Goons have hated on some really good picks the past few years before they panned out so it'll be funny to see who we all needlessly hate that will be A Player

Andrew Wiggins moves so well. I would hate to be the team that doesn't draft him. I don't think the Rudy Gay comparisons are fair at all. Rudy Gay was passive in college, but took the "YOU GOTTA TAKE OVER GAMES" advice much too much to heart and became the player everybody loves to hate. Unless people are projecting that for Wiggins, I don't see it.

Zagsblog is saying the Cavs are set on Wiggins...if they keep the pick. Which means that they're taking Gordon.

NO shopping Ryan Anderson and Austin Rivers (lmao)

Aaron Gordon "guaranteed" to go before Randle and Vonleh. Jazz?

Only makes sense if Phi is getting Embiid, then ORL goes Exum, Jazz getting Gordon makes sense

@WojYahooNBA: Philadelphia is still working on a final decision at No. 3, but Joel Embiid has a tremendous chance to be selected there,

Welp

Healthy Noel and Healthy Embiid would be a daunting frontcourt to attempt to score on. If they could trade for the Suns training staff I'd say go for it. Do it, Philly. Do. It.

I'd take that deal. That makes you think they saw more of Embiids file or more of Exum and don't believe in them at all.

Cleveland would have to be insane to turn that down, especially since Philly's #1 next year is likely to be top 5 again (and maybe the #1, because they're not going to be good next year regardless of who they get tonight). That said, there's no way that offer is real.

They're basically offering up 3 very good draft picks and their only serviceable player to increase their already not insignificant odds of getting the guy they want.

I won't pretend to watch college basketball enough to be a bonafied Wiggins expert, but every game I saw him in at Kansas his "passiveness" looked an awful lot like "nobody in this system is even trying to get him the ball or looking at him at all and the point guard is dribbling all over the loving place." Almost every time he would get the ball, he'd act quickly to make a play and make a good thing happen.
