 I really hope the Bucks can pair Wiggins with Giannis. Please take Embiid Cavs.

ESPN is trying to crush my little Sixer hopes again.



Early reports have Cleveland wanting Joel Embiid and Milwaukee has always liked Parker a lot.

Yeah Wiggins falling to 3 would be a nightmare eh?

Bucks will take Wiggins if he is there.

 My big fear if the Bucks pick Parker is that he is Big Dog redux. A great college scorer who becomes a good NBA scorer but limited by athleticism which affects developing any other skills.

I haven't been able to comfortably buy a Bucks jersey after being burnt by Bogut/Jennings purchases, so please be instantly good. Whichever one you pick.

I am really hoping the Cavs go Embiid because Wiggins at SG and Giannis at SF would be awesome to watch. Neither may develop but at least it should make the team much more fun to watch. The size/athleticism at those positions would be insane.

 Supposedly the Bucks board is Parker, Embiid then Wiggins but the source on that is a mediocre Bucks beat writer.

 Not good news for Sixers fans I assume since they would want him to go 1 or 2.

They'll probably be ok. From the latest Woj article:


Three top-10 picks in a deep draft wouldn't be a bad place to start a rebuild.

Sure except what the hell do they have that would garner a top 10 pick without using the 3 or 10?

Hey the forums are back

So one thing I've been wondering, and I'm sure the answer here is obvious, but all they've been talking about here is that Wiggins/Parker are gone by the time they get to the Sixers. Let's say Exum or Embiid (lol) go first, and then Milwaukee takes Wiggins. Do the Sixers just take Parker? I'm only asking this here because no one is actually factoring him in as a theoretical option available at three. It feels like no one is talking about him any more.

Needless to say I'm pretty loving sure that Hinkie is gonna blow it tomorrow and make a reach pick because it would be a Sixers thing to do.

General consensus is the Bucks would take Parker over Wiggins so you don't even have to worry if that situation develops. As a Bucks fan I am hoping Cleveland takes Parker so the Bucks get Wiggins. Either way thank jesus the Bucks did not get the third or fourth pick this year.
