What If The Cleveland Cavaliers Drafted Joel Embiid?

“What If?”

It’s one of the most fun, interesting and intriguing questions in sports. Every fan wants to play arm-chair general manager and second guess move after move, retrospectively wondering: what if we had signed the other guy instead or what if we had drafted that stud instead of the bust we ultimately picked?

On the surface, it’s a fun exercise that, so often leads to debate amongst friends with strong opinions about the NBA and their respective teams. But, dig a little deeper and these conversations become a lot more interesting. There’s still the discussion about the initial decision but, in any professional sports league, and specifically the NBA, one decision sends ripple effects throughout the entire league.
