I just was bringing out the fact that Towns is a much larger human than Ewing at the same age. Let me say this as a comparison. Towns and Ewing are much more closely related than you think. And for someone to chime in and say well what about Okafor--well there would be a debate whether one would pick a young karl Malone or Patrick Ewing. This is a different time in basketball you could very well be looking at modern day Ewing's and malone here in this draft. RIP Crushalot😞

I remember exactly where I was when I was watching this game. In the lounge in my freshmen dorm. This game and '85 vs Villanova will always be special to me.
Bring back dee-fense

If Towns is 253 than OK4 is not the 260 he is listed at. Maybe 275lbs

Mudiay to me is John Wall, Damian Lilard, Russell Westbrook at the PG position. If switched to SG he could be that do everything SG in the Kobe, Harden and Jordan type, he may not be as good but if you get 20-24 points, 6-7 assists and 4-5 rebounds from the SG position imagine how good the ball movement would be. That type of versatility is what makes the triangle flow. Remember one thing Phil always had was that elite SG. |

If Towns is off the board I can definitely see taking Mudiay over Ok4 if he impresses during individual workouts

Ewings ass really did fill out. Imagine how bigs oka4 will get in the next 7-8 years. It will be an imovable force in the paint.
