KOC the real MVP of this draft.

KOC gotta shake his head sometimes when Bill and Ryan talk nonsense

It's so cool that Ryen can do podcasts while incarcerated

Can y'all just let Kevin O Conner talk😂 He is the only one who doesn't say wild shit.

Great to rewatch

Biggest Winners: 1. Houston Rockets (Jalen Green, Alperen Sengun, Josh Christopher, Usman Garuba). 2. Charlotte Hornets (James Bouknight, JT Thor, Kai Jones, Scottie Lewis) 3. Orlando Magic (Jalen Suggs (steal) & Franz Wagner (versatile) 4. Warriors (Jonathan Kuminga & Moses Moody (both value steals) 5. Detroit Pistons (Cade Cunningham (no brainer), Luka Garza, Isaiah Livers, Balsa Koprivica 6. LA Clippers - Keon Johnson, Jason Preston

My charlotte Hornets did good got a big win in this draft.

Kevin Porter Jr is a huge piece of there future. KMart, Tate, and all those young guys. Rockets have a bright future 🤘🏾

Please just let KOC talk, Ryen & Bill are outta their depth

Russillo doesn't really know what he's talking about w/ Kevin Porter Jr. Yeah, the Rox were a mess this year. That had almost nothing to do with KPJ. He was brought up from the GLeague way later in the season and was really good in his short time in the NBA, and while Jalen Green was ballin out, showcasing his talents on the Ignite team, KPJ was actually leading the league in scoring with 7 rebounds and 7.5 assists. He's shown he can run the offense, averaged >7 assists on the Rockets with a team around him that had no idea how to put the ball in the basket. He needs to cut down on his turnovers, but he is very much in line to run PG after they somehow move John Wall. He's not the only guy that is a roster lock, either. Jae'sean Tate is the best do-literally-everything role player that no one knows about because he's on Houston, and Kenyon Martin Jr. as a versatile rotation big that can score in multiple ways if needed but play elite defense 1-4 and swallow rebounds. Lastly, people just love to run with nonsense stories and run wild. Wood "is all about himself" ? Based on what? He's consistently only ever talked about how appreciative of Houston he is that they thought that highly of him after being tossed around by various teams. All the negative press he gets is really just a player that assumes a 'cornerstone' role of a rebuilding franchise and is frustrated by losing so much. AKA he's human. This does not = he's a drama queen and problem in the locker room. All those guys are tight.

Usman Garuba & Alperen Sengun are going to be the next Domantas Sabonis & Myles Turner, offensive/defensive frontcourt pairing.

Charlotte to me, is the winner of the draft....had potentially one of the best scorers fall to 11 in Bouknight, a lob threat and potential flood spacer at the 5 with Jones and in Thor, a young, long strong defender who can grow to be the best defender on a team

Charlotte did great

Keon Johnson is a guy who going to be much higher on a lot people’s list when we redraft this class

Anyone listening to this before 2022 draft?

Was waiting for this

Masai's going to prove everyone wrong

Hornets are winners . Getting bouknight & kai jones to add to that young core is crazy

Rockets had a great draft but they are still going to struggle on defense for a few years. I do like a lot of players on the team though and they’re sneaky deep. Green, Sengun, Garuba, Porter, Wall, Wood, Tate, Martin, and Christopher. Just need to improve on defense and get a PG of the future.

russillo awkward af when others talkin

I think the Cavs are huge winners in the zoomed out sense, they have a such a talented roster at every position with Mobley now. He can play every possession with the ball in his hands and he has talented offensive players around him.

As a Knicks fan I don't have no complaints from the draft they made a lot of calculated moves. They acquired assets and made three solid selections in the draft.

Funniest part about this is Draymond literally told the owner to draft Kuminga and Moody before their pick even came up and they didn’t even think he’d fall to him.

bald dude BUGGIN!!! KPJ is definitely part of our Future

What on earth was up with Russillo for the first 2 mins of this video?!

“Stay away from Turkish Hash” 😂😂😂

After what the raptors did, I think they got a future all-star true point forward without anyone realizing it. And in today's Nba, every championship team has had at least one. But their super rare because you can't teach a small forward or PF how to be a guard. Point centers are even more rare because that combination is hard to even happen naturally.

we need to find this dude Devin O'Connor

They can get Chet or Paola next draft. Pair them with Jalen, Josh, KPJ and KJ Martin

Jalen Rose claimed his momma (not daddy, his daddy was absent) invented the name Jalen…. Power move I can’t believe every Jalen on earth is named after Jalen Rose

I thought GSW did great. I get the whole win-now mode, but the key is the health of Klay and the growth of Wiseman. If those happen, i think loading up on future stars could do them solid since Steph could play for quite a bit longer and contribute for a while.

