You guys all know I am a HUGE Wigs fan, so this is a fun comparison for me.

Danny went number 1, and Raef went number 3, but obviously in different years.   My question to you guys is whether you think that the latest KU number 1 and number 3 will do as well in the NBA as Danny and Raef?  Is that even realistic to expect of them?

Pete come on. Manning won a bronze in 88 and was 2014 Conference USA coach of the year. Wiggins can't top that.

Hey, don't shoot the messenger!

There are going to be some weighty expectations, based on history.  That's all I am saying. 

I heard Raef owns like a boat load of Culvers in the Quad Cities area.  Don't know if that's true or just exaggerations though.

here's my breakdown- 

wiggins -a crafty player, very shakey and bakey.  juke left, then juke right, then dunk.  open for the 3 ball, hey knock it down son!  let's say his defense is serviceable, has blocked a shot or two in his day wink wink lols.

embiid - low craftsman skills but tall and somewhat lanky. from detroit.  could be a terrorist w/ possible ties to african terror cells.  suspended several times this season for links to terrorism.  or hurt back?  doubt we ever find out the truth. if you see him with a bomb go away from him.

raef - shoulder issues have plagued this budding superstar but i look for him to come back next season and make a very real push for an all-star appearance.  a master in the pivot, this olajuwon clone takes nothing for granted and is a force to be reckoned with.

manning - a player who never really found his role on the court, manning was a clean up guy who made the most of his limited skill set.  many i've talked to in compiling this dossier have found manning to be rude and reluctant to discuss his shortcomings on the basketball court.  so screw him.

thanks everybody and go cats



Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

You guys think Embiid's injury was due to withdrawl from drugs? I assume he's clean now that he left Lawrence KS aka Drug Capitol of Earth.

If Duncan can still be Duncan at his age, Raef can still be effective with his higher BBIQ but lesser athleticism

What's not to like about Wiggins?  He almost took Ku to the Sweet 16, not too shabby.

sad to see what a few months in lawrence can do to a quality kid

Hilarious. Screw the injuries, I Love this man for coming into Philly with his chin up high and dick swinging low. This shows he’s already commanding the utmost respect and authority. There hasn’t been a Cookie Monster quote this great since Dikembe walked into the bar declaring “Who Wants To Sex Mutombo?”
Plus nobody’s going to deny your claim of packing extreme heat, Joel. A 7-foot Cameroonian’s dick should rival any hammer in the Animal Kingdom, let alone a couple of 5’10 American white boys in their Dad’s SUV. The damn hog is most likely fluent in multiple languages and could get a Passport if it tried. Just be sure to pull a Patrick Ewing and keep that bad boy taped to the leg while playing ball. If that thing escapes it’ll kill more people than Smallpox.
