Ok, can the 76ers somehow do a trade with the 36ers

Salary matching may be difficult since Charles Bassey earns more than the entire Adelaide 36ers team :lol:

Box score shooting % is eye watering. Team shot
FG 46-83 55.4%
3pt 24-43 55.8%
FT 18-20 90%
134

For context, Suns earn AUD267million more than the 36ers and apparently no one on the 36ers is good enough for a bench roster spot in the NBA :noway:

It would be interesting if the Suns were suddenly just terrible, especially since Sarver is selling the team.

The exciting part is when Kawhi rips your throat out in the playoffs.

Heat running a Yurtseven and Bam frontcourt duo.

Tell me again how running a double big frontcourt is dead.

Bench:
Quickely

Wembanyama will be good (assuming health), but I still can’t excited watching him. Also, 0 assists in 30+ minutes?

I remember when Yurtseven torched us last January. Sixers still won though.

Impressed with both Wembanyama and Scoot. I like both and both should be atleast allstars.

I just dont think Wembanyama is a guy who can anchor your offense nor anchor your defense, because he lacks playmaking on offense and rebounding on defense.

While Scoot is almost as perfect as it gets for a guard.

Without Scoot, I’ll be the biggest fan on Wembanyama just as I have Chet on top of my board last season.

Nevertheless, its still way too early and there might be some random guy on top of my board before draft night.

He's gonna be unguardable if he can shoot like this. No one can stop Durant from getting his shot off and this guy is a half foot taller.

I might just be a hater but I’m just not totally sold on Victor (as the best prospect since LeBron). His size, touch, and fluidity is obvious but his injury history scares me. I’m also a bit worried about his playmaking upside and if that’ll limit his ability to be the main hub of an offense. I think he’ll be an awesome player but at this point the hype is a lot to live up to.

I’m completely convinced that Scoot will lead elite offenses during his career tho because of his athleticism, pace, and playmaking (assuming his jumper is real).

Same, but maybe I'm just a hater too.

I don’t know why everyone compares him to KD- i don’t see that level of shotmaking. Dirk seems like a closer comparison.

Yup.

If he can do that regularly, no doubt he should be selected number 1 overall. But I think at this point, GMs are 101% going to select him because the hype is just too high to pass it up

Because he just shoots and makes 3 over anyone

If the draft is today, you can never go wrong with Scoot or Victor

That’s not how KD plays though.

For other people, KD just shoots and makes 3 over anyone
