re: Anyone else think that Hinkie may run the risk of devaluing his biggest assets?

Hinkie is swinging for the fences, if okafor is his number one guy he's going to take him. Having him and embiid doubles your chances of having a game changing center. As much as I like noel, he's more of a potential star role player than true star player.

the devaluation continues
every year it seems that the new "next big thing" will get hyped and hinkie's draft misses will be pushed aside like noel is
then revisionist history will commence and everyone will claim they really didn't think the devalued young player was that good

But having him and Embiid would probably devalue one, if not both. Both guys are going to need to play a lot and neither are power forwards, unless I'm mistaken. How far in do you decide which is your player of the future and then what can you unload the other for?
Let's say Embiid ends up being a top-10 center, but every other asset flopped and they're stuck with just Embiid, a bunch of scrubs and role players, and cap space -- do you think it was worth it?

and this is wrong
if he were, he'd be acquiring legit NBA talent and not future mid-1st round picks. when is he going to do this?
until he takes that risk, i don't see it as "swinging for the fences". he's being really conservative and kicking the can down teh road

Not really...He is adjusting his cup with one foot out of the batter's box.
