That's a toughy. If wiggins is a franchise guy though you take him. Depends on their evaluation of him. I wouldn't trade lbj/durrant for 5 1st rounders.

Chris Sheridan ‏@sheridanhoops 57s BTW, check out our last Mock. Draft guru, @Probballdraft, believes #Cavs will trade the pick. GM Griffin just told @ESPNAndyKatz the same.

That's a no-brainer. Pull the trigger now!Midstate01;1630521 wrote:Just saw philly has upped the deal to 3,10, 32, next years 1 and Thad young.

Seriously, this draft is deep, you could get three long term starters and possible stars out of that deal.Benny The Jet;1630530 wrote:That's a no-brainer. Pull the trigger now!

If that Philly offer trade is legit, you've gotta take it.

Philly apparently really wants Wiggins, that's way too much to give up to move up 2 spots in the draft.

If Cleveland was 1 player away I'd agree. But the Cavs have at least 3 question marks on the starting lineup.Commander of Awesome;1630534 wrote:I disagree.

In the NBA, LBJ took a bunch of bums (Wade/Bosh) to the finals. 1 player makes all the difference. Wiggins > a bunch of bench players.HighRoller74;1630536 wrote:If Cleveland was 1 player away I'd agree. But the Cavs have at least 3 question marks on the starting lineup.

Wiggins isn't LeBron.

Not even close, but he has a lot of potential. Parker was more NBA ready.HighRoller74;1630539 wrote:Wiggins isn't LeBron.

david b. thorpe ‏@coachthorpe 36s Don't forget; Irving, Bennett, Wiggins all have all-star talent. Need coaching and structure. But the talent is there.

Wiggins is the pick. Good pick. I'm happy with him.

His defense is even worse than Kyrie. Can't have that at the #1 overall pick.robj55;1630541 wrote:Not even close, but he has a lot of potential. Parker was more NBA ready.

Defense can be coached, Wiggins isn't smooth and doesn't have a natural feel on the offensive end. Not sure he has a killer instinct either to want to be the best player on the floor. Still think he will be very good, a lot of potential.Commander of Awesome;1630545 wrote:His defense is even worse than Kyrie. Can't have that at the #1 overall pick.

Be fun to find out how it all plays out. Wiggins was who I wanted once Embiid was injured, so I'm happy with how it turned out.

Adam Schein ‏@AdamSchein 5m Cavs get it right, taking best player in draft. Imagine that. What a concept! Good work.

He should be very good, not sure if he is that elite franchise changer but he definitely is better than Alonzo Gee lolCommander of Awesome;1630549 wrote:Be fun to find out how it all plays out. Wiggins was who I wanted once Embiid was injured, so I'm happy with how it turned out.
