June 14Jun 14 Im out on Yabu. He is a very good player on a winning team at age 29. We won’t be a "winning” team for at least 3 years.

If the sixers stink again, I think when you get to the trade deadline his contract is likely going to be movable, title contending teams would want him and you can get some assets for him. That said i think he leaves
June 15Jun 15 After that Bane trade, we got no shot at Trey Murphy. The stupid Knicks messed up trade value in the nba.Edit: I blame us actually. If we kept Bridges, none of this would be happening.

If we kept Bridges, none of this would be happening.Helps down the road if the Sixers have to or want to deal Maxey with how the market is for dealing a player. I still think there’s some sort of discussion going on between the pelicans and teams sitting ahead of them. The pelicans news comes out saying they really want a Bailey. Not sure why the pelicans want that released so I’m guessing someone talking with the pelicans. Then the Sixers a day later has a release they really like VJ and would take him at 3. Also the Sixers shouldn’t want that put out there. I think it was to drive the value up on 3 by saying we love this kid and willing to keep the pick to take him so better over pay if you want to move up. Then a 2 days later report comes out about what the pelicans want for Murphy in a trade. Imo i think teams ahead of them in the draft know they want to move up and likely shooting for the stars with asking for 7 and Murphy to move down.
June 15Jun 15 Just came to say, if that's the price for Bane, then no one should be untouchable on thus 6ers team. Not even Maxey.

Not even Maxey.I think he is untouchable for this year and probably next year. After that, I agree. Would like to see how he, McCain, Edwards, Grimes and whoever they draft/trade for this off season, play together.Maxey might not reach his ceiling for 2 years. Would like to see what that looks like.

I dont mind seeing Maxey and McCain grow together, and potentially Grimes as well.But if you look at the Bane trade and consider the amount of 1st round picks, and swaps we can accumulate from trading Maxey and McCain, possibly PG, and Embiid.... you can completely rebuild with about 16 first round picks over the next few years. lol.

No matter any scenario, the Sixers are screwed. The #3 pick is losing value because of this. Maybe McCain’s grandson can lead us to a championship.

Will always be a team or two that fall in love with the what if, it happens every single year. The value is still there.

They have 3 good scorers aside from Embiid and George. Load up on lengthy wings and bigs and try to build a complete roster for once. I'm fine with moving down to 8 if they get all of brooklyns 1st round picks as well.
June 17Jun 17 The new ESPN Mock has more info on the Sixers leaning Edgecombe over Bailey .... Edgecombe takes over this spot from Ace Bailey in ESPN's mock draft after a positive visit to Philadelphia, where sources say he made a strong impression in a private workout as well as in meetings with the front office and ownership. He appears to be "the leader in the clubhouse" currently, with Bailey losing momentum after refusing to visit, initially unsatisfied with his search for a proven pathway to development. However, Bailey is scheduled to work out in Philadelphia at the end of this week, and we'll see if he's able to sway the tides in his favor.The feedback from his interviews at the draft combine in Chicago was not all that positive, with some teams expressing concern about his lack of preparation and focus. NBA executives say Bailey has been polarizing in internal front office conversations because of questions about his feel for the game and lack of polish, creating a wider draft range than initially anticipated.Surrounding the hyper-explosive Edgecombe with prolific 3-point shooters such as Tyrese Maxey, Jared McCain, Quentin Grimes and Paul George could add another dimension to the Sixers' offense, especially if the team buys into the development of his passing ability long term.Should Edgecombe not be selected here, most teams expect him to be drafted one pick later by Charlotte at No. 4, but he has also worked out in front of Washington in the predraft process, an indication there might be some trade scenarios in play with the Wizards moving up, potentially as high as No. 3. -- Givony

They it came out soon after that Ace was coming too. Don't now if he actually did it not though considering today's news.
June 18Jun 18 The Pelicans have acquired the Pacers 1st round pick. So now the Pelicans have pick 7, and 23 this year. Could that be a deal sweetner to move up with the 6ers?7, 23, and Murphy?

If we learned anything from the Finals is you need a dog at the guard position to disrupt opposing offenses
