July 1Jul 1 6 million a year was affordable for the 6ers. They did get Watford slightly cheaper which is always important to Harris.
July 1Jul 1 Author yabu can’t defend or rebound so I get it…thought he’d get a better contract though.
July 1Jul 1 Plenty of upset philly fans. Yabusele was a good story. Olympic Yabu was dominant. 6ers Yabu was a nice bench player and ok starter, and seems about equivalent with Watford. I hate dopey Daryl, but Im not upset over this.re-signing Grimes is the key to the offseason for me.Then, if he can pull some magic like trading Drummond and signing Bol Bol I will feel like the team improved. And, has an answer for all those games where Joel is injured.
July 1Jul 1 very good points raised in discussion that the whole reason the 6ers didnt trade Yabusele was because they thougth they could re-sign him. They could have, but chose not to. Missed opportunity to acquire an asset. Yet another dopey Daryl fail.
July 1Jul 1 If McCain, Edwards, VJ and Tristan Wayford workout, it will negate all the dumb crap Morey did earlier. Fingers crossed!

What else can we do for bigs?Watford seems like the direct replacement.And Drummond and Bona are the backup 5s.Ideally trade drummond and sign Bol Bol. Might be the best backup 5 move we can make this offseason.Otherwise.... bring back Bassey? He went to SA and dominated, then fell out of their rotation. Not sure whats his deal.Aichuwa.

July 1Jul 1 Maybe we can trade Drummond to the Pacers now lol. Why is the Grimes signing taking so long?

When he realizes hes not getting the 25M a year offer anywhere, he will probably sign here.I also think the 6ers will likely use their exception first, while under the tax, before signing him to his more pricey deal with bird rights. Im not read up this year on tax payer vs non-tax payer exception amounts, or biannual exceptions or whatever. But just my suspicion that they are using whichever exception first and then signing Grimes to his contract. Some of that (which exception is available) may depend on a drummond trade first as well.It has been Morey's MO to wait on moves that take forever, miss out on talent in the meantime, and then pick from scraps.
