Episode notes
First-Round QBs Usually Elite
- Most franchise quarterbacks are first-round picks with elite talent and strong interviews.
- Poor interview performance and lack of agent hurt Shedeur Sanders' draft stock severely.
Knicks-Pistons Even, Celtics Ahead
- Knicks and Pistons have been surprisingly even despite Knicks trading five first-round picks for Mikal Bridges.
- Celtics got unexpectedly better with Jason Tatum and Peyton Pritchard becoming elite players, leaving Knicks behind.
Risky Luka Doncic Investment
- Luka Doncic is a lopsided player, great offense but weak defense and not in ideal shape.
- Paying Luka over $70 million yearly is risky given his physical decline and injuries.
