Maybe but this tank race is too close for this. What are we gaining by putting this dude back in. It makes no sense. What's so dang hard about tanking?

While other tanking teams are shutting down their veterans we are bringing ours back when we have absolutely nothing to play for except a high lottery pick. This is what it's been like to be a fan of this team the last five years. Unbelievable

Guys like Green and Meeks can hurt us, they only play for new contracts.. Well not Green as much as Meeks.

"Magic guard Jodie Meeks, who has been out with a dislocated right thumb since Jan. 18, has been cleared to play and is expected to be available Monday against the Sixers, a source said. ~ Marc J. Spears"

Hopefully he's rusty and bricks a bunch of open shots.

He would still be the best shooter off the bench.

We 4th right now but we are not a lock there. The tank race is close. We can't afford to do anything that doesn't help the tank. Seriously what good could Meeks bring us right now? This is a attempt to finish the season strong and that makes no sense at all.

We have nothing to play for?

Yes we do.

We are playing to get our asses handed to us in the first round. Playoffs baby!

Wow Philly really about to beat Boston? Even without IT that is impressive. We are not in the same level as them. That team is much better then their record indicates.

If Philly can ever get fully healthy and assuming they get a top 7 draft pick a lineup of:

Smith Jr/Fox
Free agent
Simmons
Saric
Embiid

Would be scary for years to come.

And if lottery pushes Lakers out of top 3, they get their pick

Extremely jealous of Sixers, crazy how far ahead they are, when they started their rebuild the same time as us.
