Why?
Was never truly a fan of Kyrie, but at this point I wish him the best of luck just to shut some of the idiots up.
As a fan of the team with the 2nd pick, I hope they take Wiggins. But in all objectivity, Cleveland is going to be a great team down the road with Embiid. Kyrie, Dion, and Embiid is a terrific young core, and having other young pieces like Tristan, Karasev, Zeller, Delladova, etc. as a developing supporting cast is very promising. I think if they really hit out of the park with this next coaching selection, they could be an elite team in 4-5 years.
By that time hopefully Kyrie has matured as a point guard, Dion and him build some better chemistry in the backcourt, all the young supporting players grow into their roles, and Embiid has developed into a legitimate 2-way force in the paint. This team in 5 years has the potential to bust completely and break up....or be contending with one of the best if not THE best center in the game, a top 5 PG, and a top 5 SG.
The Lebron curse. Cleveland will never succeed until Lebron retires/rejoins the cavs.

Hmmmm, not really LeBron related, but the whole city of Cleveland was having a 50+ year drought of not succeeding before he was drafted. :lol
They don't have a hard choice to make. They got 3 players that should all have an immediate impact

Neither team makes that trade.
Well I'm pretty certain Kyrie can't get out of the lottery with a slew of top picks and a coach who's been to the Finals. So that's pretty solid.
I don
After the draft,the cavs should go after every vet in the league to mentor all theses youngs kids
This year the team was too young with only Jaret Jack, Deng and Varejao as 27+ years old and they are the not guys who won the most rings in the league...
[QUOTE=Springsteen]NO NO NO NO NO
you already have kyrie dion and [B]tristan thompson [/B][B]to be major ball handlers/jack up shots[/B] and you want to add ANOTHER? GET A FREAKING POST PRESENCE FOR KYRIE TO PASS TO YOU FOOLS[/QUOTE]
:biggums:
[QUOTE=Jailblazers7]They are either going to take Embiid or trade the pick.[/QUOTE]
what makes you say so? they have a gaping hole at the 3. their defense was awful last year, wiggins could help that big time, and parker could provide low post scoring and 3 point shooting, two things the cavs desperately lacked last year
any of the top 3 would really help us, but embiid, so long as hes healthy, is the clear number 1 imo
[QUOTE=Uncle Drew]Chad Ford ✔ @chadfordinsider
Just spoke with Embiid. [B]Told me his back is 100 percent[/B]. Been working out hard for last 3 weeks.
[/QUOTE]
i love embiid, but come on, what else is he going to say?
[QUOTE=Le Shaqtus]Never been fond of Irving to be honest, and he hasn't really made their situation any different which is what a #1 pick is supposed to do.[/QUOTE]
so who would you have picked instead?
[QUOTE=DeuceWallaces]He's never made the playoffs in one of the most absolute historically weak conferences in the history of the NBA after three years of top 4 picks, and a coach and center who's either been to the finals or won it. [/QUOTE]
you cant shit on the cleveland front office for messing up picks, AND say kyrie should be taking this team further because he has had teammates picked high in the draft.
his teammates suck or they dont, you cant shit on both the FO and kyrie. it makes zero sense.
