Yea it didn’t let me add that in so wasn’t sure how that worked but if we can dump a larger salary of a bum on a guy with potential and a small salary I’m all for it.

Yeah agree.  I don't think I'd trade Giddy for Simmons if I was OKC. He's already looking light years better than Simmons on offense. It's wishful thinking.

An 8th grader can look light years better than Simmons on offense, just sayin........

Yeah, no one is trading their top prospects for Simmons.

Sad but true.  If Simmons is winning one part of this battle, it’s the continuing self-devaluation that will lower his market price and screwing the Sixers out of his max value.

Morey held onto Ben as Ben and his camp gave their best shot so he isn't giving up for peanuts now or never.

He also had China down his throat a few years ago, this Ben drama is nothing to him so be prepared for this to drag out.

asking for brown in a ben trade is pretty unrealistic.  as is thinking you'll get ben for marcus smart & filler.

My imagination tells me a more realistic deal with Boston would be for Smart and Pritchard, or something like that.

Maxey is awesome

I caught one on Thursday. Which was awesome because the one I caught last time is stating to have the graphic peel. Perfect timing on the replacement.

They should toss out those Mister Softee t’s at the next one

I feel confident in saying Maxey is a future all-star. Kid just keeps getting better, showing that work ethic we’ve been hearing about since the day he was drafted. 
 

I have to go back and see what I said exactly before the season, but I believe my prediction for him if he starts at the point all year was somewhere around 18 points per game and 6-7 assists. That seems very attainable with the way he is progressing. 

 

Paul now trying to double down on the mental health angle, it’s the only play he has. Problem is his client is known soft and a **** regardless of his current mental health 

The thing is, they never said they are demanding him to play.  Quite the opposite.  They said they want him to go with a team-guided mental health program to help him get better while having accountability for his progress.

Boohoo. Cooperate with the team when they are trying to help you with your "mental health issue” and it won’t be a problem. He won’t do this because he’s full of crap and making a mockery of people with ACTUAL mental health issues.
