Maybe they'll make a bone-headed pick again?

That's why I hate the lottery. Yeah, it benefited us... but still. It's just an unfair system imo.

Should be interesting what the Cavs decide to do now. If they plan on making a run at LBJ if he opts out, then drafting Wiggins or Parker wouldn't be wise since they'll both play the 3.

IF, and that is a BIG IF, Lebron does come back, you draft Embid.

That's not how they do things in Cleveland.

First they set up a dart board, then Dan will take Nick Gilbert's glasses off, spin him around 10 times, give him a baseball, and make him throw it at a pinata.
Whoever loses, has to buy Chuck-E-Cheeze tokens for the rest of the Gilbert family, then they draft the guy that gives Gilbert the biggest cut on fathead merchandise.

It worked with Irving, so this method is proven and now a tradition.

Well at least Wiggins will get his wish and not play in LA.

Embiid wouldn't be a bad pick regardless. They can't screw up this pick. But yeah, 3 #1 picks in 4 years is just stupid...

If I were the Cavs, I'd take Embid regardless. They are a play-off team with him.

Given Embiid's injury issues...picking him could turn into a bad pick.

Ah good point. Given the Cavs' luck, he probably becomes an invalid the moment they draft him

It is not completely out of the realm of possibility that the Cavs' roster next year could be:

Kyrie Irving. Jarrett Jack.
Andrew Wiggins. Dion Waiters.
Luol Deng(FA).
LeBron James(FA). Anthony Bennett.
Tristan Thompson. Anderson Varejao(FA). Tyler Zeller.

Dear. Sweet. Jesus.

Wiggins and Waiters are both guards so it works. Even so, that team is mad athletic and can score and defend all over the court. I think it could work.
