I agree with BRule on Harrell, but i dont know about his size, only being 6-8.

But then again if Louisville makes another FF run, his stock could jump out of the building.

Certainly the injury is the big concern with Embid.

I like Wiggins over Parker. Hes more athletic and a much better defender.

Don't think you can go wrong either way....I'll just take the better offensive player, 9 outta 10 times if it's close. As for Emid, I just don't see why a team would risk taking him over 2 pretty sure things in Parker and Wiggins. I mean, I get it....but is Emid's upside really higher than Parker or Wiggins? I don't see it.

I think his upside is higher. When I watch Embid, I see Hakeem. But, you are right, if there is any thought that this might be chronic, you have to pass.

I probably need to watch him more but when I've seen him play he reminds me some-what of Bynum....which is still really good. Just hard to project someone so raw, especially against two guys who are pretty well polished
 
What happened to Randle this year? There was talk of him being a potential #1 pick and you never hear that anymore.

Ask Holden, he laughed at me when I called out Randle. He will still be a top 5-9 pick but he was/is way overrated....he doesn't belong in the top 3.
 
He's Z-Bo except with T-Rex arms. He'll probably still be a rather high pick, but very limited upside. Can't play defense or protect the rim bc of his lack of length. For him to make much of an impact, he's going to have to find a center like M. Gasol to play next to.

AD is more than just a good pro to be fair.

John Wall of course as well is a potential great player.
 
Melo has to work so damn hard for his points. Hopefully Jackson can put a team around him that puts Melo in easier positions to dominate.

Are the Pacers really that good? They just can't score at all and now Evan Turner is messing up their defense.

You were quiet when they lost to the Wizards when the Wizards were off an OT game and the starters played well over 40 mins.

Show up when the Nets beat a crappy Bobcats team. lol

What are you talking about? I commented after the game was over.

The Nets played well for the majority of that game. They just couldn't finish on the road when John Wall was hitting every three he took. The Nets thoroughly outplayed you for basically 40 minutes. I have faith they would beat the Wizards in 6 games in the playoffs.

That trip on a private jet from Orlando to Washington must be really hard to deal with for these athletes!
 
Yeah and Marcus Thronton went 5-6 from 3 point land.....

The Bobcats beat the Wizards; neither are good teams.....what is your point?
