EMONI BATES IS TRAPPED…



EMONI BATES IS TRAPPED…

So guys so guys so guys so guys so guys you yes I’m talking to you bro welcome back to another episode of juice made TV today we have something interesting to talk about now I feel like I cannot be the only one on this entire planet Earth

This Flat Earth bro I I just be wondering like why don’t NBA teams give certain g-league players a chance I’m pretty sure you watching this video you’ve seen headlines you seen sat stats you seen numbers like you see guys like M mclung winning nvps slam d competitions his stats are amazing

Averaging 25 points8 rebounds you see guys like share Cooper dominating the g- league leading the league and scoring dropping multiple 10 plus um assist games you have guys like the Kenny lson of the worlds the GG Jacksons um we know there’s certain type of players that we

All see that are doing well from the G league but I always just wonder like why don’t NBA teams just any teams even the worst teams in the league like why don’t they give some of these guys a chance and I’ve always just begged the question

Like what is even the point of the NBA G league if if you’re not even going to give a chance for any of these guys to even get reps in the league like how can you expect a player to develop if you’re putting him in the last 45 seconds of a

Game and sometimes he’s not even able to even touch the ball to me it just does not make any type of sense and as you can see from the title of this video um I’m just praying bro I am just praying to God I’m just praying to God that

Ammani Bates I’m just praying that ammani Bas does not fall into the Trap of the NBA gie and falls into the norm of one of these types of players that you see the big headlines you see the big 30 points 40 Point numbers and whatnot but you know these NBA teams

Just don’t give him a chance and I’m praying that the stigma and the the name just does not get attached to his brand at all I mean as you can see here ammani Bates is one of the absolute youngest players in the entire g-league and he’s

Actually one of the leading scores um in the league as well averaging around 25 points a game six rebounds on great efficiency 45% from the field 4 42% from three and if you actually dissect and watch this man atmani Bas in these types of games like these numbers are

Impressive don’t not let nobody fool you from what he was doing in high school college and whatnot what this man ammani base is doing in the NBA G league is very very impressive and the amount of shots and the attempts and the shot selection and the efficiency that this

Man is shooting at bro it makes all this way more impressive and I’m not one to jump the gun and I’m not saying that this man A Mighty B I’m not comparing him to Kobe Bryant or anything like that bro but if you watch the type of Threes

That this manmani Bas be taking bro the shot selection will make you question like how in the who is he making these shots but at the end of the day you can’t even be mad cuz he’s actually making them and he’s shooting very very well from the field so imagine if he was

In a better position he was getting set up by you know better teammates and whatnot at the NBA level I think these are things that can actually translate to the NBA level and that is the main reason why I’m just a little confused on why he hasn’t got the CAU up but

I just feel like you know a lot of people always going to have their opinions on ammani Bas and I know people are going to mention that ammani Bas will never get the opportunity to shoot these types of shots that he’s been shooting the g- league if he was

Actually you know in the real NBA and guys my rebuttal to that is like obviously bro obviously Amad bat is never going to get the opportunity in the league to shoot the types of shots that he’s shooting I’m not saying he won’t get the opportunity because I do

Think he can but in regards to the shot selections obviously I know he’s never going to be able to do that in the league but you guys got to understand bro it’s the G League I 100% guarantee you if you were to drop so many players

In the NBA to the G guys like Kyrie Andrew Wiggins Anthony Edwards like I it doesn’t matter the player they’re going to be shooting the same types of shots that this man atmani Bas is doing you got to understand it’s the G League nobody in their mama cares about team

Success they don’t care about which NBA team wins the NBA G league tournament or anything like that like you got to understand these players going to treat this like a playground and just taking advantage of the opportunity to showcase you know what they can do and at the end

Of the day the G league is really just every man for themselves just trying to prove that they have what it takes to be on that NBA level and they’re trying to prove to the front office the coaching staff you know fans out there and you

Know like I said all these players are just trying to make it out the trap to potentially get a call you know from an NBA organization and like I mentioned bro nobody cares about who wins the G like if I were to ask you watching this

