Vote: Harden

I probably would have had him over Embiid, just because I have zero worries about how his game ages - agility/cunning/strength don't fade as quick as raw explosion. At 29 with his type of game he should have 4-5 more years at this level and then another 4-5 years of decent to good play after that. Embiid is a monster though, but just a significantly higher risk.

Nominate: Mitchell

Quite a few deserving candidates here, but I must be missing something on Fox. He still looks just way too up and down for me to say he is a next here. Mitchell looks to be more valuable, but I might even put Jaren Jackson Jr as more valuable than Fox in terms of rookie contracts. And I think you still gotta give some consideration to those good players with bigger or expiring contracts (Westbrook, Booker, Kawhi, Thompson, Draymond, Kemba, Gobert, George, etc) as they could still bring back some decent value.

Mitchell's numbers this year are worse than CJ McCollums... so there is definitely some 2nd year regression going on right now. I like Mitchell as a prospect, but he's not deserving this high.

Embiid over Harden?

Harden was #1 in Win Shares, #1 in BPM, #2 in VORP. Embiid is .. not close.

It's about a combination of factors... and I think there are a number of people who question building around Harden as a leader #1 type option. Age and contract also plays a factor here.

To be fair, he's been hurt for a significant portion of the season after having surgery in the offseason, and everyone else has regressed around him so there is simply no space. I wouldn't call that a second-year regression. I'd call it recovering, and having crap teammates on offense.
