Yahoo is reporting it. Pretty much confirmed.

[trabash]

Of course he enters the draft, why would he stay in college for another year and waive all those millions.

:banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

[cos88]

any team that will pick embiid with parker or wiggins available is either stupid or plans to tank another year. he isn't nba ready has huge potential but at actually basketball abillity right now he is not top 6 even.

[treadster]

I wonder what team will take embiid? By potential alone he could go #1 in the draft but due to his back problem i wonder what team is willing to risk a greg oden-like situation again.

100 million dollar Addidas contract incoming

[Xiao Yao You]

Anyone guess if he'll fit best with Kanter or Favors?

Kantar shows flashes of great offense, but those flashes aren't consistant. I'm not a fan of his defense either.

Embiid may be young and raw but he's still has alot of potential on offense and can be a force on D.

Favors and Embiid in a frontcourt would be scary defensivley and has so much potential with Trey Burke, Alec Burks, and Gordon Hayward on offense.

[Basketbolero]

Super raw and possibly injury prone. Wonder if the Bucks will really go for him.
Giannis + Embiid :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Stop acting like the Jazz woudn't pick Jabari Parker

[IGOTGAME]

He is not "super raw."

[Thorpesaurous]

Yeah, why would he stay. One more season with even a fluke injury and he'd be hit with the Scarlet Letter. At worst he's 5. And he could be one, albeit that to me would require a few people staying.

The Bucks would be interesting, although they just gave big money to Larry Sanders. I'm sure they'd try to move him for 50 cents on the dollar at that point given his issues this year.

The Jazz would have a tough decision too. Neither Kanter or Favors spreads the floor much, and both sort of get in each other's way, so they'd certainly be in Embid's. I don't really know what I'd do there. Favors could form a terrific defensive tandem, and his mid post face up game is not bad, but it'd still be in the way. Kanter has more high post face up passing game. I don't think he's as terrible defensively as his lack of rim protection / foot speed suggests. He's actually pretty good against the PnR, but now you're asking him to move down to PF more.

I'd be inclined to see what the market is for both of them and focus on rebuilding around Burke and Embiid, and give Hayward his extension. All of them are still young enough that if you made them your core, and added 2-3 firsts per year over the next couple based on your own, GS's, and whatever you could get for Kanter and / or Favors, and you've sort of just given yourself a 7 year window depending on health.

[Jameerthefear]

Tbh i don't want him

Still shook over shaq and dwight:lol

[Jailblazers7]

I would really love to see him in Philly. Noel can be the active pick n' roll big with Embiid holding down the block. I think the spacing would be a little weird but I think it would work because of Embiid's passing. Awesome defensive duo too.

[Jameerthefear]

Kantar shows flashes of great offense, but those flashes aren't consistant. I'm not a fan of his defense either.

Same could be said about Favors showing flashes of great d and offense but not consistent at either one.


Stop acting like the Jazz woudn't pick Jabari Parker

Parker hasn't declared and could be gone when the Jazz pick. If Embiid is the best player available when they pick they need to take him.


Neither Kanter or Favors spreads the floor much

Kanter hits outside shots consistently and Favors has flashed it. I see Kanter extending his game out to the 3 point line eventually but he's too good in the post to be spending too much time out there.


and both sort of get in each other's way, so they'd certainly be in Embid's.

They've been looking better together of late. Favors and Burke are a good pick and roll tandem and Kanter has the inside/out game. Defensively Kanter has to get better.


I don't really know what I'd do there. Favors could form a terrific defensive tandem, and his mid post face up game is not bad, but it'd still be in the way. Kanter has more high post face up passing game. I don't think he's as terrible defensively as his lack of rim protection / foot speed suggests. He's actually pretty good against the PnR, but now you're asking him to move down to PF more.

Some think him and Favors are both PF's and they need a center who could be Gobert if he can improve at all offensively.


I'd be inclined to see what the market is for both of them and focus on rebuilding around Burke and Embiid, and give Hayward his extension.

You forgot arguably their best player this year Burks. Burke has a lot to prove still. They might want Smart or Exum. Hayward could get overpaid and unless they front load it they need to let him go before over paying him.


All of them are still young enough that if you made them your core, and added 2-3 firsts per year over the next couple based on your own, GS's, and whatever you could get for Kanter and / or Favors, and you've sort of just given yourself a 7 year window depending on health.

Sounds like more tanking. They were basically a .500 team during the middle of this season. They need to be looking to win next year as they obviously should have been this year.

[IGOTGAME]

uhhhh....ya he is.

He's been playing basketball for close to 2 years.

Correlation doesn't equal causation.

BTW heres a clue, nothing will come out of Orlando even if they had top 3 picks for the next decade, you cant fix a failed franchise

Damn. Orlando isn't even at it's peak yet and we have a lot of haters. Love this shit. It just shows you that other teams are afraid right now. They don't want this. Shit feels good.

If the Jazz pick with Jabari Parker on the board, they're taking him, regardless of whether Embiid is still available. They'd kill for a Mormon star in that town.

[Andrei89]

ISH must be one of the worst basketball forums around indeed.

Sure, Embiid now has a problem with is back, but now, all of a sudden, because he had back problems, he is also very raw and not NBA ready and not that good.

This guy would have gone at Nr1 had it not been the back problems, that is how good he is. And , no, not only because of his potential. He is solid defensively, great in the low post, great size and a good passer.

If his back will be ok for the rest of his career, the guy will become a superstar.

Welcome to Jameer's playground, where 2 Finals appearances and 0 championships trumps 8 Finals appearances and 5 championships since the Magic's inception.

Nah, you're not a troll at all.

I hope to god that teams pass on him and he falls to the Lakers.

Yeah, Twit a shit yet again.

Or just conflict reports?

Joel should stay though. He is way too raw.

[Jailblazers7]

Embiid really isn't raw tho. His skills (at least offensively) are way more NBA ready than Oden was when he declared.

That is racist and shows an inherent lack of knowledge about anime outside of Dragon Ball Z.

Also, you guys are pathetic if you don't realize Jameer does this specifically to get these reactions from you. You guys are so easy.
