I hate to bring their names up, and I have higher hope for Chriss, but Derrick Williams and Anthony Bennett had the size, athleticism, and shooting ability. They didn't have the feel/smarts for the game and consistent effort to put it all together. Chriss is a scary, though, very intriguing prospect.

Yes, both scary and intriguing. I'd stay away from him. All-star potential but too much bust potential.

With how high he's expected to go, I have to agree with you. I too would stay away from Chriss. I'm looking for more of a sure thing with our pick.

To compare I think Bender is risky too but his floor seems solid because he has the motor, BBIQ passion for the game etc at his size make him seem like a guy that will at least be a role player.

I have also thought of Bennett when I think of Chriss. Both were able to use their size and athleticism to become very good college players, but that physical superiority didn't translate to the NBA level.
I actually think a lot of the jump up the mock boards for Chriss has to do with his personal attributes. He is as well-rounded, smart and pleasant as anybody in the draft, and is likely blowing executives away in his interviews. But pleasant doesn't equal success in the NBA.
