Is LaMelo Ball a good fit for the Hornets?
Perfect team for him 😎
Idk
Should've took Cassius Winston.
What if we paid the kids but required 2 years of development in college or G league? College basketball would have great athletes playing and getting paid so the rush to the NBA is easier to go with
Toronto would be better fit for lamelo
“ I love playing!”-zion
“Well I love you”-colin
I knew I’d see this in the comments. 😂
Too early to write off lamelo, but the college basketball take is prolly his best all year
Exactly. RJ Hampton was a top 5 prospect going into this draft and went overseas because he wanted to make his own path, which is fine, but it killed his draft stock and now outside of huge basketball nerds nobody knows who he is, what his game is like, or cares. He's going into the NBA with no brand. Outside of exceptions like LaMelo who has an older brother in the NBA and got publicity that way that's what happens if you go play overseas.
Lamelo will be a bust
Maybe they distance themselves because it is so corrupt.
@@harrygarris6921 You can say the same about college players. Skal Labassiere was a projected top 3 pick and disappointed at Kentucky and now he's a no name. He had no brand entering the NBA.
Man I cant believe people are trying to write off lamelo ball already. It is a shame too cuz that boy can really hoop
“Has no chance to be a fundamental game changer” boy this aged well 😂😂 cowherd wrong again not surprised
The opening take was spot on.
Startups is such a perfect analogy haha
I never really take anything he says seriously but it was straight out on the money lollll NFL been killing it
Especially when he talked about why the NBA ratings are down.
I was referring more towards the draft. If u love basketball, you're still gonna watch it.
But what does it have to do with going to the college or not going to college. Melo is going to sign a lottery contract. He's set for life...Who cares what colin has to say about it.
Maybe cause there wasn’t March madness this year
Ok name the last 5 NCAA b ball champions .... exactly. Colin has a great point.
HermannTheGreat he would’ve got exposed
this is what i came to the comment section looking for lol and there wasn't even a full reg season
@@shevanteday9579 no but have you ever heard of ja morant, steph curry and Kemba walker ?
@@shevanteday9579 all breakout tournament stars. And of course ncaa basketball isn’t going to have ncaa football ratings, regular season basketball isn’t that entertaining on any level
Colin only talks basketball because it’s popular. He is a casual fan with a huge platform
Very true
It really ain't that popular man... Bunch of drama queens who team up to win ring. Only 4 relevant teams a year. NBA is awful
idk man, I'm a die hard nba fan but i gotta admit... the NFL has been killing it lately.
Disagree. Fox Sports doesn't even have NBA. Colin truly likes basketball.
However, and he's never publicly admitted it, but since he's from Seattle he probably hates the NBA as a league (for good reason). That's why he's so pro-player.
@@GRYNGE7 if you're talking about popularity worldwide, apart from European football leagues, the NBA has the most followings around the world.
This Draft class had no personality, everyone sounded the same.
They're kids. Most have played in environments catered to them and haven't had to deal with real adversity. It doesn't mean they can't be good or great pros but it doesn't make for compelling individuals.
@@Ginga exactly. 90% of these guys have no personality
Well, they didn’t have a tournament cause of COVID
The soul less interviews didn’t help lol ik espn had layoffs but damn couldn’t get someone with a shred of humanity or emotion in their voice to do the interviews? Lol. Awful
Anthony Edwards had plenty of personality and the plenty of the " experts ' slammed him for his attitude , thankfully Minnesota drafted on talent and not what too many of the teams look for in generic fits . Let players mature at different times and it's up to the team coaching structure to make a player fit, regardless of their perceived attitude from a few meaningless meetings and interviews
“Magic had a physical presence, he was 6’9”
LeMelo Ball *is 6’8* 😂😂
PGs are a lot bigger nowadays though, you got Ben Simmons at 6'10
he is 6'7 and is a whopping 190 pounds
melo is 6'7 but is like 30 pounds lighter than MJ
Magic was also 220lbs. LaMelo is like 180; he's a twig
@@marleykirton he’s a point forward not a true guard
Colin ain’t lying.
