If he's healthy, he's definitely the plan. Higher ceiling than Brogdon for sure. A modern nba shooter with a fast trigger and can shoot on the move. But jesus... he's not even playing summer league games, that's concerning.

Huh cool

I was at a Bucks/Bulls game last year and whenever Robin would score a Bulls fan in my section would scream "THE REAL LOPEZ" and whenever Brook would score I'd yell it right back.

Now we can be friends.

Casuals eating this garbage up. Watch them keep Thananis now too.

Why not? basically he is new-Thon. I know which player I would rather have.

Cool so Robin is playing SG too now

So RoLo, DDV, and Brown instead of Mirotic, Brogdon, and Snell. I like DDV a lot, but considering shooting and foot speed were their demise against the Raptors, I don't understand how you get significantly worse in both departments.

Robin grabs the tough rebounds.

While Robin doesn't have the 3-point history of Brook, Robin does have a nice, easy stroke based on the (rare) 3-point highlights I could find. It's better than Henson's, so I have no doubt he'll be able to fit in on offense.

Given he's replacing Niko in the big man logjam I'm guessing Ersan is getting moved in the SG deal coming up. Willing to wait a week to see if something coherent comes together. Not excited about this and wouldn't have given him the second year.

This is a decent move. Its very funny ppl complaining about 4.7 million. Its whatever really. We still have 1 more move in us but i wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't occur in the off-season.

Wow. Don't see the need. Good defender which is nice.

I don't like Robin as a fan, but can appreciate what he is able to do on the court. Do these brothers get along?

I am concerned we don't have enough shooting on this team. We really need to get Seth Curry is my feeling.

Seems more like a sentimental move than one of need, hope Robin been firing off 3s all summer

The need is that Philly added Horford. We didn’t have a backup center, they would’ve killed us.

Yep true, he's a good defender as I said and that helps. All depends on cost for me. He's a fugly player and doesn't have some of the skillsets his brother has. Needs to rely on scrapiness and such. He will certainly help against bigger team.

The sixers took a hit losing JJ and Butler so far. They need Horford for when Embiid goes down too.

These are good times were living in. Much better than the past. Heck look at Dan Gadzuric,Corry Magetti,John Salmons,Monta Ellis,Bobby Simmons & last but not least the Miles Plumlee signing.Them were all some real head scratchers.

The meltdown going on is wild.

I like the signing, not really stoked on the PO but it’s a backup. I repeat, a backup. Now let’s get a wing with some fancy GM work and ride off into the regular season

coolhandluke121 · Post #198 » by **coolhandluke121** » Mon Jul 1, 2019 12:33 pm

I like Ersan more as the back-up center. Don't really like Ersan at PF, especially if paired with Robin. I'm okay with Robin and it's a good deal in a vacuum, but I just don't see the fit. Prefer to try smaller, quicker, spacier line-ups when Brook is on the bench.

You guys really think a kid who appeared in 22 games and shot 25 from 3 is going to be our starting SG next year? And higher ceiling than Brogdon? I don’t see how...Donte isn’t going to have a 50/40/90 season in his career and I would be shocked if he sniffed scoring 16 a game. He’s not a starter in this league whatsoever and that’s not gonna happen unless we are devastated by injuries/make no other moves in the coming days.

Think someone like Kornet or Kaminsky would have been better fits for what we're trying to do.
