No idea but he hasn't exactly been raking in the minutes since arriving in Dallas. He also got called out publicly by his teammates and coach/

Murray is now 44/99 in RPM among SGs at 19 years old. Give me his clone in this year's draft and I'll be thrilled.

That is what happens when you don't trust the process

If I absolutely knew Simmons could guard small forwards, then definitely. That's still a huge question mark though, which is why I'm perplexed that the front office thinks we need a power forward.
2025-2026 Philadelphia 76ers:

Maxey/McCain/Lowry
Edgecombe/Grimes/Gordon
George/Oubre/Edwards
Watford/Barlow/Walker

These prospects need to stop letting their clueless handlers lead them astray to desiring to play in New York or L.A. with delusions of being the next marketing icon.

You can build a brand ANYWHERE.

I'd definitely trade for Porzingis. I love his game.

Would you guys go after Haywood in free agency? I think he would be a great fit.

With a little lottery luck and a free agent or two, there is no reason the Sixers can't be better than Toronto next season provided our players stay healthy.

With a healthy roster, what does Toronto bring to the table that the Sixers couldn't and then some?

I said I wouldn't mind Lowry as a free agent but he come so up small too many times in the playoffs. I don't like players who shrink in big moments. Unacceptable. I think we should pass on him. Too soft. Good regular season player. Horrible post season player.

Giannis is going to be a problem in the East for us.

If we make the right moves and have some good luck with health for once, there's no reason we can't get a top 4 seed next year. Even the #1 seed isn't out of the question with how weak the top of the conference is. Boston is the #1 seed this year with only 53 wins.

Woj reporting that players are fed up with the Knicks a large part because Phil Jackson is forcing the triangle offense down everyone's throat and no one wants to run it and they consider it archaic. Phil basically mandated it become a full go for next season.

They are such a mess.

He isnt going to be available, but of course I would trade for him. The question is what would we have to trade to get him.

He'd be great next to Embiid.

The Knicks probably wouldn't trade him for the first pick in the draft just since he has already proven himself in the league, and none of these guys in the draft have done that, and don't have higher ceilings.
