16-17 Sixers Season Thread

[ice grillin you]

he made eleven 2nd round picks

6, 7, 8, 11 can be immediately thrown out as they were draft and stash guys who were never coming over

10, didnt make an nba roster

1, 5 made nba rosters (a feat for a 2nd rounder)

2, dealt to new orleans in the nerlens trade

3, dealt to houston for the pick that got you richaun holmes

4, best pick of the entire 2014 second round

9, best pick of the entire 2015 second round

not dreadful

[ice grillin you]

4, best pick of the entire 2014 second round

traded to okc

[Eagles_Legendz]

Not sure the point of moving him for a forward

[ice grillin you]

hard to question it yet until we know the conditions on the pick

[PhillyPhreak54]

jeez...not sure I like this.

I'll refrain from ripping Colangelo for now

[BigEd76]

Fulfills the roster's Turkey requirement I guess

[PhillyPhreak54]

Someone on WIP is saying protected 1st rounder and that Ilyasova may be waived

[ice grillin you]

hes on an expiring contract so that wouldnt be surprising but either way hes gone after this season....

this was basically to start weeding out the front court log jam and while i liked grant hes has no position in the nba...unless he develops a shot his ceiling is as a deep rotation defensive energy guy off the bench

[PhillyPhreak54]

Bodner says that they did it to improve floor spacing and that they will keep him.

[phattymatty]

i assumed this was going to be about nerlens.

i mean i liked how jerami was beginning to take it to the rim and be less of a spaz but agreed that he wasn't going to be on the team past this year anyway. probably wouldn't get much play once ben gets back anyway.

meh. 1st round pick is nice i guess. and at least ersan can hit the 3 fairly well.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Earliest the Sixers can get the 1st rounder is 2020 because OKC owes one to Utah (lottery protected).

The Sixers pick is top 20 protected.

If it doesn't end up being the 1st under the conditions it then goes to two 2nd rounders

[phattymatty]

so if it's 2 2nds they would be in 2021 and 2022?  or 2022 and 2023?  lol

[ice grillin you]

I wouldn't have made the trade and don't like it but hard to get too upset over jerami grant...illasova is a horrid defender and Jerami one of their only good ones...when jo jo isn't on the court my god are they going to be bad on that end

2022 and 2023 if it is the two seconds.

And agreed on the defense.

Bright side is Saric has a chain smoking jean jacket dude to go clubbing with.

yeah i'm not steaming over it or anything just seems like a strange time. jerami was actually looking better this year. i guess maybe they decided to sell high.

the magic legit stink. it might be ok to say that fournier is their best all around player.
