    Just wanted to clarify that I wasn't calling the Knicks draft pick a bust, I was just saying I think Dennis is the one that'll end up becoming a star

      Dom2k why wouldnt Ntilikina? Has there ever been a player that can defend at an elite level and shoot at an elite level too while being 18 and was simply a role player? I mean combine that with his physical gifts and come on thats just a weird comparison to write off a high potential rookie this quickly

    Frank Ntilikina isn't a terrible player. As a Knicks fan I would have loved if the Knicks drafted Smith but the European players suprise sometimes. Darko was supposed to be a super star being the best player on a championship team, but was a bust. Kristaps (Knicks pick) was supposed to be a 3-5 year project but is now a top 7 power forward.

    @Jarekthegamingdragon 7 років тому +10

    You answered your own questions twice. Portland did not need durant at that time. Portland needed a big. Portland had good guards, a super star with roy, and a power forward with aldridge. What they needed was a big, if that big didn't end up being injury riddled, that's a championship team. That same team with durant is not a championship team.
    The same thing can be said with MJ. Portland had drexler and needed a big. That same team with MJ does not win rings. The what ifs of portland in that time is losing the coin toss to get hakeem, who portland wanted, and getting screwed over by the soviets by sabonis being kept from them.
    Portland is not stupid, they're unlucky. That is a big difference.

    You said you didn’t watch college basketball in 2011, so I’m assuming you didn’t watch in 2007. Greg Oden absolutely dominated Al Horford, Joakim Noah, and Marreese Speights in the championship game. Noah could do absolutely nothing offensively against him and at the same time couldn’t stop him from scoring and staying in foul trouble the whole game. Odens ppg wasn’t as high as Durant’s because he usually didn’t play 4th quarters because they were blowing teams out while the longhorns hardly blew people out. Oden shared buckets with 4 NBA players on his team, while Durant had 3 Damion James wasn’t really a scorer. And Durant had horrible defense in college. I know you don’t have to play defense in the NBA today, but in 2007 defense was important. So 10 years later, I still say oden was an obvious pick.

    Yo Dom, I've always loved your videos man. But I've always wondered a what if scenario if all these draft busts weren't injured. Is there a possibility that we could've seen a Portland team with:
    PG - Dame Lillard
    SG - (healthy) Brandon Roy
    SF - Nick Batum
    PF - Lamarcus Aldridge
    C - (healthy) Greg Oden
    Bench:
    PG - CJ Mccollum
    SG - Rudy Fernandes
    SF - Travis Outlaw
    PF - Channing Frye
    C - Robin Lopez

    One thing people forget about the Harden-Grizzlies thing. If he was drafted by the Grizzlies he would've remained a great defender (see him guarding Kobe early in his career) instead of giving up on defense by watching his teammates.

    I know this is an old video but it's nice to see someone who actually knows basketball. Take klay in this vid. You recognize that him being on the warriors makes him an even better shooter. His teammates free him up for a whole lot of those open 3s. How he doesn't have the pressure on him at all to carry his team, he doesn't have to be great every single night. There are a lot of bball fans out there who don't see, think about, or even realize this stuff. It's refreshing to see a fan who knows the game, cheers.

    We can discuss Greg Oden to death, but at the time he looked like an amazing prospect. Durant couldn't bench press, and Oden was a big with a freakishly athletic body. Plus he looked the type of 5 that was a dying breed (and is indeed a dead breed today) - the likes that teams would draft in the hopes they developed into a Shaq, but even if he developed into a Dight Howard it wouldn't have been so bad.
    It wasn't a bad choice, I wouldn't fire my GM over that choice same as I wouldn't fire him for picking Griffin over Curry. I just think the Blazers are cursed - people joke about Philly but between Oden and Roy, the Blazers have had a huge history of drafting busts, except for when they landed Lillard and McCollum (and even then, think about the fact that they passed on Antetokounmpo).

    One thing that makes the Oden decision somewhat less terrible for Portland was that Oden started the season slowly because he had a hand/wrist injury, and then once the tournament came around, he was extremely dominant. He was the best player in the title game, and severely outplayed the Noah/Horford Florida frontcourt who were both lottery bound. To an extent, his college numbers were a bit misleading, and most NBA teams try to pick the guy who will have the highest ceiling. Oden's looked to be sky high, but the Blazers misread the tea leaves.

    I don't think you remember how hyped Greg Oden was at the time, he took his team to a national title game as a freshman in college. He was the obvious #1 pick that year. Oden was one of the greatest prospects ever for a big man and many were calling him the next Bill Russell. Majority of teams would have taken Oden instead of Durant in that draft.

    The thing that stunted Oden emotionally was that he knew him and Mike Conley Jr weren't going to be drafted to the same team.
