Sources: Cavs were calling around offering teams Orlando's picks at 4 & 12 for players last night. Interesting

James Young was in a minor car accident. Caused him to miss his last 5 workouts. He's OK. But may explain his recent draft slide

Magic would take Jabari at 1 I'm told. But deal isn't done. Cavs were just gauging value of 4th & 12th pick. Sixers also upping offer for 1

Goodbye #10.

If we trade 3 and 10 for Wiggins then that is going to be very disappointing.

Unless we get back into the top 10, but if we do that, it can't involve MCW (because there is no way we're getting Exum).

ya I'd be pretty bummed about 3 and 10 for Wiggy

luckily it's impossible for all of Ford's rumors to be true

whoa the Wiggy nickname just depressed me

BIG WIGGY STYLE ALL IN IT

I'm so uncertain about Embiid and Exum I think I'd do it. However, I can't see Hinkie trading two assets for one.

I'd still prefer Exum or Embiid plus Stauskas or Gordon or Randle.

Don't think Wiggins is a sure enough thing to give up a #3 and #10 pick.

Woggnan, God Of Buckets

I still don't think Orlando has offered that much. Think this is all a ploy for Cleveland to get to #3 to guarantee themselves Embiid.

They tried to move down to #2. Then all of a sudden the Bucks like Exum, not Parker. Cleveland loses some leverage on the "we love Parker" narrative.

Then the Cavs go from " drafting Parker" to the "internal struggle over owner wanting Wiggins" just like owner wanted Anthony Bennett. Sixers now on Cleveland's radar to trade down. Risk losing shot at Parker and Wiggins. You then hear the MCW rumors again and that Sixers love Exum. Aren't totally enamored with Wiggins.

So Cavs now focused on this Orlando offer which doesn't exist. Magic in perfect spot to trade out for Embiid suitor or can draft Exum or Smart at 4 to complement Oladipo. They don't have a huge need to trade house for #1. But moving to #4 could leave Cleveland with Exum which they do not want.

I think Cleveland is screwed which is why all these rumors are out there.

I think all this bluffing through the media is overplayed. these guys are actually talking to each other on the phone all day, doubt they're checking twitter right after and getting flummoxed

I love that I have no clue what's going to happen despite reading everything humanly possible for the last month.

I have a feeling that there's no trades in the top 4 picks. After that? It's wide open.

I think it's more likely they are talking to ford/other insiders directly hearing all of this and we are just getting some of it.
