Embiid is the quintessential example of youth and inexperience being positives. He's that good for having only played two years.
Someone is going to draft him super ****ing high. And if they don't, and he comes back for a second year... I'll dance naked in the streets.

He's bigger than Aldridge. Huge wingspan. Just by looking at him, you know he has the potential to be a great defensive player at some point at the next level, which LMA never has been and never will be. Only time will tell whether he can develop that kind of offensive game to go along with it.
