    Afflalo can opt-out next year if he wants so won't be stopping in Cleveland for too long if he does end up there IMO. That's why I'd be very cautious in doing such a deal if I'm them. You'd have to look at the deal as more likely being one year of Afflalo plus #4 and #12 for #1.

    And now for something different involving Affalo... http://fansided.com/2014/06/26/nba-rumors-magic-trade-arron-afflalo-nuggets-56-pick/

    Nuggets have stolen him for that really. You'd think the Magic must have something else lined up soon.

    Chad Ford is suggesting that teams such as Celtics. Lakers and Kings are ready to pass on Marcus Smart and it is possible that Elfrid Payton has moved ahead of Smart as the 2nd PG in this draft.

    76ers doing as much as they can to move up to #1 to take Wiggins, per the usual sources.

    They will have to come up with something big to convince the cavs to budge from that 1 spot.

    Afflalo going to Denver could have a good knock one effect for teams looking for guards further down the board. I think they might have taken Garry Harris or Nik Stauskas with the 11th pick but not they may focus on another position

    76ers still very high on Wiggins and trying hard to work out a trade with the Cavs. Embiid going done has really messed things up for Philly. Cavs taking Embiid, the consensus best player in the draft, Bucks taking Jabari who imo could be the best player on the board and certainly has the most NBA ready game, the fact that Parker is from around there was another reason. It looked as if Wiggins was going to miracalously fall into the 76ers hands. That obviously won't happen now. Cavs putting it out there that they are strongly considering taking Wiggins has Philly trying everything to move up. This will be interesting.

    There is huge speculation the Jazz are frantically trying to move up from number 5 pick. All team players are available for trades. They will not release who they are trying to pick.

    Things are about to kick off. Staying of this thing to avoid spoilers untill after the draft. Buzzing for this, should be some entertainment.

    Exum come across well in his interview with Isiah Thomas. Top 5 pick all day. No.1 PG, Best international player for years according to experts

    Dario Saric will be drafted but he has signed a contract to play in Turkey so he won't actually come to the NBA for at least 2 years

    Wiggins #1
    Parker #2

    I'd suggest unfollowing Woj, he's spoiling everything on Twitter.

    I wouldn't be disappointed going there if I was him. They're a promising team IMO. Carter-Williams and himself are two nice, young pieces, plenty of cap too.

    Put it this way, I'd much rather end up there than in Cleveland or Milwaukee.

    Was kinda hoping Exum would end up with Philly myself.
