Sixers V Bulls 2/24 Pooper for Cooper?

Wow, Lonnie looks really rough. Passes on a wide open 3 only to dribble into 3 guys and get stuffed while falling on his a** then blows a pass to Maxey.

Yup, Giddey looks really good these days.

Presti doesn't have many head-scratchers, but trading Giddey straight up for Alex Caruso was definitely a terrible move.

Caruso is behind several SGs on that roster now and Giddey has continued to blossom.

God I wish we traded Oubre for at least a second rounder. He is such trash.

This is going to be an unpopular take; but I don't know if I'd can Morey if we keep our pick. For all of Morey's downsides; he's been a very good drafter. If we don't land Cooper, I think I'd want his eye deciding which of Harper/Bailey/VJ is the right pick.

That Maxey, Lonnie, Council Oubre and Yubu lineup would have made since as a run n gun lineup if ..
Atleast one of those 3 wings of Oubre, Council and Lonnie weren't bird brained, brick-laying idiots.

Mentally and emotionally it's got to be hard in the locker room right now knowing Joel is facing a potentially end of career decision. I know many of us are frustrated with him; but those guys are teammates and family.

Can we can him right after the draft if we keep our pick.

Yeah Lonnie looks awful. I suppose playing him, Roddy, and Drummond is under the radar ranking.

LFG! biggest game of the year so far and our guys are knocking it out the park

Negrodamus · Post #34 » by **Negrodamus** » Tue Feb 25, 2025 1:11 am

This team is showing little to nothing right now, so it's definitely his fault, but I do feel a little bad for Nurse.

Comes to Philly in the middle of the Harden saga. Harden is traded for some future picks, Batum, and a bag of trash. Gets Embiid for part of the year only to come back for the playoffs and look like a shell of himself. Year 2 he gets essentially the same Embiid, an injury riddled PG who is showing his age, loses McCain for the year...

If the team didn't looks like a group of corpses out there, I'd call for him to come back. The embarrassing defense is unforgivable though.

I don't think you fire Nurse, but he damn sure may want out. Either way I expected a new voice next year. It's ovah.

You're right, it's unpopular.

Give me Bob Myers and whoever he wants to hire as coach.

Bulls average 115.9 PPG. Sixers have given up 75 in the first half to them and the Bulls 2nd leading scorer (Vucevic) isn't even playing.

There’s no way Harris fires Nurse this off-season. Too cheap. Nurse gets one more chance next year, and hopefully gets the directive to tank the rest of this year.

Morey is gonna do everything he can to make sure Nurse isn't fired because he's a scapegoat card for Morey to play in the future.

You fire Nurse. There needs to be an entire purging of the old "era" and a transition to the new era under Maxey. No retread coach unless it's Spoelstra level coach. Also need new shooting coaches on this team.

Also, burn down those stanchions and build them anew.

While we're at it, sage the whole building and encircle the entire court in salt embedded under the floorboards. Just do it all to start anew in 2025/2026 season.
