Goals for the remainder of the season/offseason

Starting up my association at todays date with the 76ers leaves me a great chance of landing a top 5 pick in this years lottery(15-32). Hopefully this won't be a trend for the next couple of seasons but for now it's very much welcomed!

Roster Outlook

Out of this group of players our 1st and most pressing need will be to convince swingman Evan Turner that life in Philly will be much better in the very near future. And to pay him handsomely to keep him in town lol. I will not be trying to make any major splashes in free agency for this season. To keep it realistic there's a snowball chance in H&ll that a player like Melo, Duncan, Gasol,or Dirk would want to play here just yet so it's the draft and mid level FA's until we turn the corner or get a marquee rookie that might draw a FA to town.

Resign urgency

Turner: Extreme
Hawes: Medium
Allen: Medium
Dedmon: Low

Top Free Agents

Tim Duncan 37yr (PO)
Carmelo Anthony 29yr (PO)
Anthony Davis 20yr (2yrT)(RFA)
Kyrie Irving 21yr (TO)(RFA)
Ricky Rubio 23yr (TO)(RFA)
Kawhi Leonard 22 (TO)(RFA)

Hopefully Jason Richardson takes his 6mil dollar salary and take a hike! That would leave us the flexibility to sign 2 max contract players after drafting potentially Wiggins or Parker

Buuuutttt. If you have enough cap room and want to make a run a restricted free agent(RFA) then you have a good chance of getting a good young player if you make him an offer that his current team can't or won't match. Dependeing on how the draft shake out I will be launching a contractual attack on the Golden State Warriors hoping to pry young sharpshooter Klay Thompson out of the bay area.

Draft Hopes

Speaking of how the draft shakes out...my current roster situation leaves me in kind of a crazy spot. We have young players in MCW, Noel, Turner, Young, and Hawes but I feel this group is not built to achieve what we all ultimately want to do on a nightly basis and thats to win basketball games. The middle of the roster needs a complete overhaul and it starts on draft day, Jabari Parker or Andrew Wiggins would be great but a guy like Marcus Smart or Julius Randle would be an excellent step into resurrecting this dead franchise.
