Have to give it to Embiid... :nod:

Jk

Wiggins, Parker, or Warren. Couldn't decide on one. I guess I'll go homer pick with Warren. Such a natural scorer.

Parker will run away with ROY. It won't even be close. He is the most ready for NBA out of all the draftees. He might not have as high of a ceiling as some others, but his offensive game is second to none right now.

I have Parker given the situation he's in over in Milwaukee as he'll be relied on heavily early in his career. Randle will be the runner up. Wiggins does have the highest ceiling out of them all.

True. He kind of reminds me of Kevin Love with out the 3 ball, (Parker still shoots the 3 ok). Not very athletic, but patient and has a solid face up game.

Parker has to be the favorite.

As for Warren, come on now. He is a nice player, but how will he ever get the minutes early on?

Have you watched Parker play?

Saying that Parker and Love are similar is like saying that Westbrook and Steve Nash are similar. About the only thing these two share is a position.

Warren would be the starter if the season started today. Unless they bring Tucker back, which they might not if a team overpays for him, Warren is looking at 25+ mins a night. He is exactly what the Suns were missing last season. With the Suns high tempo 2 PG system, he will have every opportunity to put up points.

I am not saying he will be ROY, but he will have plenty of minutes & shots to prove himself.

Im going with Marcus Smart

25 - 30 minutes at that spot won't give him a real crack at ROY though.

Most of the offense for the first unit will still go through Dragic and Bledsoe (if still there) or Green. They have a ton of scoring combo forward types on the bench, so while the minutes may be there, I will be shocked if his role is large enough to get him in the conversation with Parker, Smart, Randle, etc.

In the Suns offense, the SF is constantly open for the corner 3 or just inside the arc. That was the issue with PJ last season, he couldn't consistently hit those shots. So the shots will be there for whoever is the starting SF. The offense is based on DragonBlade driving the lane to dish to others. That was the reason Warren was drafted.

Like I said earlier, he likely won't win the ROY, but he will get the shots to show what he has.

Fair enough. I can't disagree with any of that.

It is nice to see that the Bucks finally have a player with some excitement go to their franchise. Congrats, I think he'll be pretty good.
