Following potential 2014 draftees

He also tore his ACL a couple years ago which further hurt his lateral speed. I think he could still be a Vasquez type player in the NBA, but wouldn't waste a pick on him would you?

I wouldn't if Inglis or Jokic was there. He returned strong from his injury so he is 3rd in my big board there.

It kinda sucks that Parker and Embiid are gonna skip the draft combine. At least do the measurements and interviews. But who knows.. it just might allow one of them to slide to Utah if they stick around at 4. :cool:

Doubt that, but it could make them a little more attainable through trade up. It all depends on how well Exum, Randle, Smart, Vonleh, and Gordon show though.

Parker and Embiid went a little down in my book and overall board with them skipping out on the combine.

Surprised Wiggins doesn't back out as well. I don't hold it against Parker and Embiid; they're just following the advice of their agents. They'll have private workouts for the teams holding the top four or five picks. It might make me a little more hesitant to draft Embiid. He'll only have a short individual workout to show his back is healed.
 
Anybody who needs the combine to see how good Parker and Embiid are, aren't paying very much attention.

I mean, this is like saying that we should have thought less of Andrew Luck because he chose not to throw at the NFL combine.

With Parker and Embiid, we have game tape…and quite honestly, that matters more than anything else. Knocking them down your board because they aren't going to a combine is idiotic.

Well to me Wiggins, Parker, and Embiid are all at the same level for me of drafting them. Wiggins now is a little higher to me. This isn't making me doubt how good they are, I just think it's distasteful.

I've completely cooled off on Embiid.... I'm just not a risk taker I guess. Plus we already have our future C in Favors and even Gobert in the waiting. How many "future" dominant centre can you have in a team?

your vacationing penis begs to differ..
 
Hantlers is right. Y'all are dumb.

Embiid and Parker arent skipping the combine because they are scared. They are doing it because they are getting good advice. They have nothing to gain by going there. This is about business, not entertaining you clowns.

People already think highly of them. Everyone around them is telling them that they are a lock for the top 3, and thats true too. So why go there? Their stock is already at its peak. Why in the world would they take a chance to make it go down, with no possibility of it moving up?

Parker, Embiid, and Wiggins are a lock for the top 3. Exactly where they go will have everything to do with the preference and need of the team drafting them. Parker isnt going to go show up Wiggins at the combine, so he has nothing to gain from that stand point either.

I said it before Hantlers did... does that change your opinion as to whether or not he's right?
 
@WojYahooNBA: Andrew Wiggins has informed the NBA that he has withdrawn from the draft combine in Chicago this week, league source tells Yahoo.

Parker is overweight and Embiid has a hurt back.

and Wiggins has no fire.
and Exum is an unknown... AND an Aussie.
Smart has no tangible NBA skill.
Gordon shoots 0% from the FT line.
Vonleh (see Wiggins)
Randle is a bully and an undersized PF that will bust.
Saric is a euro.. so, yeah...
McD is a stiff and defensive traffic cone.

Let's trade our pick for CJ MIles and Boozer.