This man said lamely doesn't like contact. Clearly hasn't watched him a lick
@@ObiVEVO he doesn''t! dude do YOU even watch him? He prefers floaters over contact. In fact, he avarages 2 ft per game in australia.
@@ObiVEVO what games? Literally no one watches him play in Australia lol, cmon man
@@ZiggyZou so Colin opinion doesn’t matter
@@MindfulAttraction2.0 so he didn’t take shots in the paint? He didn’t finish through contact and dunk on dudes?
Lol well if you judge lamelo on whether he's gonna be like kobe or MJ, he'll probably be a bust. But most top picks are not all time greats, they're just great players. Lamelo I think has the potential to be a multiple time all star, assuming he's committed.
That's the question. Is he committed to play winning basketball and not just to produce highlights for social media?
LaMelo has potential to be a taller Jason Kidd. However, he badly needs a jumper. Kidd's 3-point shot improved later in his career. In today's NBA you can get cut from a roster if you can't shoot a 3. There are some exceptions, Russell Westbrook, but those aren't the norm in today's NBA.
@@adrianbuck8772 By you saying that i can tell you never actually watched a game of his.Why do you think MJ out of all people drafted him if he didnt have that ? Btw he had a 32 point triple double ,game tying shot and win in overtime.
@@RealEstateMover And he shot overall 37.5% from the field and 25% from 3 for the season. Doesn't look like an offensive efficient season for me. He got drafted because he has the upside.
@@adrianbuck8772 His last 5 games he averaged 23 9Rb 8.5A 1.6S 48% 30%3. He only played 12 games . Once he became the starter nd got adjusted he was playing better.
Colin watched 0 tape of lamelo in NBL clearly
I absolutely agree with the opening take. The lack of connection or even recognition of any of these guys is hurting the NBA. Not to mention they take so much longer now to be noteworthy - maybe 3 years or more.
Its confirmed Colin is a CASUAL
Think we have all known this for years lol.
Tbf this draft was full of bad players. I imagine most get cut or go to the g-league
@@ousamahachoumi838 I didnt watch college that much and I knew most of the people in the second round
@@vitorguerreiro3902 luckily you were wrong af
Colin's voice switch to high pitched is hilarious.
Not only that, but his statement from 4:56 to 5:02 is factually wrong. Black Lives Matter has been a thing since 2013, and it has become increasingly more visible in the public consciousness ever since the Baltimore riots of 2015. It makes Colin look completely out of touch in terms of cultural awareness.....
@John Pike He’s talking about the relevancy of BLM in the NBA... They never had custom jerseys with BLM support and BLM decorations on the court until now.
@@ayelediallokimoni8116 It’s been a gradual buildup over time, though. Remember when players were wearing black tees with the phrase “I CAN’T BREATHE” across the chest instead of their regular warmups after Eric Garner’s death in 2014? Or how players spoke out after Trayvon Martin was shot? By allowing the players to do such actions, the NBA has shown itself to be fully in support of the BLM movement since its inception in 2013. They’ve just become increasingly more vocal about their support of the movement over time, just like everyone else who supports BLM.....
@@johnpike7141 BLM is a terrorist group
" Who are these guys?" 😂
Pretty sure Zion missed the Christmas game. How’d he pull a rating?
like they scheduled the game for zion to play on christmas before he torn his miniscus
"or go to the Geeeee Leeeeague...yuck. Nothing against it."
LMAO
Well damn, this was actually a good segment
Then why does it have so many dislikes ?? More than normal.
@@jsmithers. because they're bunch of fanboys who got hurt hearing the truth?
@@jsmithers. Probably college players wanting to get paid in the draft.
@@ososanity7118 well it wasnt the truth, was it?
@@SB-wy1bm do you?
I think Colin was unsure of Luka too so let’s just wait a minute.
Luka is not as bad as a shooter, has poor percentage from 3 mainly because he takes very contested ones and does have a physical component, height and is not scared of contact
@@DavideMGomez if you watch any of his games in Australia he was not scared to take it to the rim in a very physical league get your own opinion smh Colin is a walking cold take
Many people were unsure, from false bias and other reasons.
