ESPN trying to cause chaos in Philly for 30 seconds. No way something didn’t get broken somewhere in that time frame

Not mad at the result but HTF do the Spurs keep getting so lucky?

There must always be a quirked up white boy in Dallas.

Oh, so it's really really real.

They gave Dallas Flagg in response to Luka like they gave NO Zion for AD.

Welcome to Philadelphia, Giannis.

I never believe this stuff is rigged, but Dallas inexplicably handing Luka to the Lakers, and now jumping up that far to get the 1st pick takes the cake. Essentially, the Lakers and the league traded the first overall pick to Dallas for Luka.

Ok, what is a viable Giannis trade? #3 + Maxey plus another 1st?

1. Sixers get the #3 or #4 pick. Close, but no cigar has been the name of the game for the Sixers in the process era, and keeping the pick, but not being able to get Flagg or Harper would be true to that. And it would be a situation where everyone will have to debate all summer if the Sixers should keep the player they draft(if they use the pick) or leading up to the draft, trade the pick for a veteran to try to win now. And whatever the Sixers end up choosing will be wrong.

2. Lose the pick - the Sixers tried to win in 2024-25 and are only here due to utter incompetence. Losing the pick to teams that are just bad or are trying to be bad because would be sticking it to the Sixers for trying and failing so hard. The player the Thunder draft with the pick ends up being a superstar. Sixers fans are used to things always going wrong when it matters most and this would just be more of that.

3. Sixers get the #2 pick - close, but no cigar again. The Sixers take Harper, he's really good, but the ongoing debate about just how the hell a roster with this many guards is sustainable, and naturally the heated debates begin about trading one of Maxey, McCain, Grimes, and which one to trade.

4. Sixers get the #1 pick - they've gotten lucky keeping the Maxey pick before, and won with Simmons before. So it's not like the Sixers have been devoid of any luck. It's just more often bad things happen. Maybe the universe throws the Sixers a bone for all the suffering.

5. Sixers get the #6 pick - it feels too simple and on the nose for Sixers fans. It would just be too uneventful and there's some torture waiting to see if one more team jumps you and you lose the pick. But not as torturous of finding out you jumped into the top 4, waiting for the commercial break to find out if you get the #1 pick.

6. Sixers stay at #5 - statistically the most unlikely and even more uneventful than getting the 6 pick because they don't move at all. At least with #5 if someone behind the Sixers jumps into the top 4, Sixers fans have to hold their breath and hope no one else does and that would be a little scary.

Right on cue lol.
