I've never seen a board hate a coach so much in my life. You can say Curt Schilling for president, then throw in Fire Kidd at the end and still rack up 10 and1's :lol:

I think Pringle & Peanut Head got equal share too.

The problem with Kidd is he freaking experiments too much. Guys regret signing there because of that.

I had Melo and picks... my plan A was to put him with Wade and Hill... which is exactly what happened but not for me :lol: :lol: :lol: . I just didn't want to build around two old dudes though, I've gone that route too many times before.

I think you made the right decision. Melo's Al Harrington with a shoe deal and Wade is beginning to decline a bit.

All I am going to say is that if Embiid Stay Healthy and Philly surrounds him with Talent forget about it. This dude is powering a D League Club to mad wins recently. You know a player has it when he can do that with a team like Philly.

I actually looked it up because I don't remember ever seeing Hill in the Finals. And yes, he never did make it there as a Spur. Two 1st round losses, and one 2nd round loss.

took a lot of flack in 13.0 for taking Embiid at pick like 150...

IT3/Klay/MkG/Milsap/Embiid woulda been starting five right now for that squad.. with a very good bench of players who will be picked soon. I've had some bum teams in retrospect, but that one was a gem.

He got further than that btw...almost took out the Heat in 2013 ECF (7 games) when he was with the Pacers. Lost in 6 games the next year tho. Forgot bout that...weed has taken a toll on me.
