I would love to have him but pass on this deal.  Not trading Maxey.

LOL. I guess people in Utah do smoke crack. 
 

Yeah…we’d never do that.

I wouldn't do it

Maxey is NOT getting traded.

That trade is highway robbery for the jazz. No GM gives up that much for Mitchell.

I'm surprised that the writer from Utah didn't include Embiid and a 3 year supply of team Gatorade in the deal.

Please... all for some guy who couldn't even win rookie of the year over that scrub Simmons.

Wow. I didn’t even really look at their proposed trade, just ignored it when I saw Maxey included. I’m not convinced Mitchell is even a much better player than Maxey now. Then assume Maxey will improve some more going into year 3. 
 

Mitchell has him in scoring obviously but on far more shots per game. Maxey is much more efficient. If he took as many shots as Mitchell he’d be somewhere around a 26 PPG player, based on the numbers each out up last year. 

Count out Dyson Daniels who is now getting Top 5 buzz

oh yay. Just what you want to hear your 7 footer is working on.

Embiid is ready. He was an MVP candidate for a second consecutive season, and he keeps getting better. He just turned 28, so there’s plenty of time for him to add even more to his game. Sources say Embiid is already working this offseason on perimeter attacks and finishing with touch at the rim.

Harden is working on his body. Which is good.

But I was kind of expecting to hear he was working on rim protecting, and power dunks

also, key date

That Forbes article was great. Thanks.

My take away is that 76ers will sign Harden to a mutually friendly extension or just let him play out the final year if he wants to play hard ball in terms of the number of years and AAV. 

JJ getting after it

I don't like Screamin A but he is right and its not even up for debate.  Today's players whine about missed calls right after they happen and they will continue to talk to the ref for a good 15-20 seconds instead of getting back on defense.  

Ben Simmons happened in this era.  You think he could even attempt that in the 80's or 90's?  He would get laughed out of the league and probably beaten up at some point.

Hustle, on Netflix was a really fun watch. Especially for us Philly fans.  Check it out.

He gets close and takes a lot less shots AND his personality is much much better than Spider. Trading him at this point would be horribly stupid.

jj should be a gm, he seems to understand how the game is played.

Made over 110 million and absolutely loves Brooklyn so I doubt he leaves. I mean he use to travel back and forth from Philly to Brooklyn during the season. 

Hustle was terrible. I turned it off after 20 minutes.

I kind of feel like the GM situation is a purposeful satire on the Colangelo situation.
