As a Spurs fan, I miss the Splash Bandicoot Patty Mills
He was cold asf bro ngl
He’s playing for Australia this year
Patty Mills is easily the best of any of these picks.
Sure idk how good wiggins can become
Followed by E'Twaun Moore
As of now, but soon Brony is 😂
@@NoName-yi3oz hopefully
The only reason why Bronny is the 55th pick is because that's the pick the Lakers had.
If Lakers had the 32nd pick they would have used that for Bronny.
Bronny only worked out for 2 teams and Rich Paul was telling other teams if they drafted Bronny he would send Bronny to Australia
So if the Lakers had the 18th pick, LA still would’ve drafted Bronny? 👀
@@RudieObias he was going to be their 2nd round pick
Lmao ok rob pelinka. Get to work on getting a center please
If the Lakers had the 30th pick, they would just leave Bronny undrafted and sign him as an undrafted free agent.
@@tntcrewEJlol are you one them Real Laker Fans? I heard they didn't exist.
Lots of research. Great video. Cheers 💪🏾
Appreciate the support!
Ben Wallace was undrafted.
They put Ben Wallace in this list
irrelevant sir.hahahaha
4 of this players played for Partizan Belgrade (Roberts,Joffrey,Marcus Paige,Williams Goss) so in couple of years Bronny is here too
Don't compare those guys to Lebron James Jr. They didn’t have contracts. It's ok to pick Lebron James Jr. 55th, but to give him a 4 year contract is just fucked up!
BRUH. IT'S NOT YOUR MONEY. HECK IT'S NOT EVEN YOUR TEAM. JUST WATCH AND RELAX
Not your money, why do you care
Bru just put the fries in the bag 😂😂… Bronny names generates Money. Look this probably the most views this channel ever got. NBA is a business. Bronny can score 2 points and make headlines. Broadcasters are generating millions using Bronny name. Learn business dude. It’s a reason we have workers and we have business owners. Everyone isn’t meant to run a business.
@@loudertv8676People saying "its not your money" "why do you care" has some kind of comprehension problem. 😂. Its a comparison between 55 picks and thats the biggest difference there. Understand the difference man. Your like 10yrs old or something...
@@dave52g You're so astute at deducing ones intellect from something mundane as the 55 pick of the draft. You must be a genius.
NONE of them received a fully guaranteed 8 mill 4-year contract day one like Bronny!!!
You see the ads and revenue snd attention bronny is attracting? That pays fir the contract
@@Bamgbamgbamg Yea and people stop to watch car wrecks too...
None of them were worth the money...
@@Bamgbamgbamg are they still going to watch when the Lakers are 12-33 in last place?
@@frankdux3605 doesn’t matter attention = money in this instance, he’s most talked about in the whole draft, contract reflects that
The biggest take from these 55th picks is they averaged 15-20 points in their last college seasons, then dropped to 2-5 for any nba games they played, well fuk me that would mean Bronny will average less than 1
Don’t know how you got that, Bronny been showing out. Past 2 games…Everyone not being coached by a goat, everyone don’t live with one of the goats. 😂😂.
None if those guys ever got 15-20 minutes on average in rotation. Bronny will at least average 2 points and half the assist in those 20 minutes
There is more to productive basketball than scoring. If he would be a contributor like a son of another legend Gary Payton II, it would be a positive value.
@@Max-kw2hp GP2 is a two-way player and can put up the numbers if coach said he should. Excellent cutter and roller if you've seen his clips. Always moving without the ball. Bronny on the other hand doesn't know how to play organized basketball (yet) and most of the time can be seen day dreaming on the court, something papa James would never do even when he was a rookie.
@@RobSoRandom They are hardly defending him of course he could make shots. You could take a D3 starter and he'd knock down some shots in summer league.
You do your homework, this channel will blow up.
Fans don’t have unrealistic expectations for 55th draft picks. What they do have is contempt for all the press coverage as though the “sports reporters” were unaware that anyone else had been drafted. They aren’t sports analysts, they’re tools.
Don’t act dumb. Certain names get clicks and others dont. Did you expect anything else?
TJD has been killing it with the warriors
How many of them got paid 7m without a single NBA game played though?..
How many 55th picks brought in the revenue that bronny will? His name is a cash cow. Lakers about to make a pretty penny selling merchandise with bronny's likeness.
@@Chiefmane1nobody is going to buy his merch if he's playing like garbage though
@@Chiefmane1 you mean his father's name
@@ThePrufessa his jerseys already sold out.
@@Chiefmane1his father paid him that money silly guy. Stop being a hater
I would like to see lebron, bronny and Bryce play together that would be dope
If Gui Santos improves as much as did from his 1st to 2nd seasons, he could be a solid rotation player for years to come.
