2011 NBA Draft Sixers Thread

Email
PrintWith the Draft set to begin in a half hour and the ESPN crew pulling out all the tricks so they can pretend they know all about Davis Bertans and Giorgi Shermadini, it's high time for an NBA Draft Thread up in this joint. So here she is. The Sixers have picks 16 and 50 and could be looking to move up or down depending on who you've talked to and how recently you talked to them.
The Pimp Your Prospect choices and draft order are after the jump and will be updated as each pick comes in. Any news, notes, guess, rumor, trade inkling, whiff, or piss into the wind - you can go ahead and post that in the comments. Or basically anything you'd like to discuss. Refresh yourself on everything that's gone up on the site the past few days but leave some time because there's a lot. Most importantly, here's the LB Big Board to check who the Sixers should be targeting if they stay put or move up.
Dive in.

Timberwolves still discussing possible trade package that would send Monta Ellis to MIN for No. 2 pick, sources say.
Ew.

OK...
…what’s the over/under on a Dre trade happening tonight? :)
I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, there will be no trade for Monta!
0% chance. He dies a Sixer.
"You can commit no mistake and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life." - Jean-Luc Picard
That’s what I’m feeling, too. But, y’know, I’m kinda OK with that. We don’t really know if Minnesota was going to give up the #2 for Dre, and I didn’t like any of the other deals available. Also, now there’s no deal with Sacramento for the #7 to be had.
Not to mention, the ownership situation clouds the landscape. I don’t expect they are going to allow a major trade like this to go down (I understand they have final veto power on any trades) unless it’s a no-brainer.
I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, there will be no trade for Monta!
I put it at 20%

Hey folks!
"They say that nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes perfect. I wish they'd make up their minds." - Wilt Chamberlain
With all that went down with the Flyers today, the Sixers doing nothing is a real downer for me. :( (I’m not a hockey fan)
"They say that nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes perfect. I wish they'd make up their minds." - Wilt Chamberlain
same, I tried getting all giddy over the trade since it was supposedly a big deal, but I had no clue who the guy who got traded was. =’[
by Dan Deathcore on Jun 23, 2011 4:23 PM PDT up reply actions
Yeah, but if the Flyers suck total butt next year, you’ll be much happier :)
I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, there will be no trade for Monta!
Eh, while I’m not a hockey fan, I still support Philly teams. I won’t be mad or disappointed as many of my friends will be, however, if they do suck.
"They say that nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes perfect. I wish they'd make up their minds." - Wilt Chamberlain
That wasn’t what I meant. What I meant was, yeah, the Flyers are blowing apart a first-place team to do what they think they need to to win the ‘ship, but if they suck, you’ll be glad the Sixers stood pat.
I have no feelings about the Flyers in particular…I’d vaguely prefer they win, but I’m not a hockey guy.
I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, there will be no trade for Monta!
Eh, the sixers are arguably the most successful of all the philly teams. Its just a product of the era that they are the 4th string right now. I don’t care, I’ll be a fan no matter what.
"They say that nobody is perfect. Then they tell you practice makes perfect. I wish they'd make up their minds." - Wilt Chamberlain
I would argue that the Phillies are the most successful. I think their recent run and their run in the late 70’s puts them over the top. Not much to write home about in between (and before the late 70’s) though.
And remember, the Phillies are the losingest franchise all-time in professional sports.
I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, there will be no trade for Monta!
The Flyers have been in the Stanley Cup Finals eight times, winning twice. The most Finals appearances of any Philly team.

Because he’s 19-years old and playing against players much older than him. He’s not able to have a post game until he bulks up and he’s yet to develop a jumper, though his high F% gives people hope that he can develop one.

not a rumor, but I can’t believe Cleveland was never mentioned as a trade partner now that they have 4 PFs, 3 PGs and not a single SF . . . you know Snyder would love to have Iguodala
They were mentioned as having offered their trade exception for Iguodala.

Lots of shooting guards.
I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, there will be no trade for Monta!
There isn’t a player left worth trading up for. Whoever gets taken at 11 will have as much value as what’s left at 16.

I have potentially horribly disturbing news...
In an all-out attempt to find out who Jan Vesely’s girlfriend is, I stumbled onto his Wikipedia page. href=“http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Veselý” target="new"> If you scroll down to the “Personal life” section, you’ll find a passage that reads, “Vesely’s younger sister is his girlfriend Eva”. His younger sister IS HIS GIRLFRIEND! Does that read as weird to you?
Potentially creepy, but probably a typo of some sort.

Markieff has a position. Marcus doesn’t have a good enough shot to be a SF and he’s not quite big enough to be a PF.

The sixers are like the guy on the football team with
the visor, under armor sleeves, and taped cleats. Just looks good and should be good, but for some reason he finds ways to suck and never gets to play.

I’m going to do what I always do at this point in the night: read and have a few beers, only tonight, they’ll be tears in those beers. Here’s to waking up to fantastic trade news, aye.

anybody think we should trade back into the first round to get hamilton?

Could possibly buy a pick from someone who is willing to sell. Or trade Lou.
Neither are likely.

I would not trade next year’s first for a chance at Hamilton. Better draft and a good chance (if they trade Iguodala) to be lottery.

agreed, definitely don’t give up next years first but this seems like such a good opportunity to get hamilton with him slipping this far

The incoming freshman class is pretty good plus there were 4 or 5 players that pulled out of this year’s draft that should come out next year.

We’re getting outdrafted by David Kahn.

I didn’t think the Wolves 2 and I think they drafted yet another wing with their second first? It’s better compared to ours though

They’ve also accumulated two future picks by trading down.

So because he was able to trade down for two future picks
David Kahn is a better GM than Rod Thorn. Sound logic.
