Portland won the deal??? LMAO, lol, lol, lol.....



*** guess if you're a pick fetishist and depends who they get for the declining Jrue (one of my abs faves...) But the Bucks just stuck DAME next to GA, ffs....

Jrue could have been a Knick

But Donnie Douche selected Jordan Hill, who.lasted 24 games.


He is a Knick every night once I drink myself to sleep.

Maybe one day Les will tell us who he considers the top nine roster guys who should be mainstays of this rotation.


Well ain't gonna be too different from Chip's anal TT scenario...and I think Deuce will see more action than Roby.

I'm good with 7th, 8th, 9th-man discussions, btw.

But no point in dipping down to 10, no way, not with this coach.

We can endlessly discuss our...15, 16th, I mean...18th roster spot. Or, we can meet Keith Pompey of the Philly Inquirer.

"As the Sixers beat reporter, I provide daily coverage, perspective, a social media presence and long-form takeout pieces about one of the NBA's young emerging teams."

What does Pompey have to say this weekend?

While discussing the idea of a possible Embiid trade with SiriusXM NBA Radio's Evan Cohen and Sam Mitchell, Pompey stated that he could see a trade to the Knicks "absolutely happening."

"Joel already owns a house up in New York, he's had it for a while. The worst-kept secret is that the Knicks have been compiling and keeping ahold of their first-round draft picks hoping, and praying that Joel Embiid asks out ... I can see that absolutely happening," Pompey stated.



* So Chip sez crazyasslesterdawgphantasy, the Sixer's #1 beat reporter sez, what were those words? "can see that absolutely happening," hmmm.......OK!

** BTW, Joel got married Saturday....in the Hamptons.

Again...

The idea that Embid is in play?

NONSENSICAL


If you haven't noticed the number of A-LIST stars who have put themselves in motion over the last five years, you are already dead.

Completely possible, and inching ever so slowly toward probable.

Where there is smoke, there will be fire.

Philly hath f'd themselves so many times that it is close to irreparable. Original sin, not one, but the failure to resign Jimmy Buckets will haunt forever. Good. F Philly!

If you'd rather debate which 13th man we should pick up and not play, well, have at and have fun. I could care less.





** If Jokic himself came into play the forum consensus would be 2 picks but never 3, with I. Quick untouchable, lol

*** The former rookie of the year returns....welcome home.

**** Trevor Keels, lol, whoop d goddamn doooooo....

Basketball / Crazy bitches don't want the mFN MVP!!!!

I can't even take it.

Cause you just had your second hot dog in a decade. Can't even imagine what real food tastes like any more.

To preserve a front court status quo that includes:

a mentally ill PF who delivers every other year.

an absolutely one way C who is more injury prone than Embiid.

sad crazy bitches.

a low hoop-IQ fifth year SF who can't shoot and has yet to deliver a net + season.

or maybe it's the picks.

and you don't want the mFn MVP, lol....

the craziest bitches I know. so beat down. can't even remember what it smells like. so happy for the crumbs that fall from Thibs butt.

I would stick 5 number ones in Mitchs back pocket so fast, give him a kiss on the cheek, a stiff kick in the rear, and remind him to pick up RJ and Evan on the way to the airport.

A total fail** with Toppin from draft day to departure.

All this talk of save your assets. From draft choices that don't convey to draft picks who you don't develop, use you assets I say, before they devalue to crap, use them to grab blue chip talent.

Ah well, at least Obi is FREE.


*** well, unless those two 2nds are part of the package Portland wants for Dame, I'd add in two or three firsts without blinking or thinking

not a problem you worry about ... in any case, 9 NBA players appeared in 82 games this past season.

Would I want to give up the store for a 33-year old oft-injured player?

No. But I'd give up some significant stuff, he's really good, and his game should age decently if his legs work.

And we should be clear about what the "store" is and not overvalue our players and picks nor get our panties in a bunch when we give some up.

Run it back? Well if running it back means watching tired players some with feeble minds and broken psyches grind out minutes on bad legs in a reductive system while Obi stands in the corner and forgotten shooters stay locked to the bench, zero interest.

If it means getting creative with our talent in ways we haven't seen yet, ok.

Wild deals indeed.

I suspect we don't stand pat with so much talent flying about.

I divide rumors into ones about players I like and players I don't like.

Are they players who could contribute to a championship team?

The latest rumor is about Paul George. I like Paul George.

It bleeds the energy and focus from the Heat to keep Randle in check.

Surely a lot there. Despite his equally subpar performance against the Cavs, he kept the attention of Evan Mobley fully occupied helping all kinds of good things to happen. And better taking no shots than taking bad shots or fumbling away the ball.

Still think he could help a bunch more tho'...say by blocking out 6'5 players, or storming back on transition D, a speciality of mentally healthy players.