Video who won the NBA G League uh showcase last year if you can explain the G Le to me what it does what’s the Showcase what’s the difference with the regular seasons the playoffs and what not like you can’t tell me none of that and that kind of proves my point that

None of that stuff even matters and players in the g- league they need to look at it in that manner I think ammani Bates is really showcasing that you know to the fullest and at the very end of the day in my opinion if ammani Bates

Wants um an opportunity to play in the league he’s really going to have to find a specific portion of the game that he just really excels at and I think right now that is shooting the ball like we know at the end of the day bro everybody

Can score we just seen like four guys drop 60 plus points just this past week this man LCA Johnson just scored like 73 points or something like that so everybody can score in the league but not everybody can shoot the ball not everybody can make a significant impact

On the defensive end not everybody you know can play a role in the league and I think that’s what ammani Bates really needs to focus on um if he wants an opportunity to play in the league and he really really has to excel at that and the thing is I think he’s really

Showcasing that in the G League like I think he’s already doing that that’s why I’m just questioning like why has he not gotten that opportunity and I think for Mony bat is really just going to just really probably just come down to luck being ready for the moment whenever a

Team gets him and potentially even getting traded because with this Cavs team they already have so many scores they have so many options and Shooters on their team they have the garlands the Donovan Mitchells the lever Shooters like Max strw Sam Maro so I don’t even

Know if the Cavs are really going to give him an opportunity or a chance in this rotation if you know mobble and Garland already went down and they stabed and CAU him up so I’m just praying that he can potentially get traded somewhere I think that’ll

Definitely be his best bet of getting an opportunity in the league I like teams like the Lakers the Hornets the Pelicans I think I mean just imagine if this man and Monty Bates were to go to a team like the Lakers in my opinion if Cam reddish can play significant minutes in

The league on the Lakers Why Can’t This Man ammani Bay do the same thing so and I also think that ammani bay can actually turn into a fan favorite and actually revive you know the the star power that he had before so it’s really just going to come down to that

Opportunity and also too I really just never understood the stigma about ammani bat’s not wanting to play a a role a lesser role on a team or he’s a guy that just always wants the ball we obviously know ammani Bates wants the ball every player in the league wants the boss it’s

Not just Amman Bates and and I never understood why people always said that ammani Bates never wanted to take a back seed or play a role or just be a shooter on the team I think ammani Bates he’s matured a lot he’s a different player

Right now than he was whenever he was 17 16 years old and people don’t understand bro this man in mte base is still 19 years old I think as I’m recording this video so he has a lot of room to grow like I mentioned he’s one of the

Youngest players in the entire g-league and he’s still one of the top leading scores um in there as well and and I feel like the Cleveland Cavaliers is really not maximizing on the potential that this kid has yes I know the Cavs are actually playing very good right now

They actually had the best record um in the entire league in the month of January so far they’ve only lost one game as I’m recording this video but if you want more pieces I mean like I said trade a trade ammani Bas to a you know a

Whole another team and you know let him get that shine let him get that opportunity because there’s no way a player of this magnitude should still be in the g- league like to me it just um does not make any sense and like I mentioned I’m just praying that he does

Not get that stigma that he’s just this g- league player that you know continues to just Showcase in the g-league and is not getting that call up so I don’t know what players in the G I don’t even know what the G league is is even for um at

This point if you know players aren going to get that opportunity but I don’t know what more this man Monty bat has to do but you watching this video this was a quick short video for you guys today let me know what you guys

Think about a man bait so far in the g- league do you think he will get that opportunity let me know down below and I’ll see you guys in the next one peace

  1. It’s his shot selection..he has to be able to take better shots cause he will never fit with players who make more money and are pegged to take those shots. I think he will eventually get his shot as an off the bench spark maybe even win 6th man of the year..it won’t be with Cavs..

  2. This year the Winchester Knicks won the showcase and last year the Grand Rapids vipers won the championship

  3. Love seeing Emoni play. High school he dominated against subpar talent. Memphis he struggled. East Michigan he dominated lesser talent.

