My dad still complains about the 1998 draft when they passed on Dillard.
Trill Bro DudeHOST
Dirk and Pierce for Larry Hughes in the 1998 draft they gave Matt Geiger one of the worst contracts in the NBA and also in fairness to Billy King he was running the team with someone else at the time it wasn't all him he traded for wash Derek Coleman wash Glenn Robinson wash Chris Weber and wash Jamal Mashburn who never played a single game for the Sixers during this time period.
Trill Bro DudeHOST
He seemed to be addicted to trading for wash players.

Billy King is absolutely going in the woke tier.

Joe GiglioHOST
So the Clippers basically get 10 first round picks at SGA for Kawhi Leonard, which goes down as one of the worst deals in NBA history.
Joe GiglioHOST
But, you know, one of the what ifs or bad decisions that was brought up on the show this morning, Tom Kelly brought up the Sixers passing on both Larry passing on Paul Pierce and Dirk Dubitsky for Larry Hughes.
Joe GiglioHOST
That is one of the chapters in my book.
Joe GiglioHOST
You know, what if the Sixers have landed one of those guys? What if they didn't make that promise to Larry Hughes? You know, what is what if Allen Iverson had been blurred with another star? to go next to him for those years.
Joe GiglioHOST
So it's in the book, whatisphillybook.com. All right, today I want to dive into Howie Roseman and his appearance yesterday on the WIP Morning Show.
Joe GiglioHOST
But this has caused some waves because Howie Roseman said something that I think made a lot of people, specifically those that believe the quarterback is – Locked in as the Eagles starting quarterback for a long, long time, Jalen Hurts, to say everyone that's questioned that, including me, is wrong.
Matt PerraultHOST
That state... was North Carolina.
Matt PerraultHOST
The state of North Carolina is where I was in college, coming back from the NCAA tournament where UMass had lost to St. Louis and Larry Hughes, and it was a one and done.
Matt PerraultHOST
We went down there for one night, stayed over one game, UMass lost.
Matt PerraultHOST
And we turned around and we drove back that night.

Taj Glover, so there's that.
Joe DavidsonGUEST
And Shaquille O'Neal is going to return as the voluntary basis general manager, which is great.

I was pumped there for a minute.
Thomas SenaHOST
I thought Larry Hughes and, and Allen Iverson were gonna be the back court of the future.
Thomas SenaHOST
I was there, man, in the trenches, and I'm excited.
Thomas SenaHOST
I guess we got LeBron James, which I heard about and I'm pretty excited about too, so.
