    Woj saying the Sixers want a Harden-esque like return for Ben. Not sure about that...

    Come on Dame...we need him to come to terms with the fact that he cannot win in Portland asap. Him dragging this out till the fall will really screw us up, unless Beal suddenly becomes available or something. 
    Yeah it a tough call. It seems like of the 2 of them Beal would be the most likely to be traded tomorrow. There were rumors earlier this week about him possibly wanting out and/or the Wizards wanting to trade him before his contract is up so they don’t lose him for nothing next year. 

    Hopefully something exciting happens tomorrow. 
     

    Thank god we have someone as sharp as Morey running the show. I don't envy his position..
    I'll give him credit for trying, but this is the most laughable trade request I think I've ever heard...


    NBA Rumors: Warriors Rejected Sixers Offer To Land Ben Simmons For Andrew Wiggins, James Wiseman, And Four First-Round Picks (msn.com)

    Simmons for Tatum and Brown. Take it or leave it. 
    You have to take back Horford's contract as well.
    Honestly, I hold no ill-will towards Horford. But I am very excited to join in on booing him when he returns to the Wells Fargo Center in a Celtics uniform.

    I love these pundits. This morning it was 100% Simmons was getting traded today.  They just make shit up but never follow up they were wrong.

    like the Petrusev pick

    and why would Lakers want Russell Westbrook?

    The only issue I ever had with Horford here, and it was clearly the same in Philly, is he was way overpaid.
    He's a good player, but far from a super star and he was being paid max level money here and just a shade below it with you guys (and now here again). At least his contract situation becomes a potential asset after the 21-22 season.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    Always better to not pick at the top of the draft when attempting to build a successful team...


    Shocking! lol

    We trust in Morey and wait. 

    I have no problem with waiting all off-season to trade him. Like I said, I just don’t want him to be suited up as a Sixer at the beginning of the regular season. He will be boo’d at the WFC and have the pressure of being on the trading block so openly. I don’t see him handling that pressure well.

    Morey has a process he is going through to figure this out. We must place our trust in it.

    Turkish Delight staying! On a team-friendly deal no less.

    Dwight back to LA.

    Drummond is very concerning. Dude is just the worst in every way. 

    Full disclosure, I had no idea who Niang was before today, but I like the signing a lot. Costs almost nothing and prevents nothing in terms of using the full MLE if Danny walks. And he fills a huge need, someone to play the 4 that’s actually a threat from 3 and will let it fly. 

    I have a feeling that Morey has something sneaky up his sleeve for Danny Green, a sign and trade that nets a decent return.

    I don't understand letting George HIll go. It's not like he's great or anything but he was on a team friendly contract that would've served as a nice trade chip at the deadline next year. I liked him as a veteran presence in the back court, although he was pretty bad against Atlanta. 

    I don't like Drummond. The spacing with him and Ben would be as bad or worse as it was with Ben and Dwight. Perhaps Morey knows he's able to move Ben? We shall see.



    In other news, y'all see the video Ben dropped of him hitting one fadeaway against some scrub today? Hoooboooo, it's the Ben Simmons Shooting Highlight Reel Season baby! Get Excited!

    hahahah....I like the signing and the contract. 

    Seeing lots of rumors on twitter. Wondering if a trade is afoot shortly after the Olympics...

    Embiid about to get maxed out at another 4 yrs 196M. Fingers crossed that my historically short family turns into my kids being genetic freaks that are obscenely tall.
