We all know that Dennis Lindsey is a wheeler and dealer and will be active in trying to make a move up. Who do we think he is realistically trying to target in his attempts to move up?
If DL is targeting a deal with Milwaukee, I think it is to get Embiid. If DL cannot swing a deal for #2, then I think he is trying to get the #3 slot targeting the best player available which would be Parker.

- Cleveland - Wiggins: I think the #1 pick is very difficult for Utah to get. I think Cleveland needs to make a big move. They may trade to get a big time name veteran but I think they are going to keep the pick and I think Wiggins is the player. Cleveland botched last years pick with an apparent bust in Bennett. Wiggins has the hype to potentially be "the next big thing." I think they are going to go Wiggins. They can't afford the bad PR with a poor pick this time around.
- Milwaukee - Pick is Available?: I think a deal can be done here. I think Utah could be trying to target this pick. Who would DL select if Wiggins is gone and he is able to trade up to this slot? Embiid or Parker?
- Philadelphia - Parker: I think Embiid will go #2 if Milwaukee keeps the pick. This would make Parker avaialble at the #3 slot.
