    I’d just like to note that the TWolves are such F’n losers. Tobias Harris with only a few months left netted a better package than Butler. Those picks are huge.

    They should have never turned down our picks.

    Strongly disagreed.

    Philly has the Milwaukee model. And if Milwaukee can ride that spacing to the (currently) 1st overall seed, there's no reason Philly can't do the same.

    Simmons < Giannis - can't shoot, but can do everything else extremely well.
    Redick = Middleton - can shoot from anywhere
    Embiid >> Lopez - solid post defense, can shoot from anywhere
    Butler > Bledsoe - great defense on the perimeter. Can score well.

    And now you've got Harris, a much better player than Brogdon.

    Wow, what a freaking steal for LAC. But I can’t fault Philly, I love teams going all in for 1 year. Capitalize on it!

    Hate it or love it Philly is stacked. I feel like they got bigger talent on every position except Harden

    Get Lou. He costs only 8M for 2 more seasons after the end of this one.

    They can now go from their 7'0'' starting center to a 7'3'' back-up.

    Meanwhile, currently, we're going from either a 6'5'' Tucker or a 6'8'' Faried to a very old, usually not available 6'11'' Nene.

    Lopez is shooting 39% from 3 on 6.5 attempts per game. Embiid is shooting 30% on 4 attempts per game.

    Embiid is better overall obviously but their shooting ability is not comparable.

    The clippers are not worried about the Lakers or jazz.

    Muscala is a young player that can play and Chandler nice too!

    I'd like Tobias and Boban in Rocket Red. Maybe Harden can win a chip with an all-6'5"-and-under cast around him, but I'd like to improve our odds...

    Can we reroute Wilson Chandler to here? Give them a 2nd rd pick or something to add to their pick stash for AD

    We don’t have enough expiring contracts which is the whole reason they made the trade.

    Should have gotten rid of Avery Bradley as well. He is gotten worse on O these years.

    Disagree too. Maybe not as strongly. ;)

    The Milwaukee model works because Budenholzer is smart and every guy is deferring to GA knowing well he cannot shoot well.

    Brett Brown has not done anything significantly yet for me.

    Philly got too much ego on there.
    I hate to rip on Butler but he has become a big distraction, always having his numbers in the back of his head.

    'Yeah, I do this because I can and I am so competitive.' Lelz thinks he is better than he actually is.

    Also Embiid is not a guy either who just stands idly by and says nothing when he is playing the stretch 5.

    Of course it could work but it's not like they are one happy family, and everyone is complementing each other perfectly.

    I think Dragic is a free agent then, Wade will have retired, Haslem will have retired, Whiteside will be a free agent, Tyler Johnson will be a free agent. You have a lot of their guys coming off the books then. So unless they sign some big names free agents, I can see them being a shitty team.

    Rumor is they are trying to move Fultz as we speak for a veteran player.
