i don't believe it though.
I'd nut at that.
Also, why does everyone always assume the cavs are seriously listening to any of these offers? People acting like the pick has already been trading the way posters shit on us.

they could but if they bought in melo or lebron they would want to switch to win now mode and wiggins still needs time to develop, parker is more of a contribute now player but even then they play the same positions and they may prefer some proven players for a team trying to contend.

It's a bad trade. I don't see the beneficial side of it. We're missing out on the best players in the draft, each of which play a position of need for the Cavs, for a guy whose numbers were very similar to Tristan Thompson's last season... and Alec Burks.
I'd be totally sick.

Wouldn't be too offended, people just like speculating. Most of the "leaked" rumours will likely be totally made up or leaked by teams trying to increase the value of the asset.

Take Wiggins and call it a day. Parker doesnt want to be there.
Unless you know for a fact Lebron is returning.

Cavs will find a way to screw it up. They're over-thinking it

Oh okay. I'm cool with that. I don't think Henni would bite on that one.

No way they could blow this, it seems so simple. God have mercy on the cavs fan base if they blow this opportunity.

It's easy to forget this time of year that, in the NBA, quantity is not better than quality. If you hit on the right player in the right system with the right team, it is priceless.
The only way a deal like this make any sense whatsoever, from where I'm sitting, is if the Cavs still really want to take Embiid but not at No. 1 and they think he might drop to 5. But, even then, it's not a trade you complete before the draft.
You wait to see how the draft plays out, have the Jazz select Embiid at 5 if he's there and then do the deal afterward. Otherwise, you're setting yourself up for disaster.

I bet that's what the Cavs are asking for.

Thunder it DOWN, Dion!
Re: Cleveland listening to offers for 1st pick from Jazz, Sixers, Wolves, Magic
The problem with you dudes who are hating on the Cavs fielding offers is that Wiggins isn't as good as you think he is.
I've been saying this for six months. Based on the amount of rumors floating around, Cavs probably agree with me.
Its very obvious Cleveland feel they need a physical Center big time. They ain't winning sh*t with a skinny ass Wiggins on the wing and Spencer Hawes in the middle.

I still don't get it.
Who are the Cavs taking at 4 if Parker, Wiggins and Embiid are off the board? The last thing they need is a PG/combo guard. They haven't worked out Vonleh, I don't believe. I guess that pick might make some sense...
But still, I don't understand why you just don't take the best player in the draft and be done with it.
