Arguing with Myself: Should the Sixers Draft Mikal Bridges?

Blind Loyalty: The Sixers should draft two-time NCAA champion and local hero Mikal Bridges out of Villanova

Randy Cohen: No, they shouldn’t!

BL: Absolutely they should. Bridges is exactly what the team needs: a 3-and-D wing to back up Robert Covington.

RC: Don’t you mean, to back up LeBron James, after we sign him? Are you sure it won’t be Covington backing up James and Mikal gathering dust as the third-string SF behind two guys who seem capable of playing 40 tremendous minutes each and every night?

BL: Well, the draft is before free agency, and we have no idea whether we’ll be able to get LeBron.
