Series Thread: 1) Miami Heat vs. 4) Philadelphia 76ers

If the '20 draft could redone where does Maxey go? Certainly not 21st.

Not just him.

Bane went #30.

I'd take both top 5.

 

[Wamu]

Top 5

That's what I'm thinking as well. He's exciting to watch.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

And with Maxey's development.....wouldn't hurt if Harden became more of a CP type and the #3 option on offense.

Unless, his decline is due to that hammy and being out of shape.....he comes back after an off season conditioning program and heals that hammy fully.....gravy.

After the Season Maxey has had, I'm afraid for the 76ers.

They are gonna be in the same situation as the Dubs with Poole.

Huge ass tax payments and other teams trying to poach your diaper dandy with a max contract offer when they hit restricted free agency.

76ers will have Tobias, Embiid making the max and they will be paying Harden 60 mil per when he's 36 years old.

Fuck that.

I'd pay Maxey before a regressed Harden.

 

[Wamu]

Bane went #30.

The scout sure evaluated both wrong,

 

[Wamu]

Ummmm, what's going on here?!?!

Just taking a guess but I think it has something to do with Ojb81 saying he could stand toe to toe with PJ Tucker in a fight.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

I mean, some of the guys picked too 5 have had injury issues.

So, we don't know what they can/will develop into.

* Williams and Wiseman *

But, outside of Edwards and Ball...

Maxey and Bane are currently better than everyone in that draft class.

They won't have to pay Maxey till after Harris is gone.

'23-24.

It happens.

Remember how people thought the Raptors were insane picking Scottie Barnes so high?

Sometimes guys games are just better suited for the pros.

Look at Donovan Mitchell.

Speaking of draft picks I've very happy that the 76ers took Fultz # 1 and the Lakers took Ball # 2 back in '17.

Always found it interesting how some big name CBB players fizzle out in the NBA while other players go on to have good/great careers.

'23-24.

Tobias isn't off the books until 24/25.

Maxey can sign a extension after next Season.

So, unless he gets traded, they will Have Tobias, Embiid, Harden robust deals on the books when he is eligible to sign.

It just won't kick in until the following year.

According to this, he off the books after the '23-24 season.

Again: Makes me wonder wtf is going on in Philly where back to back #1 overall guys are season long DNP-Anxiety Attacks.

Fultz and Simmons crumbled mentally and physically.

Hey just wait until Morey overpays Mr. strip club. That will be another 76ers mistake.

Letting Harden play out next season to see if he can rebound from that hammy is the smart play but who knows what Morey will do.

If I was a betting woman, I'd say he's going to pay him this Summer.

ETA: Dude, the link you posted shows Tobias still has 2 years left on his deal.

22-23 and 23-24.

You are aware that this is the 2021-22 Season, right?

 

[Ojb81]

Here's what you said in comment # 827. That's acting like a tough guy.

"I promise you he thinks twice about a second throw down with me"

Also saw in another comment you said served in Afghanistan. A true thank you to you and all that have served. But if you had the opportunity to fight Tucker how would you get the better of him, by shooting him? He's no chump.

Never a good look to go on a sports site and say you could beat someone up like that.

Again, I was responding to what numbnuts said.
What exactly should I say? "Gee whiz, yer prolly right, he's such big strong man, why gosh, he'd give me the thrashing of a lifetime!" I never said I could beat him up, you retard, can you read?? And lol at equating serving overseas with shooting someone. I'm guessing you're the type that if you were walking down the street and you saw Tucker coming the opposite direction, you'd immediately cross the street, am I right?

 

[DJ Fieri]

Heck, if Harden doesn't rebound next season.....let him walk.

That'll be another year under Maxey's belt and he looks like he can be a solid #2 next to Embiid and Harris is capable of putting up 16-18ppg as the #3. Focus on getting a good bench and let Harden walk if he wants to be get paid crazy and he isn't the same player.

That's what I meant, he has 2 years left.

Thought we understood that, sorry for the confusion.