KOC... the next "from analyst to GM" guy???

I think the idea of the Spurs losing their draft touch is a bit unfair. This pick was a surprise to all, but I think they still know what they are doing. They took Keldon Johnson two years ago with the 29th pick and he is arguably a top 5 player in that draft.

Rockets won 7 in a row after Harden trade, then Wood got hurt, and missed a lot of games. They made a conscious decision to tank, because OKC owned their pick if it dropped below 4....They're not that bad. Got a lot of talent...they just need to find a way to rid themselves of Wall and Gordon.

Give us more Rewatchables!!

as a warriors fan I'm ecstatic with what we were Able to do. I mean I would have liked a trade the picks but our picks were amazing. Kuminga falling was huge and surprising but moody was a even bigger surprise. personal I would like to keep one and trade the other but both are valid.

I hate that everytime the Rockets is mentioned on every podcast/sports show no one is mentioning the potential of Tate and how he can be a really good glue guy. I'd be happy to have him as a 3rd/4th option on my team any day. He fits with anyone as well and can play 1-4

Detroit Pistons are massive winners. Addition of cade at first overall, Isaiah Livers falling in the second round, Luka Garza is an intriguing pick at 52, and adding all of those pieces to the solid young core that they already have makes the Pistons future just look brighter and brighter.

gotta agree with Ryan here... there is not enough evidence that shows that Beal is truly pushing for an out... but at the same time, there is zero percent chance that Beal woke up today and said "wow, now we are moving in the right direction"... zero... and again, whom in their correct mind would rather have the picks taken vs Westbrook... everybody is always so down on Russ, but the run to make the playoffs was more about Russ than it was about Beal from my perspective...

Mobley: *goes 3rd with potential to be the best player from this draft* Bill: “I think the days of big men going in the lottery are over.”

Let’s go Rockets

The draft is such a guess.. I feel like OKC going with Giddey is huge! Lamelo ball was the last ROY in the NBL and look how he’s looking… Giddey broke his triple double record and he’s 18.. 6’8 pg that can do everything.. imagine him at 21?! He’s a child and been killing adult pros for years

Really tough pod for Bill

Duarte on the Knicks would’ve been a top 5 selling jersey lol

Bill Chet Holmgren or Paola are going number one next year!! They are both bigs. Then after that the big from France is going number 1 or Jalen Duren. They are going to run the next couple drafts

Spurs making me want to end it all…also Ryan is on the nose with that Turkish hash comment 😮‍💨

Sam Presti is Danny Ainge 2.0

I'll never understand the Ringer's video decision making. They post 26 minutes of a 53 minute podcast, but leave out the ending ~third where both KOC and Russillo are both dying of laughter. Would've loved to see that. Anyone only watching this video, check out the pod just after the woj vs shams talk. From that point on it's just goofy lmao. Russillo breaks in a way I haven't really heard.

KOC solo would work. Rockets had a beast draft for sure. But Cade will be a star.

As a Warriors fan I'm happy with the draft. Moody seems like a plug and play guy as Klay comes back, he can learn the movement stuff and play D. Kuminga has upside and well see. Both could be trade assets and if they are, then they still got guys slotted to be off the board. Watching Toronto since they drafted Siakam 2.0, looks that way from afar at least.

Unless the Kings are planning to trade Fox or Haliburton, then the Davion Mitchell pick totally makes no sense.

The balled headed guy loved Mobley at the #1 or #2 pick now that Cavs picked him they don't even mention him. Trust me it doesn't matter how many players you pick its the right player.

'Woods is about himself' based on what....him not staying in Detroit? Cant be based on anything at Rockets and he ewas damn near unknown before. Random assassination ffs

Scottie Barnes has insane upside, Suggs was the safe pick but Barnes easily has the most upside.

Well This Video Didn't Age Well 💀

Russillo at the beginning looks like he forgot what the show topic of the day was, and began maniacally scrolling through all the draft picks

Not a Spurs fan, but I trust the organization too.

The funny thing is how they say Orlando gets unlucky every year but this time they are convinced that the Magic got lucky. How about if Scotty Barnes turns out to be the better player? It's not like Scuggs is head and shoulders above Scotty. I read that Orlando and OKC had Scotty rated ahead of Jalen. I like Jalen Scuggs as a player but I think Scotty is just as good.

