The only transaction of this management I agree with in hindsight.

These are the things you love hearing. I'm interested to see just how much his release point is "back where it used to be". It's also going to be important to see if he can continue using that release point as the season progresses, or if his shoulder starts to give him trouble again.

Big season for him.

He has shown the ability to flat out ignore people on his way to the rim, if his shot becomes 35%+, it's on.

He was #1 overall for a reason. We got him for cheap-also for a reason, but his upside is still all-world.

Holy **** !

Kind of seems like something dumb to say unless you really believe in it.

I’m excited for Cole and Okeke, but Fultz regaining his perimeter Jumper is still our best chance at having our own star lead scorer.

His growth is one of the main keys to our growth. Hope it all comes to fruition in gameplay.... PG of the Future he would be.

A completely unleashed Fultz would be the only thing that could make this team this team watchable this season. An unleashed Fultz that develops some good chemistry with AG would make it drool worthy.

If the legit & undisputed #1 overall pick version of Fultz arrives ...

Forget I said anything about tanking.

Agreed. A big step forward from Fultz would cover a lot of the holes on this team. It just sounded like wild speculation before. Can't wait to see some game action on Friday.

I’ll only believe it when I see it.

It would be a dumb to even throw Fultz under the bus or talk **** about him before the season even start.

Seriously, I wish Fultz take the next step and become a star. He could be the super star to build the team with.

To make this team the next level, should we consider a Demar Derozen trade to upgrade us a Small Forward spot. So that we are more competitive for the playoff.

What about a Fournier and Derozen trade plus fillers. I know DeRozen is in his contract year. So is Evan.

A NO.1 pick Fultz + Vuc + DeRozen. Darn, we are going to be good

Great now when Fultz doesn’t become Tre Young instantly they’re going to turn on Clifford. It’s probably going to be gradule improvements ok not “#1 overall pick Fultz”

Why should we do that? Demar is useless now. Great scorer but until he learns to extend hid range to the 3, he is nothing

I guess Ben Simmons is useless too, right?

He could help this team a lot

Good listen. These guys are pretty high on the team... but they discuss most of the stuff brought up on here.

Agreed... even though i'm always positive on the team! lol but it is awesome to see Clifford hyping... and he's not really the type to hype soo hard unless he really believed it. We'll see me.

That only happens if Fultz' 3 comes back, Cole is better than expected AND Chuma contributes.
