At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Parkers first game at Duke

Pretty hot night

Wiggins was okay too 16 pts 6 rebounds but lots of free throws. Dude seems to lack the killer instinct of guys like Pierce and Melo. More of a laid back Lebron who's had too much exposure and pressure. Might take Wiggins a few years to get the spark like Lebron did.

Loved his elbow, pull up jumper (very Pierce-esque).  The fade away in the lane way a thing of beauty.  Dude has a good stroke too, very smooth player.

Parker is a guy you can tell will get every ounce of talent out of his body.

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
Parker looks like a hall of famer. Over the top? Crazy? Unnecessary hyperbole? Probably to all those.

But watching the kid play, he's a leader, he can pass, he can score, he can rebound, he can defend, he plays very, very hard, and he's a natural leader. He's got the handles and instincts to bring the ball up the floor if he has to. He can penetrate from teh perimeter, he can face up he can go back to basket..I mean. That's the guy I wanna see in Celtics green for the next 15 years.

I'd still pick Wiggins over Parker, but right now I'd take Embiid over both.

Parker is fantastic, but he's doing all that against college competition. If a raw Wiggins can shut him down, imagine what grown men can do to him.

Wiggins shows a real NBA skill, defense, and lots of potential at everything else. The kid doesn't lack confidence, he took the decision to guard Parker in his second NCAA game, against what Coach Self told him to do. He was benched because of foul trouble in the first half, then he took over the game. That's a winner in my book.

Both Parker and Wiggins will be great players, but if Parker is that good, then Wiggins is already an elite defender.

Embiid, on the other hand, seems like a generational talent at the center position. He could be a bust, and the other kids might be better in the end, but if you have the chance to pick Embiid, you have to do it.

And I still think we won't get a chance to pick in the top 3.

I think Parker is more NBA-ready than Wiggins but does not have as high a ceiling... I take Jabari though as pick #2 to Embiid!
