The Celtics have a ton of talent but retain a soft underbelly. It's why they struggle with Miami.

If I remember correctly most were against citing his weak 3 point shooting. It doesnt matter he brings a lot to the table. Jimmy Butler is not a great 3 pt shooter and he was great with the Sixers. There are five starting spots you dont have to have a good 3pt shooter at every position. A guy willing to take them when he is wide open and make a few now and then. Siakam can do that especailly from the corner.


He probably will resign with them, so don't think we should focus on him.
We didn't go after him because we didn't have the picks to hand Toronto

Ingram is showing he isn't really 'the guy', is he?


New Orleans is very fortunate they can move on from Ingram and still have two very good starters on the wings with Herb Jones and Trey Murphy. One a defensive monster another who can pour in 3s. Not a Zion fan but they have a nice little foundation.

Btw, KD can play this Batum role

I think KD should be on our watchlist. Suns looks like they’re about to collapse.

Came here to say Denver owns the Lakers' soul. But then saw this and it kinda connects.

I would bet Morey has both Durant and LeBron, maybe even AD, on his watch list.

Please don't ruin what was a great night all around.

I want no part of either of those mercenaries anywhere near here.

Is it weird I would be madder about LeBron? Maybe it's weird. I could absolutely see Morey take Bronny in the 2nd round entirely to try and sign daddy, though. Let's not think about it for now. :lol:

We're the perfect situation for Cupcake. He's not Batman. He's not Robin. He's a bus rider, and here he'd be #3 behind Embiid and Maxey, exactly the role he's perfect for. Essentially a Tobias that's worth the money.

Nothing weird about that at all. The only good thing about James coming here is I would have my escape hatch from following this corrupt league any more. I want no part of Durant, but you can't even compare the two.

What a perfect analogy.

The closer the Clippers get to being eliminated, especially in the first round, the more valuable the Harden trade picks becomes for the 76ers. Morey will be watching every move the Clippers make or don't make this off season.

It would be funny if the Harden trade finally turns out to be Clippers first round picks, PG, Martin and Batum for Harden and PJ Tucker.
The Accession of Paul Reed is upon us !

Bring on the draft

You want it to be one way....but it's the other way.

The fact the Lakers are considering Redick to be HC just shows how teams will figuratively twerk their desperate rear ends for the King of Disney World.

He literally cannot coexist with an alpha coach, it’s always gotta be some former player buddy of his. I’m convinced he would’ve got Phil Jackson fired had he had the opportunity.

And yet people want to bring that garbage in here. Well, it would give me a reason to quit the NBA like I quit the NFL.

It's annoying seeing Banchero and Edwards do what they're doing.

And our #1 picks were flameout busts.

At least Doc & Harden went to other teams to spread the misery around this time.

Return to Philadelphia 76ers
