What happens if Parker and    Joel Embiid decide to return to school and say we have the 3rd pick how does this affect us? How do you think Danny would handle this? What would you do?

I think Danny would call their moms and pay them off to get them into the draft.

I think Danny picks BPA, but first shops the pick to see how it looks. 2015's draft looks pretty awesome as well.

Yes it does i would somehow love to get an extra pick in the 2014  draft as well as the 2015 draft. I think Danny is thinking the same thing as well.

Draft Exum.  Problem solved.

There's still a good chance that all of these highly touted freshmen will declare for the upcoming draft, but it's never been a given. 

I would actually kind of love it if Embiid, Wiggins, and Parker all returned to school (or went on a Mormon mission) next year as a form of protest against NBA tanking.

As I mentioned in another thread, 2025 is looking fairly stacked as well.

The likelihood of any of them staying in school, barring a massive trauma like an injury, is about as likely as this:

At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

I wouldn't be shocked if Embiid and Parker went back for another year.  If that is the case, next year's draft is gonna be one for the ages.  And if I were a betting man I'd guess that we are gonna be looking at 50+ losses again next year, so we should be in prime drafting position again.  Ainge and co. picked a fantastic time to bottom out.