At 18, Doncic led his team to winning the Euro Championships and became the Euro MVP....Doncic also won ACB MVP and then was selected to the Euro All Decade Team. At 18...Lamelo played in a much weaker Australian league and yes...was Rookie of the Year...but his team finished 9th...did not even qualify for playoffs. As an NBA rookie, Doncic won Rookie of the Year...and in his 2nd year...was an NBA first Team All Star and helped get the Mavs into the playoffs. What about Lamelo? Colin make a mistake doubting Doncic...but with Lamelo...he can make up for any bad past predictions.
@@campreverbia Takes like this is what happens when you watch stats/standings and not ACTUAL games lol. If you had watch you know he went to the worst team in the whole league nd was the reason they even won a couple games . But as TRUE fans knew , Lamelo ball is taking over the nba 🤷🏾♂️
The amount of lifelong nba fans that wont watch over politics is staggering, get your head out of the sand
NFL players also have the same politics as NBA players, and their ratings arent down like the NBA ones are. And NBA ratings have been worn for like 10 years, much longer than BLM has been around. Anyone who says NBA ratings are down because of politics either doesnt understand or just is personally unhappy by the politics of the NBA.
@@trevorstephens8163 No youre wrong, I cant watch the NBA anymore. Its true about the NFL but its not as in your face, and at times I have a hard time watching as well. When watching an NBA game the politics is 100% of the time right in your face, the NFL I can pretend is isnt there. Also the NFL still feels American, the NBA has sold out to China.
The nba does not miss you lol ratings are fine
@@Jewcas770 Bruh maybe you are too much of a snowflake to not watch the NBA because of politics, but what I am saying is that there is no evidence to support the claim that politics is killing NBA ratings.
@@trevorstephens8163 I know what you are saying, the issue with what youre saying is that its wrong
Lamelo with mj is definitely going to be interesting
MJ is going to sit and watch, nothing else.
@@Mwoods2272 with the way his team is run it doesn't really seem like he does much watching either.
Just like Kwame Brown right?? Wasn't interesting and will not be interesting
"D Wade would go right AT Shaq." That's interesting, because they were on the same team, Colin.
Not there whole career lol 🤦🏾cmon he played with Shaq for like 3 years
You're just now catching on that the draft is purely speculative? Time was, at least one player each decade would be above average right away, and might even get a team to the finals by year 2 (Duncan, Magic, Bird, Dennis Johnson). It's now been 22 years since a rookie has made an all NBA or all defensive team, and we probably won't see another in 10 more years.
Uber still isnt a profitable company yet
but everyone knows or uses uber
The opening take was spot on.
“The kids disappear into the nba ether” spot on lol
I think we don't know these guys because there was no NCAA tournament, march madness is usually when people start figuring out who people are in college basketball
Agree for the most part
Agreed.
Goes to show why the NFL is so much more marketable. Half the time during this draft I was just cringing at shotty production or awkward interviews.
There was no tournament Collin. U have to realize the tournament helps common fans get to know who’s who and see what players have star intangibles and all the stuff novices of the game love
Part of the reason this draft was so boring was no March madness. That's when the emotional bonds are really attached. But his take was still good and valid. The only prospects I really cared for this year were lamelo and tre jones cause duke last year were very fun and we've all been watching lamelo since 2016 lol .
Think Skip and Colin tryna say the same thing, but Colin explained it much better.
Yeah agree cause Skip made no sense the other day, on the verge of being slightly disrespectful
"magic was a 6'9 point guard...he had a physical presence"
Well lamelo is 6'8 Colin, not sure if this was an oversight while you were writing your script
Colin only talks basketball because it’s popular. He is a casual fan with a huge platform
I love his take on NBA draft and college basketball.
you're nuts if you think politics and the China hypocrisy didn't hurt the NBA ratings.
He never said it didn’t but the ratings have been going down for 10 years not just now
They might have been slipping, but they went off the cliff this year...
@@soonerintexas.3845 its a watered down product. too many teams, no defense and politics was the final nail in the coffin.
@@dylflah7630 I agree completely.
