Which NBA players would the Cavs, Bucks, and 76ers trade their pick for?

LeBron James
Kevin Durant

Is that it?

I'd trade the third pick for a lot of other players for sure, even someone like Damien Lillard.

Lillard for Jabari Parker? No thanks. I'll gamble on Parker.

The answer also depends on how long the guy is under contract and would he stay there a few years. If he'd stay a few years, there are a few other guys that could enter the equation.

Could you lock the player up to a 6 yr contract like you can a rookie? If so then a lot

As in trading the pick outright for a player and their current contract?
About a dozen for the #1 pick/Wiggins.
Twice that for #2/Embiid.
About three times that for #3/Parker.

This is insane.

Embiid is a SOLID prospect at Center. There are not 24 players that are worth that.

And give me a break on there being 36 players with futures better than Parker.

This. Do you realize how young some of the stars are in the league?

There are probably 12-15 guys that Cleveland would trade that pick for.

So you think these teams agree to a trade for James Harden tomorrow? I honestly don't. I think he could be better than all three, but I don't think teams can pass up the imaginary ceilings they are giving these guys.

I guess we'll never know for sure, but I find this pretty difficult to believe.
