Or a 6'5" Kemba Walker. Mudiay is a good player, but you're vastly overstating his upside, IMO.
Wouldn't be ideal, but also wouldn't be that bad if he ended up as a 6'5 Kemba Walker.

lol.
Ideally lets try not to get too many Knicks fans voting for him, as it would be great to see how much if any traction he has locally.

6'5 Kemba also ain't bad for me. Would be such a total match-up nightmare.
I'm guessing Mudiay is more like bigger Bledsoe. Breaking down the defense to score and facilitate, in time improved his shooting then a very good defensive player. Also shows good potential to get rebs+stls+blks numbers because of his strength, length and athleticism.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Voted "Other" (Okafor)
I think Lakers will pick Russell.

Re: Poll: Who do you want with #3? (VOTE AGAIN)
Porzingis ain't so bad.
He looks weak. But we've seen guys getting stronger as they age. Plus, these guys do weird stuffs to get into better physique.
Offensively, he'd be lethal in the PnR game. He can slash to the basket or simply shoot like a guard. Defensively, he's got the length to defend bigs and quickness to defend small line-ups. He reminds me of celtic's KG minus the intensity on defense.
Why I don't see him getting selected by us is that he's not a good rebounder (rebs+blks+stls). And Hinkie hs a high probability of getting good rebounders from kazemi, Trob to our premier bigs.

I voted for the 19 year guy who is modeling his game after Steph Curry. And you can already see the similarities.
Dangelo Russell.
Dangelo Russell.

I'm expecting that we're going to draft Russell, as a result I'm going to get so excited, and then we're going to trade him for Porzingis.

I voted Mudiay. When the third pick is Russell, I'm not assuming anything as well.

Come on into reality dudes. We are taking, and keeping, D'Angelo Russell. All your dreams of taking Mudiay and Porzingus are about to turn into nightmares!

It's DeAngelo Russell or Mudiay for me, unless Okafor happens to be there.

That means "other" then, right?

I guess, I mean i'll be fine with whatever they decide to do. This team isn't going anywhere until someone steps up and becomes a superstar for them, so whoever in this draft has the best chance to do so....I want. They know way more than I do about talent, so in Hinkie I trust.... FWIW I do think it'll be DeAngelo Russell wearing a Sixer jersey by the end of draft night.

You're way too overconfident, 76ers will take BPA and its dec chance that it isn't Russell. Could be Porz, Muiday, Hez, Okafor
