Thank you Dario Šarić 

Post#1 » by Kova » Sat Nov 10, 2018 10:21 pm

As a fellow croatian, I'd like to open this thread and give my farewells to Dario.

I'm emotionally attached to him being a Sixer, so this falls hard on me.

Thanks for being a part of the process Dario, and best of luck in your career. May you achieve your dream of becoming an all-star in this league.

Who knows, maybe, one day, down the road, you come back to complete our dream of getting a championship as a Sixer.

Love you Shi Shi and I'll miss you being a Sixer!

Dario is my guy no matter what. Same with RoCo. I expect those guys to feel the love every time they come back to Philly, regardless of what uniform they are wearing.

Me too.

I loved having both of them on our team. I’m still for the deal, but I wish them nothing but the best and will miss them both.

Going miss Dario a lot. He played like ass to start this year but generally dude played hard and tried his best. He kept his word and came over and was loved by all.

Dario playing well elsewhere might have me concern posting a lot yo.

I hope Dario was ok with this trade. The guy kept his word coming over, saving this team a lot of money and flexibility. Sort of shady to turn around and trade him, but I guess that's just the business.

I thought the same thing, but they couldn’t treat it as a no-trade clause. They had to do what was right for the franchise.

Plus it was in his third year. It isn’t like they traded him right away. They treated him well.

He’s in the same group with Thad and Brand. They’re not perfect but they are very professional and gave more than their everything every game that makes them hard to hate.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

As a Wolves fan I'm psyched for Dario and RoCo coming to our team. I wish them the best. If this deal was made a month ago I would have wished the best for Jimmy and you guys. However, Jimmy made such an A$$ of himself that I can't wish him well. I hope he flops in the absolute worst way for you.

I totally understand why you feel that way but probably the wrong place to express that :lol:

I'm just keeping it real man. I loved Jimmy until I didn't. What a POS he turned out to be.

I'm thinking if there is one "Dario Saric game" that stands out above the rest. He's had a lot of good games here, but there isn't one game that stands out above the rest.

The game saving block against Pau in the Olympics or the two blocks against the Raptors in our January 2017 run stand out the most to me. Ironically both were defensive moments - maybe because they were so unexpected.
jonjames is a signature bet welcher.

Rest assured that he wasn't. He wanted to play out his career in Philly. He is a very loyal person, and this probably hurt him a lot.
Especially since fulfilled his promise towards Sixers, and considered himself as one of the key parts of the championship team in Philly.

My guess is he is probably sick to his stomach right now.

Throwback to the game when Saric destroyed Butlers Bulls, who was also guarding him on a few possessions :)

I got no doubt about Dario's mutual affection with Philly, but I'm hopeful that his next destination will include a more conducive scheme, more tailored to his talents, that will do him well with his next contract. Still, hate to see him go.

Thank you Saric, for coming over, so Hinkie's gamble didn't become a complete disaster. Helped us get an All-star.

It won't aslong as Thibs is there. Hopefully we fire him in summer. But Saric game is similar to Bjelica, and Thibs was awful in giving him looks to be effective. Completely misused.


It wouldn't surprise me if he keeps starting Gibson btw.

I have a total Dario crush and will surely miss him. He will be even better on a team that needs his playmaking more than the Sixers do. You will be missed, Homie!!!!!!!!!