I'm really upset that indiana drafted somebody that's gonna be basketball old in 5 years when Moses was still on the board

Primo is gonna be special!!

Draymond texted Bob Myers to draft Kuminga & Moody

Why does Rusillo look like Butters whenever someone else is talking?

So tell me why exactly does Presti not just keep Sengun? Those 2 picks they got for him are heavily protected anyway, and that kid just won the MVP as an 18 yr old in one of the best basketball leagues outside the NBA. I mean he's not a sureshot offcourse, but getting a promising young prospect at 16 who actually could fit in pretty good with your young team? Are they collecting picks JUST to eventually trade them away for 1 or 2 stars? If you wont keep a player like Sengun at 16, who IS he going to keep? Would have loved to see him play along Poku, Dort and SGA

Aaron Holiday making the wiz a double winner lmaoooooo

The Bill Simmons Padcast

Bill talks about getting centers for cheap but doesn’t mention Mobley or Barnes at 3 and 4

Orlando is such a big winner that they drafted a guy (Suggs) who they themselves ranked below the previous pick (Barnes). Sarcasm intended.

Rusillo and Simmons are dopes!!

Garuba the steal of the draft played in the best european league and played against men.

Why can’t you put the whole podcast on. You lied to us bill about the ringer not changing under Spotify. I miss the full podcasts. Thanks for selling your company and changing.

Lol oh now i feel like perk

Kevin porter can actually play idk what ur talking about

POST THE WESTBROOK TAKES !

Houston Charlotte Pistons Clippers Warriors

Obviously Celtics are the winners and if they don't turn out to be winners it's because of Kyrie. Lifetime winners stamp, approved.

Porter is definitely trade bait for the future. If they can get a young 3 and D ball handler its a wrap

The celtics deserve everything of this point guard nightmare after how they did Isaiah Thomas

Kpj dropped 50 on jrue holiday yet hes not apart of houstons future? 🤣

Josh Giddey

The hawks had a top 3 draft IMO jalen Johnson and sharif cooper two lottery type talents watch out I’m just sayin!

KOC needs Russillo checking his d***a** anti-chemistry takes Every Podcast. I love it. THANKYOU RYEN. Love this.

Really bad houston takes from dude on the right

Detroit Pistons won the draft

This recap reiterates how little the talking heads in sports actually know about teams and players. It's funny these guys are assigning grades but don't know half of what these teams know about draft prospects.

I'll start the Golden State fake trade machine lol Wiggins, Wiseman and Moody for Siakim n Baynes.

These guys kno rookies dnt make impacts like that to the teams they go to

10:29 This point seems very ignorant of the fact the last two nba finals were won by a team with the more dominant big man, who both happened to be lottery picks

Russell Westbrook

Steal of the draft: Sharife Cooper

Pistons will have a better draft than Houston book it because three of the 4 hit over 40% over three. Livers would have gone much higher if he didn't get injured. Garza is an offensive monster who only has to prove with his 30 lb weight loss that he can defensively stay on the court. I think this will be apparent especially once everyone realizes the positions aside from Cade that they were drafted at in the second round.

I swear last year KOC and Bill loved Wiseman. Now they do nothing but trash him. I look forward to next year when they trash Mobley or Green.

Watch Ryen the first 1st minute of this podcast imitating a methhead on zoom call.

Spurs front office has 100% trust on their player development guys, taking the youngest guy possible, intending to mold him like a formless piece of clay. I just have my reservations on their scouting corps as they do not have the same advantage on international players anymore. If anything, the new GM is tending to just pick American kids recently (the Samanic pick was pre-new GM right?)

There was not a fall off in talent after Sengun lol🤣🤣🤣.

What kills me about this. this is a very deep draft there where a lot of winners in this draft instead rating winners and looser just rate the teams. These guys as I'm listening to them clearly did not do there homework. 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

16:44 so true. Beal is selfish and only wants money

I dont always agree with KOC, but he was the MVP last night. Dude can multitask.

Kings tho :/ ifkt

Did Rusillo actually play overseas like Bill mentioned?

Spurs biggest loser and I'm a spurs fan. Primo could be good but why not trade down????. And we don't even need another guard we needed a pf or C. I won't be mad if we start signing bigs or trade for some but knowing the spurs it's like if we are scared to make trades. I'm so confused with our selection, half our team is guards. How is primo supposed to get minutes... Oh wait he isn't we drafted him to be on our G league 😐😞😞😭😭
