Thanks for showcasing Watson. He deserves the recognition. He’s in the best situation ever w/ Malone, Jokic, Murray and the overall system the Nugs run for all to succeed.
when watson and braun get a respected 3 its dangerous
The Denver bench is better this year than last. The younger players have all improved and fit in great.
I'd say the potential/ceiling is higher with the current bench. But consistency and performance, they have some work to do to match what the bench did last season.
Swatson shines
From what I've heard, the coaches at UCLA had nothing against Peyton, knowing that he was hugely talented, but they had great upperclassmen players who he wasn't going to take minutes from as a freshman.
Yeah, they had a lot of upperclassmen come back that they weren’t expecting to be back so it led to a log jam
I came across your video today, and really enjoyed it. I will definitely be subscribing. I'm a huge P-Wat fan. He did a very good interview on the DNVR Denver Nuggets podcast recently, and comes across as a very introspective, well spoken and intelligent young man who has earned the respect of his teammates and Coach Malone. In that interview, he stated that Jokic has taken him under his wing. P-Wat explained that he's trying to read the game better, and approaches Joker about what he sees and if he's reading the floor correctly. When P-Wat is on the bench, Joker will go down and sit next to him when he's off the floor and they'll discuss what they see. Peyton stated that he learns from his mistakes and never wants to repeat the same mistake again, and I appreciate that about his work ethic. I think the future is bright for this young man, and I can't wait to see what he does in the future! Also, you commented about doing a KCP video. I would love to see that! I don't think he gets enough attention for what he does as a defender.
Yeah, I did an interview with him during summer league his rookie season and he was one of the more insightful interviews I had.
🙄
I have a feeling he will be a key sub come playoffs and that next year, we will see a force. This guy, Braun and Strawther are going to keep the championship window open for a number of years.
As a Nuggets fan, we are stoked about Peyton Watson. He's bought into coach Malone's system and with every game he plays, is becoming an important part of Malone's system. They sky is the limit for Swatson!
After seeing him go off on my Celtics I’ve been looking into him more and I’m scared of what’s to come😭
I’ve been talking about Watson. 2-3 years and he is going to be an absolute animal. Nuggets championship “window” is way wider than they are given credit for.
Yeah. I definitely think Denver can win 4-5 more championships with Jokic and this team.
Nice someone else recognized PWat! My favourite player on the Nugs I just love his energy and attitude towards the game. When his shots start falling more watch out!
I hope KCP wants another run at a title more than a few million more to play somewhere else, but I won't judge him for getting paid one last good contract if he chooses this offseason.
Watson still needs to just let the game come to him on offense and stop forcing the issue, but he seems to be taking coaching well so I'm hopeful he can round into a solid starter in 3 years for KCP, MPJ, or AG if one gets a great offer(trade or free agent).
I think they’ll get KCP back, they have his bird rights so they can pay him whatever and they’ll want to keep him.
@@asherlevynba true, but then they also go into the next cap apron and lose the mid level exception I think if I remember their cap space. I guess at that point it depends on how much faith they have in Pickett or another young PG they could draft or trade for or if they need to use the MLE for a Bruce or Reggie again to backup Jamal.
@@Pickn4Gold I can assure you that they’d rather have KCP than retain Reggie Jackson and have to find a KCP replacement
@@asherlevynba agreed. I'm more getting at the hole in the roster that presents behind Jamal, and how long would KCP want to commit for because he isn't going to stay this healthy for many more years
Eyyy I’ve been saying this for a year glad to see other people say it too! ❤ It’s so cool watching him get better and better, so young and so much potential it’s so awesome to see that growth
the more interesting fact to me is the team took a chance on Watson, IE coach and management. Whats more interesting is Watson is absorbing how to be a team player rather than an individual player as the whole of the NBA has not always adopted.
