Otherwise idk. Sixers fans were puffing their chest up and saying they can't trade Simmons for Harden this offseason, they need to sit with that pride that their so proud of.

But what would Portland get out of that trade?

I don't care what seed you're in it's hard to win a playoff series with playing 4-5 on offense fro 40+ mins

I just got a really bad vibe from this 6ers team. Ben probably definitely needs to go even though he can't get much rw.

he was yelling at people on defensive end while passing up wide open layups and bricking free throws on the other end. no one wants to be yelled at by offensively disabled phuck boi Ben

what a disastee

beyond Ben, I just dislike this 6ers team on so many levels

Biid: plays like washed Hakeem with bum knees
Tobas Harris: plays like Kyle Kuzma on an average day in the playoffs not a max player
Dannie Green: injured washed
Milton and other bench guys: total disappearance

Seth can't possibly carry all that garbage

Hawks knocking off the Knicks and 76ers did me a big favor. I don't think I could have managed watching either of them win the EC. I would like to see them take out the Bucks too. That's not going to be easy at all, but a Suns vs Hawks Finals will be so much fun.

It is really hard to watch from the outside, but the truth is we were embarrassed by a team that was pretty good. We still suck. We are really a terrible team, and we would have been crushed even worse in the second round matchup.

Agreed.

And I hate the Hawks.

This Hawks team is completely showcasing the point I've been trying to make for 3 years now - It's all about the shooting.

They have like 2 plus defenders but almost everyone is dangerous from 3. Great spacing. They don't have great talent level as a team, but they're built for this era :

1 main 3 level scorer
a couple of secondary creators
a big that plays big and defends the rim.

Simple and effective.

BTW couldn't have happened to a more deserving team.

Sixers tanked for years,
Daryl Morey **** the Rockets and left,
Embbid is the most arrogant never-won-a-thing guy ever,
Crowd is chit,
Killed poor J-Rich career.

Just think about it : they lost for years and years on purpose and got a ton of high picks - yet never achieved anything close to what our glorified G-league Ikea built team did in the bubble.

Must sting like a MF.

sounds like a bootleg GS team pre KD.

Trae = bootleg Curry
Huerter = albino Klay
Bogdan/Dalio = a bunch of capable shooters
John Collins = ??? Harrison Burnes
Capela = Looney/Bogut

They have a shot if Bux's role players continue to disappear, but I"m rooting for em Suns for Kaminsky reasons

That's nuts. His performances have hardly been that bad. It's not like he's sucking canal water like Ben Simmons.

And his contract isn't nearly as horrible.

I don't buy that McCollum is viewed as a negative asset ... except maybe by crazy fans.
