Embiid, Wiggins, Parker....

But if the C's get the number 1 pick, I bet he picks Parker....

I see a lot of Pierce in Parker. Embiid is just so freakishly talented that people are all comparing him to Hakeem. Hard to say no to that. Wiggins - I think I'm just following the hype, but this kid is also freakishly athletic. Smart is a competitor. Love his motor, loved him even more after that shove. This guy WANTS to win and plays very very hard!

1.)Jabari Parker
2.)Julius Randle
3.)Andrew Wiggins.

Someone pls correct me if I am wrong, but from what I've heard, Parker and Randle seem like they are the most NBA ready, so that's who I'd draft.

Wiggins is on my list more so because I keep hearing so much about him and am more fascinated at this point.

I am shocked why so many have Randle in the top 5, not to mention the top 2-3.  I just don't see it in this guy.  I think he will really struggle in the NBA.  Strikes me as a guy who matured early in life, and the others eventually just take off while he stays the same.  Kind of like the kid who hits puberty in little league but stops growing.

Then this next groups flip flops around for me:

5. Randle
6. Gordon
7. Vonleh
8. Smart

4. Trade the pick if you can package it with other assets to get a current all star scorer.

this is the sort of thread that would be way nicer were it to have a poll as part of it.  ;D

I think what's interesting is that all the other low-ranked teams (other than the Lakers) are pretty set with good young centers (Bucks: Larry Sanders, Jazz: Kanter, Philly: Noel, Orlando: Vucevic, Sac: DMC).  That doesn't mean Embiid will automatically fall to the C's, but would any of those guys be happy if their team drafted Embiid as the center of the future?

It will be fascinating to see what Randle does during his first 3 years in the NBA. How goes will he be right away? What skills will he improve fairly quickly?

Everyone is so divided on him. I like him. I think he has as much of a chance to be an all star as vonleh, Gordon or smart.
