so trading for an even worse player on a worse contract?

worse at what? free throws? what did Randle shoot these playoffs again? 29.4 FG%? Simmons shot 55.7% from the field.

At least Randle has the work ethnic to improve his game. Ben Simmons been in the league for 4 years and hasn't improve his game at all. He obviously doesn't give a **** about his craft.

Also these playoffs have shown why fit matters.

Front office needs to make a decision on Julius and Rowan soon unless, Randle is just a place holder for Zion.

If Embiid wanted out we'd have no chance, the Warriors would be all over that with everything they have in the clip and that's where he'd want to go.

Shoot They can have just about any star wanting out with the ammo they have this year.

This isn't good at all. Frank is probably better.

you talk about Randle like he was a second round pick. Julius Randle’s been in the league seven years just won MIP after being a lottery pick himself.

Ben Simmons is NBA all first team defense and a triple double threat just about every game he plays in. He’s literally better then everyone on this teams roster. Randle shot less than 30% from the field these playoffs. :lol:

I'm glad I was right on Booker, KP, THJ, but also Atlanta this year, Bogdanovic, Huerter, the Lakers lol, Jerami Grant and Mann. We should have tanked the year btw.

I've still got Siakam and Hield up my sleeve, among some other targets like Aaron Holiday, Kemba, Cole Anthony for example. Controversial I guess.

I was wrong on many others, Randle and Frank included, so I'll eat my crow.

watching another team self destruct is really therapeutic.

Incredible that the Sixers basically traded Bridges and Tatum that team wins mutliple titles and is a probable dynasty.

As for this series what a gag job.

Upsets on this level rarely ever happen in the NBA playoffs.

Worse at everything not free throw related. If you think making wide open and only wide open layups, then I dont know what to tell ya

this might be one of my all time favorite quotes from a player. No accountability or remorse and the deflection is gold. Mf'er really said "KD a loser, too" :lol:

Simmons getting a lot of hate. They do need to shake it up in Philly. Don't think NYK is right fit though

If Philly has Simmons to offer in a trade, they trump anything we'd be offering. Simmons + for Lillard would be interesting.

sht is hilarious until the realization that the Knicks wasted a draft pick on a mf'er that wore a fortnite coat to draft night.

If you think about it, top/clear max guys play 6-7 years on team that drafted them (6 if trade, 7 if leave as FA). Meaning, absent a very surprising move, if Zion comes, it's not for 4-5 more years. By then Randle is what 30ish? With a few Thib years? Could be a seamless transition if the cap is managed right...