This Colin’s problem. He makes very straight line statements but doesn’t really have conclusive evidence to back it up. He uses political views and the past to predict the future. We have no idea how good any of these players are going to be
In fairness I’ve never seen Colin express political views
@Double O_O Benji that might be the worst analysis I've ever seen
@Double O_O Benji wtf 6'7 curry?!!? when did curry ever avaraged 25% from 3? and curry takes WORSE shots than lamelo so dont' even use the bad shot selection excuse
I'm just look at the past 10 years of NBA drafts? Most of those players have disappeared into the ether like he said
@Double O_O Benji Lamelo will be a bust just like his brother
He brought back the crown moulding and granite countertops bit! Made my day!
Anyone analyst talking about Melo has not watched a full game he has played in years, and has no idea what his strengths and weakness are. The last time an analyst has watched him play he was six inches shorter.
This dude lost all his credibility when he said Jordan needed pippen and all Lebron needs is a basketball 🤣
He is that typical old white guy.. Only sees the world threw his narrow window
But he did need Scotty without him he wouldn’t have won no matter how great he was
Jordan never won a playoff series without pippen, and in 2018 you could basically say all Lebron needed was a basketball 🤣 that doesn't mean Lebron's better than Jordan, most people don't think that, it's just looking at things from a certain point of view 🤷
@@chimmychonga7793 I know that but he can’t just act like Lebron didn’t need Dwade, Bosh, Ray Allen, Kyrie, Love, AD, and Rondo.
@@RUTHLESSambition5 Yeah all those typical old white guys who love LeBron.
That had to be the weakest nba draft in a longtime.
I am going to be honest with you, I had no interest watching the NBA Draft, and I love drafts. I watched college football instead in ESPN2. This was the first NBA Draft in my memory, that I didn’t watch. I didn’t care enough to watch.
College sports is INCREDIBLY important. It's arguably more important than the pros. I asked several sports fans at casinos college football vs NFL which one do you like more? 3 out of 4 said college football.
Yet the NFL gets way higher ratings than college football.
Golden State really should've drafted LaMelo. He would be learning under two of arguably the greatest shooters of all time but you can still build his experience coming off the bench
The problem with college 🏀 is college don't pay and going straight to the NBA does. There are very few athletic people who can play 🏀 , they are supere rare. Not like football where you can get multiple good players from collegeand 18-19 year olds are not readyfor the nfl. Supply and Demand.
Some say a free college degree is payment enough but its really not, specially with some of the ridiculous majors they give to players just so they can get good grades.
Confirmed Colin doesn’t know anything about the nba outside of the big markets teams.
“Lamelo is a decent shooter, Lonzo is a terrible shooter.” This statement is factually incorrect. Lamelo is coming into the nba a 25% 3pt shooter, granted most of that is due to poor shot selection but his release is just as broken as lonzos was when he entered the league. Lonzo just came off a season where he shot 38% from 3. I really wish media personnel would stop making statements when the most recent information they’re using seems to be 2 years old.
I was just about to say that. I agree 100%. I hate that the Media trashes Zo for no reason. the Media never talks about how great of a defender he is
Just pay those college players and they will gladly play a few years there
one solution to this problem is saying you either come out of high school or you have to wait 2 years in college or whatever path you take but there’s no coming out after one season. i don’t see what other way there is
Yes, college helps build personal brands before the draft but it also helps build the NCAA brand and the NBA brand at the cost of the players who were not allowed to make money there (until next year but even then the rules are vague.) Wherever the talent goes, eyes will follow and most likely the path in the end will be the G league because it's more aligned with the NBA brand and they'll be paid straight up.
Really shows how much this guy actually watches sports. If you watched an ounce of cbb last year, then you knew everyone in the draft
Lol no you didn't. I watch cbb every year. After the lottery half the names were "big" for a month at max. Ntm you had no March madness last year which carries into the hype of players. Or how most of the players haven't played in 7-8 months.
Lol no
@@Rathkan yeah sure you my watch cbb, but my point is that a media person who somewhat covers the sport like himself should know almost all the players. and i promise you I knew them. Just because you may not know them doesn't mean i dont
💯, the one and done rule is hurting the nba, and college basketball. It’s so sad, they needs more time to development
@Shido Abshir I think it should be out of high school if you really good, or they have to go Atleast 3 years in college like the nfl.