Comedically named Jay Scrub is top tier commentary. I literally burst out laughing. We wish the best to all these players but I had to add this comment after that. Hilarious bro.
Appreciate the love man! Yea that name was just too good to not make a comment on haha
So 4 of the last 21 guys picked 55 have been NBA rotation players for more than ONE season. And the outlier GOAT is a 5' 11 career backup PG who never even DREAMED of making an All Star team?
But it was sacfilege to use that pick on a 19 year old floor spacer with elite athleticism and defence. Who was an All American and the 27th prospect in his college class before needing heart surgery and missing over half the year. But hes since been cleared and had arguably the best Combine showing of his ebtirw draft class.
Oh and that player so happens to be the 1st son of your legendary ACTIVE franchise cornerstone? Yall get outta here
AJ Johnson average 2.9 points a game and went in the first round this year Even though I think he'll be a good player.
Most of these guys averaged about 15 pts in college, and then 2 in the NBA. Which means Bronny will average a negative number.
U wishing
You lying 🤥
So he will be laying it in at the wrong end of the court? That'll be interesting. 😂
For the case of Mr. Bricky J.; at least there won't be long stints of fake injuries, for his team to spare half of his monthly salary earnings. Due to the fact, that the Bron's family, would be sick from concern, about: their youngster family member, that has a cardiac health history, with some troublesome.
I'd say that Mr. Bricky J.; is just going to continue to role-play as a NBA basketballer, at the S. Bay Lakers; until the L.A. Lakers server, next overall temporary maintenance shutdown.
As for the NBA itself: Mr. Bricky J.; is basically going to struggle to average 5 minutes per game. Let alone, he's other, in game stats.
And the best role-plays, are the ones in which: the player eventually, turns the key on most of his main subjects, from his same role-playing sessions.
Most of these dudes did NOT average 15 in college. Stop it.
Selecting Bronny James was a BUSINESS decision not a basketball one. Not only does it keep his dad happy but it will get a lot of people to go to games or to watch them on TV, etc that otherwise wouldn't. And don't get me started on the merchandising opportunities!!
What most of you fail to remember is that the NBA is a business. Even as successful of a career as Patty Mills has had, I really don't think anyone has geared up to go see a game because he was playing. The flipside is EVERY city that has an NBA team will have people purchasing tickets to see the Lakers this year simply because Bronny James may enter the game. 7m is a drop in the hat compared to what revenue will be generated by this pick. The rich will always find a way to stay rich, while the rest of the population stresses on things that don't affect their bottomline. 👀
theres HUGE diffence between all the other 55th picks they averaged high point totals and NONE got guaranteed contracts before they even played summer league
Bronny has a chance to be a role player that plays around 8 min a game perhaps more..(he has some athleticism.. . Eventually he can get used to playing against NBA talent ( everyone) and his father is giving him all the tools to succeed.
The amount people who say "55th pick gets too much coverage" (in some shape or form) while giving him yet more coverage is comical. Drones
There is players who had been drafted lower and had better careers than most of these guys
E'Twaun Moore is well-regarded among Magic fans
It’s or that he is burdened with expectations; it’s that his game hasn’t proven itself and he got a guaranteed four year contract regardless of performance.
Every single player averaged more than 5ppg before getting drafted and still didn't get a guaranteed contract damn..
Here before this has 500k views
Nobody cares bruh. Stop making comments just to see them on your phone screen.
If he averages 4 points and steps foot in the NBA that would mean he’s an average #55 pick. A lot of haters mad over that. They’ll move the goalposts if he does it.
For sure man. Like I said in the video, the bar really isn't that high, so him just stepping foot on an NBA floor is an accomplishment in itself
Oh no, Bronny is far below average for a 55th pick. Listen to the college stats in this video. They were all better than Bronny including the ones who never played one minute in the NBA.
Most of the 55th picks averaged 15-20 in college so bronny averaging 4 points in college and summer league makes it unlikely he achieved that in the regular nba season
But he isn’t an average 55th overall pick. Him getting to the league with his current numbers really means that Bron said “start him idc what you say” because Lakers can’t afford to upset Lebron at this point.
@@RurbanWalkermost of these players played 2-3 years in college some of them not even d1, bronny played 9 games in college. Nba teams like one and dones they can mould them easier to play their specific roles compared to a college developed player whos older and has harder to break tendencies
Only player I remember from this list is Etwan Moore and Patty Cakes
It's a mixture of marketing and hopes of a SSJ effect since his father is lebron
That's a cool video. That broadcasts some relevant content, regarding the sports modality of Basketball.