The fact of the matter is, in the 1940 to early 1980's an NBA team needed at least five solid starting players and a solid bench to be a great team. This changed when the Lakers only had 3 great starting players and a solid bench behind them... Further proven when the Chicago Bulls only need 3 great players along with the triangle offence and 2 decent defenders, along with a bench that was just decent enough to make a difference.. (yea I know thats going to piss people off) Even Lakers with Kobe and Shaq and a (Insert solid NBA player) along with Phil Jackson as the HC?
the point is, Lebron understood this way of winning and once he got out of cleveland he started to demand the same setup as the late 80's and 90's and thats when he started winning starting with Miami Heat and moving forward While that formula worked up until recently (2023) It appears the NBA has gone full circle and have no idea how to deal with a throwback team of the 40's 50's and 60's type of team work.. The NBA views this type of game play as boreing, lack luster and uninspired.
what the NBA seems to have forgotten is those times produced the greatest teams, greatest players, and greatest coaches that were ever produced. IE the Celtics, Bill Russell, and Arnold Jacob "Red" Auerbach...
All that said is to point out the Nuggets are doing the exact same thing that was done in the 40's, 50's and 60's through teamwork of 5 players and a solid bench and it is working!
For Sure! I have been watching Watson and he is so fortunate to be with the Nuggets...first he has Malone coaching and really pushing and directing Watson to get the most out his potential. Second, Nuggets culture is about as wholesome and team oriented as it comes...great character development for a beautiful NBA career....great Veterans on bench...generous men the starting 5....He is improving every month...They want him to be a key component of the franchise into the future. I hope it happens for him. He seems like a great kid and a consummate competitor.
I've been watching nuggets games when I get the chance. People aren't talking about him but I can see the work he's been putting in and being a solid rotation pieice as a rookie. Couldn't ask more if you're a nugs fan
Yeah he’s great for his age and development so far
Why pick watson? Because he scored more points in College than Lebron. Case closed.
er... I scored more points in College than Lebron.
He’s learning under a system that will improve his all around game. It’s good to have a solid defense minded guy to create better chances for a tough offense to increase leads and dominate teams like the Lakers.
PWat is so underrated and such a vital piece in our roster. Love Swatson 🔥
Great young player with lots of athleticism. I also like how you discussed the upcoming contract of KCP. It's really going to stink if Denver is unable to resign him. He's brought a tremendous defensive intensity to this team.
He averaged 3.3 points per game in his one year in college. Kudos to Booth.
i’ve seen a few of your videos pop up on my feed and finally decided to watch one and man you got a new sub bc this is some nice informative content. it’s always cool seeing videos on upcoming and developing players. loving the content so far, keep it up and good luck!
Porter and Murray have drastically improved on D this year though
Nice video. Watson looks solid. Will be tough for denver to retain him if he becomes too good offensively considering porter Murray and Jokic will be making somewhere around 150 mil combined when Watson is a free agent in 2 years
Holy crap did you guys see that dunk in transition against the Celtics? Avoided the steal attempt from Brown, spins to stay in bounds and then goes 1v4 and yams it.
He was great that whole game
Yeah he fills that quick one foot slasher off the dribble that Denver lost with Bruce Brown
Very good video man. If I could add any constructive criticism, I would just say to add in a couple cuts to take out the parts where you stall a little bit. It would make the audio sounds much smoother.
Yeah I've started to do that more in my most recent videos, I appreciate it!
Thank you for making this video of Swatson! Denver loves him!
was on my recommended for awhile and finally got to watch it hahah loved the video and analysis!!
Cool, thank you!
Love me some Nuggets vids, and I can't wait to see peyton in the playoffs! Love the vid n the spitballing at the end, n great clip choice!
Swatson is criminally underrated
Love your logo. Keep up the good work
Thanks man!
God bless your heart mate 🤍
His second nickname (besides Swatson) should be Inspector Gadget.
Great video! P-wat has so much upside!
Thanks - good summary
Watson has really impressed me. I think Denver is going to be a powerhouse for quite a few years. Watson could develop into a major player.
yea I thought the pick was weird too, but I learned not to doubt Denver scouting.
I’m a Nuggets fan, he’s my favorite current player.
impressive and insightful video
i think cb will replace kcp just because of fit with the other 4 starters. If we were replacing AG or MPJ it would definitely be PWAT. KCP's most important role in playing incredible defense on the elite small players in the nba. The currry's, trae youngs, shai, devin booker etc..., and against that specific group of players. Braun is a better defender than PWAT. Overall tho it definitely does look like PWAT will develop into the better overall player on both ends of the floor. Although post all star break chritian braun has quitely been playing incredbile basketball all around.
