As a second-home sort of Sixers fan, I don't like this pick at all. I would have liked to of seen Thornton or Wright here. Atleast I know now that the Pistons won't be drafting Young.
UGHHH WTF? I know Thad Young has nice potential but UGHHH! If were gonna draft a SF who doesn't fit a need why would we take him over Julian Wright?

Damn, I started out really strong for the mock draft contest...but since Brandan Wright at 8, I havn't gotten a correct pick...damn..
The bad thing about Thad is that if the Sixers wanted to go small, Thad cannot play the 4. That's why they should have taken Thornton or Wright.What's the deal with Rodney Carney??

We just have another wingman now and we can't use him in as many ways as we would've been able to with Wright or Thornton.

We obviously weren't gonna get a true big man here with this pick but atleast we could've taken Wright or Thornton who at times could've played the 4 when we go small.
I like nick young to the clipps, instantly gives them good scoring and GREAT athleticism. He could probably start right away
NO really should've taken Nick Young. Him and Chris Paul in the backcourt would have been fun to watch.I'm getting excited with the fact that Al Thornton or Nick Young might fall to the Wizards.
