- Since Carmelo Anthony, we haven't seen a star shine brighter in New York than Jalen Brunson... But how come he was overlooked by so many teams, before being selected in the 2nd round of the 2018 NBA Draft?

the amount of players that had stints with the suns in this draft class was crazy💀
True 😂
Lmao yeah, good observation. 😅😂
Funny right as I read this comment I am watching the summary on Aaron Holiday and guess what he was also moved to the suns at some point in his career. 😂
Its kinda funny that, for all the flack his contract got, brunsons contract is probably one of the biggest steals in the NBA now
Yeah I really don't understand how people say that role players have the most overpaid contracts when you got Jaylen Brown getting $50 million a year next year, basically setting the peak of the Celtics until he gets a renewal in 2029. People are retarded when it comes down to crunching the numbers of a contract and it shows on almost every trade, free agent signing, renewals, and such. Owners don't care as long as that player is generating CASH, and management may be distorted to do these types of deals NOT because they want a championship, but because they don't want to be fired for not doing the popular thing.
Basically, the average NBA fan is stupid.
I genuinely thought it was a bad deal. Mostly because if the Knicks are giving someone money, its most likely going to fail lol. To be honest I never really watched him or looked into him apart from the playoffs with the Mavs. Hes had insane efficiency since he was drafted though and his stats improved without dropping that efficiency which is hard for a lot of guys. I find shooting efficiency a great indicator of whether a guys getting better and going to be good. Looking back at it, genuienly shocked the Mavs didnt match. Theyre definitely regretting that now, hed be so much better than part time Irving and clearly Lukas getting fed up at the lack of help. Kinda reminds me of Lebron on the Cavs in the 2000s. Just didnt notice him, but credit where credits due. Happy to be proven wrong though, hes been really really good. Thats a few good moves for the Knicks now lol. Pretty out of charecter for them, but nice theyre actually making some smart moves vs. just hoping the next big Free Agent wants to come there simply because theyre New York lol.
@@Amm17ar actually, the mavs kind of lowballed Brunson when they did try. Brunson doesn't like Cuban's way of doing things.
@@Amm17arI get it, it’s gonna be hard for us as a fanbase to recover from the trauma of the past 25 years. So many bad decisions and terrible seasons, that now when something starts to look good like JB, we just assume it’s gonna go wrong.
I think the Mavs knew how good he was but knew they would get the best usage out of him with Luka having the ball so much and he was a minus defender and didn't want to pay that much to a point guard who would be a secondary ball handler with not great defense. Just my opinion!@@erichong4786
2018 might go down as one of the greatest drafts of all time. MVP caliber players in SGA and Luka, multiple other all stars in Brunson, Trae Young, and JJJ. And a ton of quality starters in WCJ, MPJ, Ayton, both Bridges, Simons, Williams III, Robinson, and Vanderbilt
Agree
Even the drafts that can match the pure star power can’t come close to the depth this class has.
@@christopherhamill525Some old heads probably wouldn't want to admit it cause 1984,1996,and 2003 classes. BUT more times go by 2018 is becoming one of the best OVERALL AND DEEPEST CLASSES..
Feel sad for Ayton I hope he can bounce back
Trae is a mvp caliber player as well
What an insane draft this was
i’ve been a knicks fan since 2011 when i was 9 years old. when we were in talks for signing brunson i hated it, then we signed him and i hated it because i thought he was a small 6’2 guard w defensive weakness and not a playmaker. fast forward two years and im waiting to buy my first brunson all star jersey
You had great analysis of his weakness but many people underestimate his strength, his willpower. He has that winning dog in him you can't teach.
such a casual
Wow lol, the 2018 draft was jam packed with talent!! 😮😮
Thanks for this nice overview/reminder! 😊
Happy New Year! 🎉🥳🔥🔥
Man 2018 is a great draft
Ellie Okobo is not a bench warmer in the Euroleague, he is one of the best players on the Monaco squad which has a lot of talent
there is alot of misinformation in this video
@@ejayboogiewhat else
Are you Okobo?
So
this gotta be a Okobo burner
JB is him, he is the leader of that squad and i believe in him being an all star this season
2 top 5 players in the same draft is insane
Shai and Luka from the same year😱
Brunson ranks either 3/4 in 2018. #1 Luka #2 Shia and then Trae or Brunson
I’d give it to trae, recency bias points towards brunson but it’s too early to decide imo
@@kennethxu1789I'm going trae at 3 Brunson at 4.
