Uhg, What a waste. Cameron Johnson won't be able to do a darn thing better than Furkan Korkmaz and he's 2 years older than Korkmaz.

feels like a tall isaiah canaan to me... i would pray cam's length within the system make a huge difference between the two.
we already need a backup five who can anchor the second unit and be a spot starter. acquiring dedmon, bryant, nerlens, or whomever would be even more important if we were to draft cam johnson.

Big 76ers and UNC fan, Cam is a really nice player I'm in shock people have him rated so high in mocks. Honestly I won't be happy if we pick him at 24. He's just a solid 4 year college player. Good kid plays with effort . To me there's nothing special about his game that sets him apart you can say his shooting but he was kind of an up and down player. Never felt like he was great coming off screens and he's not gonna beat u off the dribble. Gives effort on defense but he's not that gritty tough guy. I think he's a poor man's Justin Jackson another UNC alum who Sacramento picked 2 years ago.

Actually if you ask me which Center I want for my perfect championship caliber team, I will chose Asik hands down

the front office talking about wanting seasoned players definitely brings terance davis to the fore. my only concern is a logjam between zhaire, shake and davis. do you think davis can be a lead ballhandler?

After doing entire intro and props about how Sixers have NO ONE ON THE ROSTER outside of Embiid and SImmons from the rotation last year, Billy King says he loves the pick because Sixers love centers shooting threes like with Boban and it would just be fun to have Bol Bol and Boban playing together. Their other analyst said he loves the pick b/c it would just be such a cool story having his dad start his career with the same team. UGH. These morons get paid millions to be on TV???
SMH.
Just keep being you Billy, dumb as bricks. It is embrassing when you are the league's flagship station and should have pick of the litter for analysis and you hire freaking Billy King to give analysis.

There's no way Bol falls to #24. If he does we should snatch him for sure. Could be the center backup we have desperately needed.
