So pathetic. I mean even if they get in the play-in they have no shot this year. Keeping their pick is priority it seems

I'm a Buckeye homer but I'd take D Lo all day

They both suck on D but when you got a guy shooting volume like that and he's 33 from 3 and not an efficient ball handler...

He's borderline a negative assett.

The Warriors on/off indicate the team is much better with him on the bench.
That's pretty much what I said. If you prefer DLo good for you but he didn't fit either. Masterful move trading him for Wiggins and the pick that became Kuminga.

Another reason why the Sixers may consider using the Harris expiring for a big fish with Maxey being involved in the deal. Part of what makes Maxey great is the value of his contract. I don’t know about a 40 million dollar 3rd option right when I’m ready to part with Tobias Harris.

Another masterful move?

Putting business before friendship.

If the players had their way, you would have kept Avery Bradley over The Mitten.

Sometimes it’s good to say no.

Not so fast….lol

The Mavs can offer Irving as much as $272 million over five years, more than any other team due to possessing his Bird rights. But Cuban was noncommittal when asked if the Mavs could be outbid for Irving in free agency this summer. “I don’t know,” Cuban said. “I guess there’s always too high a price, depending, but now with the new CBA, it’s a different world
If anyone gives that idiot that much money I might snap lol

Yeah not ideal. You would want Maxey as a #2 paying him that much but once Harden is out though, Maxey will be the #2. Can he be a clear #2 on a contending team is the question…might not matter if they don’t win it all. If they don’t win in the next couple seasons, Embiid could be out.

Bro, I just said this 2 pages back…lol

I was led to believe it was a Poole/Barrett max.

I would not pay Maxey 40 mil per.
Like Fight and others have said, what are you getting in return for Harris, Maxey + picks then. I said Beal earlier but I agree with Tlance, he isn’t the same player. Is he pushing you over the hump with Harden aging?
It comes down to who becomes available.

Dunno.

They may need to wait until December to trade for a guy.

Fighting mentioned Harry B.

Philly would need to sign and trade for him, which equals hard cap.

If they wait until December, maybe the Kings are ready to part ways and give Murray the keys.

I don’t see Miami trading Butler unless he demands it.

They have a conundrum for sure.

Giving Maxey 200 mil would conflate that imo…

Is he a pg, sg or combo?

Who’s looking for one of those at a 40 mil price tag that would give them what they need in return?

This is how you avoid drama.

Now, leave this man alone.


Either sitting the second half cooled his jets or this bubbles up again if the unlikely Lakers/Clips series happens in the playoffs.

He's only past it because there's no games left, lol.

Ugh.

That's a tough call.

Really just comes down to ownership wanting to pay out the ass on luxury

How bad do you want to win

Beal is the move that should make eveyone happy

This bitch…..

Okay, I’m done…lol

It will be a cold day in hell before I rescue Ronnie for another rando.


It’s funny she said they’d go to the Obamas,

He didn’t pick them either

He had all the 1 seeds



(he also picked Iona over UConn on the mens side…)

Barrett 4 years 120, Herro 4 years 130, Poole 4 years 140 is where Maxey should be slotted. Those are three good comps. If I’m Maxey though, I go ridiculous in my demands to force my way out. If he’s going to grow from here, he can’t be a 3rd option. He needs his own team. That’s next step for him. He will grow even if he fails and resets himself into being a great Robin at 27-28.

Probably the Wiz players like Kuz too.

Monte Morris is not him.

They need a lead guard and Kuz wants to be the man anyway.

They aren’t winning dick with Kuz as the #1.

But, that was the case with Beal too.

So, might as well get younger.

If they don’t get out of round 2 (which is looking likely) I could see him trying to force a trade depending upon what it looks like and if Harden is coming back. Depending upon how it goes, I could see both Harden and Embiid wanting to run it back together with adding through the Harris expiring.
