Marshall Henderson is up-there on the "athlete most likely to change his name to something weird and get away with it power-rankings" I feel like he should change his legal name to cocaine cowboy.

there was a GM survey after the NCAA season where like 57% of them said they would take Parker first. I dont have the link offhand but its mildly disturbing that these people are allowed to run NBA franchises. I dont think there's a huge difference in the level they're currently at (Parker is a better scorer, Wiggins are far superior defender), but Wiggins potential is just off the charts comparatively. The only place Jabari #1 makes sense for me is Utah, for *mormon reasons*

I think it's unfair to call anyone a bust until they're the age of the seniors coming out of college. MKG still has 2 years of development until he's 22.

Where do you guys see that he can't shoot? Shooting isn't a plus for him, but he's not horrific like MCW

from everything that I've seen Parker is athletic on court, not Wiggins athletic, but a nice physical prospect.

what on Earth are you talking about? it's reasonable for the top 5 teams to think that they'll get a top 5 nba player? that's not reasonable.

The B_36 posted:Sorry, I didn't explain this well. I meant that each of the teams picking in the top 5 should have a reasonable expectation that there guy will be a top 5 player at some point. Thats reasonabe for most drafts. If the 5th guy picked in a draft doesnt at least have a reasonable expectation of being really good, then either you suck at drafting or its a shallow draft. All of those guys are going to be very talented and have a high upside (including Embiid). They obviously won't all pan out. One of them will be a bust and never be more than a serviceable rotation player, 2 of them will be all stars at some point, and the other 2 will be ok/good but not great. We just don't know which of them they'll be yet. and even within the parameters of your loving idiotic argument you suggest that there is that a 2/5 chance of a player being an all-star (a top 24 player), yet that teams should have a reasonable expectation that they're getting a top 5 player.

Hand Knit posted:The media here is making noise about the Raptors and Ennis. It seems pretty safe to assume that he'll be gone by the time the Raptors pick, so I guess my question is about how much would it take to trade up however many spots (5-7?) to get him?

hard to take much away from that 'frid vid other than the fact that the other guys on ULL are so loving bad. it seems like every play was a 1 on 3 iso with no off ball movement

This is obvious, but whoever grabs Wiggins (and I'm hearing the Bucks will take Parker if Embiid is not available) is going to be getting great value at their draft slot.

I wouldn't draft Embiid in the Top-10 still. Recovering from Sports injuries fucks up the other systems in your body too, from either over or under use. I have no doubt that he'll be working as hard as possible to recover, but for someone as raw as him I could see it taking a year and a half or so just for him to get back to the level he is now. You're making a huge gamble on him being an immediate difference maker when he finally plays if you take him.
