Let's Just Make Shit Up

Yes, you're one and only warning.

And no, stating that the Sixers have a bunch of players with very little to no time on the court isn't discrediting them, it's a statement of fact.

According to comment # 881 the 76ers are miles ahead of the Lakers. Not sure I'd say Philly is miles ahead of L.A. since they only won 2 more games than your team last year.

Winning wasn't a priority for either team last year.

He's basing it on 2 players. One that can't stay healthy and one that no one has ever seen play because he was hurt.

Not sure what the dudes issue is, but being acknowledged by Lakers fans as the tallest midget, sure does seem important to him.

Winning hasn't been a priority for the 76ers for a while now.

Then why mention last years wins?

Maybe next year Philly will start looking better. They've been bad for a while now.

Did you even read that other comment of mine you quoted? The reason I mentioned last years W's is someone said that the 76ers are miles ahead of the Lakers. I don't agree w/ that.

I did, but then you referenced how many wins they had as the reason why.

The 76ers are miles ahead IF Embiid can stay healthy.
My guess is he can't/won't.
As far as Simmons, he was basically handed a year of R&R.
No reason to think he will be injured or won't be real good.

What do you mean warning?

It was way beyond... some Sixers have little to no time on the court. It was...
I wouldn't want either Simmons or Embiid on the Lakers (which is so moronic I don't even know why I'm arguing). I guess you don't want Ball either cause he hasn't played.
The Sixers are a dysfunctional mess.

Saying you wouldn't want Simmons is so incredibly ridiculous I don't even know what to say. You wouldn't want a young, supreme talent that only had a 4 week injury. I mean come on. Maybe he will be a star or maybe flame out but to say, "No, I don't want a guy who had a minor injury" even if he is a TREMENDOUS prospect is just showing me how close minded you're being. So if Ball breaks his wrist tomorrow you're going to hope and pray the Lakers cut him immediately... right.

I'll tell you why I said that. The Lakers look like the have a disappointing #2 pick from last year and all ready gave up on the #2 pick the year before. To me it looks like they currently have one elite prospect.

The Sixers have 3 elite prospects but one of them looks like he could easily be a top 5 player in the league. Back to back #1 picks that will be on the court this year with one of them being the highest rated prospect in the last 15 years. There #4 Saric completely out played the Lakers best player last year. They have the lowest payroll in the NBA and either the Lakers 1st in 2018 or the Kings first in 2019 (two very bad teams). The Lakers don't have a 1st next year and will be a lottery team.

So... one team has 1 elite prospect (Ball) with no 1st and one team has 3 elite prospects with one of them looking like a top 5 player in the league if he can stay healthy, tons of cap space and own the rights to two very bad teams lottery pick.

Now do you see why I think there's a difference?

Thank you for bringing your opinion. We, in Philly, are all hoping and praying Embiid can stay healthy because he is a flat out SUPERSTAR... But his injury history is bad and I'm hoping he's not another Bill Walton. These Lakers fans saying they wouldn't even want Simmons because of a minor injury... I don't even know how to respond to that. To me, outside of Balls potential, I don't think the a Lakers have anyone on their team better then Saric.

Trust me.
I hope he and everyone else on every team stays healthy.
Hopefully he doesn't join the list of 'what ifs'.

Fultz getting used right now by Dante Exum and D Mitchell.

Summer League, lol. Guy looks like he has zero interest in playing defense.

Yeah, its his 2nd game ever and had 23, 5 and 4 while taking over in the 4th scoring 13 and bringing them back from a deep hole. Jeez.
He does have a long way to go and needs to work on his handles and ball security. But he looked like his could be very good if he is focused, humble and works hard, that I don't know. He has had some spectacular blocks. Let the guy develop. A year ago this time he was sitting in high school English class.

Dude, your a mod is what I'm guessing. I said the ideas were stupid. Go across this entire site and see hundreds of people ripping each other. If you're going to suspend me cause I'm going after you or the Lakers that's the epitome of little dick syndrome. All I see on these threads is disrespect and you're cool with it unless someone does it to you. Laaaaaaame.

My warning? You gonna call the Internet police?
No one is discrediting the Sixers. Hahaha

In case you haven't figured this out, Trojanfan is the moderator in here and will ban your sorry ass if you misbehave

Just out of curiosity what has Simmons done that has caused you to be so high on him?

Yeah I figured it out. I can post links to 1000s of people being disrespectful, homophobic and completely racist and that no problem around here... but if I say it's idiotic to think the Lakers are currently better then Philly... I get a ban warning. Sad.
