Yeah he's been really good defensively. That is why I don't want to include him. Will be very valuable in the playoffs.
He was just about a league average 3 pt shooter last year. Would be great if he can come close to that in the second half...
2 nights ago he went 3/3 and then last night he made some really strong drives to the bucket. If he could be slightly below average on offense it would be huge.
Sucks to lose that one but all things considered you can’t be too upset about it. Second night of a back to back, losing Curry down the stretch (hope he’s okay) and Tobi couldn’t get a shot to fall in the 4th/OT where he has been lights out so far this year. And oh yeah the MVP of the league wasn’t playing. The Bucks don’t scare me at all in a 7 game series.

Ben cannot play 45 minutes and only score 13 without getting to the line once. Defense was out of this world good in the first half but, damn it. Back end of a back to back you need your top guys to step up for you.
Wasn't expecting a win but blowing a huge lead like that sucks. I'll take a 2-1 start without Jojo though.
All of these trade deadline rumors are stressing me the fuck out. It seems like the Lowry scale might have tipped toward Miami in the last week or so, but if they aren’t willing to give up Herro then it might not matter. Toronto also seems to be shopping Norm Powell, so I could see Miami throwing in Herro if they get both in return. That would bum me out so much.

I would almost prefer Powell. Kyle is okay but might cost too much and our starting line up is great now. We need bench guys who can play against the studs of the Nets when Joel and/or Ben is on the bench.

If you trade for him then you want to extend him right? I'm not familiar with their finances. Are they able to carry all those contracts (Harris, Joel, Ben, Lowry)?

Once he's on the team they can extend him through Bird rights and spend beyond the cap, wouldn't be able to sign him as a FA. It would normally make it a little tougher for other moves in the offseason, but I think Sixers (like many teams) are already projected over the cap next year anyway, so a trade is the only way to add high priced talent.

Oh hmm, then if that's the case - and they actually do extend him - then I can get behind this move if they give up Maxey or Thybulle (not both!) and two 1st's.

A few third stringers for a guy who shoots 39% from 3, plays point and is a good defender off the bench. It's an okay move. Although my buddies are convinced that Tony Bradley has morphed into Wilt Chamberlain over the last two weeks. lol
