What's new

Rusillo, three scouts, and Embiid, Parker, Wiggins and Randle

scout 2 is an idiot. embiid is not a true 7fter. hakeem was 6ft 10. so real difference between young hakeem and embiid is probably an inch at best.

anyway, health is a legitimate concern. just look at the 7fters around the league - bynum, oden, lopez, and bogut. it's a huge gamble.

wiggins - his lack of aggression is a huge concern. you want your #1 pick to be a ferocious tiger not a teddy bear. temperament is important in this league.

Don't know about Hakeem but:

Embiid is 7'1".
 
with 6ft 8 barefoot vonleh. not a good angle.

bottom line - embiid is an impressive specifimen. 6ft 11 ish, 7ft 5+ wingspan, and only getting better. only concern is his health.

He's already been measured bra.
 
We need to know Withey's HWH (height without hat).

I work with a guy that is an Oklahoma State alum and he thinks Smart has not outside shot and no real shooting form either. If Horny were still here he could work with him but he might make Trey look like a pure shooter.

no combine
no barefoot

meh. go look at the jabari parker's measurement posted in draftexpress. measurement can change.

my estimate(barefoot)

embiid - 6ft 11 to 6ft 11 1/4
wiggins - 6ft 7 to 6ft 7 1/2
parker - 6ft 7 to 6ft 7 1/2
 
We need to know Withey's HWH (height without hat).

it can't be more than 1/4 inch just by looking at withey's head shape. and when i compare images, i also look at the shoulder level. this picture is pretty damn picture and no matter how you look at is embiid is closer to 6ft 11 than 7ft from this picture.

my conclusion - embiid is not a true 7fter.
 
Did you guys see wiggins at the lottery? Looked like a house cat rather than a tiger.

His demeanor kinda reminds me of tim duncan tbh.

too bad he cant be more like ron artest or dennia rodman doe

Duncan comes across as aloof while wiggins come off as "I am ****ing scared" IMO. Still love him as a prospect, but wonder if he will ever reach more than half of his potential.

Ya, im a bit worried about his passiveness as well

Wiggins is overrated enough to drop to the Jazz at #5.

1. Parker
2. Embiid
3. Smart
4. Gordon
5. Wiggins
6. Vonleh
7. Some radon Euro
8. Julius Millsap
9. Stauskas
10. Saric

This is the order it should go.
