Why did I waste five hours of my night to watch the blue pick up some bench guys?

I'll see him across the street at the Myriad playing for the Blue. So is he just another glorified Daniel Hamilton :crazy:

Oh really? It’s a shame that like our pick, I know nothing about Dave too.

Woo, still no idea who these guys are. Guess Sam decided he hates upside.

Dave's solid. I don't know his background but I know he's got good opinions, He's one of the guys whose eye test I actually trust.

Sam Hervey? I thought he said Jason Hervey from the Wonder Years.

After the playoffs were over I felt relieved. Tonight is just disappointing.

I would literally be excited to get rawle Alkins now. This was awful.

I feel the same way I felt when I stayed up to watch us get smoked by the kings in Sacramento. Bye Paul. Good night all.

I now understand fully what it's like to be a fan of the also rans, this is reality for a treadmill team with a second rate front office. We'll have middling picks except when we trade them for poor players, slowly bleed talent, AND never maximize what we do have. We're basically the 2012 76ers at this point.

Are you expecting actual good players with 53 and 57?

Reading up on them I can sort of see the logic for each. One dude is a 3 and D guard (always good to have) and one dude showed out at the combine scrimmage. Grading on a curve here after pick 50 but they sort of make sense.