Still... Everyone had to keep on reviewing that same video, for every 10 seconds. Due to the fact, that the narrator, wasn't narrating at all. It was only reading a piece of paper, quicker than a "ho," would start lying about, her real age.
And even the written text, from that same piece of paper, had way too much haze in it. Next time, try to display some of the relevant info, on the screen and over one of the player's picture. So that the narrator can pause its narrative, a few times; while a base soundtrack, keeps the viewers safe, from getting too bored.
@@aberdeenkiko hey man, I appreciate hearing your feedback! The creative process for every video is entirely done by me (script writing, narration, editing, etc). Thankfully what I’ve been doing so far is getting pretty good results, but I’m always learning and looking to improve each video to make them more entertaining and engaging
Etwaun moore could of had a better nba career but is growth was stunted by the celtics not really playing rookies
Im getting bronny over anyone else on the second round. 95% of those players are out of the league in 1-2 years anyway, might as well make big bucks using Bronny 🙌
The first 55th pick that gets to be a starter in the summer league
Jaylen Brown called it.
Patty mills is one of the best picks in nba draft history
Jokic has had a bit of hype for a second round pick
He wasn't 55th
They could pick me at 155, as long as I am getting paid...
That was Thaddeus Young
Manu Ginóbili was a 57th pick
Isaiah thomas was the last pick 2nd round pick 60 and avg 29ppg for boston one season and he is 5ft8
"...Warriors go overseas to select Brazilian player Gui Santos" You know Brazil is in South America, not across the Atlantic right? Just saying.
@@darkehorse71 triviality be damned haha. I’m sure you get what I meant, they drafted him out of country is all I was getting at there. But yes you are correct
@@HeatCheckProductions Yes I do. As Americans it's easy just to assume anyone not from America is from across the pond.
More proof people were overreacting when Bronny was selected 55th just haters
So wait, is Bronny gonna play overseas? 😂
The difference between those other 55tg picks and Bronny is that Bronny literally has EVERYTHING to his advantage. He has arguably the greatest to ever play COACHING him first hand and GUIDING HIM.
Showing him coverages, plays, really TEACHING him the game on a professional level. He has a whole organization that falls to their father’s feet.
Yes Bronny is a 55th pick but TRUST ME when I say Bronny WILL be an All Star. He WILL.
I’ll even go as far to say that he’ll most likely have an offense created around him in the future. Just watch.
Come back to this comment years later when Bronny going off. I told y’all so
MANU GINOBILI WAS 57TH IN THE SECOND ROUND.......... Draymond Green, Nikola Jokić Dennis Rodman, Manu Ginóbili, Gilbert Arenas, Jeff Hornacek, Khris Middleton, Marc Gasol, Maurice Cheeks, Paul Millsap! ALL SECOND ROUND PICKS!!!! Bronny is not even close to any of those names in what they were able to do at the NBA LEVEL!!!! 2nd round does not mean SHITTY USELESS SPOTS IN TEAMS!!!
Let’s be real if Bronny was a first round pick the hate would be a hundred times worse let that kid grow and adjust
this year is the weakest draft in nba history
They always glasing for bronny
People need to realize that literally everyone in the NBA were top players in college/ overseas leagues
I wouldn’t say top players in the nba but I would top players in their hometown
While it's not impossible, I find it hard to believe a pampered rich kid will ever have the kind of work ethic a kid fighting their way out of poverty, or even raised in a moderate middle class with the right parents.
Nice to hear that a lot of these guys managed to get a few years in overseas. Hope they were careful with their cash.
samaj !
There's hope for bronny. He had what none of them had. Fans.... He's a star already. At 55th pick all he needs to do is make the practice team and it will sell out tickets anywhere.
they not bronny tho
2:29
Bronnys stats are going to be inflated because LeBron will draw up plays for him under the basket
Hahahahah
Lesperm
this might be the biggest list of "who dat" in bball I've ever seen... bronny will be around longer than these dudes
🏀💪🧚♂👠🏀🍳👌
Glad you enjoyed :D
Bronny for MVP.
So this what we doing now? sure he has to get better but these youtube dudes reaching and praying this kid to fail!!!!
@@SoundsTheillest hope ur not talking about my video haha. I kept my thoughts about bronny pretty neutral in this video. I do agree that other people are being way too harsh on him tho
@@HeatCheckProductions no not your video!
THE BRONNY HATERS PUNCHING THE AIR RN
Interesting video! I think Bonny gonna have a better career than all those pics other than Patty Mills. One reason is because he’s gonna have a lot more opportunity. Hes LBJ son I bet he’s the highest paid 55th pick in the NBA history. It’s a business. He already made that money back off Jersey sales.
