Kevin: Jennings had POT, can you blame us? Holliday also has POT.

Didn't think Holiday would fall that far. I'm not sure he's offensively ready for the league, but defensively...he's MILES better than anything we've had for years.
I love that we have a point guard who can turn off the defensive penetration and I think our perimeter defense is going to be much improved.
And...with the other point and combo guards falling...is it too much to hope to jump up and get another?

The only reason he played sg was because of collison.
If it wasn't for him jrue would have been running the show.
AmaZing value potential wise @ 17.

Color me happy!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holiday is a great pick for this team...needed a pg, and got a big PG who can defend...he has 'it'.
Love the pick!!

I said before I'm not a big Jennings fan, but if he was there I thought the Sixers should take him over Lawson or Maynor. It's the same situation for Holiday.
Listen... The way the Sixers roster and salaries are they need to GET LUCKY with this pick and get a guy who could turn into a really good PG.
Lawson and Maynor are much safer picks. Lawson and Maynor could both turn out to be better NBA players then Jennings or Holiday if either of them bust.
But Jennings and Holiday have a lot more upside then either of those players.

I think Holidays body types i closer to Dwayne Wade then Lou Williams. Nice pick by the Sixers and like that we got a top prospect at the PG position. How long has it been since we could say that?
