Bolden, Shake, Zhaire, Thubulle are all young...how many more do yall want exactly? We're likely to have the best starting five In the league next season with a chance to add a few more experianced pieces In FA and folks are still crying over second rookies? Smh.


Bolden sucks ass. Shake might not be any better. Zhaire and Thybulle are very similar guys.

and again even if all of those guys somehow pan out...we still could use more young talent....especially cheap young talent. That so called best starting five needs to sit occasionally. and 2-3 of its members will miss time.

again its not a big deal right now but it could be down the line.

Shocked that Bol lasted so long.

I hope we get Tacko in the 50s.

We will trade the pick for a future pick or cash.

we have the mle, and the caliber of a team that can attract minimum salaried veterans to fill out the bench. i also like jonah bolden, plus zhaire needs to develop. i have no problem with elton brand at all.


In order to be able to use the full MLE and BAE, the Sixers will now have to sign three actual contributors on vet min deals. In a market where teams are flush with cap space. Good luck with that.


nothing's changed. we got one rookie expected to contribute. unreasonable to expect more than that. i've been suggesting plenty of options for the mle and bae. i've also suggested some vet minimum dudes. and it is further unreasonable, imo, to expect so much out of 2nd round picks, but yet so little out of zhaire smith, jonah bolden and shake milton.

You miss all the shots you don't take. Good contributors from the second round make for a better team. Zero picks means zero contributors. If we had a few, maybe one pays off. Maybe we'll take a shot in the 50s after all.

Shake dropped last year after the combine, Ponds might be that guy if he lasts into the 50’s.

veterans on minimum deals historically contribute far more than second round picks. for just one example, there's a glut of backup point guards on the market, so we can get derrick rose for not much, and taj gibson for the minimum. gibson will outperform 28 out of the 30 second round picks. use the mle on a five. thomas bryant jr, please.

If we merge Porter's and Thybulle's career ppg together, we get one good offensive player at 18 ppg.
