“This was wroten by” 😂😂😂 cmon Matt

[@Sros1]

im so dumb

[@caseyryan1]

Tony Wroten?

[@yahhikillu]

I swear comparisons are just if they’re white or black and then short or tall

[@garrettv219]

Jordan Bell and Kenneth Faried are pretty similar in that they’re both out of the league atm

[@im_waffles2920]

Boston Baller Jordan Bell is on the T-Wolves if I’m not mistaken.

[@garrettv219]

waffleman hes stuck in the g league which is what I meant by out of the league

[@im_waffles2920]

Boston Baller oh didn’t know that. Thought he was still on the team.

[@tc-up2yw]

Jordan bell is on the grizzles

[@garrettv219]

Pie Is The First 3 Letter Of My Name hes in the g league which is what I meant by out of the league

[@ks5th]

Markelle Fultz actually is closer to Westbrook than Harden, he is a good slasher and playmaker simular to Russel, but is less on Defense than Westbrook but has the same inconsistent jumper.

[@im_waffles2920]

Kai Smith in college Fultz’s jumper was nice though.

[@Taylor-op2xb]

At the time of the comparison he was a good perimeter shooter

[@nikolaspasic9309]

Russ is not good playmaker

[@ks5th]

waffleman yeah but now he’s really like westbrook

[@ks5th]

waffleman he’s also more athletic than harden

[@itsgl00my88]

I think Kel and James is a fair comparison. Kel was supposed to be a crafty, ball handling, scoring machine before his jumpshot disappeared.

[@watermale8362]

Yep, and young James harden would always finish at the rim and that’s what kelle does

[@itsgl00my88]

@Matthew Bratcher He wasn't "Known" for it, but it was one of the things people were excited about in his scouting report because of how fluid he was and h9w he could knock down off the dribble 3s with ease. His percentage may say otherwise but remember how bad that team was. His shot difficulty was higher and he shot a higher volume than normal prospects.

[@kingcacturne4146]

I think the Bam comparison was good, just because of the size. KAT and Porzingus are 7 footers

[@dylandylan8380]

love this concept

[@hezilife3141]

“OG is already better than Jerami Grant” oh man oh man oh MAN this kinda backfired

[@user-et4jj1hx9j]

Amazing video!! Loved it!! Do it again with another draft class!!

[@fella1223]

sros somewhat disrespects motiejunas, dude was a solid stretch 4 before injuries ruined him

[@libbyd3675]

Great video 👍

[@TImo12031998]

It's about the Playstyle, not about how well the rookies from 2017 turned out to be. For example, if I had to choose an NBA player, I would compare myself to the play style of Kemba Walker.
Even though Kemba Walked is a thousand times better than me at basketball this comparison still sits because I am also a smaller guy who likes to dribble, shoot and facilitate.
Otherwise, nice video 👍

[@markellefultz20]

Markelle is james harden

[@ks5th]

MarkelleFan he’s more westbrook and this is from a magic fan

[@shanghaicj821]

Kai Smith I’m a Washington state basketball fan and he’s definitely a mix of both of them

[@markellefultz20]

No he is his own breed

[@giannis5868]

no markelle is a bust

[@ishootgreens1248]

I would compare him to a John wall sophomore year

[@_rqin9091]

Hartenstein has much potential i would not say hes bad at Basketball he needs a better fit than the Rockets

[@TK-yk6xe]

Ye

[@rome8180]

The Fultz-Harden comparison was pretty common before the draft.

[@thechameleon2636]

I still think that Harden was the best comparison at that time, without that freak Injury, I could definitely see him as Harden esque

[@tigerwoods4034]

I mess with these videos!

[@flip-antonio8425]

Now that the bulls are changing the front office and the coach. I promise u he will go off. With a new coach.

[@mikeb4097]

For bam I said drumand

[@jacktimm9162]

Is it bad that I watch Matt's second channel but not his rebuilds?

[@nikkiwaxman]

Jack Timm nope, I do the same

[@chcknwngs]

Same

[@justmemes9403]

Same

[@giannis5868]

Markelle isn't james harden, I see him more as an anthont Bennett and kwame brown

[@charlieohlson5124]

Harden made sense at the time, just not anymore at all because of his skill set change

[@rome8180]

OG is not a better shooter than Grant. I think you should look up their shooting percentages.

[@assafcohen7772]

Why do you hate t.j. leaf so much??

[@mannygracioppo7868]

cuz he sucks

[@assafcohen7772]

@@mannygracioppo7868 not that much

[@itsgl00my88]

@@mannygracioppo7868 he's actually gotten a lot better

[@NateThomas01]

Justin Patton has been hurt his whole career

[@luke7277]

So I guess kristaps is a pretty good comparison after all.

[@NateThomas01]

Luk3 McC As a Creighton fan, I would say it’s not a great comp for him. I think he was more of a KAT type player, not as good defensively besides blocks.

[@luke7277]

@@NateThomas01 I get what you were saying, I was joking saying I was a good comparison cause kristaps has been injury prone in his career.

[@fatalitycs601]

Lonzo Ball wont ever be as good as Ginoboli? I would have to disagree for sure i think Lonzo will be much better actually.

[@joshuabryant438]

Fatality CS ginoboli was a third option on a team that won multiple championships, I don’t think Lonzo will be that good

[@guybilli5288]
