Keep Ben Simmons away from my team, thanks.

I wonder if Morey was hoping Thomas slipped one more slot. Would have been perfect for us. Possibly even our next franchise piece.

Playing great so far, but don't let this fool you: when the 3s aren't falling, we need someone other than Embiid drawing fouls to generate offense. When we look great, we really look unstoppable. But as soon as the heat cools, we get completely stagnant.

Friendly reminder that Niang was really freaking good at Iowa State and had a really unique point F offensive skillset.

yeah but because the offense seems to be more willing to chuck 3s...we also won't be fully out of games as we were last year either.

A big chunk of this is that we didn't had real volume shooters outside of Curry and Green. That's why line ups like this are exciting, you can really stretch the floor and Joel can play DHO with more than just one player

I’d like Reed to play more like Jerami Grant than Siakam. Develop a jumper and be able to defend smaller guys. I dont think he has what it takes to play C in the NBA

I hate to say it, but if Harris isn't shooting threes this year, he might not be a good fit, either.

Harden has to watch his heir apparent dunk. Tough
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

Now without Ben, Drummond and Biid can bulldoze guys in the paint if 3s aint falling. We just need Maxey to be a 16ppg guard off creation

I just watched Paul Reed intentionally switch onto James Harden in isolation and come away with a steal. Love this guy.
jonjames is a signature bet welcher.
