If Porzingis is like Ibaka we have to try to trade up to get him.

he reminds me of Ibaka in that he is long, athletic and a good jump shooter for a four. They both are face-up bigs who stretch the floor. Not sure Porzingis is as good of a shot-blocker but I've read that he has good potential as a rim-protector if he adds weight. Also, Porzingis might actually be more skilled than Ibaka as far as ball-handling

Are these your comparisons? I'd guess so. If Kevin Looney's ceiling is Antwan Jamison, who I believe was a multi-time all star and one of the leagues 30 or so best players in his prime and Myles Turner's ceiling is Jajuan Johnson, a guy picked last in the 1st round by the C's and washed out of the league in a few years, I'll take that to mean you don't like Turner much.

Personally, I like Winslow, Johnson and WCS as guys we could trade up for realistically if DA really likes them. Would fill major needs and would have good potential. Just depends on the assets needed to move up.

These are my comparisons but I based the big board off of other big boards. I'm not a huge fan of Myles Turner but most people have him in the lottery and I could see an NBA team valuing his shot blocking.

You gotta look at your comparisons and think about just how historically stacked this draft would be if even half were accurate.
You’ll have to excuse my lengthiness—the reason I dread writing letters is because I am so apt to get to slinging wisdom & forget to let up. Thus much precious time is lost.
