I voted for Jabari.

It took a while, Jabari scares me.

On the other hand, Randle will make me not sleep for months.

So, lets just be top 4.

I'm really torn between Parker & Exum. I went Parker... but it would not surprise me at all if Exum wows in the workouts and we take him instead.

I think I'd go Exum although tough. Exums shot isn't broken, just needs to be tweaked to make it consistent. I think he ends up a 2 in the NBA. He's a scorer whose willing to pass. Would fit just fine next to MCW. Jabaris defense and athleticism issues scare me, even though I do like his offensive game.

Some may also forget the awesome connection we have regarding Dante Exum. While everyone has seen Jabari play, very few have seen Exum play. But one guy who I guarantee knows ALL about Exum is our very own Brett Brown. He likely has more info on the kid than just about anybody in the NBA. Brown was in Australia for a long time, still coaches the national team(could be Exums coach next olympics), and I'm sure has every connection possible in getting significant info on this kid. Exum comes from the Australian Institute of Sport which is the very same place Brett Brown referred to in his opening press conference, about where his fitness program originates from.

So on draft night, if we do end up with Exum, I will be extremely excited because I'll already know Brett Brown believes he can be the star we are looking for to take him this high, and that he's given the thumbs up to Hinkie regarding this kid.

When I voted it was 13-13. I guess all the Jabari fans didn't get home from school yet. (I'm joking)

Why does Randle look like a grown man in his mid 20s? How long is his standing reach?

I don't know how to vote. I'm on an ipad, is that the problem? It only shows up on a PC?

I'd vote for Parker though if I could.

A 6'6" Derrick Rose who still has plenty of time to grow and develop his outside shot. :D

If MCW and Exum are as good as hoped, yet incompatible down the road, that is a helluva trade chip to have.
