I doubt if they catch Utah for the 8 seed so why not save money by bringing in a cheap guy with a known contract compared to giving out 10 day contracts until April 13th.
It's not because he was good or bad. It's because he was cheap as hell which is right up the 76ers alley over the past few seasons.

Because according to the logic of people like you, the 76ers do nothing aside from try to sign the worst players possible to ensure that they lose the most games. If that's the case, there are a dozen "real" NBA players out there who the 76ers have been keeping out of the league the past 3 seasons, so it should be a no-brainer for a team like Denver to sign one of them to the exact same contract.
