Is there anyone here that would tell me honestly that you would rather have PJ Tucker, Melton, and Danuel House over those three guys? I don't even have to look up what they gave up to get those three guys but its waaaaay less then what we gave up for our three. These better run teams get role players that actually perform when it matters. We have a supposed analytics driven GM who manages like it's the 80's locking on to players he had and liked in another job. I like De'Anthony Melton but he was horrible in the biggest moments and apparently he was not good for Memphis in the playoffs last year. Murray and Jokic didn't even play particularly well and they still won. When at least one of the Sixers big two doesnt play really well the Sixers never ever win big games. I feel like if there was such a thing as choke/loser factor for a roster we definitely are at the top of the list.

New owners always like to make a splash.

Can't imagine that WSH would take on two toxic contracts like Herro and Robinson to start a rebuild, although Robinson has enough cache after his playoff performance that they can probably turn him right around for some draft capital.

Really weird decision. Not too many teams are in the market for a 5'11" guy that goes 6 for 16 from the field every night.

Not really. He'll get similar or better yearly money on a long-term deal from Houston or San Antonio.
