'14 Draft Thread - Parker Declares. List your top 4

Willie Colon · Post #81 » by **Willie Colon** » Thu Apr 17, 2014 6:07 pm

1) Parker - Great offensive potential; the best fit for our team, IMO. Can provide what we desperately need.
2) Embiid - Would be # 1 if not for the back issues. Also, he's a very slow player and that scares me. Wouldn't be too upset if we missed out on him because we already have a great defensive center.
3) Wiggins - Great athlete with great defensive potential.

4) Exum - Largely unimpressed with this guy.

1. Embiid

2. Exum

Ask me again tomorrow and 2-4 will probably be different.

1. Wiggins - If he develops his Killer Instinct he's got the chance to be a top 3-5 player in the NBA, he's got it all but that look that "I don't give an F, I'm gonna crush you" attitude that Bryant, Durant, Jordan all have/had
2. Parker - Love his disposition, attitude, great face for the franchise - needs to get in shape - I view him as a top 15 NBA guy in his prime
3. Embiid - Hate the back issues but can't deny the talent. That being said I don't want him... too much risk in my mind. Easy to see comparisons to Olajuwon, not sure he makes it there though.
4. Randle - Double Double Machine in the NBA where the floor is spaced better. Will probably struggle to adjust year one, but after that look out. Poor Man's Karl Malone in my book.

Exum is too big of an unknown for my blood. But after seeing Giannis' film before draft last year I said the same thing... so I'm open to it... I don't have enough data on him to give a solid opinion...

1. Parker
2. Embiid (#1 if back is 100% cleared and doctors don't think it'll be an ongoing issue) (my vote in the poll)
3. Exum

wide margin

4. Wiggins

That said, I will be ecstatic to hear any of these 4 names called during our pick

i wouldnt be mad with any of the first 3
im afraid of Embiid, getting a major injury.
he all ready had back issues, and centers just dont play full seasons

I am now on board with Embiid #1.

How can you pass on a 7ft center with NBA Comparisons too Tim Duncan/Akeem Olajuwon

If Embiid busted I wouldn't even care. Would be so amazing to watch a great big man play. They are so rare in the NBA these days. This is a chance you have to take.

I am still happy with Wiggins and Parker.

#1 Embiid
#2 Wiggins
#3 Parker
#4 Smart

You wouldn't care if our #1 pick busted? What??

i don't feel comfortable ranking my top 4 until i see how little cleo publishes their tiers. i don't see how any of you can rank your top 4 either without that essential knowledge.

He is saying the reward is so great that if Embiid is a bust it will have been worth it.

I feel that way about Embiid and Wiggins. I also feel Parker is the safest pick to be a good player, but one those two will be the higher risk/reward picks.

A better way of putting it would be I would have no regrets. I wouldn't fault our GM for drafting Embiid if he didn't work out. I think if Embiid doesn't work out it will be because of injury's.

1. Parker - safest pick imo mix of PP and GH?
2. Wiggins - huge boom potential with little bust
3. Exum - MCW-ish, think this kid will be a gamer
4. Embiid - durability scares the **** out of me...

I also feel Parker is the safest pick and he will be very good player.
