the draft is always a crap shoot. its enjoyable to watch just to see teams try and find a fit or make trades to benefit them in the future. and its always nice to see kids realize their dreams.
my problem with the draft is they are so thin with talent. the avg 1st rd age has to be 19? hard to tell if a 19 yr old is gonna end up being a contributor. ie Devon Booker, Tyus Jones.
Fixed.evan turner was a bust of a #2 pick. If Sixers GMs werent crazy i would like to think he would have gone #2 that year.
What's the point of drafting a European that is under contract when the buyout is more than you are allowed to pay per the CBA?
I read yesterday that the 6ers have Saric's rights for 3 years. If he opts out of Europe in 2016, he can sign a deal with the CoP that is not restricted to the rookie pay scale (that's interesting). Or he can wait until 2017 and re-enter the draft.
What's extra frustrating about the Turner pick is he was the "safe" pick because he wasn't 19. He didn't have the upside, but Philly talk radio loved that he'd be able to step in immediately. Nah - you gotta swing for the fences
Turners whole thing was he wanted to be the PG not the SG, but Holiday was better at PG. maybe the sixers should have done their due diligence on Turner.
I'm pretty sure they own his rights for three years after his Euto contract expires.
Nah. Only a year.
Hilllard will go top 50. Book it.If they aren't able to trade some of their 2nd rounders, I'm going to go out there and say Darrun Hilliard is the 60th pick in the draft.
I can think of a few 76ers recently who didn't play anywhere for one year...But he would have to not play anywhere for that one year. Very unlikely. Can we cite one example of this ever happening?
tjc over here.That would be nice adp. I saw the pay board thread but not sure I buy it.
I hope he gets a shot. He seems like an awesome kid

Could he run the point center for the 76ers? Projected lineup:Love is opting out. Free agent this summer.
