the NBA needs to introduce a policy to reward teams for drafting good. The team that drafts a player should be able to exclude a percentage (50%) of the players salary from luxury tax calculations. The current luxery tax penalises teams for drafting well.

I got my doubt about him being undersized, but the kid can freaking play. He's so versatile we can run him both at the 5 and 4. We can even put him next to Jokic on AG rest minutes and stretch the floor with him just hope his shooting is staying and doesn't go back to the previous one. I love his legs to challenge players into their chest and to challenge shots. I really like everything this kid got on his skillset. He's even a really underrated passer having almost 3 per game. He got so many tools. Hope he can translate well to the NBA I just hated how the Nuggets didn't trade Nnaji + those 3 SRP to Hornets to get Micic instead of doing a Salary Dump of Reggie Jackson. Micic is the perfect player that the Nuggets need on the Lead guard role since he can play multiple gurds position and even small SF. Great passer, great leader, proven winner, decent shooter.

@@6manYT I know you didn't call it a steal, but it feels like a steal. Only time will tell. I've watched so many videos about the 2024 draft that I got the feeling that everyone got a super rookie. And in Germany there are KZitemrs who are just repeating what the American KZitemrs are saying: that the Lakers got a super player in Dalton Knecht, for example. That may all be true, but I think only time will tell. Nobody can judge today whether and which decision is good or bad. Time will tell. Every rookie will develop in their own way, some better and some will not develop at all.

@@Herz.Seele.Verstand I analyzed every first round pick selected above #22 in this draft. I broke each of them down for statistical results, their combine athletic measurements & scores, watched a bunch of tape on every one of them, & even examined which ones had NBA ready bodies. I also looked at the scouting reports, several on each player. Here's what I found; Almost every one of the players picked above DaRon Holmes was selected on the basis of potential, not what they have already done. Most only had one year of college. A couple of big men had NBA ready bodies, & the rest are skinny, needing to put on weight, in some cases at least a LOT of weight...30 pounds or more. NONE of these players had the well rounded complete game this kid does offensively, let alone the defensive tenacity & effectiveness he's demonstrated. Even where you see players who seemingly fit some of these requirements...I found major concerns about how they will translate to the next level. NONE of them who were suitable for the position they need help with would have been the fit that Holmes is. Finally, some of these players are extremely risky bets because their play on the court is not NBA quality. This was a weak draft, & for what the Nuggets need, I don't see a better player they could have selected. Even the offensive system he played in while at Dayton is tailor-made for the role he will have in Denver. There is a reason they were so hot to get this guy, & having done this homework, I now believe that yes indeed...they once again, have gotten a steal in the draft.

Those are all good points about PWat and Christian Brown and they are good players, but this year in the playoffs when it was their time to shine they didn’t show up. You can argue and say that CB did good guarding Ant bit still they needed more offense and points on his part and he didn‘t deliver. Also to add you can‘t just expect the rookie to be a plug and play type of player. Yes 3 years of college Ball sure helps but he didn’t face real bigger centers than himself in college especially in this years draft class. Usually I agree with your takes but this time it feels like you are overhyping it. The NBA season is long yes so I hope to be proven wrong. We probably won‘t resign KCP so I hope at least we sign Bogi and Im not sure If we can manage to sign somehow Valachiunas or Steven „Aquaman“ Adams. Now those would be some great signings.

I’m so confused, they used the draft to win now when they drafted Zeke Nnaji in 20-21. He has been such a star for them and a key piece season after season.

So why draft a guy who is smaller, lighter and narrower when you’ve invested all that coaching, teaching and mollycoddling and money in Nnaji?

I can sense the passion you have for the game but I can't help feel these quite hype laden videos must get tiring to make over and over again. I hope Holmes bucks the trend and has an amazing rookie season but expecting him to meaningfully contribute on a title contending team is maybe a bit of a stretch. The Nuggets banked on Watson and Braun this season to fill in some of what they missed when Brown walked away. In the end they went down bad against a really bad matchup for them in the Wolves and as you might expect in the playoffs the rotation shorted to not much more than the starting 5.

Sure Holmes is a fit, but you have a coach that doesn't play rookies. If you take his veterans away instead of playing the rookies he will ride his starters into the ground. Hence last season's results. Malone is the biggest reason the Nuggets do not have a second ring this year. Rookies can't develop when they don't get to play. Because Kroenke is cheap the Nuggets will never add high priced FA's or veterans. So they will always have a roster filled with younger players that Malone won't play.

This kid should have been a lottery pick, & Nnaji has been so bad that Malone is playing a guy who should no longer be in the NBA instead of him. This is not only a bigger need than a backup PG, but we may very well already have a backup PG. Fans think that because a rookie like Pickett didn't break into Malone's rotation that he's no good. This is faulty reasoning. Denver is leveraging the development process for young players more than any team in the NBA, & it's working. Tap the brake on the panic mode.

The only reason you don't see guys like Murray & AG showing up on All Star teams is because they make sacrifices in their game for the good of the team in a league where fans & media geeks who don't know much about the game value statistics too much. Second, we don't need this kid to become a "breakthrough star" as a rookie, & neither did the Spurs need that from Leonard in 2012. Despite that, he played 24 min a night & finished the season 4th in voting for the ROY. So your comparison is not only meaningless, it actually strengthened the argument to draft Holmes.
