Biggest Winners & Losers After Round 2 | 2024 NBA Draft Reaction

my two biggest winners okay Minnesota staying consistent love what the t-wolves did certainly in the first round Dillingham Shannon are going to make contributions immediately I have to think of the Knicks in the in the full entirety here because of getting Bridges but I I I just think that the colic pickup in the second round is going to be a player that people going to love in New York and I think he’s gonna have an impact um so I’m really high on them and the you know you know individually I like what the Spurs did you know with Castle but they’re sort of the bigger winners to me in general um the loser and this is not you know basically painting the players is that it’s more I don’t understand what they were doing because I don’t think they help themselves immediately and they need some help is Milwaukee it’s not with I’m confused by the Bucks I’m with you there that would be I’ll say Charlotte because I just I don’t think tjan Salon is a number six pick in this draft and to pass on to pass on kingan right there yeah uh winners listen I had Ron Holland is you know I I I don’t want to even bring it up anymore because it’s getting annoying I’m sure but I I’m a big Holland guy so to get him at five I think Utah did really well um Cody Williams is fine but I think that better value was Isaiah klier and then get Kyle filipowski at 32 I thought that was a big winner um and then today I’m going to just I’m going to pick back off you with the Knicks because I like dadd a I love I love the the finagling and moving around to get a guy that I thought that they were going to get at 24-25 and Tyler KCK at 34 and somebody who’s just so perfect for them and exactly what they need so I think that’s a win and let’s be nice here let’s give a win to bronnie man he got himself picked the Lakers not even the Lakers to Brony yes I mean to come back from what he came back for came back from and then get to go to the Lakers with his dad that’s a very that’s just such a cool story so regardless of what happens with his career he gets he Rich Paul said the other day he said when I asked bronnie what he wants he goes I just want to hear my name called well he heard his name called and he heard his name called by one of the most prestigious organizations in the world who’s led by his father it’s just a it’s just a cool story regardless of what you think of him as a prospect so behind we may never see this again because uh LeBron has surpassed uh the normal you know career career lifespan I mean pushing 40 and he’s still at a high level that just doesn’t happen

  1. Mean while, Mac McClung is still stuck in the G League. I'm gonna stop watching NBA until LePED retires from the league entirely.

  2. I like what GSW did.
    – Lindy waters seems like JTA with a jump shot
    – surface level post seems solid, but I’ll need to find out more. Not sure how his skill set drops to 52?

  3. I think the Lakers were one of the biggest winners. Knecht is the PERFECT fit with LeBron and AD and he fell right into their laps at #17 when he could have been a top ten pick. And from a financial standpoint, drafting Bronny was more than just about keeping LeBron happy – they're going to get a TON of media coverage all season long, be on national TV even more, sell more tickets and jerseys, even though they'll barely make the playoffs. Like it or not, that's a win!

  4. The loser to me is Atlanta. They lucked out with the number one pick, but drafted a guy who likely would have gone 5-10 in almost any other draft. He was also their only pick, so they're betting everything on his development, because they owe all of their future first round picks to the Spurs up until 2028 from the Murray trade. Their only hope for the 2020's is that Risacher becomes a star!
