so close...and yet
Well...Pek isn't really the same thing as Noel. And if you looked at both rosters in 3 years, the Sixers will have replaced Thad in your lineup with Embiid, LaVine in your lineup with a top 10 pick in 2015, and Wiggins in your lineup with a top level free agent SF (maybe even KD?).
So I'll take the Sixers lineup every day.
I just meant in terms of filling the center spot.
But Adding Wiggins and Lavine PLUS the top15 pick (which would easily be a bigman) seems better to me.
also lets get this out of the way now
KD isn't coming here. It's OKC, Washington and maybe Toronto. I want people to stop getting this idea that KD or any high profile talent will come here just like that. Even if Embiid and Noel are legit..they will still be virtually unproven by then as we probably won't have made the playoffs by then.
any future lineup that has KD (or FA STAR) apart of it is super dumb IMO. OKC and Washington will be better win now spots than we will be..barring Embiid being that great from jump and leading us to playoffs success right away (he won't...Embiid is a great prospect but guys..he will need time to develop..,..lots of time). KD or this hypothetical FA will only leave their current spots to WIN RIGHT NOW.
so just stop before you guys fall.
