F al horford

I think it's fair to see he basically just phoned it in when he was here. 

Ugh..... Kate and Alaa 

Aaaaaand...another loss.

I've posted this verbatim multiple times about the 76ers.  It's not really an "I told you so" since just about everyone here always agreed and thought the same thing.

Ever since that Kawhi Leonard shot dropped, the reality of the writing on the wall has been apparent for anyone who wants to see it.  The 76ers aren't winning a title with this group.  Fun team, valiant effort to build the squad...but it's not happening.  Embiid will never be healthy enough or full tilt enough late in the year, deep in playoff series and they lack the resources to get adequate stars around him.  We just know it's not happening.  If you are binary fan, as I usually am...once the potential to grow into a championship team is gone, then it's hard to do anything but cash out, collect the resources you can, while you can...and start over.

But if I were the GM...it'd be a different story.  You trade Embiid...he's going to go for 60 cents on the dollar to a team that DOES have pieces.  And he might win a title.  And then you are the NBA's biggest punch line.  So why stick your neck out there just to start the rebuild a few years earlier?  Shuffle the deck chairs on the Titanic and enjoy some ill-fated runs into the second round while cheering on one of the best players in the NBA.

Feel better now Jimmy?

This game made me feel old.  Not because we lost another close game but more so that  Kevin Love has gray hair and Cody Zeller is missing half of his. 

 

 

 

 

 

Looks like Noel was bought out.

Didn't want him at the trade deadline,  but he sure would provide more value than Dedmon.

has dedmon even played yet?    

this team isn't fun to watch, imo. slow paced, not athletic, folds in crunch time...just not fun. the remaining schedule is brutal so a total collapse is not out of the question. 

1. glenn's sheety offense

2. they still lack players who can create shots

3. both

Bill Simmons talked about the Embiid to the Knicks rumor again and Harden to the Heat.

Knicks got tons of picks then try to do a sign and trade with Rockets for Tate or steal Eason
