The Sixers have no loyalty to me as a fan. I've been hanging by a thin thread for years, but right about now, enough is enough. That franchise is a albatross. The only good they've done in 20 years was draft Allen Iverson and hire Larry Brown. Everything else has been a grade C or lower


The Sixers don't owe you anything.

We pretty much addressed our three major needs tonight.

A back up point guard.
A wing with deep range.
A super high ceiling prospect.

Hell of a draft for us. Will be even better if 1 or 2 of those 3 really pan out.

(I'd say all three but that would just be greedy)

cho pretty much crushed this draft - he gets vonleh, who we had ranked #5 on the big board and hairston who we had ranked #21. he added depth to the frontcourt and got us a great 3pt shooter. he also got us a 3rd string pg. he added a future 2nd round pick. and the icing on the cake, he cleared 2 mil in cap space by dumping haywood on the cavs.

A+

Lol oh hush up. Your franchise has actually won titles and had elite players. Stop being a pansy and support your team for Christ sake. Don't act like one of those Heat fans :banghead:


My only loyalty to the Sixers was Allen Iverson and the fact that they're my hometown. I wasn't really lively aware for the Julius Erving years, was mad when they traded Charles Barkley away, and even madder when they traded Iverson away. They haven't won no titles in my existence, so they don't count

Giving this a B+

A+ for Vonleh
B for Hairston
D- for trading Napier to Miami
B- for Backwards James
C- for not trading anyone
C for trading 45 and Haywood for cap

I love the Vonleh pick, but everything else was underwhelming.

i dont blame MrKIA for being pissed. why should their fans waste money and time following this team over the next 2 years? have have absolutely zero intentions of trying to win any time soon. why not just forfeit the season and save everyone time and money.
