Sixers Will Draft Evan Turner, According to Sixers' Website

im sure most of you saw this the other day. well i just think thats GREAT!

its no secret that doug collins has been heard to say that he absolutely likes derrick favors so that there was a slight possibility that wed take him at 2.. but hearing this gives me good assurance.

this makes the most sense for the short term part and financial part of this team. short term.. he's going to help out our offense immediately.. lets face it... we're not an offensive team. we were barely good at anything but what we did get right the most was defense. now thats great to have defense run our team.. but when the fastbreaks don't work.. we have to have a better half court set... and this will help us get the ball moving. financially this is good too because evan turner has the potential to get us selling tickets again. it was announced during a tnt game that sixers were in the bottom 5 of stadium attendance. so yes.. i believe the organization is suffering a bit.

plus favors is a project.. he's not going to be great right away. he'd be buried deep into the bench and will probably only get like 10-15 mins a game if that. and chance are.. it will be out of position because he's taller than brand and speights is undersized (strength wise) at center. so we don't really reap the benefits of favors yet. thus making us have another miserable season. and sucking the money out of the organizations wallet.
