew it’d be CRAZY for a team like Sac to take him over Bagley and such
Exactly. This is why I hate when people do “redrafts” and it’s just them ranking the players. They don’t consider the landscape of the team at the time and what positions are already filled. Obviously, there are cases where the teams are so bad they really just need to take the best option, but a lot of times that’s not the case as you get beyond the first 3-5 picks (and sometimes earlier).
2018 looking stacked. You got it all, stars, starters, rotation, role and bench. ayton, doncic, jaren, trae, wendell, sexton, mikal, shai, miles, mpj, kevin huerter, anfernee, moritz, robert williams, jalen brunson, gary trent, vanderblit, melton, milton etc
I’m from Canada so whenever I watch the draft and u see a Canadian get drafted I try to become a fan and plus with the 2017-18 draft being a very big one I’m so surprised he fell
5 seasons in and 2018 is looking very similar to 2011 in terms of depth, both in terms of star power and support pieces. Also, something I just thought of: Shai went 11th in his draft... while Klay Thompson went 11th in his draft. Wild frickin' times.
As a Cavs fan I remember the Cavs wanting to draft him but Shai didn’t want to play in Cleveland. Still hurts lol I either wanted Trae Young or Shai at that time.
Dom, Another amazing video. A lot of insight on players and teams. Like I said, these videos are getting better and better. We are looking forward to the next.
Kevin Knox really had so much potential going into this draft. I definitely thought he would at least be a really competent two way wing but he hasn’t been able to put the pieces together
@@anthonymaslow798 It was easy to see star potential in Shai, he's been a bucket since his Clippers days guessing he was gonna blossom was not difficult.
I'm happy for the thunder fans they had KD Westbrook and Harden then lost em all and now got Shai , Chet and some nice young pieces to go along. The future looking good for OKC! And it didn't take long.
I was at home watching the game man… you know… i said was he was gon, before the game even started when i seen uh… i said he was probably gonna score 70 tonight. I don’t know what made me say that, my friends was with me and they said “oh, okay.” So like when he got to 70, I was oh he might as well go for 80 now so
Yeah really incredible, Both Luka and Trae young, JJJ, Mikal ( who’s looking like a future allstar), Shai (future Superstar), Sexton and plenty of solid to really good role players like Kevin Huerter, Ayton, Divincenzo, RobWill. This will probably go down as the best draft class of the 2010s.
I’ve been watching shai since he was in Kentucky and when I first saw him I knew he’d be a star. If clippers didn’t trade for pg he probably wouldn’t be able to reach his potential
He's not even the biggest steal in the draft. Robert Williams at 27 is crazy. In a redraft I would pick him like 5-7 players over him, but not more. The celtics getting a perenial DPOY candidate while making it to ecf is a cracy draft selection.
Bro I saw Shai play last night he was good. dort was making me mad, couldn't hold on to the ball, kept missing Free throws and blowing layups point blank.
@@coop.mp4 yeah no .. he’s having the better season but i wouldn’t say the better player how quick y’all forget lol .. Trae is a career 25&10 guy , all nba , 2 time all star starter , multiple LEAGUE records & carried his team to a conference finals berth .. we don’t even know who Shai will be in the playoffs (I think he’ll be that guy still ) but let’s wait & see , he’s not better off one season lol
Luka future top ten player, shai and Trae who will likely make at least 7 all stars in their career AND future dpoy Jaren Jackson jr., best class in recent memory (2013-present)
So the knicks who were in desperate need of a point guard while being one of the only teams who had Shai for a workout still picked a bust of a player over him
8:38 damn, I felt that pain from Alex Caruso. Fucking dirty ass irresponsable Grayson Allen! I don't know what the aftermath was, but he should have been ejected. And dare I say suspended for such a reckless play.
I'm still baffled about jerome robinson taken before MPJ, which was and still insane, the clippers could've just took him and maybe traded him or something
Such a beautiful game. To those who say the analytics/3 trend has ruined the game...have to agree with you. So much better to watch someone with this variety instead of the modern game. As for a redraft...it's clearly Luka, SGA then Trae. After that there's a big drop off.
As a UK fan, I still don’t understand why Kevin Knox was chosen before Shai, we all knew Shai was better but the “potential” factor for Knox was higher
Philly doesn’t deserve to win with how many chances they’ve had for an insane roster. They could of had Shai, Tatum, Butler, and Embiid. This doesn’t even include Simmons/ Harden
As a Knicks fan, I can’t believe they chose Knox over Shai, Mikal and Miles Bridges, and MPJ. Then last season we traded Knox and a 1st for Cam Reddish 💀
Bro who you telling what makes it worse you could be blindfolded and randomly pick a player after knox and you would have drafted a better player I hate it
Almost nobody predicted shai to become a 30 ppg scorer even the people who really liked shai thought he’d be more of a playmaker then scorer kinda like what Halliburton is developing into lol
@@4ktkaram395 not sure what’s funny lol. He scores 5 more ppg, on much better efficiency, while having stats we haven’t seen since Jordan being put up. Trae is not even close to Shai. Shai is a top 10 player, Trae is hovering around the 20-25 range. Luka is still better, but Shai is getting close because of his defense.

