HazletonEagle Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Glenn Robinson is getting waived. Could be just what we need. I feel like he won't be interested in coming back though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rambo Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 That March schedule is brutal. Bucks on the 2nd night of a b2b and that west coast swing is gonna be tough starting a 6 game road trip on the 2nd of a b2b. Mid April stretch of Nets, Clips, GS, Suns and then Bucks twice on the road will be another tough stretch. At least that's not all on the road.

The end of the schedule looks fairly easy but they're going to have a really tough, long stretch. 26 minutes ago, DaEagles4Life said: They need a real scorer off the bench.

Khani1 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Durant's hamstring strain is something to watch. Hammys never seem to heal fully without a ton of rest. I wonder if he will make a full recovery by the playoffs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't know how the Sixers expect to stop them offensively with three of the best one vs one players to play the game. You absolutely need Ben to score 25 a night if face them in the playoffs. They beat the Clippers without KD last Sunday. I am a bit surprised how well Kyrie and Harden have played so well together already. Then Bruce Brown being this junkyard dog for them, highly underrated in the role he is playing. I saw they signed Shumpert and Andre Roberson so far. Roberson was the elite defender for the Thunder way back when, but absolutely miserable shooter. His first 3 point shot the other day was an airball by 2 feet. He is somehow worse than Thybulle at shooting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Lowrie put us over the top and make us a legit contender for this year? He would be a rental and one of the young guys plus a 1st will be gone.

e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Those wanting Lavine the bulls are currently the 6 seed. Kind of have to root for the bulls to go through a rough patch by the deadline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, but even with Lowery I question can they beat a healthy Nets team. Morey has to be asking himself that every trade. I think Lowry is still underrated and similar style of play to Chris Paul. Old dude, but doesn't rely on athleticism to beat you. Just a really good basketball player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of have to root for the bulls to go through a rough patch by the deadline Watched LaVine the yesterday and dude is a legit scorer from all three levels. You can tell he is a willing defender and puts in the effort, but something just doesn't click on that side of the ball. Not sure he processes everything fast enough or what the issue is, but he tries. One play he tried to double KAT at the high post and left his defender under the hoop for a layup. Just makes no sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. There's always going to be some reason not to go for it. LeBron, the Nets, etc. But the entire Process was a waste if you don't go all in when the assets you drafted (Embiid and Simmons) are at their peak. Maxey is great, but he's on the first flight to Toronto to make this happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipples Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 F it, pull the trigger on Lowry. This year and next may be their best shot at a title. They need to go all in before the deadline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazletonEagle Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I'm in on Lowry, as I've said he seems like he would provide the same defense and scoring (16-18ppg) most nights as Butler. And I'm in enough that I'd give one of the young guys if we had to. But that doesn't match salary. You have to either give up all of our expirings, or trade Ben. I don't think it's worth trading Ben for. So I'm out on that. I'd trade Green, Scott, and Shake and a 1st if that works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khani1 Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 So it is 1. Trade for Lowry by giving up Maxey, 1st and fillers and let Lowry walk after this season. 2. Trade for Lowry by giving up Maxey, 1st and fillers and resign Lowry (he is looking for 2 years, 60 million and would be 35 and 36 years old for that contract). 3. Trade for a different player.

He is a free agent after this year. So would he be in our future plans or just a run we make this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowry seems to be the only player we are pretty sure of getting traded. I'd give 1 FRP in the Lowry trade knowing that he may walk. I'd let him test free agency and if he doesn't get the 2/60 offer elsewhere bring him back at some lesser price. Or give him 2/60 with a team option for year 2 (and don't pick it up). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
