Offer to Cavs for #1 is to draft Wiggins not Parker

I posted this Cavs, Wolves, & Jazz Manaj on Realgm board and it seems like a good trade for everyone involved and so far people seem to be on board. I think its great. Thoughts?

Would still be iffy if Love would resign with the Cavs. Favors and Irving make them better than Minny, but still inferior to the Warriors and Bulls teams who have offered nice packages to Minny.
 
Who did he confirm with? This just does not sound very Jazz to me. Id hate to give up Favors, but for Wiggins I can get on board as long as this is a whole reboot. We have alot of pieces that do not fit.

This.



Favors is OK at best as the Center. We really need someone with true length to bother the shot - ala Gobert. But I don't know - I still question Wiggins' drive and #Hunger.

I saw the one GSW offer that included Thompson, but i dont think thats better than the #5 and two #1s. I guess it depends if they think Klay is worth more than the 5th in this draft, but i dont. I want guys that can play defense and my understanding is he's atrocious at defense. Awesome shooter, but does he get his team invovled? i dont know, I like the guy, but hes a one trick pony isnt he? is he a good passer? not from what i understand.

Didnt see the Bulls offer.
 
I dunno... I like the Favors / Sanders swap & #2 and #5 swap with the Bucks more...


Burke
Hayward
Parker
Kanter
Sanders


I can live with that. Holy **** I can live with that!!!!!

I'm more on board with the #1 cus I want Wiggins a lot more than Parker, but yeah that deal is a good 2nd option.

My concern is without Favors our frontline would be really bare next year - unless the plan was to 'tank 1 more year' all along...



Then we go get Okafor next year... HAHAHAHAHAHA
 
Yeah, but the thing is, he is a physical marvel.
word

wiggins is a physical speciman in his own right along the lines of durant, lebron.

IF wiggins gets its together attitude wise and gets a little better handle (both achieveable imo) then he will be a freak of nature the likes of which come along once a generation.

the hops, speed, length, stride, quickness are off the charts.

just needs some #hunger and some ball handling skills and he is one of the top players in the league.
 
He played very well last season. He does things only a handful of people on the planet can do.

So even if he's "probably" gonna be great, that's not worth giving up Favors? I think it's safe to assume Favors is far less likely to be great at this point.

I think you underestimate Favors. Wiggins is a bet. Maybe a great one. But I'm not sure I throw in Favors to bet on him. In this draft, Favors would go top 5 easy. So you're saying Wiggins is worth the 1 and the 5 to draft him. It might be true, but I'm not sure I believe in that.

Which is why Cavs would be crazy not to take Wiggins #1.
Also if Blatt is new coach for Cavs can't see him agreeing to trade away the #1 pick.
Imagine what he could do for Wiggins.

I have been pimping Jabari Parker all year, but I didn't realize how bad Parker's defense was and how fat he is.

I am on board with Wiggins. Wiggins is a FOR SURE starter who can be effective in the game no matter what. his offense if it develops he becomes a star. If it doesn't.......He is a impact player in a lot of different areas.
Parker can't play defense and he isn't super fast. So I see him being an amazing scorer and not much else. Or he could flop and be a decent scorer and not much else.

I see more risk with Parker right now.

As a freshmen out of Georgia tech no he would not went top 5 in this draft? come on bro.

As crazy it would be for the Jazz to not make a play for Wiggins, it would be bat**** crazy for the Cavs to not make a play for LeBron. For the Cavs to make a play on LeBron, they need to be in a win now mode. Wiggins doesn't give them that. Favors does.
 
He looks the part, yes. But Durant destroyed college. Lebron didn't get the chance, but I would have bet he would. Wiggins got the chance, and didn't destroy college.

I just feel like sure fire #1 picks should destroy college. He probably will be great, but I'm not sure "probably" makes giving up Favors worth it.

Durant was the man at Texas. Wiggins had to share the ball with a lot of talent players.

Sanders is a better rim protector then favors and if Gobert is his sub then we have 48minutes of great rim protection...

Kanter and Parker provide the offense and burks and Hayward are average to above average on wing defense!!!

I like this team we could also offer to take on OJ mayo for some outside shooting!!
