Charlotte got Jefferson, Maxiell, B Roberts, Stephenson and Mar Williams

Detroit got Augustin, Martin, Butler, Gray, Meeks, Jennings, Billups, J Smooth

76ers got 0 because that's how much effort they are putting into it. I can take those free agents for the Hornets and Pistons and beat the 76ers by 20 5 nights a week.

Yeah but he said talented FA.

My view is skewed because of playing text-sim games and seeing just how well tanking works in the fictional FOBL (though I think there are plenty of real-world examples where it has been just peachy). I'd rather see the Sixers win 18 than 32-33 as the Pistons/Hornets did. At least as someone who doesn't care about actually watching them. The NBA is built on stars, not serviceable journeyman free agents.
