First off, Biid's walking boot is probably making him taller than he really is. With that said, Dario Saric is almost definitely the same height as Nerlens Noel, unless Noel is crouching slightly in every pose.

Secondly, you know Embiid is going to be in commercials, no-selling **** left and right and playing the somber straight man.

I'm not sure I've ever been more excited for the potential of a Philadelphia sports team. What Sam Hinkie is doing is groundbreaking, and if he hits on all his picks, we are potentially looking at one of the great teams of all time. Best case scenario, Joel Embiid is the second coming of Olajuwon, while Nerlens Noel is Camby meets Mutombo and MCW is Penny pre-injury. Add the new Detlef Schrempf in Dario Saric and a top three pick in the 2015 draft (please be Karl Towns, please be Karl Towns, please be Karl Towns), along with KJ McDaniels (Iguodala), Miami's 2015 first, and $30 million dollars in cap space? That ought to be illegal. Hyperbole, I know. But I like feeling optimistic about the Sixers, which is not a feeling I've had since the early Iverson years and early Barkley before then.

I genuinely believe that other GM's around the league are extremely envious of what Sam Hinkie has done in such a short time. The picture of the four of them young pups is awesome. If they win multiple rings years from now, that's a GOAT picture, much like the one of Jordan meeting young LeBron.

To add to my previous post:

How would a team of Penny/Iguodala/Schrempf/Camby/Olajuwon with one of Muiday/Towns/Oubre/Johnson/Okafor + Miami's first + $30 million dollars of cap space look? We could end up with a roster that is 11 deep and a second team that is better than some first teams.

This will be a fun team to play with in NBA 2K17. Can't wait.

I hope their luck has turned and Embiid's foot heals fully...add a shooter to the roster and they will be legit.

They are probably doing this to prevent him from pulling a Fran Vasquez. **The rest of this post was unnecessary. This is a great thread, please leave this kind of garbage out of it. Foshan**

Fixed it for you. Wait for roster where Saric is in Sixers. He's in the game.

First I have to buy a PS4 :cry:

But even if they do have updated rosters, our guys' ratings will probably suck. I think they will hit their stride come the 2016-2017 season and start showing some talent, especially MCW.

Just get it for PC, like I am getting :D

MCW will probably be 80-ish with Noel and Embiid in 75-78 range. Wroten as well 79 or something like that. Rest are ****.

Noel should be broken as hell. Athletic but less skilled guys are always too good in these games. Saric is going to suck. less athletic but really skilled guys who aren't snipers are always a little off.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

Pretty much. I'm very interested in how they rank Embiid, hopefully he has some kind of post game. Our team should be awesome in Association mode (or whatever they call it now), we have multiple high potential young guys, Noel should be OP. Very intested in how high the potential ratings are.

I didn't get 2k14, but I will definitely get 2k15 for PS4. I usually play Association mode and it seems to have improved a great deal, so I'm looking forward to that.

I am too poor to get a next-gen, so here's to hoping 2K15 doesn't suck on 360. I just got Madden 15 and it has been pretty good so far.
