00:00 This NBA rookie class has been highly entertaining. Victor Wim Benyama is again the favorite to win
00:06 Rookie of the year, but is Derek Lively the Dallas Mavericks rookie? Is he the most underrated rookie?
00:13 Yes, and let's talk about Wim Benyama real quick. Can you be rookie of the year if your team loses 20 games in a row?
00:20 I mean, of course you can he's amazing. He's
00:25 Not exceeded expectations, but he does everything we thought he could do except Greg Popovich all of a sudden is not the genius
00:31 We thought because Spurs can't win a game, but yes, I had low expectations for Derek Lively. We talked about that
00:37 He averaged five and five at Duke. That's not a guy you're like plug and play in the NBA
00:43 It's a guy you're like he's 19 years old. He'll need two or three years to develop. Maybe he'll be a double-double guy
00:49 He's there
00:52 And and he's leading the NBA in field goal percentage and you go, okay, he just dunks all the time
00:57 Which is still amazing, but he's had games recently of 20 point 16 rebounds seven blocks
01:02 Which what yeah, and then a game of 16 point 16 rebounds. This is for a guy we thought would need time to develop
01:08 He's like, excuse me. I'm gonna cut to the front line. I'm here now
01:11 He's he's a slam-dunk win for the Mavericks who a lot of people thought they should trade that pick
01:16 He's the best center of the Luka era already a slam dunk pick
