Ah, ****, Noel too.


There's a thread in GB saying how the Cavs has the best offseason in history or something. I'm so tempted to say that I think they are going to look back and tell themselves that they made a mess in the draft in both the 2013-2014 drafts. But right now, I'm keeping my opinions to this board cause I don't want to sound showboating again to sensitive fans.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

I'm excited for you;) I will definitely have the Sixers on my league pass this year. I love Nerlens, who has generational type ability on the defensive side of the ball. It is very rare to see a guy that size play the ball so well no matter if its up high or down low. He's a joy to watch.


There's still plenty of room on the Bandwagon... Welcome!


Lol-thanks:) I finally have a reason to watch the regular season now that Lebron has moved on, the Heat might actually try to prove themselves instead of waiting for the playoffs to be competitive. That, paired with a young, exciting Sixers team will make it a fun year.

Anadolu Efes is the team Saric signed with and is listed as one of the teams included in NBA2k15

Awesome news for us as we can play with Saric in the game

That is awesome. I can't wait to play with him.

Saw your post on a thread I posted at the NBA draft board where I was sharing my thoughts on Noel vs Wiggins.
Nice to hear some unbiased opinion from a veteran poster like you who knows your basketball.

Glad I could provide a desirable opinion;) Truth is, the Sixers have drafted my favorite college player the past two seasons, and that has got my interest peaked for Philly. If your team drafts Towns or Hezonja next year, I will fall out. That would be the baddest group of youth ever assembled;) I think if Joel and Noel stay healthy the Sixers can go as far as they want to.

Turns out that he IS in Philly. He tweeted photos of him having a cheesesteak.

I wonder why the team isn't publicizing it.

They took him to Pat's steaks. He might think cheesesteaks are overrated now.

Lol, I take it Pat's isn't the best option for cheese steaks.

Embiid is the man. So happy Sixers took him and not Exum or Gordon or whatever clown

Right. I think it's more about hitting the "big name" tourist attraction, and less about finding the best cheesesteak.
