    If I'm a GM with the #1 pick, I'm taking the guy who is far more athletic and quick, seems to have a great work ethic, is coachable, is long, has a vertical of more than 15 inches and can play above the rim, and can defend multiple positions. The fact that another guy's team got to the championship game rather than just the Final Four is irrelevant when it comes to evaluating talent to compete at the NBA level.
    And that is why you are not a GM.

    Also your accounts of Towns being more athletic and quick is simply not true. There are articles mentioning his immaturity. 15 inch vertical...lol, really reaching there.

    Okafor is faster, bigger, and watch the test numbers during draft combines.

    These dudes are locks for top three in the draft, they won't be doing any testing at the combine more than likely.

    Neither are as impressive as the hype, Embiid was a waay better prospect imho.

    Thank you Captain Milbuck.

    Healthy Embiid is obviously better. I'll take a healthy Oak/Towns over an Embiid back in protective boot (as of weeks ago)

    Haven't seen any numbers on tests, but having seen them both play it definitely looks like KAT is faster, quicker and generally moves around on the floor easier than Okafor.
