2021 NBA Offseason

No wonder Simmons has so many shooting issues!

He is learning from Rondo!

Makes sense.

If Thanasis can get a roster spot because his brother is Giannis then Gelo should get a training camp invite because of Zo and Melo

Yeah but teams aren't going to give Gelo a shot because they hope to get Zo next time he's a free agent...

Well, they say "those who can't do, teach".

So this could work.

Gelo shots?

Well, it certainly isn’t Indiana.

Cleveland only won because LeBron came back, and Milwaukee only won because of injuries, yet Philly is the team being celebrated for its maybe success.

Some of you have your standards out of whack...

To me, Embiid is more skill and less substance. Maybe he gets a ring one day in the right system, but I wouldn't be counting my chickens before they hatch.

Who is celebrating Philly?

 

[HurricaneDij39]

Who is celebrating Philly?

Your buddy would still hire Sam Hinkie to GM the Wizards if he had the chance…(and after all these years)

 

[bksballer89]

How is anyone celebrating Philly if both posters pointed out that Philly screwed up a bit with roster moves since getting Embiid and Simmons?

Makes sense.

What drives me crazy about Simmons is that his practice form is actually decent. Better than Rondo's, for example. But he just won't shoot!

His petty pride is killing his career.

Are you expecting a rational argument from Cane?

You have issues man.

Philly set up their rebuild in an ideal way that I wish the Wizards would try. Much better than aspiring to be mediocre which is how most teams build and how the Wizards have always built.

Since Hinkie left, they have made at least half a dozen mistakes squandering assets and are still one of the better teams in the league.

I doubt they win a ring at this point.

 

[Gman]

I think we can all agree that Philly is a 4th rate town filled with trash and bums.

Every mom in Philly is a hooker. LITERALLY.

Their ability to win a championship will be determined by what they bring back in a Simmons trade. If it’s anything short of Dame or Beal Sixers essentially become a good regular season team that falls short of becoming a real contender. All that being said, I’m glad that Morey is in charge now.

don't even WANNA know what he thinks of L.A. lol...

Morey is not afraid to make the big move, that is for sure.

I always respected the job he did in Houston. Made some mistakes for sure, but always went for it.

What does this even mean? What is substance in basketball if not your skill?

That’s where the Sixers are now. It’s big move time.

Agreed. And he clearly doesn’t watch the dude. This past season he put it all together for the first time in his career. Poorly timed hot take.