@Shido Abshir that’s how it is on the nfl my dude. Players need time to develop and grow. College does that to men
@Shido Abshir yes, that’s still pretty young my dude, cmon now
@Shido Abshir nfl understands the value of college football. The nba rolls it’s eyes at college basketball. That’s the main issue
@Shido Abshir you relize that players coming into the nfl are 21,22,23. That’s prefect for rookies. I get the nba is different, but developed is key. If they are that good, then yes they can go the league
Colin is the best sports analyst there is. He's got so much common sense, he just understands things fundamentally.
Lool yeah and lavar will beat me 1v1

If you didn't know Anthony Edwards, Lamelo Ball, James Wiseman, Cascious Stanley, Nico Mannion, Tyrese Maxey, Vernon Carey, Rj Hampton etc. Then congratulations, you're just not a basketball fan. Yall literally had segments on Lamelo since he was 14 and RJ Hampton once he decided to go to Australia. This is what happens when you have no clue what you saying on national television 🤦🏿♂️
If LaMelo's court vision gets any better he'll be able to see right thru Colin Cowherd.
LaMelo will be like Kwame Brown
In regards to the second take, this is why obi toppin is a hall of famer
BLM was founded in 2013, Colin. Your west coast political bias is showing.
Colin... You clearly don't know Lamelo... He has been attacking the ring all his life playing with not just bigger physical players but also lot older than him...
I think him and his brothers will change the league to a fast pace style basketball 7 sec offense.
Collins missing on this one. His technologically progressive as he has been building his brand of business, you would think he would account for how the future might change how the public is introduced to players.
Not to mention the NBA is a player-oriented league, so at the end of the day it's about what's in the player's best interest.
It being a players league might be why the NBA draft is irrelevant. It's time for owners to reign in the players.
Melo will be a star just watch
Zion Williamson: "I don't love you back Colin, but you aight"
Colin: "4:07"
why would colin say the warriors are trying to move wiseman? They need a center and with klay out hes a good fit there and a great rebounder
Damn.. this take didn't age well.
That opening take was on the money! This is why I love the Herd
Nobody knows who Melo is bruh he’s a killer trust me he’s gonna do some great things
@jack lumsden obviously he do Nosey
Wild take
@jack lumsden i played against him at some AAU tournaments
The other issue with the NBA is how they wiped out the defensive strategies of the 90's for exclusively 3's and "pass (insert your team's LeBron) the ball" strategy. They have waayyy too many games, and without defense and physical play the games are only interesting and relevant for the last two minutes (unless one team has run away with it, and then it isn't interesting at all). Let teams be physical and defensive again, so bring back 80's-90's basketball, and I can almost guarantee it will be more fun to watch.
The reason we don’t know these kids was because of no march madness. We all knew Zion, Ja Morant, and rj because of madness....
And they were a lot better than all these players in this years draft
No it’s been like this for 10 years. One and Done and are hurting the nba. It’s awful
Fun fact the 90-91 Bulls was the youngest roster at that time to ever win a championship. Only 3 players (1starter) was 30 years old or older and none of the players had been to a championship before.
I feel like this is one of those videos that’ll end up on cold takes like 3-4 years from now lol
Every player wants a super team now. There is no loyalty in both ways. If I know who is going to win before the season even starts, why am I watching?
Also, apparently shooting 38 percent on 8 threes a game is a "terrible shooter" I swear Colin doesn't watch basketball
bruh thats his fg% not his 3😂😂😂
@@justno984 Lonzo Ball FG% last season: 40.3% 3p%: 37.5%
- Overall FG% 40%
- 3-pointers 37.5%
- Free throws 56%
Lonzo isn't a good shooter, but he is improving.
Lamelo dominated in the drew league against grown men, played in Australia, and he’s 6’8. He’s not little anymore. And lonzo is not a terrible shooter 😂😂
The NBA is turning into a showcase rather than a competitive sports league. You get drafted to work your way to a super team with a max deal.
*BLM becomes big in 2014*
Colin: "BLM wasn't around six years ago!"
