They have the space to get James and Anthony and adding those two to a team with Carter-Williams and Noel, along with two top ten picks, would instantly make that team the heavy favorite in the East. If Cleveland or Milwaukee takes Embiid, that means Philly could add Parker or Wiggins. If. Parker and Wiggins are gone, Philly would be a great team to take a shot with Embiid cause they could bring him along very slow. Maybe add a guy like McDermott with the 10th pick. What is it that I'm missing with this Philly scenario?

Well, for starters, we're Philadelphia, and $hit like this doesn't happen to us.
I've been saying "why not us" for the Lebron Sweepstakes since MCW emerged onto the scene early on in the season. All I ever hear as an answer is "we're too small of a market" (which grinds my gears).
This truly is a "make or break" moment for the 10,9,8,76ers. We need to walk away from the draft tomorrow (where we have 1/10th of the league's picks) with two studs. I don't care what "they" say, I want one of the top 3 guys with the 3rd overall pick and I would love any of Smart, McDermott, Stauskas, or Gordon with the 2nd first round pick.
Fingers crossed.
