What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

Favors is to small for that. Embiid and Gobert on the other hand...

Embiid and Gobert would be:
Mount Cameroon & Eiffel Tower

Are you goys serious? A dude that giant, he must have to consume so much food everyday, he's probably eating every chance he can cuz he's probably so hungry. Come on goys use your brains. This guy is probably hungry and rummaging through the fridge right now cuz he's so hungry. Seriously...
 
If Sim were to make it he'd be the first Indian/Sikh to really establish themselves... maybe the Kings owner gives him a chance

His weight is really the issue though, hes well over 300lbs which means there's basically no success rate.
 
Walter Samuel Tavares Da Veiga is the only draftable giant prospect this year. Sim, Walter and Rudy are all about the same age and have 7'9" wingspans

Tavares is starting in the ACB, which is considered the best league outside of the NBA. his stats are

20.8mpg 6.0ppg 6.8rebs 1.7blks .5stls 58.8% FG's 74.4% FT's

He can run and shows nice agility and jumping ability for a guy 7'3", hes far from a stiff

plus you could keep him in Spain where he appears to be developing nicely, he picked up a basketball for the first time 4½ years ago

the first minute of this video shows his ability to run the floor. hes not as fast as Rudy but he looks fast enough
 
For me, it's top 3 or bust. DL needs to do what he needs to do to land our franchise player.

We have a solid young nucleus, but in my eyes, no player on this roster is untouchable.
 
1. Wiggins
2. Parker
3. Embiid
4. Exum
5. Gordon

Sixth or lower:

Draft Exum and Burke or Burks has to be traded immediately. Exum is a prima donna; he fancies himself a star and won't accept coming off the bench. I hope the Jazz don't draft him. You'd jump out the window if the pick were Randle?

My post was very clear.

And no player is valuable enough to allow Lindsey to move up. The top-3 picks are untouchable as each COULD be franchise players. You don't trade away a franchise player for a lesser pick and a player who is merely a complementary piece. Whichever teams land in the 1-3 slots would be CRAZY to trade away Embiid, Parker or Wiggins.

Lebron or Durant.
