Embiid officially declares for the draft

[Beantown]

I'm not a huge fan of him but seeing that our defense sucks I would take him after Parker and Wiggins. The only issue is his health issues. Him and Favors would be a pretty intimidating front court....with Kanter and Gobert coming off the bench....thats just nasty.

Its unlikely but plausible. That could be one of the most dominating front lines.

Embiid is dope, but he is a project. Offensively, the starting frontcourt of Embiid and Favors would struggle to score for at least a couple years.

Excellent, looks like Jabari will be the last to come to his senses.

Everybody that declares is good for us. Embiid is a pretty big project literally and in the traditional sense. I'm not convinced that he'll ever become a great offensive scorer like Hakeem but the defensive talents are there.

I don't think he would be very effective paired with Favors in terms of getting us points in the paint.

This is great news! The more the merrier. Now we need to have Randle and Parker declare.

I think people forget that he has some sweet passing skills too.

Playoffs in the deep west..lmao...doubt it. Not with a guy who struggles to score and needs to gain some weight first against the big boy centers in the west. Emblied will be on some peoples poster next year. Just to darn skinny right now. Jazz wilol hit a homerun with that second first round pick and will get a quality player with 2nd round pick

When his contract comes up, Kanter isn't going to sign with the Jazz to be a backup. In his mind, I'm sure he sees himself as a starter. I see him as one also. If we were to draft Embiid, that's a sure sign FO has decided Kanter isn't in future plans.

Im willing to take that risk
