Markelle Fultz 

Post#1 » by NADROJ » Wed Jan 17, 2018 2:45 am

What a bizarre situation.

If you're PHI, do you just stand pat and pray at this point?

Or, is there any sort of deal that makes sense? What is Fultz's value right now?

Unique dilemma, for sure.

Unique in what sense? They went through it with Embiid and Simmons didn't they?

No urgency to make any Fultz deal for Philly at all. When he regains his form he is exactly what they need.

I think Philly will ride or die with Fultz, wouldn't be a good look to sell on him now. Wouldn't have a clue where his value would sit either.

I'd keep Fultz if I were Philly. I would probably offer Myles Turner for him, but wouldn't add anything else. I really like Turner as a player and teammate, so even that would be extremely tough.

Philly doesn't need another starter with a broken jumper. Both they and the Lakers needs some shooters.

Only the Sixers know what the story is. I don't see how other teams can value him. I think the Sixers need to keep him and see if they can rebuild his value. He'd be a great fit for them if he can figure it out.

Fultz will be fine. Just be patient.

Maybe him + a bunch of their excess 2nds for Kemba Walker?

I don’t even know what his value is at this point :dontknow:

For Fultz and Philly, I do hope that is the case. But honestly, you dont change form and lose all of your confidence then somehow like an injury you gain it all back. First, you have to recover from whatever ails him. Then you have to fix the form. Lastly, you have to make sure mentally Fultz is okay. Fultz might be better off taking the year off and working on it.

Fultz and Philly are in a deep trouble/issue. I dont know what happened to that sweep jumper. I think Fultz injured himself and changed his form to accommodate it. The rumor is an BMX riding accident.

Philly cannot trade him as I doubt he has much value right now other than someone offering a mid first rounder for him as a low buy.
Colangelo is looking very dumb right now with how Tatum is playing in Boston and the Lakers/Sacramento pick looking good.

I would just shut him down. They still have good shot at playoffs without him. Need to protect that investment. Give him an off-season and training camp to get back on track.

This sounds so stupid and short sighted, but bc I have no confidence in BC I wouldn't rule out a Fultz move soon, in the wake of this recent JJ Redick injury. JJR and Cov were the only guys who could stretch the floor and score on this team, and now JJR is is shut down for the foreseeable future. Maybe BC doesn't move Fultz, but I wouldn't be surprised to see this PHI 1st become available now in LouWill talks, as much as I would hate that. This guy just continues to lose leverage in trades and get fleeced in the process. It is what it is.

This. Not as complicated as some are making it.

No way BC trades Fultz now. If he trades Fultz, it shows his failure for what he gave up to get Fultz and he probably gets fired also. BC will ride this out as long as he can, he is praying Fultz will get his shot back.
