IF our pick is in the top 3, would you trade it?

...I would.

If we could deal a potential, future franchise player but one who may/may not pan out for an established veteran, I say make the move.

Maybe Minnesota takes it in a package for Kevin Love, maybe Memphis for Marc Gasol, maybe to Portland for LMA or Chicago for Joakim Noah...

Would you deal the pick if it was in the top 3 and which player is the most realistic trade target?

Probably not.
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.

Doubt that I would, especially if Embiid.  But I suspect that Danny would, especially if he could land Kevin Love or Aldridge.

Yes! Only for Love or Memo, and that's only assuming we have cap space for 1 more large Dominoe like a Lebron. Melo or Love with no wiggle room to get better we might as well keep the young Wiggins/Embiid or Parker.

2 or 3 I'd do it for a guy like Kevin Love if we could get him signed long term (can't with the current CBA)

I'd keep Embid.

I would be mad if we traded a top 3 pick for Noah.

Outside of Lebron, Durant, Anthony Davis, Paul George, Love maybe ( he is very weak on defense...)

No, not right now at least .


Embiid's potential through the roof . He has great footwork in the low post on offense, a very good passer out of the double team already , looks very smooth taking the 18 ft J, and is Dominate on defense with his ability to guard the pick and role and be an rim protector .

Parker is almost a lock to be a 5x all-star at least. Melo/PP clone , but bigger and a better rebounder.

Wiggins athleticism and potential also make him possible franchise player .
 

Not sold on Exum , who can be when he hasn't played any real competition on a consistent basis.

Nope. If you add one of the three and they turn out to be elite. You can still add a max level contract while one of the three is on their rookie contract and end up being a contender for a long time.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon

If Embiid, Wiggins, and Parker all come out? No I wouldn't.

No.

No way. If it is 5th pick and beyond, then sure.

The thing is, if we land one of Wiggins, Parker or Embiid to pair up with Sullinger and Rondo (and a few of our other existing parts) then a guy like Love may be easy to persuade as a FA.

I know a lot of people like Exxum, but I think Randle will go above him and possibly Ennis and others as well. Dante is a huge risk with almost no reliable background to compare. He is a potential mega bust waiting to happen IMHO.

No way I trade the pick unless we are adding Lebron in a sign and trade.
