I feel like that would be out there if it was the reason, like every other excuse about why they chose to trade the pick that's making the rounds. From him having a disappointing workout to Taytum being Paul Pierce.

eyeatoma wrote:Anyone else want to weigh in on that link I provided where it seemed like although Fultz addressed the question about the condition of his knee, he said he didn't want to go into details... I'm sorry, but with the history of this organization, this really concerns me... Does anyone know if any of the other teams checked his medical records (or if they all have to under protocol)... I also heard that when he attended the combine he had medical testing... Just want to make sure multiple teams have checked him with a fine tooth comb... I will be so upset if something comes up, and if he were to miss time (5 of our most recent pics have all had injury concerns).


The way he talked about it during that clip I think it was a situation where it was mild soreness and he used it as an opportunity to sit out to get ready for the draft. I don't think it's an issue. He most definitely was grilled about it by teams and probably had to give a real answer for it.

Fultz running double horn with Biid&BS at high post will be EPIC.

Do you guys think Fultz will start?

Seeing we really are aiming for the play-offs, I can see us start with Bayless or TJ at point and maybe even TLC or Sauce at 2.

Think Fultz will be coming along very easily.

...or Ben Simmons will be the starting point guard.. like the 76ers have kept telling us for 6 months.

I could see Simmons/Bayless/RoCo/Saric/Embiid being our intended starting line up, but i just can't imagine that we have our first home game wihtout Fultz in the starting line up, the place is going to be dying to see embiid / simmons /fultz on the court together.

The only reason why Fultz wont be starting is if he is the worse than kwame/bennett.

Fultz will be a great back-up for TJ.

How much better is Fultz-Simmons-Embiid better than KAT-Wiggins-Lavine?

Don't know, but at least there's a lot more defensive potential in our team

Congrats, boys. Sixers just became a team I'm going to follow next season. Scary talent across the board.

Simmons is the best incoming talent w/ half a year of NBA training and practice under his belt. Seems like a lock to me. There is a chance Ball puts up solid counting stats since LA should give him free reign.
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