The 2018 is becoming one of the greatest draft class ever
Sga, Luka, trae, mikal, ayton, brunson, mpj, wcj, miles bridges, donte, Mitchell Robinson, huerter, time lord, Vanderbilt and simons is hard to beat
Relax. It’s barely top 5 rn
The way Donte Divincenzo was shooting the ball, he should be the one taking the shots the final minutes of the game
Y’all forgot about J Lin just like tho whole NBA and Carmelo did that man dirty
😂😂😂
Lin was okay player. The players that did Lin dirty were LeBron, wade and the Miami heat team that exposed him. Mello had nothing to do with that
This is really a solid draft !!
eh, there are some really high highs, but some really low lows lol
What a deep Draft, just a small correction Elie Okobo isn't a bench warmer he a 6th man putting up just ober 12PPG over his Euroleague Career, and Musa might have dropped out of the League but he is now one of the best players in Europe with almost 14PPG this season in Real Madrid (where Doncic played) and over 42% from three and 60% from 2
He’s a top 5 player in this draft
Good analysis but SGA was drafted by the Hornets and traded to the Clippers for Miles Bridges as part of a draft day trade
Kobe trade part 2
Calling Okobo a benchwarmer in EuroLeague is craaazy
Guy is clueless xD
The suns could’ve had booker and doncic 😱😱🤯🤯. How crazy of a back court that would’ve been! Great vid bro. Thanks for giving my guy Brunson some love! He’s definitely been our best player since melo but gotta give credit to randle as well he helped put us on the map!
Father and son duo
He's better than C. Anthony. He makes everyone else better. Anthony's need for the ball without play-making ability made them worse.
Suns could have Booker, Luka, bridges, and Brunson lol
An the mavs coulda had Luka and Brunson. Oh wait
I love watching your videos
This video make ne realizy how solid was this draft class…
We will be talking about this class in the next decades
Only 5/30 players of the 2018 draft are out of the league as of present. We can say that this is one of the best draft class in years. We even have Bronson in the second round so just Wow!
If they were being redrafted today...
1) Luca 2) SGA 3) Brunson 4) Bridges 5) Ice Trey
For sure taking Trae before Mikal
@@ryanamburgy2791 100% Because there are three phases to the game. People like you only look at scoring. People who understand winning basketball look at scoring, defense, and rebounding.
@@scarrington Rebounding is the most useless stat in basketball. Trae's scoring, 3 point ability, and passing clear Mikals defense easily.
this draft class is stack! one of the best if not the best draft class
Saw Brunson play in high school and college where he was awesome. I was surprised he was drafted so low then sat on the bench in Dallas for years before getting an opportunity to play.
Come on, even as a Knick fan, no one knew he was gonna be THIS good...our eyes only perked up when he had that run in the Mavs playoffs with Luka out. Even after that, they thought his contract was over-paid, over-looked in current All Star selection despite being the better point guard in the East.
My man JB!
Very good video! However, Okobo is everything but a bench warmer with Monaco. He's killing out there!
If Luca can stay health for 5 years there is a good chance he will make it to the Hall of Fame. I been watching since the mid 90’s. The best players I’ve ever seen play are Jordan, LeBron, Kobe, and Luca.
But take with a grain of salt, I have not played at a D-1 or higher level so according to ya’ll I’m a casual.
this is a pretty solid draft in hindsight
Bro are you seriously deleting comments that call you out for your poor research 😂
What’s the name of the background music from when Grayson Allen (15:11) got drafted? till about when Anfernee Simons got drafted?
hmm, 2018 is quite strong draft year
Brunson looks like a young Sanford , from Sanford and son
No he doesn't. His nme is redd foxx .put respect on his name .
I can't believe the knicks drafted kevin knox over Mikal Bridges... knicks would of have the Villinova 4 by now
SGA gotta be the shortest 6’6 player I’ve seen cuz bro looks like he’s 6’4
Players exaggerate their heights all the time
I can’t beleive the Knicks drafted Kevin Knox in this draft.
Don't remind me...
Unfortunate
Made up for it by getting Brunson a few years later
If they had drafted Bridges, who went in the next pick, then in some imaginary world they would now have 4 NCAA champ players from Villanova and be a dynasty.
You mean 5. They already have 4.@@loubest37
Am hoops already did this video lol still a good vid though 😂
The fact the Mavs hit on Doncic and Brunson is insane.
3rd in a redraft… top 10 in the league scoring… putting up almost Step Curry numbers??? Wow! Go JB! Go Knicks!!! Great post…
One of the most talented batch draft.shai,luka,trae,wcj,2 bridges,jackson,simmons,and the steal of the draft jalen brunson.
This draft is insanely good
In a redraft, he'd definitely be top 7, arguably top 5. 👍👏
arguably top 3
Luka and Brunson trained with each other everyday in thier fiest years. From time to time u can see the moves or how they both break yp the game
Makes sense why he was drafted so low this draft class is stacked id say easily top 5 already maybe the best by the time all their careers end
Knicks picked Knox over Shai and Mikal LOLOLOL!!!! OUCH!
Okobo isnt a bench warmer in the Euroleague. At all. How did you research your video????
Wat a stacked draft jeez
When showing Doncic's stats, the huge number of turnovers and the number of times he's choked in important games was left out.
