76ers 2023-24 Season Thread Part 2

[Eyeamok]

I'd be interested in Malcolm Brogdon as a 6th man elevator. Can play the 1 or 2, good size at 6'4 230lbs. Elite shooter, good passer. That's 15 ppg off the bench that can play off of Embiid or take over in spurts with Embiid off the floor.

He's on two years though, and assuming we're hellbent on not sabotaging the 'cap space plan', I'd assume one of Tyus Jones or Monte Morris are in Philadelphia on deadline day for a package of 2nds and salary.

No Malcolm Brogdon he double dribbles at the most inappropriate times.

Seriously like you said an excellent addition to the team. But that two years what does it do to the plan Morey has in place? Who is Morey trying to get in the off season with the cap space and draft picks. What is the deal here?

IMO the guy Morey is drooling after is Paul George.

I'm not saying that's in any way realistic, JMO of what Morey is thinking.

[SixthStreet]

I imagine that Brogdon (assuming the big ? of if he will stay healthy) will get the Blazers a FRP during the offseason or next year deadline when he's expiring. I imagine they keep him through this deadline.

His contract is just not a match for the Sixers at this point.

Jake Fischer says if Lowry is bought out, the Sixers seem like a likely destination for him.

Clippers might be grabbing all the LA guys, but here we come grabbing all the Philly guys! I wonder if Morris will share the key to Philly.

Surprisingly low cost for us; didn't even need to trade Maxey.

[NYSixersFan]

Signing Lowry would make it easier to include Melton in a trade.

13 days and counting for the fraud to improve this roster significantly.

Just the mere thought of this makes me want Morey to go all-in before the deadline, cap space be damned.

That is a remarkably long article about a very unlikely scenario.

Jason Dumas(whose reliability is questionable) says keep an eye on Dinwiddie for the Sixers.

I'd take him for cheap, but he's not a good enough shooter.

[NYSixersFan]

If we're talking to the Nets, I'd be happy getting Cam Johnson.

Honest question to this board do you frequently watch other teams games outside of national games on NBA TV, TNT, and ESPN well I do. Im not claiming some type of superior expertise but I have seen a lot of these guys play this year and Im telling you right now Kyle Lowry is cooked. Stop getting excited by old, cooked players. The Heat are a smart orginization. Picking up there dumps is stupid. And we dont need more tiny guards!

Haven't watched Lowry this season but I've heard this as well. Which is too bad, b/c what's not to like about a non-cooked Lowry?

[NYSixersFan]

Lowry is cooked if you expect him to start and play 30 minutes. Can he help a team with 15 minutes off the bench? Sure.

Seriously would only consider Lowry to be Pat Bev insurance. He is playable depth, even playoff playable for minutes. So, definitely wouldn't be mad at it. I don't see where his minutes would come from at the moment. He's no more of a creator than Bev at the moment, probably worse defensively. But Morey may trade some depth

I'd pick Jones if that's the case. I like Tyus Jones, but he would appear to be a bad fit with Maxey. If that's the deadline deal then so be it. I'm like you, I'd rather have Brogdon because he's playable with Maxey or Melton or Bev for that matter. He's also having a nice season in Portland. He had the injury early on, but the irony is he's been the most durable guard on that Portland team this year. I don't know why they're holding on to him. They need to just move him and get back some assets. Obviously we'd need salaries to match up, but I'd part with Jaden Springer as a portion of the deal. Obviously some other things would need to be added. A draft pick, IDK. I'm not a fan of us giving up our 24 FRDP, but a future one would be fine. That's just me, I'm sure Portlands GM JRoy will get back to me as soon as I post this. His reply will undoubtedly be "Portland declines, Sixers need to add three FRDPs if they want Malcolm." Who knows though? Maybe Morey can talk him into it.

That is not entirely true.

POR wants a FRP for Brogdon. If we can’t get it I expect we will keep him and test the waters this summer.

Not interested in the Springers of the world.

Totally understandable if PHI wants to aim higher but MB is absolutely worth a LPFRP.

I never said he wasn't worth that. I agree that he's worth that. With that being said, YOU are not the GM of the Portland Trailblazers.

The guy absolutely shows up in the playoffs though. Proven playoff performer and he's always been a Sixers killer.

Are we not all RealGMs? Or is that just you?

[youngcrev]

More Tobias propaganda:

I might be wrong on this, but I don't think there's a player averaging more PPG than him this year on a lower USG%

Not sure who the target audience is for that propaganda, though.

We know better and other teams seem to just see the contract (even though it's now expiring).

To convince ourselves that he's fine for now as a 3rd option, because they're not doing better this year.

Listen...Joe... We're just talking basketball here. Give Morey a call, see what can be worked out here. I'm just a sixers fan.
