Re: Sixers Offseason Thread Part 3
All the Mo Bomba signing does is show how bad things are for the Sixers. It's rebuild time.

Still young and was good in spurts, what do you not like about him?FireMorey wrote:He’s not any good. And they’re going to have two backup centers when they re-sign Reed when the team is in desperate need of wings. There is no chance Bamba even sees more than 2 minutes per game with this team barring injury.

Don’t think he’s very good at basketball. Don’t think he’s the worst player in the NBA, but I don’t like wasting roster spots on guys who will only play if you have injuries to your two top centers, which at that point the Sixers would be SOL anyway.
They need wings desperately. They do the same thing every year. Sign a below average backup center who can’t play. Jordan, Harrell, now Bamba.

Re: Sixers Offseason Thread Part 3
I don't mind the Bamba sign if it means we can slide Reed to PF if needed and play Embiid/Reed lineups

Dropped 28 points on Embiids head.

Maybe Nurse can turn Bamba into what Boucher is.

Re: Sixers Offseason Thread Part 3
I've mention Bamba a lot in the past year. He was a trade deadline target for me and someone I thought we should look at for backup C in FA. He's friends with Embiid. I believe they workout together.
I'm also hopeful this move means we try Reed at PF w/Embiid.

Re: Sixers Offseason Thread Part 3
Bamba's theoretical shooting also allows you to play him with Reed too
I also suspect that Biid will load manage a lot more this season with the MVP in his hands
so again while Bamba is probably ass...he isn't one of the worst players in the NBA level ass either.

Re: Sixers Offseason Thread Part 3
Bamba + no wings makes me think we’re comfortable playing double bigs more often this season.

Terrance Ross also doesn't suck and is (was) a productive bench player like I think Bamba can be. I think he can be more like Drummond and less like Dedmon or Harrell.

Re: Sixers Offseason Thread Part 3
Ok now lets focus on a starting PF or three to compliment Embiid and Tobias.
