Next year's draft isn't so deep after all

[Derivative]

After all the hype at beginning of the season, turns out next year's draft's class isn't that deep after all.

Andrew Wiggins: looking like another rudy gay type of player, all athleticism, no skills and consistency

Julius Randle: fell off from his early season performance, another derrick william type tweener who happens to be unathletic and small

Marcus Smart: another dion waiters type of player, short combo guard who happens to be a chucker

Dante Exum: no word on him since beginning of season, which means he isn't doing well

Joel Embiid: another 7 footer with no skill, just another thabeet/biyimbo


Only good player from this draft is jabari parker, and due to his limited athleticism, I don't see him becoming any kind of lebron or durant type of player. Maybe more like Irving, mediocre athleticism, alot of skills. But no superstar material.

exum has been talked about constantly the past two months.

So you've taken all the top prospects and basically compared them to a "worst case scenario" without looking at the likelihood that they end up better. Great analysis there! Submit a resume to ESPN right away.

does any of the top prospects other than jabari warrant any comparisons to good nba players? No.

its not even the worst, embiid is already twice the player biyombo or thabeet will ever be and wiggins can teach rudy lessons about defense..

You compared Wiggins to Rudy Gay, are you really trying to say he's not a good NBA player?

Andrew Wiggins: looking like another rudy gay type of player, all athleticism, no skills and consistency. because of some stupid raptors fans that are always mad about everything rudy gay is now a bad nba player. smh

Julius Randle: fell off from his early season performance, another derrick william type tweener who happens to be unathletic and small

Marcus Smart: another dion waiters type of player, short combo guard who happens to be a chucker

Dante Exum: no word on him since beginning of season, which means he isn't doing well

this post is so bad is actually funny.

so if you are athletic is bad, if unathletic is still bad. op expects world-class at every category.

marcus smart is nothing like dion or a chucker, he improved a lot this year also a nba ready defender.

exum don't know him

randle 10 games at kentucky 17.2 ppg 11.3 rebounds. not a tweener, taller, heavier and stronger than williams.

wiggins underachieving so far but no skill ? :facepalm i should have stopped reading there.

embiid started basketball a couple of years ago, all about potential but is more skilled than thabeet, more natural. you're wasting your time if are expecting hakeem.

Only good player from this draft is jabari parker, and due to his limited athleticism :facepalm . omg

Well this escalated quickly... :roll: #datbackfiredoe

[The JKidd Kid]

The fact that you just said Rudy Gay is all athleticism no skill, that Julius Randle small and derrick Willaims like, that we havnt heard anything about Exum even though he just averaged a near triple double in under 19 tournament, and you said that Joel Embiid has no skill shows that you know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT BASKETBALL. Yes this draft hasn't lived up to the hype, but it isn't for any of those reasons. One of the stupidest non troll threads I've ever seen.

Wiggins to Gay is honestly one of the worst comparisons I've ever seen. They have absolutely nothing in common. The only thing they even have remotely in common is athleticism and Wiggins is in a completely different league of athleticism.

I checked the NCAA and International boards, no sign of it. Checked to see if it was merged with another thread, no dice either.

I'm hoping I'm overreacting, but if it was deleted, pretty immature and ridiculous of whoever did it.

[DStebb716]

Kyrie Irving: Didn't play much in college. Injury prone like Sam Bowie.


Oh, wait...

[DStebb716]

People need to wake up and realize how different the college game is versus the NBA. This draft is still one of the best ever going in.

It's almost like you want the draft to be bad.

So if everyone in the draft ends up playing like shit the draft isn't deep..... sounds legit

[KyrieTheFuture]

I've never understood why anyone calls draft classes weak or deep before any of the players even play. People are right like 4% of the time.
