Honestly love Embiid, and right now I have 1. Wiggins 2. Embiid 3. Randle 4. Parker. I'm not sure Parker has that much upside. Where-as I see Wiggins being a better pro then college player, I see Parker as a better college player then as a pro player. I'm not sure he has the athletic ability to affectively guard 3's or 4's. I'm afraid his tools on both end of the court are limited somewhat at the NBA level. In my mind Randle looks like he'd fit in great with Favors. Favors being the offensive stopper and low post threat on offense. The strides he's made in his post offense gives me confidence he'll be an Allstar, and Randle can be on the perimeter, doing a little of everything. Embiid and Wiggins are just on another plain as far as potential goes, you just can't pass on that. Both have potential to be all time greats if they put it all together

I agree with this.

Very solid. However, I'd still take Parker 3rd.
 
Marcus Smart in his last three: 22 pts, 11 rebs, 5 assists and 3 steals. I'm still not convinced about him, but sometimes he looks like the best college player in the country. Problem is, that doesn't always translate to the NBA. On the other hand, sometimes when I watch him, he looks like one of those guys whose game is even better suited for the NBA. :confused:

I think you're about inline with everyone else here. Nobody is really taking a strong stance one way or the other on him. I'm one of his biggest haters, but even I'm not entirely sure how he'll work out, what position he'll play, etc. He seems to have some qualities of a 1 and 2 guard, but not enough to really make him a star at either position. He's kind of in no-man's land. But he can guard either position, and has plenty of time to work on his handles and shot, so he's got some solid potential.
