Porzingis looks like a beast. Could have a very high ceiling, I think he will end up being the better of the two between him and Okafor.

Well we all know who's not going to be better than Por and Oka.![]()
i LOVE both porzingis and okafor. I can't get over the fact that the lakers passed on both of them
Both Knicks first rounders looking better than Dbust
Winslow will end up better better than D'Bust ala Kawhi/Derrick Williams
Porzingis is going to be a hybrid of Gasol/Dirk type of player while Okafor is going to be a traditional back to the basket player that gets you 20-10. Both are going to be great players. Amazing how the Lakers passed up on both of these guys.
ing , Porzingis moves incredibly for a 7'3" dude. How did he last to #4?
The Anti skinny 7ft Euro bias has been strong since Bargnani & Vesley ended up being busts.
I loved the Porzingis pick immediately for 2 reasons:
1- Knicks fans booed it, which is a good sign, since most of them are morons
2- He acknowledged in the draft interview that most Euros are perceived as soft players..nice self-awareness there..
Both seem like legitimate franchise players with the early looks.
Lakers will be regretting that one for the next decade, even I'd dbust ends up above average for awhile.
Ouchie.
3. Reddit probably thought it was a bad pick
They probably loved the DeAngelo Russell pick, though![]()
76ers fan were sad about this. They really wanted D'bust Russlow.

I still have no idea why the Lakers drafted Russell. I still have no idea why he was rated so highly coming out college. If your PG doesn't have speed and quickness in the modern NBA, he'll be a liability, regardless of how well his court vision or shooting is. Every elite team has a speed demon at the PG now. Even the fatboy can still get in gear now and then.
D'Bust "he didn't even stretch doe!"
The doesn't even have shootingCourt vision also = turnovers for him
Probably, just because it's the Lakers. That site rides Kirby and the Lakers' even harder than LG and RealGM combined![]()
Porzingis looks really promising tho. Doesn't look like he'll have a long NBA career tho, he'll break down sooner than later.
Lakers fans resorting to "wishful thinking"...I'm sorry to inform you that this ain't the Make-a-Wish foundation for Filipino trannys.
