Philly has their own, but then after that the Lakers if it's not in the top 3(highly unlikely), Heat(right now #23), and Thunder(#27). 23 and 27 wouldn't be anywhere close enough to move up enough to get him.... So really don't see them as a factor.

They have like 7 or 8 2nd round picks that Hinkie sooooo loved to collect plus their own 2nd round picks, not to mention their future 1st round picks. If they don't get Simmons or Ingram I can easily see them sliding back a little and picking up some assets to flip. There's NO DOUBT about it, the Sixers are GOING to be BIG TIME players in this years draft. Colangelo won't allow them not to be. You really just love to argue don't you?

2nd rd picks are pretty much worthless. Teams deal them so they don't get players with those picks and take cap room.. You aren't going to package 23/27/and 5 2nd rd picks and move into the top 10. You might get into the 13-14 range- but that's just about it.

It's more interesting what you said if they don't get a top 2 pick what they do. If they fall to 4 or 5, they may take Dunn there. Or may trade down to pick up more assets like you said.

I'm not going to argue with a troll who's ONLY point of being on this board is to start arguments, you must have a sad and pathetic life. Hinkie collected assets for future use(lots of them), it was pretty much the only thing he was good for, besides pissing off agents. Go google Sixer draft picks see what I'm talking about you troll.

Um, I just looked. They have 1 2nd round pick this year- #36 currently- Nuggets pick They really don't have much this season to deal.

after simmons there's really not much separation. I can see dunn going as high as 2 and also dropping to 9 or 10 but not out of top 10. he's got a lot going for him in this draft. he's regarded as #1 pg. he's coachable and plays hard. NBA is becoming more and more guard driven.

I agree with you about the guards. Just a lot of these bad teams already have their PG of the future.

I just think Dunn goes 7-8 when all is finished.

so really no. They don't have the assets to move way up this year......


In the next 5 drafts they have NINE 1st rounders and 13 second round picks. They also have the NBA rights to Dario Saric who would be a top 5 pick in this years draft if he was in it. They could also trade Joel Embiid, Nerlens Noel, Jahlil Okafor or anyone else on their current roster. So I'd say they have more than enough assets to move up more than once, EASILY. Will they?, who knows? In all my years of watching the draft I've seen teams with less move way up the board. So for you to sit there and pretend they don't have the resources or motivation to be BIG players in this years draft makes me seriously question your judgement.

I'm done with this, the Sixers are in no way worth anymore of my time until they stop f#cking up.
