Windhorst - "Sixers wouldn't give up Maxey"

[ItsDanger]

LMAO

If Maxey was on Minnesota, nobody would know his name. Philly is a bigger market and has people in media pump up their team. Maxey is solid prospect for bottom end of rotation. If people expect more than they are really reaching at this point.

This is why nobody should mock anyone for bad past takes.

We all have them.

Everyone has bad takes on here. I try not to bring old quotes up for this reason. Its a weak move. We're not the ones paid to make good decisions.

Ouch

Not really. Lowry on that team would have went to the finals.

Sure. Pretend not to get the point all you like. But... Ouch.

This guy is just laughing at himself.

Saying Philly should have traded for Lowry in a year where the east was wide open is not a bad take.

Constantly diminishing Maxey over the years is.

LOL! He was eventually traded for Achiuwa and you can't admit Maxey AND Thybulle is a terrible overpay and a bad take now

Really good job bumping something you're equally culpable for.

[YogurtProducer]

Yeah I was going to come say the same thing. Precious is intriguing and has an interesting skillset, but ... Maxey is trending higher right now.

IDK man, people act like Maxey is an all-star. He averages 17/4/3 and shoots the 3 on low volume, is not good defensively, is not a playmaker, etc.

He is currently a poor mans FVV with some slashing.

This one is a classic! Good eye!

Can you please explain where I was wrong? Absolutely everything I said in my post was factual as of April 2022

Either way, this you?

I see now why you refuse you to provide names of players when you complain, because you also cannot scout players worth ****

Huh? What are you even talking about?

You said just said bringing up old quotes was a weak move. But you just brought up old quotes and mocked people.

Unless you forgot to log out of some dupe account, you're ... not making any sense.

[YogurtProducer]

I mean, I don't want to get into all the stats and all that on a sunny Saturday morning before a big game, but I think it's fair to say the majority of NBA fans right now would give Maxey the upper hand if they were asked. I'm talking about as things currently stand today. 3 and 5 years down the line, who knows.

That’s why I said potential not who is better now. I don’t think you’d find many people around the league that would say Maxey has a higher ceiling than Precious.

This aged well

To be fair Precious without is a higher ceiling, lower floor, type of player. They were picked back to back #20/#21 in 2020.

Neither were "cant miss" prospects and that is why when you read old Maxey there are exactly zero people saying "he will probably average 29/7 in his 4th year"

Huh? The 2 arent the same. Did i use search? No youre missing the point, like usual.

Precious > Maxey?

Yea many would definitely not put them in the same league.

Maybe you should say "I don't use search in my bringing up of old quotes". That would clarify.

And, quite frankly, is a beyond strange qualifier to give that statement. That feels like an after the fact message, which really points to "I didn't realize I posted that under that account and I'm now scrambling to justify it".

I got it.. all good

People in their feels about some past bad takes begin arguing about pointless semantics to feel in control again. Cool.

Bumping old threads rarely ever inspires positivity.

People who made bad takes calling out others who made the same bad takes are being told to not feel high and mighty for making bad takes.

People owning up to making bad takes instead of rubbing it others faces is the right path here.

[Kevin Willis]

Harden was a real positive to his game. Losing Harden became a very big addition by subtraction move. Question is how Nurse handles the level of depth he has. I think he Maxey will play a lot and further develop his game. Guys like Batum will not play much when Oubre comes back. Maxey maxes their starting lineup one of the best in the league.

I think you missed the point. If you are going to use other peoples old points, you better own up to it when people can pull up your same **** takes as well.

The funniest part about this situation is that we can bring up those same posters shtity takes about Maxey as well

Awesome dude…sounds like you’re winning.

[MiamiSPX]

I think if anything, this shows us not to dismiss guys based on their lack of defense, which I am guilty of as well. I've come around on that position so much that I've even convinced myself that Simons would look awesome on our team right about now.

Why did you join a thread just to bait someone?

[Scase]

It all worked out in the end. We got Achiuwa who I think has more potential than Maxey. But wow, Sixers could've won a title last year with Lowry.

Is the jury still out on Precious having more potential than Maxey, or can we draw a conclusion yet?

Anyone who thinks theres still more potential in precious, they have clearly taken a brick to the head.
