Really hoping we don’t see much more of our vets this season though. (Aside from maybe the Drummond pump and dump)


Could blame Darryl for acquiring Grimes though, if you wish to blame someone. Which I do.


If the plan is to contend next year with these guys, then this period of time will be valuable for the guys getting used to the system and the other Sixers.

The idea the Sixers are going to let Grimes grind for a new deal and try to **** up the tank is ludicrous.

They are going to have to limit Nurse somehow. Maybe declare Bona out and force him to play Drummond.

Yep kinda dumb. We are showcasing him, so we will probably have to pay more to get him next year, and he´s **** our tank. We really need to limit his minutes( or invent a phantom injury).

I'm not at all convinced what it is that we're trying to accomplish. The goal should be obvious, but until some phantom injuries or illnesses keep guys out and Nurse starts yanking players who are playing well like Utah did I'm not sure he's "in" on the plan. Whatever that plan might be.

Outside of Yabu and Grimes, they pretty much played a G-League roster last game. Also, they've been just as bad as the Jazz in their last 10 games. I think it's pretty clear what they're trying to do at this point. Just wish they started doing this sooner.

Wow, Lonnie really smacked his head there. Definite concussion. Hope it’s nothing serious.

With this horrible 3pt defense we don't have to worry about the tank. Kudos to the Raptors fans for watching this.
