Following potential 2014 draftees

[Dr. Jones]

What's Walkers floor?

Jail.

 

[Dr. Jones]

So Embiid is a poor man's Rudy Gobert?

lol.. truthfully, Walker is a total badass... but one of the biggest dumbasses ever.

 

[Dr. Jones]

my top 10

wiggins
randle
exum
Parker
Gordon
Harrison
smart
saric
embiid
wcs

Very good list.

I'm on the record saying all of you guys have Saric too high, so I'll leave it at that.
I also like Parker more than Exum... but that's splitting hairs.

like women nba gms like their players big and if exum can show that he is a 6-6 pg he will go way high. I am even tempted to put Harrison over Parker. nba gms like a lot of potential. Parker has the least upside of anyone in the top 6.

Disagree on Parker. If you're looking at size and athleticism, then your statements are warranted.. but you would also be ignoring the fact that the kid has no real holes in his game and his bbIQ is off the charts.

I agree but I am talking upside. don't get me wrong as far as the jazz brass I draft him second to only wiggins.

I'm talking about upside too.

Take Chris Walker and Jabari Parker for example. If you were at the combine you'd take Walker over Parker. But watch them play and it all changes. Just saying Parker is a transcendental player as it relates to his feel for the game, overall skill, and size.

Upside is what gets GM's fired. For every player taken high because of his "upside," you have an equal number of busts that never reach their "potential." At this point, I'd probably say Exum is the riskiest pick in the top group (I'm not counting Walker). The others will sort themselves out as they get a full year of college experience.

Love Exum. ... and agree.

 

[Park Bites]

it is probably just wishful thinking on my part that Parker drops.

Haha.. maybe. Also, your points are valid. You could easily end up being more right. We're all just sharing opinions, obvi.

Hack and nickkk can't stop arguing in the fantasy draft, and now we're actually talking about prospects in here? That's two threads ruined today.
