His skill level at such a young age leads me to believe that he is capable of becoming a once a decade kind of player. Defense is a scarce commodity today.
your arm going through the rim is a goaltend, isn't it?
i don't know, every year there seems to be this new hakeem and yet every year they fail.
Kid has fail written all over him, next Oden if you ask me. I have a feeling a team will regret taking him #1 instead of Parker/Wiggins.
And tbh college ball ing sucks. I was watching some games this past week and damn, terrible basketball. I give props to scouts who can see potential in such a league.
The great big man era is over. Taking one number one overall is a wasted pick.
How do you make an Oden comparison? Oden couldn't stay healthy
This kid will have knee problems.
I'd rather take Parker
Does he have history?
No jk, I just have a feeling he will be a bust, its rare to find a big man who isn't a bust these days. Just don't think he's worthy of a #1 pick.
Not that I know of.
In the NBA it is, no idea in college
All 7+ footers have a high chance of this, but there is no indication he will suffer from bad knees. So far his only injury was to his eye.
People comparing this guy to Hakeem are ing nuts.
Should be #4/5 pick at best.
This kid has zero game, He is all potential. Lacks fundamentals, goes up soft, can't rebound, and just all around doesn't know how to play basketball. He is a monkeyballer. You can't teach Hakeem, you can't teach Duncan. Those players just had it.
Agreed, imho....
Old white people who think -ass college basketball is a better product than the NBA
To be fair, Embiid just started playing basketball in 2011.... the fact that he's playing for a big-time program like Kansas and getting scouts' attention at all is impressive, tbh....
yeah he has "potential" to be an all star but when do these "potential" guys ever pan out?
Once or twice a decade. When they do, though, it is quite a thing to whiteness.

meh, I think his ceiling is a 16 and 10 type player. He's got the athleticism to have a nice career in the NBA, that's for sure, just don't think he'll come close to being a 'special player' or anything like that.
The elite players in the NBA usually dominated college right from the get-go. (Shaq, Hakeem, Durant, Anthony, Curry, Griffin, Wade, Rose, Anthony Davis, etc.)