DO NOT GAMBLE
You sound pitched up in this vid lmao
Nah gang
I have precisely one memory of Kevin Knox
Being bodied by Zion in Summer League
I think I have more memories of him playing Fortnite than actually playing basketball
@@mattmmixes fr
I was so sure we were going to get Mikal Bridges that draft my anger that night . . .
I remember he was looked at as the next scoring machine
I remember the Fortnite suit
2018 is low-key becoming a very deep draft class in retrospect
This happens so often though… the ‘stacked’ drafts end up full of busts because of the expectation, and the weak drafts end up full of loads of solid players
@@jtfc7286the 2013 draft is so underrated for that reason
I’m glad you included context of the time in the vid. I always thought Shai should’ve gone a lil higher but if you were there you knew it’d be CRAZY for a team like Sac to take him over Bagley and such

How a Fortnite streamer and a song got drafted before a 30 ppg scorer
That’s how not why
Hold up... Let him cook
Damn im not even gonna watch the video now. Thank you.

You've always been the best at making these types of videos. Thanks for always making quality stuff Dom
I still play that Mo Bamba song from time to time. I simply love that song. It never gets old.
Dom, Another amazing video. A lot of insight on players and teams. Like I said, these videos are getting better and better. We are looking forward to the next.
It feel like dom2k make most video this year since 2020

Kevin Knox really had so much potential going into this draft. I definitely thought he would at least be a really competent two way wing but he hasn’t been able to put the pieces together
Hell yeah Shai quickly becoming my favorite in the league, keep these style videos coming
I'm usually wrong about players becoming stars but id like to say, I was 150% right about Shai, I been saying he's got next for years.
🙄 no one thought he was gonna be top five in the league, but you did?
@@anthonymaslow798 It was easy to see star potential in Shai, he's been a bucket since his Clippers days guessing he was gonna blossom was not difficult.

Remember seeing him in the pg trade and knew he was gonna be big cause he hit some big shots in the playoffs
he was a senior when my friend was a freshman at the same highschool so i’ve always been a fan of him so watching him become who he his has been sick
Macnab?
What’s insane is that he barely shoots 3s and still averages over 30 on great efficiency
Kevin Knox the goat for that Fortnite suit
Solid video!! Thanks again!!
Love to see these coming back
Love this video, Shai is from my hometown and his highschool has a whole mural in their gym it's pretty cool
The draft crazy😮
I was at home watching the game man… you know… i said was he was gon, before the game even started when i seen uh… i said he was probably gonna score 70 tonight. I don’t know what made me say that, my friends was with me and they said “oh, okay.” So like when he got to 70, I was oh he might as well go for 80 now so
SGA over Trae EVERY SINGLE TIME. Trae has got personal offensive numbers over actually playing winning basketball written all over him.
Let's put the brakes on that until SGA does something in the playoffs. Trae went to the ECF and made the Knicks his bitch.
@@CrazyxEnigma as of now Shai is definitely the better player
I love this video concept bro
That 2018 class is going to do down as one of the greatest when their careers wrap up

Been watching since highschool I'm 22 now bro much love heat nation
i hope they add more national televised games for OKC he's so fun to watch
The 2018 NBA draft will be a top 5 draft
What happened to the media merchants pod bro?
I’ve been watching shai since he was in Kentucky and when I first saw him I knew he’d be a star. If clippers didn’t trade for pg he probably wouldn’t be able to reach his potential
Make "Why were a 1000 players drafted before Austin Reaves" next.
Reaves went undrafted on purpose so he'd end up a Laker. He'd have been a 2nd round pick easily if not for that.
@@CrazyxEnigma I know, I just want a video on him
@@phothewin6019 Oh, well Reaves deserves one. Very glad we got him, he's already better than Caruso was and just might have all star potential.
@@CrazyxEnigma Bro got his own shoe already 😭 (even though it's a Chinese brand lol). Dude works hard and deserves the success that comes to him

pretty stacked draft class

Dom PICK A VOICE you go from deep to high pitch 😂😂😂
Thunder Up ⚡️
Draft class is generational … headlining with Luka , Trae as the best 2 players , then Shai who wasn’t even top 10 ? Wow
Shai is clear of Trae lol

So the knicks who were in desperate need of a point guard while being one of the only teams who had Shai for a workout still picked a bust of a player over him
Dom, what happened to Media Merchants?
I remember them saying about shai he was solid at everything but not elite at anything
Thunder fan propaganda we love it
Doms a celtic fan
Nice pfp
“Why Ben Simmons was drafted before Brandon Ingram” will be such a good video when the time comes.
imagine if Kevin Knox had been the goat and we’d all have to live that and the fortnite suit
So it's seems like he should've been at worse 6th, not gonna lie. I wasn't high on shai when he was drafted. I'm glad he's a dog, he's been killing it
He honestly should’ve gone to Atlanta instead of Trae
🐐🐐🐐
8:38 damn, I felt that pain from Alex Caruso. Fucking dirty ass irresponsable Grayson Allen! I don't know what the aftermath was, but he should have been ejected. And dare I say suspended for such a reckless play.
Dirtiest player since Dellavadova. Nobody likes Allen.
The clippers should have definitely kept him

It’s still too soon for these recent draft classes, should do one from the 2000s or 90s instead

Calling Trae Young a "legendary offensive engine" is a disgrace. Maybe one day but not today🤣🤣🤣
Not legendary, but def elite

As a UK fan, I still don’t understand why Kevin Knox was chosen before Shai, we all knew Shai was better but the “potential” factor for Knox was higher
Knicks are still the Knicks. The only guy they've drafted that turned out correct since Ewing retired has been Porzingis.
Marvin Bagley needs more talk for being an insane bust. He doesn't do anything. Duke players just never pan out.
This whole time I thought Shai was drafted by the clippers

You may do the George-Shai trade, but not with all those picks...
Shai would be the best player on everyteam that drafted someone else ahead of him besides Dallas... all of those teams regret passing on him.
You really had to do Knox like that 😭
