    I really want to see the Magic win the lottery and draft Parker.

    The reason is I really am a huge fan of Oladipo after Dirk next favourite player and would love to see him run with another wing player. I think Parker would be an awesome scoring option next to Oladipo who can still use his ability to create offensively.

    Also like to see them move Afflalo for a pick as well, maybe Chicago’s mid 1st round pick or for the Grizzlies pick.

     Celtics! Let’s bring that championship back to where it belongs, and maybe get ESPN off LeBron’s dick while we’re at it (maybe have Wiggins block his game-tying three pointer in game 7?)

    Lakers, but only because I am a Lakers fan lol… Honestly, I feel that the Milwaukee Bucks deserve the pick the most. They have the worst record and it is probably the least desirable FA destination, so the draft is the only way they can really get a star.

    I am a Sixers fan and everything I hear they want Wiggins so I am cool with drafting him 1st 2nd or 3rd.

    I wouldnt mind Philly or Orlando getting the pick. For whatever reason I really dont want to see Wiggins play for Milwaukee…Ive never liked the franchise even know they usually try very hard to put a competetive lineup on the floor yet they rarely do.

    Milwaukee. They are a small market team and have trouble attracting big name players to want to play there….

     i wouldnt mind utah winning it and taking parker or like the earlier mentioned boston celtics or orlando magic. i can imagine people crying foul if the pelicans win it and get to keep their top 3 protected pick. but if there was one team in the lotto that can win it no matter how small of a chance? id go with the timberwolves. i think they do deserve a break in the draft.

    Milwauke – Parker would fit in well alongside Antetokounmpo in the front court.
    Orlando – PG – Probably go with Smart. He was last season’s pick, so may as well have him this season.
    Philadelphia – Wiggins – perfect fit for their team philosophy
    Sacramento – Vonleh would be a great complement to DMC
    Utah – Randle makes a lot of sense, but could see a combo-guard like Exum fitting in well, or Embiid to replace the disappointing Kanter.

    (1) Milwauke – Jabari Parker – Would complement Antetokounmpo in the front court
    (2) Philadelphia – Andrew Wiggins
    (3) Boston – Joel Embiid
    (4) Orlando – Marcus Smart – Oladopi did well this year, but don’t see him as a PG. Think he could share duties with Smart in the back-court though.
    (5) Sacramento – Noah Vonleh – A defensive PF to work alongside DMC.
    (6) Utah – Dante Exum – Can cover both Burks & Burke in the back-court
    (7) LA Lakers – Julius Randle – Would make an immediate impact for the Lakers
    (8) Detroit – Doug McDermott (a little high, but I like the fit)
    (9) Cleveland – Rodney Hood – Spacing, shooting and ball-movement. 3 things the Cavs desperately need.
    (10) Denver – Kyle Anderson – A good talent, will cover multiple positions for the Nuggets
    (11) Philadelphia – Zach LaVine (a Wiggins / LaVine wing combo has ridiculous potential)
    (12) Orlando – Tyler Ennis – Reminds me of Nelson. Trade Affalo and have a 3 man rotation of Ennis, Smart & Oladipo
    (13) Minnesota – Gary Harris – Finally a young SG for the Timberwolves!
    (14) Phoenix – Nik Stauskas – Provides height and scoring in the back-court.

    These players all seem to fit with the teams they’re drafted by and none at a totally unreasonable draft position.

     I really like Tyler Ennis with the Magic’s second lottery pick if they can grab Embiid considering they get a top 3 pick and he’s available; I got them taking him with my current mock.  The Magic need to look into drafting players that will grow to replace aging vets like Jameer Nelson and Glen Davis.

      i used to have ennis at orlando’s second lotto pick as well but have swapped him for kyle anderson lately. im just intrigued with orlando going forward with a deffensive back-court of oladipo and afflalo then having anderson play as a point forward type. simillar to how portland would use pippen as their point and have bonzi wells and derek anderson as the back-court.

     I’d personally like to see Milwaukee win the draft as they are a small market team. I’d like Philly to slip no lower than three.

     Detroit or any team that isn’t tanking on purpose. I really dislike the way the NBA draft is formated to reward tanking.

     I want the Knicks to win it and have to send their pick Nuggets and I also want the Nuggets pick to land in the Top 3 as well, sending that pick to the Magic.  That would give the Magic likely 2 Top 5 picks.  That would be fanastic for them and fun to see who they would pick to grow with Oladipo.  Makes me think of the Durant/Jeff Green situation.

     The magic. It really feels like they aren’t losing on purpose, and already have a lot of talented players. Plus the east could use all the help it can get.

    The Bucks deserve it the most based on them being a terrible destination for free agents.  

    But the way that the 76ers and the Bucks have been blatantly tanking, I would love to see both of them get shunned by the basketball gods by teams who give good effort and really try to win, they just have no players…  The Celtics and the Lakers.  Obviously I am  Laker fan so that plays a part but they try hard every game…. Just not enough talent.

     

    The 76ers have opporated under the assumption that they will get a top pick.  And I would love for it to backfire on them if only as a counter to the whole "tanking is the only way to go" argument.

    The Bucks. Simply because Wiggins and Giannis on the wing would be the freakiest athletic tandem we have seen in a long time.

    I live near Philadelphia and I’ve went to a few 76ers games so I clearly want them to win the lottery. I’m curious to see if Hinkie drafting MCW was luck or if he’s a really solid talent evaluator.

    I’m a Bucks fan, but even if I didn’t have a hat in the ring, I’d say the Bucks.  As others have said, nobody wants to sign there, so the draft is their only chance.

    Winning the lottery and getting their choice of Wiggins/Embiid would also give them a chance to get interest up enough that they can stay in Milwaukee.
