He’s already top 10-15 .... how’s it a stretch to say he could become top 5 ?

That’s not to say he will or is close ..... but his growth has been exponentially higher than anyone else in the game the past 2-3 seasons

Definitely has the potential to be.

Poor mans smaller/weaker Joel Embiid. He's a stud though.

Definitely fucking not. Embiid isn’t a top 5 player either bud & never will be.

Are y’all high or some shit? In what planet is Pascal Fucking Siakam a top 5, 10, or even top 15 player in the NBA? He’s not a scrub but are y’all sippen some fucking Kool Aid?

Embiid is top 8 for sure already, and has every bit the potential to be top 3 let alone top 5 rofl. Hasn't even reached his prime yet, but if we're talking potential he has as much as any single player in the game (stating the obvious here).

I was on the Siakam wagon before this season though, for the record. Told people he'd be a lock for All-Star and jump into star status after Kawhi was gone which wasn't exactly saying much since it was well known the guy was going to be a stud. Never though the Raptors would still be this good though rofl. You could see his clear breakout the second half of last season. I mean he just broke onto the scene after winning Most Improved but if we're talking about his current play he's top 15 this season lol. There aren't 15 NBA players that i'd rather build a team around.

Fuck the Raptors though.

He definitely fucking not top 15 (Siakam). Embiid is definitely top 10 and he would have to show some drastic improvement or people in the top 5 would have to show a drastic decline for him to fit in there. Hell even Luca Doncic has passed Embiid over in the top 10 easily & only more talent is yet to come if this is Embiid’s plateu. It’s a good one don’t get me wrong but to get in the MVP conversation there is a different level. To be Giannis, Harden, AD, Lebron, Curry, KD, Luka, Kawhi, Damian Lillard (this year) levels isn’t just a fucking cake walk.


Pascal Siakam is AT BEST top 25-30 with a PER VORP DPM TS VA all advanced stats much much below any top 15 player . He has shown amazing growth but you guys are smoking some real good shit to put him anywhere near the likes of the top 15 players on the planet.

Tell me 25 players better than Siakam

Go ahead I’ll wait

And then this entire forum can mock you for being the salty ass bish you are that the raptors slapped that ass

Yeah masssa, right away massa.. Shut the fuck up and go google some shit yourself.

Top 15... LOL...

Googled it .

First article in the list ( and newest )

https://www.google.ca/amp/s/sportsnaut.com/2020/04/best-nba-players-in-2020-changing-of-the-guard/amp/

Even this potato article has him at 20 ....

Lmfaooo so even one of those wack ass “click 17 times to see my full list,” wack pages has him in the 20s & not top 15, glad to see you couldn’t even do your own homework and still got proven wrong.

Fucking idiot lmao. They have him 20 & you can argue that the ones 20-25 can all be interchangeable, one fucking thing he’s not is top 15 , another thing he’s not is NOWHERR NEAR TOP 10 & NO CHANCE IN HELL TOP 5 EVER LOLLLLL

I feel like I’m getting trolled anyways, anywho I’m off work, ✌🏽.

Lillard?

Nah, he's a beast all but he doesn't impact the game the way Embiid does. He's an offensive stud, yes, but defensively what type of game changing effect is he having? Embiid changes the game...on BOTH ends of the floor at the absolute highest level. He's not only playing half the game at a high level. You want to talk about this season? Look at how shit the Trailblazers are, regardless of Lillard's individual production he just doesn't dominate a game from all aspects and his team is still ass. Embiid as a fucking rookie turned the NBA's worst defense into the #1 defense when he was on the floor, he single handedly anchored the defense (literally).

Let's not forget that only three players in the NBA last season scored more than Embiid (#4 in PPG) and only one player rebounded more than him (#2 in RPG). Let's also not forget that he has been a legit top 3 DPOY candidate in voting each of the past two seasons (#2 in 2018).

There are really only two or three players that are clear cut picks over Embiid to build around in the NBA: LeBron, Giannias, Kawhi. Then there's KD (assuming he's healthy). AD is Embiid's bitch and gets daddy dicked in matchups (AD can't even defend Embiid), nn to talk to me about him when Embiid does everything he does except Embiid is a hell of a lot bigger and stronger while in the same range of athleticism. Also not putting Harden up there, because Embiid gets to the free throw line almost just as much without flopping rofl.


Small guards that can't play a high level of defense, no thanks. Offensive specialists, but not complete dominant players. Also, Steph Curry would just get exposed for his relatively mediocre NBA level athleticism on a bad team without a bunch of other players to take the pressure off him. Kinda like we saw in the Finals and this season before he got hurt.

The pot has been stirred. Welcome to the party boys!
