Already, the draft hasn't even started and I feel like we're not maximizing on our opportunities.

It wasn't realistic for us to get one of the top three picks either


Sure it was, and one has to do with luck and the other has to do with another team not wanting to get ripped off.


a team "getting ripped off" is subjective - one mans trash is another mans treasure - its not beyond the realm of possiblity

Wait a minute... it's been a loooooong time but if memory serves me correct, I do believe the ORIGINAL man with the source has made an appearance. Wow. Everyone is coming out of the woodwork.

I remember when your source stopped being... well, a source. I thought we were doomed. Luckily/coincidentally SF76 came aboard right about that same time. Either way, it's awesome that you've come back, Duce. It's been years since I've seen you post.

I think the Kool Aid Man is going to make a strong comeback soon.
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

I don't even think he's needed. It seems like we've all filled our cups and drank it down already. Not only is this board gaining a lot of new members but when you see people like Duce showing back up... well, you know something big is happening.

looks like alot of teams are trying to move up into the mid lottery...

rumors are OKC could send Maynor and a late 1st to Indiana for 10.
they could possibly go after Aldrich...


im really hoping we can move Lou or something to net a pick and get an additional big.

Aldrich would be such a great fit with OKC. They don't need ANY help on the offensive end and just need a big man who crash the boards and play D. Remember when Portland looked like the team that was poised to be the next dynasty? I think OKC owns that title now.

Long time lurker here from Sydney Australia (Just put in my leave request for tomorrow as the draft is friday morning my time) and just wanted to say that TPG your avatar really reminds me of Diesel from back in the WWF days...

Oh and thanks SF for all the updates and I can't wait to see Turner in a 76ers jersey!

Westbrook
Harden
Durant
Green
Aldrich

That's such a great, young squad. I like Jeff Green a lot but I think they should look to move him at some point to get a low-post player instead.

I think Maynor is headed to Indiana in the rumored deal but yeah.... definitely a good, young bench as well.
