This front office needs to be deleted seconds after the UDFA signing frenzy.


Morey said the opposite. He said last year he was too focused on vets who could help in the playoffs, and he was shifting to getting youth and athleticism to help during the regular season.

If we lose our 2025 pick, we have the guys to get us the number 1 overall pick next year.

The NBA's basketball karma debt to the Sixers has been steadily rising since 2016. It's time to collect.

True. After Fultz fiasco karma demands we get another top pick, preferably one who doesnt forgets how to shoot lol

I feel kinda sorry for our future pick - if it is anyone other than Flagg, Nurse is going to make him earn minutes playing with the bench mob with Gordon and Drummond who will barely be able to walk.

But Morey did say in that recent interview where Mikey Miss grilled him that he has learned his lesson and that now we have ''young, under 25 guys to get us trough the regular season'', he specifically mentioned Bona, Edwards and Grimes.

Man...tonight is going to dictate so much. I think if we land outside the top 2, Morey will look at every avenue to trade the pick.

I think Giannis ends up in San Antonio, but I wouldn't be shocked if we end up in the rumors.
2025-2026 Philadelphia 76ers:

Maxey/McCain/Lowry
Grimes/Edgecombe/Gordon
Oubre/Edwards

Everyone hates us on r/NBA and is saying "anyone but the Sixers", it would be so cool to get the first pick, almost just for that.

They genuinely believe the organization tanked this year. Idiots.

That means the Spurs would be stealing another top pick here tonight. Otherwise I don't think they have the ammo to get it done. I know Castle was ROY, but I just don't see him as anything special, and he would have to be the centerpiece.

Babbling heads are already considering the Sixers trading Flagg for Giannis, which is insane.

I'll be pretty upset if we trade for Giannis. It's so short sighted.

Unless it's Embiid and 3 and nothing else, I would be straight mad if Morey traded for Giannis.

If Morey traded Flagg, which he never would, he would need 24-hr. police protection.

The only trade out of #3-6 that would be acceptable to me is for multiple 1st's in this draft or a combo of picks in this draft and future 1st's. I want to begin stockpiling assets, and not for Morey to squander to make the playoffs in '25-'26.

How do we not have any 1st rounders in 2026 and 2027? Isn’t there a rule against trading away 1st round picks in consecutive years?

From what I understand, 2026 goes to OKC, and either 2027 or 2028 goes to the Nets. So does that mean if we end up conveying our 2026 pick to OKC, then the pick to Brooklyn gets pushed to 2028 (top 8 protected), allowing us to keep our 2027 pick? That would make more sense and keep us compliant with the Stepien Rule.