🤥🤥🤥🤥
The nba wasn't promoting BLM is what he meant. It wasn't around the nba 6 years ago.
Colin "There was no black lives matter 10 years ago, 9 years ago, 8 years ago, 7 years ago, 6 years ago, 5 years ago, 4 years ago, 3 years ago, 2 years ago" Cowherd
Too early to write off Lamelo.. he has the potential to be a star
This was a response to outkick, but this take is correct. Key word is Collins says is "Politics didn't help" it's not what caused ratings to go down what it's a factor for sure.
Very strange that he talks about excitement in NFL yet the in play time is minimal taking away from any excitement that could possibly build? A stop and start game (which NFL is) can never be exciting because the play never allows momentum to gain quickly.
"if Zion went didn't go to Duke he would of just been another internet sensation...?" uhhhhhhh internet sensations don't avg. 22.5 ppg in their rookie yr. Those are all time great numbers.
They are great numbers and that’s his point. More people care bc we watched him already at Duke. Take Doncic for example. He had a similarly amazing rookie year averaging 21/8/6 but let’s be honest, no one was watching Mavs games for Luka up until this past year and that’s bc he was just an “internet sensation” coming into the NBA. Had he been in the spotlight before the NBA like Zion was, he would’ve been a much bigger deal in his rookie year. Zion without Duke is just another internet sensation that most NBA fans would catch on to after their rookie year
@@Mexicutionerx9 Some guys need college some don’t. It all depends on where your game is at from a cerebral standpoint. Lebron was so successful early because he had a very high basketball IQ.
@@princerock4555 Guys like LeBron, Kobe, etc. are the exceptions, not the rule. You’re right that some of these guys don’t need college but the point being made is that the NBA would be a lot more enjoyable if we already watched these players play in big time games that NCAA ball would offer. Do you realize how many people loved to watch Dwyane Wade in his rookie year? That’s mostly bc a lot of people already watched him in Marquette and were excited to see him in the pros. They don’t need college but at least 1 year of it would elevate their stardom coming in and make people care more about NBA draft prospects
@@princerock4555 You are speaking from a basketball sense. Cowherd is speaking from a marketing sense.
@@deepvoicedude4749 it makes no sense for him to compare basketball and football from a marketing sense. Basketball is the second most popular global sport. Football is way down the list. Football is most popular in this country that’s pretty much it even baseball is bigger outside of America. Only people that really complain about basketball being boring are Americans that live in non major cities. From a realistic standpoint.
In his second year in the NBA, Lamelo Ball is officially a NBA All-Star!!! Collin your a goofy
He is right though that the NBA draft is so lame after the the 5 player taken
College Basketball and College Football are two different things. College Football has always had a bigger platform and more interest. I mean we literally watch it on one of the biggest holidays, New Years Day.
He’s definitely ROY
I don't think I heard The Admiral's name once in your argument about champions.
Basketball is boring because there is 82 games and 30 of them are irrelevant.
Simply put, the amount of NBA ready players available to draft has deceased drastically. The way the NBA game is played today, you have to be able to shoot well to spread the floor, have good handle to attack close outs with variety and play intelligent off ball defense. Most draft college players won't have all three components period!!
Colin I need money NOW! Going to college to play one year. You got to use the same logic with that example.
Just boomer talk is all.
THE BEST TAKE COLLIN EVER HAD
Didn’t age well
Lamelo is a much better Basketball player then both his older brothers put together hands down
This was a great take by Colin. He's right on this subject all of the way.
Colleges needs to pay their players!!!
You’ll be doing what you always do, say something like that then retract your statements a week later as if there isn’t tape of what you said prior
I rlly have to agree with Colin on college players and the draft, I can't even remember who the 4th pick was and I saw it 10 minutes ago
he's right about melo. He avaraged 3 ft per game. That says he doesn't like contact. He even prefers taking a floater than taking it to the chest of his defenders. JUST WATCH THE HIGHLIGHTSI. Oh and he was a below avarage finisher. He was a 45% finisher
Well yeah obviously no NBA team wants the version of LaMelo Ball we saw last year. He was drafted purely on potential.
@@harrygarris6921 good luck
