The NBA Draft might be the most important day on every team’s calendar.
Splashy signings and trades dominate the discourse around NBA teams during the summer. But it's their ability to draft, develop and coach young talent that is far more predictive about their long term success.
Bryan Graham explains, Philippe Fenner illustrates.

Seattle drafted Westbrook, because they didn’t get stolen to OKC until the week after the 08 draft

@SibandaThabiso 23 дня назад

What’s also interesting is that the draft + salary cap model is meant to increase parity, but if anything it almost doubles down the effects of having good organisational structure. Some of the best run organisations seemingly find a way to remain relevant, even if there go through a down period. Miami, OKC, Boston are generally always good. Hornets, pistons, kings (sans last couple years) have always been pretty bad

@coffeine1924 20 дней назад

Yeah but it still allows teams like Minnesota or Milwaukee to at least have an opportunity to develop good environments. Otherwise those small market franchises would have very little reason for any player to sign with them in the first place.

@phillipspanne2373 27 дней назад

The Seattle Sonics drafted Durant and Westbrook, not OKC. The owner then moved the team from Seattle which is about the 10th largest metro market in the US to Oklahoma City the 27th.

@coffeine1924 20 дней назад

I think with the amount of player movement in the league now days people speculate that the draft is less important because it's harder to retain players. But I think it manly just means organisations have to give players more reasons to stay with good coaching, good players and facilities. I think it's proven that players tend to be much more loyal than teams do, and theres lots of players that stay on bad teams that make bad decisions for too long.

@hotmechanic222 27 дней назад

@@louisf2654 In the UK and all of Europe there is no draft, each team has academies where they develop young players, usually from the age of about 7 years old or they buy a player from another team, and if your team are in the bottom 3 of your league at the end of the season they are relegated to the next lower league and 3 teams from that league take your place. so if your team is no good they can go from the Premier League one season to the 4th tier league in just a few seasons

it also should be illegal. Imagine being a young person - one of the best in your respective field - and told you have no choice but to go work in a city you would never live in otherwise. And you have no choice. Or recourse. There is a MUCH better way to do this that would be equally entertaining and retain the goal of equity for the teams, while also (finally) giving the players some agency in their own futures.

@kartierglory 27 дней назад

I mean... You can always pull a Charles Barkley or a Stephen Curry and let teams know you don't want to get drafted by them.... They have interviews and workouts by certain teams beforehand. It's very rare that someone is Entitled and Ungrateful to play for any team in the NBA though. At the end of the day... They DO have to sign the contract to actually be on the team 😂 so trust me, they chose to be there.
