Following potential 2014 draftees

Embiid may not be as dominant as Hakeem (at least offensively), but he seems able to do the things Patrick Ewing did. I think he's a lock to be an All Star center.

Burke + Hayward + 3/D player + Favors/Kanter + Embiid = championship contender.

Wiggins, Parker or Embiid added to the current roster would make the Jazz contenders.

or

Burke, wiggns, Hayward, favors, embiid

Realistically, I don't think anyone is going to give up a top-5 or top-6 pick in this draft, unless they're getting back a 1st-team All NBA player.

My thought has been 3-way trade Miami-Cleveland-Utah. We pickup Embiid from Cleveland. Lebron goes home. Utah gives up ???? to make it happen?

His son was finally aggressive and had a decent game...

Sadly, Michigan is just ok without the leadership of Burke. Ahh the good ol' days.

He didn't improve his long range shooting! I don't think he deserves any top10 mentions. Consistency is a big issue right now.

Well his only 19 playing in a pro league, but yeah the outside shooting is the big thing holding him back from being in the 6-8 range. I am wondering at 19 how good of a 3 point shooter Mirotic was.

In Mirotic's age 19/20 season he did 41.2% on threes in 29 regular season games in the Spanish ACB. His playoff production dropped a little. He posted 6.6 points per game on 39% long range shooting in the Euro League.
I really like Saric, but I don't think a turnover prone point forward without a reliable long range shot is worth a top10 pick in this draft. There's less risky picks with a similar ceiling when you factor in overall production imo.

You can see a summary here how he performed in each year. I'm a big fan of Mirotic and I'd be super thrilled to have him in Utah.
