19-57 Memphis 23-51 Boston 26-58 Milwaukee 27-48 Atlanta 30-44 Portland 30-44 Sacramento 30-44 Philadelphia 30-45 Seattle 30-46 Charlotte 31-43 New York 31-43 Minnesota 32-42 Indiana So basically, as of now, we're hanging around the 7th spot of the draft lottery. Greg Oden or Kevin Durant, assuming they declare, are as good as gone when we pick. I doubt we'll even get someone like Brandan Wright or Al Horford. It's funny, we're only one game away from catching New York in the standings, and 2 games away from catching Indiana. With that being said, playoffs are still a possibility.
We still have a pretty good chance at Horford, actually. Because I see the Suns going with Joakim Noah or Roy Hibbert(if he declares) with their pick, as both would fit their team better.
^What pick do they get? But damn, I thought we were at least in the top 5 pick range, what could be at 7? Then again looking at the records of Portland, Sacramento, etc. who knows where we could land. The lower the better.

The Sixers? There are four teams with worse records then them. The Sixers are also tied with Portland and Sacramento record wise, and Seattle and Charlotte in the wins column. It can go either way. Let's just hope luck is on our side, because it usually isn't
<div class="quote_poster">Apollo Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Anybody ever check out NBADraft.net, it says with the 6th pick we`ll choose Joakim Noah. </div> Who knows? We probably will. This team has basically played it self out of the contention for Greg Oden, which is embarrassing. We came from Greg Oden to Joakim Noah. Luck of a Sixers fan I guess
Instead of waiting to see how a player would turn out you'd rather stop being a fan of the team? Makes a lot of sense...
<div class="quote_poster">A.F. Venom Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Instead of waiting to see how a player would turn out you'd rather stop being a fan of the team?

It would be yet another bad move by management.
I don`t know, I thought Billy King has done a pretty good job in recent seasons when it comes to drafting new players. Iggy, Korver, and Willie Green are all solid role players. Louis Williams has even showed promise as of late. I couldn`t believe King when he drafted another SG-SF in Rodney Carney, but I think he has a pretty good future with this team.
everytime i use this lotto+mock draft simulator on espn link:http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/lottery2007/mockdraft, it has you guys picking jianlin or spencer hawes, what do you guys think about those two?

Personally, I was hoping we were going to aim higher than just another role player, but it's turning out to be otherwise. We had a chance to solidify the future of our franchise for years to come, but instead we waste the opportunity, and it looks like we will continue to be stuck in mediocrity.
I will personally write Billy King a letter if we use our first round selection on Yi Jianlian. Corey Brewer, Spencer Hawes, Ty Lawson, Roy Hibbert, and Jeff Green are all better options if you ask me.
I'm now officially pissed off. We're tied for the 7th spot now after a comeback victory against the Hawks in OT. Seriously, what is wrong with this team? The one time we want them to lose, they win. When we actually want them to win, they lose. Greg Oden, Brandan Wright, Kevin Durant, and Al Horford are basically gone. The best we can hope for now is maybe someone like Jeff Green. This is ridiculous. I don't know why I put so much time into this team. At this moment, I'm not even sure why I remain a Sixer fan. I might as well just quit now

The draft is stacked..so I'm not worried.
Wow, do you understand the concept of the lottery? The order is not set in stone, chill out there is still a chance Philly can get a higher pick than what they are projected.
