Cleveland is taking Embiid or they will trade with Philly and take him at #3. If he falls past that, it's because his agent is steering him to Boston or the Lakers. I'd prefer the Lakers, as I live in Los Angeles and would love to finally have a reason to root for those bastards. |

Stress fracture in foot, surgery tomorrow, according to Adrian Wojnarowski.
Another stress fracture could be the worst thing for his draft stock.

Come to Boston JoJo. You must.
That or from a medical standpoint it would be great if PHX got him.

back problems stress fracture in a foot there really couldn't be 2 worse medical red flags for a big man in the NBA other than the imminent death red flag, i suppose This is a place where the NCAA could really help out by letting him go back to school.

He wasn't trying to pull a fast one or anything, this is a legit reason for a exception to go back to school. Whether he hired an agent or not.

I got a question for you guys. Not trolling.
I watched a lot of games last year. They didn't seem to play as a team until later in the season. With Embid and Wiggins on the team, why didn't the team perform better this year? What's the general consensus on the under performing last year?

1) Point guard play was average for part of the season and sucked for the other part. 2) Team Defense - These guys never bought into the Team Defense concept. Individually, we had some great defenders but as a team....they were below average. 3) Losing Embiid at the end contributed to an average defense turning into a weak one. 4) KU really didnt have a leader on this team. No Jr./Sr. leadership hurt them IMO.....

The frustrating thing is I don't know how you 'fix' something like Wiggins' performance in the tournament.... experience would obviously fix it, if that was an option, but it's definitely frustrating watching some young kids on other teams shine after watching that game against Stanford... but, different expectations for different kids, and shit happens. ![]()

However, the “didn’t perform better” is just perception because they didn’t make it to the sweet 16. They played the toughest non-con in recent memory (not just for KU but in the country), and still won the Big 12 by a comfortable margin. No PG play, Selden banged up and ineffective, Embiid out, Wiggins disappearing in the Stanford game = no sweet 16.
