Will you be disappointed if the Bucks take Parker or Wiggins

This is a simple poll that needs to be added. We have gone back and forth between Parker/Wiggins/Embiid/Exum, but as the title states, will you be disappointed if the Bucks take Parker or Wiggins @2

I'm disappointed in anyone other than Dougie McBuckets.

Option #3... Are you sick of all these polls/threads that essentially discuss the same topics?

I think he's trying to flush out the exact size of the remaining Exum/Embiid contingent, which would be interesting to know.

No. Before Embiid news broke, I would have been devastated with Parker but now I'm thanking my lucky stars to be where we are.

No, I will be thrilled and have a new second favorite player....that comment also extends to Exum and Embiid as well.

Guess which way I voted.

I think you should have separated the two and allowed users to vote for more than one option. I'll only be somewhat disappointed with Wiggins but I could talk myself into him because of his upside. I'd be crushed with Parker.

Ford was on the radio an hour ago and he was talking about the elite talent in this class.

"Is there a LeBron or Durant in this draft?" he was asked.

The name he brought up? Exum. He thinks Exum could get there.

Decidedly so for Jabari, and a bearable amount for Wiggins.

Yup, this.

Not a chance exum gets to a lebron or durant level simply because of his position. I guess if he was a sg you could hope he was a Kobe, but even if he became a Rose type player that is a far cry from durant and lebron.

I don't see how Wiggins upside isn't someone like Kobe. He'll never be on that LeBron or Durant level, but he I think he could (IF he hits his upside) be as good as Kobe.

...Chris Paul?

And Chris Paul isn't a lebron or durant type player either. Put lebron or durant on any team and they become a contender. There isn't another player in the nba currently that you can say that about. Not even a prime Chris Paul.

Not at all. It's the only logical thing to do at this point. I want Wiggins but will be happy with either him or Parker.

No but I would be bored.

Like PP stated...I made this poll just to weed out Exum/Embiid

I voted "yes" only because I really wanted Embiid - a healthy Embiid! If you switched the two quoted above, that's where I'm at.

You're entitled to your opinions etc, etc, etc. and they obviously aren't going to change but the fact that anyone could get themselves to the point where they would be "crushed" or "devastated" by picking Parker boggles my mind.

Absolutely not. Wiggins and Parker have been the only guys I've wanted all along. Wiggins is my top choice but Parker would be a great pick if he's the guy. Either one and I'm a happy guy next week.

Not to change the subject but Newz - you think prime Kobe is inferior to Durant? That's surprising to me. Prime Kobe is an all-time great.
