In my opinion 3 players who mainly rely on step back jumpshots after a number of dribbles as the main offensive go-to cannot form a successful team. Especially if they’re all main players for the team. Dion, Kyrie and Jabari would be a disaster and the roster would get blown up after a year or so. Everyone talks about Upside as the reason Embiid and Wiggins are in play at 1 for the cavs, and while it is obviously important – the upside of what they can become is also highly compatible with those two players. efficient moves with minimal dribbles and ability to draw second defenders even with out having super polished games yet. This is perfect either in the post with joel or the wing with Wiggins to match with the pick n roll roll potential with Dion and kyrie with Tristan or Bennett as the screener.

Embiid or Wiggins will make Cleveland a better team with the current roster they have, than a maxed out Jabari ever will.

*this obviously doesnt take into account Joels injuries…

I hope he doesn’t. I really like him, but I think if there’s one team that can screw things up with him, that’s Cleveland. By the way I’m reading that Cavs and Bucks exchanged medical reports they did on respectively Embiid and Parker. So apparently teams wanted at least to know more on Parker’s health (I’m thinking about the injury he had in high school). Not to say he’s going to slip or whatever, I’m just surprised, I thought everyone assumed he’s okay and didn’t need any particular examination.
