I never saw it with Wiggins all season, then I got pumped about us possibly trading for the #1. Honestly now I'm back to thinking he's just a possible All Star, not a Superstar.

I'm that way with Wiggins and Parker. All-stars, but not Superstars. Embiid HAD the possibility of developing into a superstar; but he's just as likely to be Greg Oden. Just too risky.
For me, the #5 and Favors is worth trading up. Including Burks or next year's top-10 pick is too much. We undervalue Alec; he's one of the best 6th men in the league right now.

Dx's latest update has the Jazz passing on James Young to take P.J. Hairston at 23.
Im not sure if this has been posted but apparently Young was in a car accident weeks ago and wasn't able to workout because of it, some are saying its hurt his stock.

I'm not a big James Young guy, but at #23 I'm in. He showed some flashes. I really don't like Hairston.

I don't think anyone underwhelmed as hard as Young. Pass.

PJ can really shoot. (check it out)
He might not look that athletic in this vid but in games he shows it. For a 230 lb guard hes actually got plenty hops for the NBA.

A friend of mine swears by these guys and their methods. Anyone have any thoughts on this? He Pretty much takes it as gospel.

Saw someone say Gordon is rodman which i disagree with, but Khem is as close of rodman clone as I have ever seen. He will go higher tonight than projected.

MOAR Grades pls. I looked on the site and have no idea what all that graph and chart mumbo jumbo was about.

They have Aaron Gordon Graded a D and say hes "short, young, unproductive". Jabari Parker as a C, and Andrew Wiggins and Nik Stauskas are graded D.
The list of players Graded A is;
Julius Randle
Dario Saric
Jusuf Nurkic
Tyler Ennis
Gary Harris
Mitch McGary
Spencer Dinwiddie
Looked at their success rate from previous drafts. Wasn't impressed.
e.g. Labeling John Wall and Greg Monroe as busts.

I agree with this. Khem is one of the few post defenders still standing in this draft class...
Id take him over Patric Young whos projected a good bit higher
I've inserted the EWP rankings into the 2nd column, and (#'s) for easy comparison. Pretty much all the analytics love Embiid, Smart, Anderson, Vonleh, and Adams.

That gif actually makes him look horribly unathletic bro.