Excellent. Speaking of not talked about, win/lose this year, y isn't denver upper management and malone getting more love? Baffles me
If you’re talking about awards like COTY, I think it’s because Denver is expected to be as good as they have been
Watson is offensive game drops off hard on the road. Need to get him minutes against good teams on the road
great video Asher 🩵
W videooooo. New sub, not enough ppl tlk about pswat
Yea good points man nice 👍
Really excited about PWat's defensive upside, athelticism and pull up middy gives me hope on offense
Ur back!!
Back and better than ever
Agreed with this 100% when it came out 3 weeks ago, but Christian Braun has clearly proven to be more reliable (8-10 starting with Jamal out last week)
Still believe Peyton’s ceiling is higher than Braun, but unsure if he’ll figure it out by the end of his rookie contract at age 23
Yeah Braun has def been good the last couple weeks. The more steady player rn. However in 2 years I wouldn’t be surprised to see them flip there.
W video, who’s a comp you think for his ceiling?
Thanks man, I think on offense he could be sorta similar to Paul George with a lesser jumpshot. That would be an incredible outcome and I don't think it's likely, but that's his ceiling I think. On defense I think an All-Defensive team is a realistic ceiling.
@@asherlevynba I've always thought if he can up his rebound game, he could be another Dennis Rodman off the bench because of his length, hops, and defensive prowess.
I think that's a bit of a high bar, but I could see something in that mold. He would need to get a lot stronger though and would become more of a power forward when I think the team views him as more of a wing and forward hybrid.
Peyton's bbiq is top level. Love this kid.
Peyton Watson has stepped it up in an amazing way!!!! yay Peyton! Go Nuggets!
Us Nuggets fans have been knowing this since last year!
I love Watson. He's like our very own Herb Jones.
This dude is a keeper
He's good. Reminds me of a Siakam.
Facts go up pwat
Watson is a DawG!
Dr. Swatson
Hes nice! Real nice!!!
Shhhh,,,, somebody else will want him. He's a secret weapon
watson is lit
Love P wat, just bought his Jersey
Good video but you gotta turn up your mic
Have done in recent videos
Hey Kcp is strong and sturdy
if he solves shooting and he'll be a big thing
On defense Braun is the better option. On offense I’d already prefer strawther
reminds me of jared vanderbuilt
Think he’s a better offensive player, but defensively I could see that
If the spurs are smart, they will pay up to try and pair Watson with Wemby sooner than later. Would be the greatest defense in NBA history with those two and he won’t take shots from Wemby.
The Nuggets won’t trade him lol
Denver dodge a bullet when they let Bruce Brown walk. No he’s stinking up the joint on the Raptors with his trade value diminishing by the second.
Bruce would be playing at the level he was last season in Denver. He’s a perfect Jokic player and isn’t in a situation to be utilized correctly.
Nobody outside of Denver that is...
I think Nuggets are going to retain KCP, he's damn good
Oh yeah probably, was more talking in the next few seasons like 2027-28
Is Watson the reason Ryan Dunn from UVA will get drafted in the 1sr this year?
Probably because it’s a weak draft class
he shut kd down he made em go 0/10 hes gonna get playing time in the playoffs and if they win again hes gonna be a big reason as to why
He is not showing playmaking on the court, that's just not true. When he is near the rim he goes for the points even when he has a drop off that would have a better shot.
Believing thw words of a player is a stupid way to define the player. Watch him. The kid never looks to pass at this point in his career.
He’s shown good playmaking chops in transition
he can get tunnel vision when he drives and it results in an really ugly double clutch lay up that he misses often. It's just growing pains. @@asherlevynba
he was a top HS recruit. college was a waste of his time 😄
He was a lot better in HS than he was in college fs
PWat!
But he has a commercial
GET THAT SHIZ OUTTA HERE!!
louder, max that shit. yell at me
The fact that you doubt low picks when Jokic proved those don't make much sense is kinda funny
It’s not that I doubt low picks, I’m pretty high on Peyton now. But I watched his UCLA tape and he was a different player.
Vince Williams Jr & GG Jackson are miles better than
Gotta get views tho brother
Defensive skills don’t always show in the stats and don’t look flashy. But defense is huge
