Ford says Cleveland prefers Parker and Bucks might prefer Exum to Wiggins and Embiid if he shows well in workouts. Sixers might have their pick between Wogans and Embiid
no offense but you are everything that's wrong with America

I refuse to accept this as truth because it is too perfect.

I like Embiid because I'm biased towards size and athletic ability. He's got an NBA body already and if his back can hold up he'll be a very nice presence in the paint for a decade.

If he's healthy, he'll be the most productive player to come out of this draft.

As long as we get that one.


Well, if there's 4 teams I would want picking in front of us, its the Cavs, Bucks, Kings, and Bobcats. So there's that.
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

Ya never know. But if Wiggins has the chance to become a Kobe mega-star. Are either of the two teams in front of us willing to pass on that possibility knowing that Jordan was passed on? Knowing that Charlotte, who drafted Kobe handed him over to Lakers ??

I want Wiggins too, because while he may never be that good. There's the chance for a top 5 or top 10 player in the NBA. He's still a kid. Doesn't have the full mature adult body. He's closer to High School really ...

I'm sure we get a good - really good player. If Nerlin gets healthy and MCW keeps improving -- we'll have some things to look forward to. But it sure would have been nice to just get the #1 pick and not have to wonder for a month. Be nice to get a real player at #10 as well.

They have to get this right. This cannot become a boon-doggle.

NBA has to stop fooling around with this lottery nonsense. Just do what the NFL does.

Probs not. Seems like the classic wingspan guy some team gets a boner for.

I think the most likely guys to fall are Gordon or Smart.

Welp, I thought there was no chance he got past the Cavs at 9, so I guess we don't have to worry about that. I don't see Charlotte using their pick on him. Everybody else? Good luck.

I just don't see us taking Jabari. "He's NBA ready" is his biggest plus. Great, but our team isn't.

cavs beat writer: JasonLloydABJ: In case you're wondering, Jabari Parker has been at the top of #Cavs draft board much of the season.