    NBA historically pulls rebounder and 3&D guys out the G league. The big time scorers get a 10 day when the injury bug comes. Too many elite scorers in the league to pull one out of the G league who can’t play off ball and never has.

  4. Emoni is a beast! Coach Bickerstaff understands that he does not read the floor the way he should. Although he's an amazing talent, he needs to understand to read the defense he's playing. That's his biggest weaknes. Even in the summer league, he tends to let it go as soon as he touches the ball. If he learns to understand team chemistry,… Mitchell, Garland and Emoni would be a serious problem to the league.

  5. Emoni nice but him going to the NBA doing this ain't happening. It's like he trying to show he can be Kevin Durant in the G League but the job he fighting for in the NBA is more of a Andrew Wiggins role with less shots. A lot of defense, steals, and 12 points on 6 shots max. Haven't seen one highlight highlighting those things for him they just want to show him tryna do his best KD impersonation knowing damn well that will not be his role on a NBA roster. Not to mention the NBA isn't looking in the GLeague nor overseas to come to the Big League and avg 25😂😂 they go to the NBA Draft to look for the scorers/ stars

  6. I know it sounds crazy, but as a cleveland fan no one talks about what it COULD look like if we resigned mitchell.. if mitchell continues playing like this, it makes garland a valuable trade piece. Think about it, we resign mitchell, trade garland for 2-3 firsts, that gives emoni space at SG or SF to get more minutes and hopefully evolve into a paul George type player. We give mobley a contract and keep strus

  7. Emoni Bates is on my team, the Cavs. I think we could use his skills, but right now the Cavs roster is deep, and Mobley is coming back. Who would you
    he replace amongst Cavs top 10 players? Okoro? Levert? Can he play defense too?

  8. Hes not trapped. Stop it.
    He's not a professional.
    Great at basketball but hasnt learned how to be a professional yet.
    He just got suspended for running up in the stands

  9. Buddy you clearly do not know anything about the Cavs. They are a playoff team with their current rotation that has a plethora of vets. Emoni knows he needs to develop and is ok with his role as it is. He was a later 2nd round pick man lol. Can't just throw dudes into the fire. Come on man lol

  10. The Cavs got a diamond in the rough. All the other teams passed up on him. And the Cavs have plans for him. He's not an all around nba player just yet and that is what the G league is for. To get players like him ready for the big leagues.

  11. I don’t see why teams don’t want a 6’9 6’10 sniper he got. A quick release his game got better he he gone be more of a mpj he 6’10 I think the kd style of play just g league and high school on back he got potential fasho he tuff

  12. G League is a training ground. Cavs want Emoni to be Emoni but he needs LOTS of reps playing team-ball. Emoni YOUNG, bro. Young man needs to prove himself as mature and composed. Cavs played him a couple games early in the season off-the-bench and while he shot well, and at times played team-ball well, he got frustrated, missed defensive assignments, failed to execute on the offensive end so Bickerstaff pulled him out of the game. You are right though, Cavs are stacked right now and winning without two of their starters, no need to call Emoni up. Albeit If he was on the Spurs or Pistons he’d be getting some reps but right now G-League is the perfect fit for Emoni. One last things, Cavs aren’t trading Emoni for a song and dance. I really believe the Cavs have trust in Emoni to take it to the next level. Look for Emoni to be in Cleveland a while.

  13. At 19 emoni needs shots and minutes . Not playing every 5-6 days and getting 3-5 minutes in garbage time. He’s going through a great development program. And we know it’s successful because our entire bench is our G-league team

  14. Iso scoring is NOT how to make the NBA. If you aren’t the superstar of the team and a star in the League you BETTER do more than just dribble and chuck it. Basketball IQ and making open shots is how you make the League and stick. Athleticism, iso scoring, dominating the ball, etc won’t do it.

  15. It would be weird for the Cavs to draft a player at a young age. And then try and develop them just to trade him. You develop young players so they can contribute at higher levels later. I think he’s on the best path
