Totally. And here we were a couple weeks ago hoping we could be more like the Spurs; good passers and versatile skillsets at every position.

On Embiid, I'd guess there is an outside shot at Parker or Exum at 4, but you take Embiid otherwise. Too much potential.

I'm sure this has been posted already but Chad Ford has his final mock up and it was posted AFTER the AA deal.

#4: Vonleh
#12: Payton

Unless there is a major free agent signing to come from the AA salary dump, I would walk away from this very disappointed.

Sorry, posts are flying in so quickly right now. It is hard to keep up with what has been posted!

He can have my fiancé if he gets us the #1 pick!

What if she wants him to draft Exum?

What would be really **** up is if Cleveland moves back to #3, picks Exum and holds him hostage for #4 and #12 from us.

Unless we really believe Exum will be there at 4 or Embiid is really going to be back to form, I'd offer 4,12, and Harris and even Moe for 1 and Jack. I would think they'd take that over 3, 10 and 32. Hopefully at least.

In efforts to put the kabash on my Cle anti-fantasy, at this point in the day, can teams not trade draft picks? Aren't they only allowed to select players and then trade them.

So, I don't see Cle wanting Exum with Irving. That means if there was a Cle Sixers trade, the Cavs would select Wiggins and the Sixers would select Embiid and then consummate the trade.

*I'm assuming Cavs would go with Embiid in this scenario

That's correct. In that case, I am fine with sticking with Exum. It just all depends on how we grade guys out. Do we think Exum is at least close to on par with Wiggins and Jabari? If so, stay with him if he's there. I haven't seen the workouts, but I do believe Exum is closer to that level than I originally thought. We'll really know how this all plays out in about two to three years.

Maybe Dipo by himself. If the little birdie said Dipo+4, then you better break its neck.

cmon man. Dipo would be back end of lottery if he was in it. Dont overvalue our players. We just did that with AA...

You rather have Dipo/Exum or just Wiggins?

Back end of the lottery? That's underrating him. He might be around 7-8 if he entered this draft, but we have seen that he can play and he improved tremendously since he got drafted. That's a lot of value, knowing that he can play and still has a lot of potential, that's why he's valuable. You can't say that about anyone in this draft because they haven't step on the court yet, any of them can be a huge bust. Would you trade him for a 5th pick? I know I wouldn't because I doubt there be many players from this lottery that'll be better than him. If you think he's worth only a late lottery pick then I don't know what to say beside being glad you're not the GM.

Logically, Cleveland should probably just keep the pick. As much as I want them to trade it, taking Wiggins or Parker is better than risking it on an injured center.

Is that at the RDV?

LetItRain · Post #1394 » by **LetItRain** » Thu Jun 26, 2014 7:38 pm

I just don't think Cleveland even knows what the eff they're doing. They're just running around like chickens with their heads cut off fielding all these trade requests just because they can. Case in point, the last minute Exum workout request. How can you not do your homework with the #1 pick?

Cammo101 · Post #1395 » by **Cammo101** » Thu Jun 26, 2014 7:40 pm

I'd say it looks like we will take Exum if he is there, and Vonleh if he is not.

Vonleh would be the biggest disappointment ever. I'd rather have Smart than Vonleh and I'm not a fan of Smart whatsoever.

If theres one thing this trade guarantees, its that tobias is scoring 20 a game next year.

If Vonleh had the hype Jabari, Wiggins, Embiid had, you'd want him. Plain and simple as that. Most of you hating on Vonleh are doing it only because you were set on one of the "Big 3" and had never heard of this kid until recently and/or you haven't seen enough of him.

He's 18.
