I am baffled by that Philly trade. IT'S so obvious they need a PG it's got to be purposeful.

If I were a sixers fan I would trade teams by this point. WHO cares how much talent a team has if it still sucks ass. It's like having a brand new Porsche in the driveway but no keys to drive the damn thing.

All they are doing is damaging all their young players psyches into oblivion.

Dumb ass franchise.

NO I get that, but you still have to have some gaurds on the floor the same as with Milwaukee and the Greek. There is no excuse for what they have done so far, and even having Beno who Stan snapped up would make them so much more competitive it's insane.

Oh well, I'm just glad we got Stan, and the collection of talent we have in Detroit.

They did though they signed 2 vets in Jerryd Bayless who is hurt but I would think he would play the Chalmers role for them, they also signed Gerald Henderson. Also Sergio Rodríguez has been decent at least on par with Beno this year. They were/are just unlucky with injuries.

For real!!!!


I don't think , other than Whitesox fans, there isn't a Cub fan in all of us. Good for that franchise.


Does that mean Detroit Lions now hold the oldest drought?

nope not even the longest in football

Arizona Cardinals now hold the longest drought in sports (at least the big ones in this country)

So glad the Cubs won. And the absolute meme potential of CLE going up against the Cubs 3-1 only to blow it and lose in the end...

That's some sick twist considering what happened with GSW.

Warriors blown lead was still worse. They were the greatest regular season team ever, league MVP, defending champs. That's really blowing it.

At least this was an all time great series and historic game 7.

Cleveland definitely deserves some ridicule though.

Not sure where else to put this so I'll just leave this here, based on our top threads, would you guess we're only 5 games into the season? :D

Johnson looks like hot garbage. Anyone who can't see it is clearly lying to themselves.

I think the Knicks played like a team tonight. Can they do that more often?

Embiid is looking legit. Like really, really legit.

He has the highest 3pt% of that qualifies so far. Even though it's only a few games, that's insane for a legit 7'0 guy with mass doing that.

he looks ridiculous however he's going to have to prove he can last a entire season and more importantly that he can translate his play into wins. Ain't going to lie, not looking forward to playing philly this year.
