Sixers Offseason Thread Part 3

[Eyeamok]

Niang, Milton, McDaniels leaving.
Beverley, Bamba, Harrell signing.

The evidence thus far points to Morey not wanting any money on the books beyond 1 year.

Also not extending maxey to the list.

Siakam and OG are FA next season.

Likely Morey's plan. Run it back with this group, then either way go after both of those guys and extend Maxey.

Maxey
Springer
Anunoby
Siakam
Embiid

Can probably still re-sign Melton and then use the MLE and our 2024 1st to fill out the roster.

Morey is also going to go hard for Miles Bridges.

I was going to say that Morey doesn't usually go after guys who have a sketchy past, but he did trade for a guy who was sued for secretly filming his girlfriend having sex with him then dispersed the video. I know people were upset with McDaniels not re-signing, but I had an ick factor from that whole thing.

[Arsenal]

That's a bargain contract for Basketball. I was fearing much worse.

The only reason not to INSTAMATCH is to hang that annoying punk Danny Ainge out to dry until the last possible second.

Next year's cap room is not an issue since the contract will be easy to move if needed.

Therefore, there is no excuse not to match, besides the CHEAPNESS of the little rat that owns the team.

In the final analysis, trading for McDaniels was 100% a luxury tax-ducking move. This cheap ownership likely had no intention of bringing him back, even at the very low and reasonable contract he ultimately got.

No point now since he's a RFA. If Miles keeps his nose clean then we can target him next summer as an UFA.

That ain't happening. I'd be surprised if he signs a sub-40M annual deal. There's gonna be a lot of price shock with the cap going up for the next handful of years.

He'll be over 30 next summer. It would take a pretty dumb team to sign him to a multiyear contract over $40m per. Both he and DeRozan better be under $30m players or this league is broke.

You saw the dumbass deal Jerami got, right?

The cap is going up like 50% over the next few years.

They need to just blow it up, but they never will.

Sadly, I agree Siakam will get closer to $40M/yr than $30M/yr next summer. I'd rather keep Tobias at $20M/yr than "upgrade" to Siakam at $40M/yr.

Zach Lowe is suggesting that the offers for Harden are really bad so the Sixers are hoping they can just run it back.

But if that's the case, they're going into next season with the worst bench in NBA history and a worse team that already wasn't good enough.

None of what they've done this summer makes any sense whatsoever.

Adam says that we might be doing a sign and trade with Bball Paul... Ughghg Later in the thread he says this is not a guess, and is something he's hearing.

[FireMorey]

They can't sign and trade him if he signed the offer sheet. This person is a nobody. He doesn't know anything.

You can’t sign and trade Reed since he signed the offer sheet.

Not surprising. Hopefully showing Harden how little other teams value him helps to ease him back.

And it's hyperbole to claim their bench is that much worse. Assuming we match BBall, our top 7 from last year is back. Niang and Shake swapped out for Beverley and Springer isn't that big a downgrade and could even be a wash depending on how Springer develops.

Their bench has no shooting, that's going to be a problem. If you were to give players a number grade, Niang and Shake may not be mountains better than Bev and Springer, but problem is those guys provided a skill set the Sixers desperately need when their team is built around Embiid. They have no one to space the floor right now.

[Negrodamus]

I predict we sign Louis King to a longterm cheap contract a la Shake.

[FireMorey]

If one of these fake insiders are going to get respect they need to start posting terms of deals. This vague nonsense with no specifics is stuff anyone can guess. People are addicted to NBA rumors and random accounts eat it up. Even that dropping dimes account has yet to post any specifics to any deals. It's not hard to guess which teams are going to sign which players if you follow the top insider accounts.

The day the Bucks hired Adrian Griffin I texted my friend that I bet the Bucks hire someone other than Nurse soon. Later that day they hired Griffin.

The day the Sixers hired Nurse, I texted my friend that Memorial Day feels like Nick Nurse day. I just had a gut feeling it was gonna happen that day. It happened later.

If I posted that on social media, people would have considered me an insider, when really it was just educated guesses and gut feelings based on reading the tea leaves.

If you don't have years, money, or trade specifics(exactly who's coming and going) then I don't have time for ya as an anonymous insider.

You're basically wanting Daryl to be your insider then. i don't think the sources are leaking the terms. They would out their source lol. It's probably like 2-3 people who know those things.

I'm guesisng you were one of the posters who was anti Sixerfan1976, fl311, as well as our other insiders. We have had legit sources before, we've also had many fans question their credibility, causing these sources to leave the board. This guy is on twitter, so that won't happen, but what's the point of questioning this stuff? I mean yeah question it, but you just come off as someone who is aggravated by this. It drums up discussion, during the dog days of the offseason.
