Maybe Adam Silver will have some sympathy for us in the lottery. It's the least the league can do after raw-dogging us for every little thing we do.

I’m still watching the games because of Kate and Alaa’s humor. They keep things entertaining, and I even pick up trivia and learn new English words from their commentary.

Sixers have 2 options in my view and both involve tanking:

1. Sit both Joel and PG and focus on getting their bodies as right as can be.

2. Sit Joel entire season; but give PG a chance to come back in January for 17 games hope he plays well and you find a team wanting to pickup a vet for a playoff run. I still think GSW would move Wiggins and other salaries for PG if he played well enough. If Middleton can't bounce back the Bucks could do a Middleton.

Trying to salvage this season is a mistake.

Don't think anyone here can blame you.

For the rest of this year, it really feels like the tank is on.

I give you a lot of credit man, I'd rather have metal spikes driven into my ears than listen to them while watching this.

Sixers might be able to get something for Yabusele at the deadline too.

Agreed. Take option 1, tank as hard as possible, come back next year with Jo and PG ready to go day one along with Maxey, McCain, and a high draft pick.

Pretty sure he's joking. Their 'joking around' style of commentary is maddening and they're totally oblivious to how not funny they are.... especially while LAC is amid opening up a 30 point lead.

This is really sad. I don't want to make a trade at all. No reason to sacrifice the future right now.

They have to fix it, or it will not be fixed.

Nick Nurse is trash. Didn't he used to make adjustments?

There’s no compete for next season. No vets are gonna sign here for below league value. All the guys who signed here just depleted their value.

Its either compete this season or complete rebuild

So this is what it looks like when McCain isn't shooting 40% percent from 3 on double digit attempts.

It really depends on Embiid's health and how far PG has fallen off. We'd be adding another high quality price via draft and some growth from McCain. I think if we can get a top 3 pick , we should have the pieces already in place to avoid a full rebuild.

Sixers about to have another team meeting immediately after this Clippers game. Atleast via zoom.
