winslow = mini jae Crowder. Its easy to take advantage of college 4s when the court is spread. What will he do against quicker, taller, and better 3s on the nba level.

It's like playing Shump at 3.

looks the same to me and he has a suspect handle for a 3 and that doesnt help if you move to 2.

There is a larger body of work than just the tournament. Thats my point, Towns was not "the man" cuz "the man" gets a piece of the net!

Oka4 was hobbled AND they colapsed on him. The "man" was Jones who executed what Wisc gave them!
The games was not a pre draft combine, this was a game and sometimes you aim to neutralize one player in hopes the others won't execute.
For once Duke had the outside shot going when the bigs were not there.

for the season, Okafor was dukes best player. Jones and Winslow came up big. I don't care who we pick quite frankly. For now how the pick poing balls land is more important.

Either 1st or 2nd!!!

If they get a top 3 pick they will be fine. I think the odds are at 54% for top three.

55.8

so of course my $20 is on top 3.

poker players never choose 45 over 55

I think they will be in great shape if they get a top 3 pick.

agreed! Unfortunately we have a 45 percent chance of not getting it and that is scary. After the top 3, it seems like a crapshoot.

This is going to be nerve racking.

1st overall: 19.9%
2nd overall: 18.8% - 38.7% Top 2
3rd overall: 17.1% - 55.8% Top 3
4th overall: 31.9% - 87.7% Top 4
5th overall: 12.3% - 100%

If we fall to 3rd or lower, we need the Sixers to fall behind us, and preferably the Lakers to fall out of the top 5- that may then give us the option of trading with the Sixers for 2 picks (not saying we should do it, but it's nice to have options.). If Sixers finish 1 or 2 and we finish 3, I think they will consider trading Embiid for the 3rd so they can draft OK4 and Russell, which would be a killer draft for them. Again, I probably wouldn't do that deal, but it's nice to have options.
