tobi is so bad on both ends...just killing them.

falling to .500

Losers

Toe Bias.....

3-17 from the field 

-17. +/-

Len Bias probably would have been a better option 

Trade Embiid.  Start the process over again.

Who was Durant talking to at the end of the game? 

Did something happen earlier that I missed?

Yeah, i've probably watched 3-4 games so far this season. Convince me I'm missing out on anything, other than an earlier death.

I’ve watched damn near every Sixers games since the early 80s. This year is harder to watch than some of the worst Sixers teams over the years.

Maxey is fun to watch.  He’s still pretty raw though.

Its not as bad as the process years but, yeah its pretty bad. Watching the development of Maxey (which has stalled lately)  has been the lone bright spot

 

I despise tanking, but hopefully it leads to better players, and a new coach.

For me it’s worse.  Then, we had numerous young players developing and legit hope to be good.  This year is nothing but hoping for a miracle trade of Simmons.  I guess I enjoy the ascent  more than the decline, even if the team is actually better.

are there still those who think the process was worth it ?

You mean the tanking? 

The team has made enough dumb trades and choosing Ben over Jimmy since then to demolish this team to what it is now.

Had we known it would be cut short and screwed up by sucky GMs after Hinkie, no. But it was the right idea and would have loved to see it allowed to go to completion.

The process was worth it.  The league forcing Hinkie out killed the huge net of picks he procured and destroyed the intent of it.

The process wasn’t the problem. The idea and doing what they did was the smart decision. They were going to be stuck in purgatory and eventually trade away those pieces and ultimately either be stuck further in purgatory or eventually get to the point of bottoming out.

 The execution of the process (particularly picks and stupid signing of horford and re-signing of harris) was Bad. First not letting hinkie finish what he started, poor draft selections and then bad gms making bad decisions like letting butler walk, signing horford, trading picks for fultz when there were some in the organization that didn’t want him, trading bridges and re-signing harris.

By the time horford happened the process had already ended. 

Would have loved to see how Hinkie would have spent that money,  and all those picks.
