Top 13 Big Board Time Capsule 

Post#1 » by Krapinsky » Wed Jun 25, 2014 4:55 pm

Alright all you draftnik wannabes, time to go out on a limb and put down your top 13 big board. Next year we can bump this and see who was bold, who was right, and who should be banished from next year's NBA draft thread.

Krapinsky's Top 13:

1. Wiggins
2. Embiid
3. Parker
4. Smart
5. Exum
6. Randle
7. Vonleh
8. Gordon
9. Warren
10. Payton
11. Stauskas
12. Saric (would be 7 if he was coming over now)
13. Ennis

Honorable mention:

Harris, Hairston, Nurkic, Napier

I'll go on record saying Hairston will be one of the better talents in this draft that won't go top 13.

I agree with this. I also think that Robinson III will have a good career but he won't go top 13 either.

If we are judged after a year, we'll have a really different picture than what will be true in the end. Tyreke Evans and Brandon Jennings were #1 and #3 in the 2009 rookie of the year voting. I'll still project long term though.

1. Wiggins
2. Embiid
3. Parker
4. Exum
5. Gordon
6. Smart
7. Stauskas
8. Randle
9. Payton
10. Vonleh
11. Saric
12. Nurkic
13. Napier
14. McDermott

Embiid is the best talent, and I think (hope) that injuries won't get to him too much. Exum is hard to evaluate, because not enough people have seen him play (me included). I feel like he should either be much higher or much lower than where I've placed him. I think Vonleh will be a bust, but just in case I put him at #10 because of his potential. I have Stauskas unreasonably high in many people's eyes, but I think he'll be so good at offense that his D isn't as glaring.

Wild cards:

Inglis
Anderson
McGary
Capela

1. Wiggins
2. Emblid

9. Stauskas
10. Saric

13. McDermott

HM - Randle, Harris, Young, Inglis
Emblid drops cause of health and Nurkic and Saric drop a couple of spots cause of Euro contracts.

5. Embiid (if healthy) (CLE)
6. Gordon (BOS - MIN)

8. Smart (LAL)
9. Hairston (CHI)
10. LaVine (MIN)
11. McDermott (CHA)
