7 MIN
8 NYK
9 DAL
10 SAC

Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

6. Orlando Dennis Smith Jr.
7. Minnesota Jonathan Isaac
8. New York Frank Ntilinka
9. Dallas Malik Monk
10. Sacramento Justin Jackson(based on need)

Philly should take an extremely long look at Malik Monk

Ditto. Jackson is the leader but there are arguments for Isaac and Tatum.

Fans around the league are kind of shook about us landing Josh Jackson, I've noticed.

Embiid/Simmons/Jackson

Each one of those guys is a potential championship Big 3 piece. All three of them together is a daunting sight.

Most of the people who run mock drafts don't see that because I mainly see Tatum or Fox or Monk at 3. I know whatever they say means nothing in the grand scheme of things but it's surprising to me that I don't see more of them saying Jackson will come to Philly.

Not with a top ten pick they shouldn't.

I've noticed there are a lot of other fan bases who think the Sixers aren't taking Jackson because of the lack of shooting between he and Ben.

I have no posts/threads specifically noted. Just comments I've read in passing. There's a contingency on each the Celtics, Lakers and Suns boards that acknowledge Jackson as the best player in this draft and are annoyed about us potentially having Embiid, Simmons and him together, going forward.

That's what free agency and trades are for.

So you don't think he's worthy a top ten pick? So who's your preference?

At 3 if they keep that pick? Josh Jackson.

No, I don't. A one dimensional shooter is not a top 10 pick IMO. Aim higher.

Devin Booker had a similar scouting report from many a couple years ago.

And he might be the most overrated player in the league.

If Monk was 6'6" I think he'd be a bit higher regarded.