Luka casually, dropping 73 last night on Trae young and the hawks 😂
Couple years back and the knicks weren't giving him the light of day now he's definitely their best player
Lmao I just realised Lula told the commissioner he was getting traded 😂
Though Carmelo might have been more skilled, Brunson has already done more in 1 1/2 seasons than Melo ever did for the Knicks. Brunson took us past the first round and into a competitive matchup against the eastern champion Heat. Meló just had that one good season and it looks like with Brunson we are about to have two.
divinconco wasnt traded he was free agent proved him self then canceled last year with player option got bag hes on 33 million for 3 years warriors had him on 3.4 million
1 more win and he will lead his team to the Conference Final!
At least lots of them are still in nba
Since Melo? Nah since Linsanity
To me Brunson ranks now 5th in that draft class now in hindsight
Okobo is not a bench warmer in Euroleague wtf 😂
Do you watch Monaco ??
bruh you did Mo Bamba dirty with that bar 😭
Yeah he would have been a decent big man if the magic hadn't resigned Vucevic
Wow didn’t even realize they picked Donte Divencio that high
Who are these "some people" who don't see him as a 1st option on a a championship team.
The overall pick of MPJ is the number of assist he has made in his career 😂
Okobo isn't a bench warmer for Monaco lol, brunson 100% better and miles better but hes still the modern day raymond felton
Good draft
Luka should’ve went 1 that year!!! I think Trae averaged the most points and assist per game in the ncaa that year… picks 1-9 were essentially locks at the time. Couldn’t see him going above that. SGA avg what 14 at Kentucky that year… The clippers should’ve picked Brunson with the 13th pick!
No disrespect to Trae Young, but I just know Atlanta is kicking themselves in the ass for trading Luka for him...some teams really benefit from those draft day trades
As a hawks fan man this draft class haunts me correct me if I’m wrong but since I’ve been alive since 2002 we haven’t had a top 5 draft pick at least not one as good as luka sigh
U make trey seem worth the luka trade n this video man, I wish tht fucker could play some god dam defense 😂
What happened to Dallas just letting him walk is the big question.
7:37 Devin Buckah 🙉
Not everyone was against Brunson signing. I’ve been a Knicks fan since they drafted Patrick Ewing. I knew all we really needed was a point guard. We haven’t had a good one for a long time,and Brunson was coming from the Dallas Mavericks. He was young and a hard worker. I’m so happy for his family.
So proud of him. We the New York fans, don’t care about the sport media. They are a bunch of imbeciles. They are very myopics. Who cares what they think of JB! We the fans adore him.
Brunson has so much more all around game than Carmelo…Melo was me me me. Never really cared for Carmelos selfish ISO game
Being a Suns fan is painful 😭💀
Out of all the players would could have drafted
Smith was injured, but he had an allergic reaction, to I believe, flax seed, lost like 30lbs and nearly died. Not sure if that was why he never developed, but thats a key part of his early career left out.
Bro was too nice to Marvin Bagley
That was an 18 year old MVP. Luka being the 3rd pick is absurd.
Its funny how if u drafted number 1 overall ur either the best player in the league or ur just a bust
The pressure on a number 1 pick is often so high you either thrive right away or die. Even though it’s the team’s fault for not recognizing the intangibles
@@antwanthorogood4921 ye lol
Man The Hawks is sick 🤢 for that Trae Young trade.
I don't understand why the interviewer is so pushy. Caleb Williams is a smaller version of Justin. Why would you get a smaller QB who hasn't been tested, and behind an offensive line that is a c+ at best?
The nba is seriously better when celtics lakers bulls and knicks are all good
Well the bulls are awful and the Knicks are ok
Brunson is far better than Melo. Brunson makes his teammates better and all Melo did was take 30 shots to score 25 and took his teammates out of the game.
What's with the angry face?? That's not brunson
Wtf Okobo a bench Warmer in Euroleague?????
Musa is one of the best scorer in euroleague this season make better research plz
Well one of them is Luka! And probably one of the 3 goats when it’s all said and done.
1st overall
hornets drafted shai
SGA original pick by hornets rigth
Mavs drafted big in 2018
Sga drafted by the hornets then traded
Ellie okobo bench warmer 😂,Musa is very good player
Ni hao Kevin Knox
How about Julius Randle?🤣 Isn't he the star after Melo and before Brunson?🤣
hes the star now, hes still better than brunson
@@JS96919 They are perfectly complementary players and pieces to an outstanding team.
Only 2 players in that draft are better than Brunson (Luka and SGA)
Clippers did so bad when things could of been so great. Kept sga and could of got mpj oooof, even worse the nuggets have been owning LAC.
Would have had to convince Kawhi to wait on SGA to develop because he wanted PG. injuries ruined a lot
i was the 500th like
I like Brunson he’s on my Knicks but don’t jinx him. Hope he doesn’t have the isaiah Thomas syndrome.
You got shit shares!
Hi
Top what guard top100 😂😂😂
