    in a way ... you guys are kind of like the oilers ... drafting forwards and no d or in this case guards ... you guys drafted a bunch of FCs over the past 3 years ... something's gotta give ... can't play noel, saric, embiid and okafor at the same time ...

    And they won't. They have been drafting best player available in hopes one of them turns into a star. Just so happens they are all big men. Next season is when you will finally have all these pieces on the floor together. The ones that fit will stay. The ones that don't will get traded for better fits.
    i just think you have to be concerned with the ability to develop all the guys without the minutes available - especially with the stretch 4 being the "in thing" now ... and then when you do ultimately find a core of guys - how long will you be able to control them salary and free agency wise?

    True. But I think those would be good problems to have.

    As expected---

    http://www.libertyballers.com/2016/4/24/11498382/report-saric-informed-anadolu-efes-teammates-hes-leaving-for-philly

    It's always been about the summer of 2016 for Dario Saric and the Sixers. Sam Hinkie sat at the podium at his post-2014 NBA Draft presser and declared it'd be two years at the earliest before Saric would arrive in Philadelphia, having just signed a three-year deal with an out after year two with the BSL's Anadolu Efes. Saric obliged, hoping to develop his game a bit overseas for two years before making the jump to the big leagues. He'd said multiple times throughout this season that this summer would be the time to make the move, and it appears he's kept his word.

    According to reporter David Pick, Saric has informed his teammates he's leaving Europe and heading to the United States to join the Sixers this summer:



    This is a major win for the organization. Saric had the power to play through the third and final season on his contract, come to Philadelphia in 2017 and free himself of rookie scale salary restrictions to negotiate a fresh deal under a spiked salary cap. That he's keeping his word is great news; that it appears he's really coming over this summer saves the team millions in future cap flexibility.

    It was a brutal year for Sixers fans but brighter days are ahead. One part courage, two parts patience, all parts cultish.

    the liberty ballers billboard on 95 is glorious. I hope the colangelos, harris, and the rest of the ownership team drive by it every day.

    tomorrow is the big night.

    I'm obviously hoping for the 1 or 2 pick. I think best case is the lakers ending up at 3 so their pick carries over to next season.

    No more tanking. First pick. Bunch of young beasts joining the roster this year. Two first round picks coming in both 2017 and 2018 drafts. Things are about to get really fun around here. All thanks to Sam Hinkie. Party time as long as the Colangelos don't fuck this up.

    Also, I love that the celtics ended up with the third pick in a two player draft. Glorious!
