Underachieved, out of shape, average production, low risk, low ceiling
vs
Often-injured, character questions, no time played, high risk, high ceiling


Just wanted to know this forum's take on these two disappointing players, which actually have more trade value and why? and if they're equal value, would we accept a 1:1 trade?

A player who has never played a game, and has questions as to whether or not he ever will vs. A player that looks to be capable of at least 16/8?

Why is this a question? (For the record, though, Philly would never do the trade because they'd rather have a guy with a 1% chance of being a star, even if he may never play, and I doubt they're looking to start winning yet)

Wow.

My first reaction was "What a dumb question! What is this garbage?"

and then I realized I actually have no idea.

If I could trade Sullinger for Embid right now, I think I would!

Embiid's attitude is worse than Sully's... This guy deliberately went against instructions and lost a season for it. Sully isn't much better in the attitude department with the weight issues but at least he doesn't act like a spoiled kid who thinks he deserves the world and has actually played a minute of NBA basketball.

To add to valid this question is  :laugh: , I'm not sure i would actually give up Sullinger for Embiid.

Embid is still worth 3 times more than Sully.

Read that last line again. One more time.

Which would you rather have, a lottery ticket or a scratch ticket?

Sully - because he can play this year and produce whereas Embiid is out for at least another year and has not proven he can produce

Embiid. Not because I trust him, but because he has 2 more years on his rookie contract than Sullinger does.

I'm not sure Embiid will ever play more than a few years.
