and you wonder why the Bucks have been irrelevant for so many years now.

Hard this time of the year to really rely on repots for accurate information. NBA mangers love a smoke screen to hide the player they really want.

If does make somewhat sense considering it is the Bucks and they already have the greek freak, so SF isn’t an urgent need on a bad team. Still need to take BPA in a draft like this.

 If they decided that they wanted Exum then they could trade down to 4 to get him. Orlando may trade you 4 and 12 to be able to take Wiggins. 

As a Sixers fan I would hate to see that happen, but if I were the Bucks and the Magic I would make that deal. Only if the Bucks want Exum that is. 

They probably in the end can’t pass up Parker or Wiggins and I am really starting to think that they will take Parker. He just makes too much sense for them. A guaranteed star that will have no problem spending his career in Milwaukee.

The Sixers would be thrilled to have Wiggins.

Exum and Giannis as a one-two punch could be pretty special down the road. 

Hammond is on the hot seat and to pass on Embiid Wiggins or Parker this year is risky. With his job on the line I think they go with "most ready" prospect in Parker, despite that for the most part he plays the same position as Giannis. Exum would be a the better fit along with Giannis, especially if they keep Knight, where all 3 of those players can handle ball handling duties and are playmakers. If Larry Sanders can keep it together……

PG- Exum SG- Knight SF- Giannis PF- Henson C- Sanders

Four incredible defensive players with incredible length. As stated early, 3 versatile playmakers who can handle and score. Add Nate Wolters (If you want to get crazy start Nate and bring Knight off the bench. He is a true point and I tend to agree with Fran Fraschilla that Exum is a SG. Never going to happen but I love Nate Wolters just a little bit). Bucks have several picks in the several picks in the deep draft that they could add shooters and some players with bulk. Jarnell Stokes, Birch, Patric Young, CJ Wilcox, McCrae, Jabari Brown, Dwight Powell all come to mind for them.

As per last season, burried at the end of the benchor in the dog house. Nate wolters were taking the minutes he was expected to play and after the deadline, ramon sessions was getting more pt as well. 

I honstly dont get whats the problem of pairing parker with giannis. I dont see the point of saying the play the same position when greek freak played a lot of 2 guard this past season next to khris middleton. He was able to play well in that position due to his ball handling skills and was a playmaker 2 T that next to the score first point, brandon knight

It’s either pure genuis or a horrible decision. 

Same could be said about drafting Greek Freak last year but they hit on that pick…so I’m actually prepared to give the Bucks another shot at identifying talent from a small sample size.

work perfect for the bucks if they want Parker. Clv takes Embiid, Mil drafts Exum for Orlando, Philly takes Wiggins and Parker falls to the Bucks who walk away with the guy they wanted plus something extra from Orlando. Probably can’t work since Milwaukee is a bad-luck franchise. Maybe can’t work for the Sixers either for the same reason.

It would leave the 76ers with the pick of their dreams in Wiggins or Parker (I still think Parker is their guy when the smoke settles)

 I don’t mind the Bucks taking Exum #2. It’s arguable that he’s on the first tier of talent for the draft, and even if not he’s a guy almost everyone considers to be the #4 best player available. Plus the Sixers may take him at #3. To me that says taking him second isn’t a reach. 

While I haven’t seen enough of him personally to judge his game, he appears to be a potential All Star point guard, and the Bucks can use a point guard. Embiid would fit there but even if he’s available there are health concerns and they may not get to see his medicals. Wiggins is very similar athletically and positionally to Giannis, and Parker has defensive questions.

 As a Bucks fan, I expect (assuming Embiid goes first) that we will go with Jabari or Wiggins. I don’t think it’s an "NBA ready" kinda thing. Hammond is not going to make the choice. The owners have already said that he will report to them and then they will decide on that first pick. One owner loves Jabari. The other loves Wiggins. Hammond loves Exum, but it will be one of the other two guys.
