We haven't won a game since Harris and Fraud Morey opened their mouths.

Even if we win two play-in games, there's no way we will get out of the first round. We might get one win if we're lucky, but that's about it. Shut Embiid down for the season and give him time to recover. Our aim right now is it to keep our pick and hope the ping pong balls drop our way.

Is there a reason Nurse won’t play Butler? WTF

tbf he sucks

but lol we traded a first for him

We traded a weak first for a handful of decent seconds and Butler, give the kid a chance to play. The trade was more pick for picks than anything else.

Nurse commends Jo for giving us what he can. I don’t understand why he is playing when he’s this diminished. Although he’s actually helping us tank at this point so maybe it’s that?

New plan.... Bench Joel...I feel sorry for him. Let him get whatever he needs to get right. The future depends on making that contract tradable.

Start and play Drummond 32 minutes a night, limit Maxey and George to 30 on the floor together only. They'll never win again.

Will give Drummond counting stats that will guarantee his trade value this summer. Yabu playing back up 5 for Maxey is truly his super power and why folks see him as so valuable,, though he's a strong 4 as well... Could make him cheaper. No Joel gives George full ability to try and find his offensive game before next year...

Truth be told, this team with Yabu at the 5 with Maxey and George and the long active wings like Grimes, Oubre, Edwards is legit too good to not make the playoffs. Very promising group.

second round picks are quite valuable now and can be used in trades for teams hard against the cap

"The 2023 CBA created the second-round pick exception which allows teams to sign their second-round draft picks for up to four years without counting against the cap until July 31 of the player's first season."

In some ways, an early second is more valuable than a late first.

So ugly

Why is Bona not playing? What has he done to Nurse?
I mean, it is good for the tank...

The only thing I can think of is we are hiding players like Bona and Council from off-season trade talks
