    Jordan would just skew that #3 data more.

    But after Jordan, the #3 had Benoit Benjamin and Washburn, Hopson...

    TJ Ford with a 22? He played two full seasons.

    Skewed data?

    I'm going to need someone to put all of this in a PowerPoint for me.

    I'm sorry if you don't understand how the league's third all-time leading scorer being drafted third would alter this data.

    Has to be a numeric anomaly that there were no busts or DNPs at 22.

    Extremely flawed methodology.

    One thing about tanking this year is that even if you don't get the No. 1 pick, you might be in good shape with a Top 5. Right now is there much difference between Wiggins, Parker, Smart, Randle and Embiid? Scouts are really high on all of them and some people really like the Dante Exum guy from Australia.

    Having seen most of KU's games this season, I might take Embiid No. 1. The guy is rapidly becoming a monster at both ends of the floor. And he has a little attitude that will serve him well as a true post/enforcer. I'm excited to see where his game will be by March.

    So like "Suck for Luck," the slogan teams like the Bucks will be using will be "Skid for Embiid"?

    Or "Park It for Parker?"
