he could be for sure

but i am convinced embiid will be a star and will make his team a perennial contender.

also, just personally, i enjoy watching a dominant big than i do a star wing player.

Don't bigs generally have higher bust potential though? NBA is also trending towards a faster/smaller style of play these days. Wiggins definitely is far from a safe pick himself though, but I think he has the athleticism, skill and right personality to develop into a star. I'm far from a college ball expert though.

its trending that way because there are no dominant big men anymore. but i view embiid as one of them.

others of this era are duncan and shaq and i think they proved what a legit big can do for a team

According to Drake, Wiggins is headed to Cleveland to join Manziel.

anybody want in on a top 20 challenge?

me and a buddy agreed to prepare mocks for the top 20.

1 point for every player you guess correctly in the top 20 (regardless of team or order)

2 points for every player selected at the exact number you call


obviously trades could (frank) everyone over, but at least they would affect everyone equally.

Then the Bobcats decide to take Hornets. Memphis, LA L. and Utah should have thought about names changes when they relocated.
