Hm.

They still don't know who they want to draft? After reviewing all of the tape, numbers, etc...?

Hm.

What is wrong with the cavs? Just draft Wiggins. Worst Case scenario: Paul George. Best case scenario: prime Tmac on offense and prime Pippen on D.

So nobody believes a damn thing ESPN ever says until it's about how indecisive the cavs are? Okay that's cool.

There's almost no tape of Exum playing against even decent competition. He's a major roll of the dice for whomever takes him. I'd definitely want to see him in person if I were considering him for a pick.

I see him as more of an option if we decide to move down a few slots. I seriously doubt he's in the conversation at 1.

What is kind of interesting is that no one is talking anymore about the Cavs trading Kyrie Irving. But with Waiters and Irving in tow, you would not think the Cavs would be interested in Exum - even at 4.

Could this potentially mean that they got a good offer for Kyrie and are thinking about taking it?????

More likely that they trade Waiters. There have been a few rumors that the Cavs were trying to trade back up into the lottery with their second pick and using Waiters as bait for it. If that's true, Exum would make sense. I doubt they could get that high, though.

With all the hype Exum has been getting lately, including comparisons to a young Kobe Bryant, it makes sense that the Cavs want to see what he is all about in person.

Australian point guard Dante Exum is "in the conversation" for the No. 1 overall pick, source tells SI. Wiggins/Parker still leaders.

Chris Mannix:

So Embiid is not going #1, confirmed.

[outbreak]

eh people read too much into these situations, it's smart to work out as many players as possible even if you don't have an interest in them now. It's also a possibility they are working him out to see if they like the idea of a deal where they take Exum and trade him to a lower team for Embiid and another asset if Embiid goes lower.

This is the most interesting draft of my lifetime by a large margin.

No because Exum is really a two anyway. His ball handling skills are just ok and he's not a super passer. He's just a guy who needs the ball in his hands to be effective. This workout is in case they move down to the Sixers slot.
