Someone offering Towns for Embiid. 10 team 8 cat.
At this point is it more likely Embiid > town ROS?

Without turnovers counted, yeah, I'd be taking Embiid. He's basically doing everything we HOPED Towns would be doing. Minnesota will likely be messy until Butler's gone - that could be tomorrow, or it could be next year. Embiid for me.

Capt you're right, but there's two other factors making it hard for me to decline.

First, I think it's reasonable to project Embiid at 70 games played, while Towns at 80. So when comparing these 2, Towns should get a 1.1 - 1.2x multiplier in his stats.
Second, Towns has a better playoff schedule, and more likely to be playing heavier minutes.

8-cat brings them a lot closer to together in projections. I think I'd still rather have KAT.
