Disgusting performance.   Doc Rivers is a clown.  Lose 3 games at home to the f-ing Hawks.  I hope he defends Ben to the press again.   

Lost 3 games at home as the #1 seed to the #5 seed when their best player shoots 5-23 … ouch.

Geez, PHI is going to have to attach picks to move him. His contract is even worse than Wentz’s.

theres lots of bad contracts in the NBA. It wont be that hard to move him. But you wont get the value most people have thought he is worth. This should have been done 3 years ago, 2 years ago... when so many people were still fooled. 

Haven't paid attention to the Sixers all season for this very reason. Losing to the Hawks makes it even worse than I thought. Simmons is Wentz but 3X as hopeless.

Ok Doc. NOW youre going to start helping kill his value? NOW is when we need anything we can get to try to build it up!

Well if it's any consolation, the Nets got bumped last night. So I'm all for the Suns winning this season now.

Hopefully we get it done next season or we're flirting with comic relief status once again.

Geez, like I said, good luck trying to move him. Can definitely see Kyle Kuzma being a centre piece in the package PHI gets for him.

Thought this didn’t go through because of Morey?

it was because of Fertitta vetoing a trade that was basically agreed to. Simmons literally had his bags packed.

Earlier in the year, 6ers almost had Chris Paul too. But Paul said no because of lingering distrust of Morey. Because Morey promised Paul he wasnt trading people, and then Fertitta forced him to.

We got screwed by the Fertitta/Morey bitterness twice this year. 

Side note:

Anyone else happen to see Simms did a top 40 QB list and left Hurts off? Not saying I agree, but I did laugh.

Anyone left to defend Ben? Where is @justrelax

Basketball is my 4th favorite out of the big 4 with a lot of it being how easy it is to build a super team so it was nice to see Nets lose.

In large part (emphasis on large) because Harden is carrying about 20 extra pounds and his hamstring gave out. 

Yea this ain’t gonna work 

And there it is

Makes you wonder if in that moment Embiid thought to himself "I am so F'd here".

 

Is it to early to say that PHI should have drafted Ingram over Simmons?

Couple years late

Another reason I don’t like NBA, you had multiple top 3 picks in the last 10 years and came away with Evan Turner, Joel Embiid, Jahlil Okafor, Ben Simmons and Markelle Fultz. I get it’s different from NFL but man, that sucks.

They built their team around an injury plagued center and a point guard who can't shoot. The Process is trash and they deserve this.

Thank you for your ITYS. Yes, you are right and I was wrong. 

All I have to say is

Since I'm the father, my weekend will consist of fishing tomorrow morning, followed by a bike ride with my boys, then mowing the grass, followed by a nap and supper. Sunday will be church and then watching my daughter and daughter in law cooking some fat t-bones on the grill while me and the boys smoke cigars and drink some scotch/beer/rum/vodka or Jack Daniels depending on what they want.

Mission accomplished I'm happy to say.

Oh and how about some of you whiners stop reporting people and let us have a bit of freedom?
