Intense game but man am I glad to be wrong. Great win Philly! Now they play Atlanta tomorrow with both teams on a back to back and Atlanta has no Paul Millsap. It would be huge if they could win

Stan is fine. He, like Vogel, are just examples that good coaches need great players to make a team elite.

I'm more impressed with how quiet the Harris supporters are. And the Oladipo supporters. Sure, Henny lost value on those deals but it should be clear as day we didn't trade away any stars.

In our new lineup Gordon and Ross are more than filling in the gaps they left. Hopefully we use Green's cap space to bring in someone legit this summer instead of another bum veteran.

There are no legit FAs this summer. Especially ones that would choose to come here.


I think we see a SF upgrade this summer. My money is on a surprise run at Hayward, a trade of Vuc for Crowder, or an all in gamble trade of our pick + Fournier for Paul George/Butler.

How would you rate Tatum as compared to Jabari Parker?

Not similar at all. Two different positions and different body types. Tatum is more of a shooter with some driving where Jabari in Duke was mostly a slasher and power player down low with a jumpshot here or there.

If I were to compare Tatum to someone it would be like a more athletic and more ISO scoring gifted Nic Batum.

Interesting... for some reason i cant shake the Carmelo Anthony/Jabari Parker/Tobias Harris type vibe about him, in that hes going to end up a high volume scorer playing PF, with sub standard D. The idea of a better version of Batum intrigues me.

Did you watch him in the tournament? I really was not the biggest Tatum fan in the beginning of the year. I was ready to but my Isaac magic Jersey. But Tatum has played so much better over the last 2 months of the season. Some say he was injured in the beginning which I'm starting to believe bc his improvement from game 1 to elimination game is crazy.

He is a perfect fit Alongside this team.

We would need the 4th pick most likely if we want Tatum

Lakers look like they'll be up at halftime.

Would be the GOAT tank day if they could somehow win too.
