plax David Blatt hired. Not sure who he is, but he coached Russia in the Olympics. The best coach in Europe and people say he is one of the best coaches in the world. He is a Pop-lite kind of guy. I am excited to see his high-tempo offense, will bode great for Kyrie and Dion.

plaxSo with Embiid definitely out of the pic, do you think it will be Parker or Wiggins? I think Wiggins should be the pick. Either way, this is bad for the Sixer's who may have to settle for Exum.

I personally think Parker will be the pick. He is the "safe" pick and an offensive trio of Kyrie/Dion/Parker is possibly one of the best in the league. Parker can come in and score almost 20 a night right out of the gate. And Blatt is an offensive oriented guy that uses a lot of ball movement, so having a guy at the 3 who score from anywhere and pass the ball is great. And yeah, the Embiid news is terrible for Philly. Everyone expected Embiid to CLE, Parker to MIL, and PHI snagging Wiggins at 3. With Embiid in doubt, Philly might get desperate and package a deal for the #1 to get their guy.

And now there are rumors of CLE/BKN discussing a Jack/Thorton swap, which is great for CLE too if it happens. Jack is simply not a fit in CLE and is making 6+ million for a few more years. Thorton is an expiring and can shoot lights out.
Additionally, getting an expiring almost definitely foreshadows a bigger move to be made. For who, I am not sure, but it definitely is just more than a simple 1 for 1 swap for CLE.

Melo opts out. Bulls are the most likely landing spot with a sign-and-trade deal that would send Carlos Boozer and one of their 1st Round Picks to New York. They would also likely have to trade Taj Gibson and someone else to clear up Cap Space.

The word on the street here is that we will amnesty Boozer and will look to get rid of Dunleavy before Taj and Jimmy Buckets. We're also looking at getting Affalo from the Magic
