You going to the Phillies game tonight?

I was then there was a massive monsoon that hit and i didn’t want to get stuck driving through it cause it was pretty bad visibility. And it is expected to hit again close to when the game was gonna finish. Gonna try to get there tomorrow night cause it’s not expected to rain.

I think tomorrow is Ben Simmons appreciation night.

Should bring a sign the covid shot wasn’t the shot we were talking about you getting.

Beasley got out today.  I figured this would get brought back up.

I'd settle for less, just knowing Ben would be sent to basketball purgatory.

That doesn't help us out.  I still want a championship or at least to be contenders.  The waiting game is annoying but necessary.  Someone will bite eventually.

It ain't happening.  Get what you can for him now.  He's done a number on his trade value.  

 

 

And when I say, "settle for less" I meant Edwards and draft picks being that "less".  Not less than Edwards.

Edwards is a stud in the making.  You would be pleasantly surprised if we got him.  His ceiling is high.  That trade would be a big win for us.  I don't think the Wolves are dumb enough to trade him for Simmons though.

[76ers] We have waived Rayjon Tucker.

Thank god.  I mean dunking is a basketball skill but when it's the only one you possess you're pretty useless.

agreed...tucker was a waste of a 2-way contract. not much potential there. 

Just send this dude to the Celtics, ie. McNabb trade to the Redskins 2.0. I'll take Marcus Smart a youngish player and a few picks. They can keep Tatum and Brown. 

I just don't sweat playing this guy and legitimately want to be able to to mercilessly boo the ever living crap out of this poser as many times as I can. Out of pure spite, and his camp acting like he's the victim here. He isn't the victim and brought this all on himself. I need him to know that the fans know it, and he's dead to us.  

Meh.

Reminds me of Mike James who played for the Nets last year. 

What you get with bench guys. Hopefully they have one great attribute so they can play and his is scoring.

I liked him for the Sixers when he came out last year.  He was a volume scorer at a small college but an older prospect.  He ended up going late in round 2 last year.  

G League stats don't look bad from last year but they don't look awe-inspiring either.  Like most 2 way contracts, it will probably end up meaningless but I'd rather take a chance on him becoming a scorer off the bench than Tucker.

As things presently stand, the Philadelphia 76ers have 17 players under contract; 15 on regular NBA deals, and two on two-way contracts. If the NBA season started today, they’d have a full roster and surely be ready to make another push for the top seed in an increasingly contentious Eastern Conference.

The only problem? The Sixers’ roster isn’t complete.

Excluding the $8.2 million trade exception Daryl Morey has to use or lose before the 9th of September, the Sixers still haven’t signed Charles Bassey – the 6-foot-11, 235-pound center the team paid $2 million to draft 53rd overall – to his NBA contract and thus have to make some move to free up a roster spot or renounce the Western Kentucky Hilltopper’s rights altogether.

Considering the aforementioned $2 million purchase of his draft rights, it’s probably going to be the former.

 

While this impending contractual impasse is effectively a technicality, as Bassey will be under team control this fall and even took his rookie press photos in a #23 Sixers jersey, said still-unsigned deal has reportedly left his agent unwilling to let the center take part in the Vegas Summer League, even if a string of strong performances could be incredibly helpful when it comes to earning a role this fall.
