Not sure how OKC matches salary. There would have to be another piece or two coming back to the Sixers.

I'd welcome him back on small money if he got bought out.

It's just some feeble CYA for the egregious tampering that happened there.

That actually a good thing for us if they trade Simmons for Harden. Stops the nets from becoming a super team. 76ers still won’t win it all.

Poor Al but that was necessary for the Sixers, was never going to work.

Nowhere I was already working from home and basically doing absolutely nothing pre getting it. I have absolutely no idea who I could have caught it from. The contact tracers could not identify any contacts for me. I've really been on one extreme end of the isolation spectrum these past few months.

I really couldn't possibly be living a more boring, isolated life right now, and somehow I still managed to get it...


What's the worst symptoms?

Whole thing was very mild for me. I've had the flu three times in the last four years, and this was easily the mildest of the three. I'm actually still not convinced all the symptoms were due to covid - the physician initially thought I had strep, because I had that classic painful swallowing, but that never got too bad and resolved after about 48 hours.

Two main symptoms for me were:

- Back pain. Whenever I get the flu, I always get muscle pain all over, which eventually resolves everywhere else and settles into my lower back. Throbbing, constant, unrelievable by changing position. Eventually got a handle on it with ibuprofen though. But I'm an idiot and hate taking meds so I always wait too long, until I'm about to go mad, before medicating.

- Dizziness. Really strange, with this one. Not something I've had with the flu before. For the first couple of days, when I had all the classic flu symptoms, which were mostly pretty mild, I was very dizzy. Like, enough to be quite uncomfortable trying to drive my car to go get the test.

Super mild or no symptoms at all, I hope. Get well soon!

I am likely one of the few people here who admits that they think Ben Simmons is awesome. But I have to keep it a secret.

He isn't a good fit with Emiid though. Would Harden be?

Dont see the Thunder being able to start Adams and Horford together, so they have the same problem the Sixers had. Can see him being moved to another team to be honest.

To all the Philly fans arguing with me that I don't know who Al Horford is and that he isn't 100% an albatross contract

They can absorb the salary difference in their cap space.

Man, Ainge needs to up his game if someone competent is finally running the Sixers and there's going to be a super team in Brooklyn.
