Almost doesn't matter as long as you're in the top 3. All of those teams will have a chance to really improve their team if the make the right pick. Cav's have been only OK in the draft. I think this year will finally put them over the top in terms of having a decent team. Hated their pick last year. That was a waste IMO.
Bucks could actually end up with a very good player and that's about all you can say for that franchise. They have nowhere to go but up.
Sixers are the team that will make out like bandits. They should be able to go a long way towards building their future. They have some interesting young players and now get to add a couple more.
I'm hoping and praying Phil can get us into the 1st rd. It would be nice to have at least SOMETHING from this draft. Time to TRADE TYSON.
Phoenix got the 14th. Can we please trade Tyson or Melo for that pick?!

Can't believe they got #1 again.

If the sixers were smart they would trade away some of those picks for some veteran leadership, a guy like tyson chandler, amare, bargiani..no?..lol

They both play the same position, don't they? Or do you project Giannas to be a stretch 4?

For me if Joel Embiid is HEALTHY he is a no brainer.
I was thinking the same but then realized that they actually might be jailbait, which kinda creeped me out. I'm a terrible job of age these days.

It bothered me too. I started an entire thread about it that got blocked, lol. From the time I heard they were guaranteed a spot in the top 3, I knew they were getting the first overall pick. It's ridiculous how many breaks they get. I wonder how this will impact Kyrie Irving and his decision to stay in Cleveland in 2015/2016?

No, I see Wiggins playing the two.

I appreciate that VCoug. Can the risk taking Embid given their recent picks?

He can shoot and defend the position, so I could see it. You don't think that he'd be at his best at the 3 though?
If we did get 16 and 19 from the Bulls for Carmelo Id take
#16 T J Warren(probably the most under rated player in the draft)
#19 Shabazz Napier
If I had nothing else Id look to grab 3-4 of these guys who might fall out of the draft--guys like Jordan Bachynski
Ronald Roberts Jakar Sampson perhaps a high quality PG falls out
etc.. and try to make my summer league team very competitive with the thought process of trying to bring these guys in to camp and fight it out for spots---this is a year where a team who is just opportunistic and smart is going to clean up.
Our roster is clean we have 91mm committed and 8 roster spots open. This is one year where talent does drop much further than almost any year I can think of. Its a year where the Knicks must be opportunistic and hopefully with the right scouting and luck --we find a few gems.
Can Lebron go home? Bennet is not finished, dude had adenoids removed and being treated for asthma.
Also, Cleveland can trade the pick.
Lakers with 7th pick don't make for a good run at Love. Its gonna cost more.

It all comes down to his physical. Especially with Oden's recent example Embiid will probably be the most tested draft pick in NBA history.

I wonder if that clears up his sleep apnea.

A CPAP would've helped with the apnea, regardless. Not sure that the apnea should be an excuse for him.
Knicks win one draft and they call it rigged. Cleveland wins 4 they call them lucky.
