Exactly. To be fair to ball; his on the court results were stupendous.

I don't mind paying Lowry a 4 year deal even if they draft a pg. they need lots of players.

Jackson is actually the right choice imo

Sixers still come out OK. Hoping for two top 4 picks is unrealistic.

I wanted the Lakers pick to go to 2018 so this is almost perfect imho.

There the school of thought that LeBron will dominate the East for the next 3-4 years and therefore you keep Fultz.

Yeah I agree. Plus whomever they get next year. Plus they are cheap.

Jackson has the tools and frame to be both an effective scorer and defender at the NBA level. He is big and quick. I don't really see a better option for the team at 3. Monk basically will never be an effective defender in the NBA and Fox is a walking bust destined to be drafted by the kings.

I notice you didn't directly answer my question lol

If you think Jackson can shoot threes soon take him at 3 i agree.

But if he can't shoot 3s trade down or do something else. IMHO.

That would be good enough combined with the rest of the total package as you mention.

Sounds good if he can hit 36%.

They could stash monk on the other teams pg. but it limits switching yeah.

I'm not worried about finding shooters. I'm worried about playing non shooters on the floor with Simmons and Embiid. ( and to a lesser extent Saric).

But good brains think he (jj) can shoot well enough where his man won't sag off so take him and sign reddick and Lowry.

On no planet do I want to give Lowry 40 million a year for his 31-35 seasons

Especially since he wont' be the primary ball-handler

Who cares how much he costs. What is it stopping the sixers from doing.

Even if you believe he's allergic to the second round, a couple of second round outs would be manna from heaven in Philly. Health permitting, they're going to be good for a decade so it's not like even if he's a jinx it's closing their window.

Right his contract goes off the books when the 2017 pick us up for an extension.

Sign Lowry for 40 mil a year, that's the Sixers core for the foreseeable future. RobCo needs a big raise. Embiid (probably) needs a big raise. There will be little room to be flexible. Especially if Embiid gets a Brinks trunk and only plays 50 games year

Mostly, I just have a bad feeling any big Lowry deal will look real bad in a couple years

Roco and Embiid are both bird rights.

Maybe not ROco's extension but they have room to do both.

You'd even put them in separate tiers ?
