Not just sixers fans. Anyone that doesn't fellate the league can call a spade a spade because they aren't biased. It's an emotional thing for guys like you.

Nailed it. It's all I think about.

Do you know the actual draft lottery process?

Like @fightinfunbags said, what matters is not just getting the #1 pick, but getting it on a year when there is a clear-cut, can't miss prospect like Tim Duncan and David Robinson. That's what makes the Spurs so lucky. Yes, they haven't had the top pick in 26 years, but when they get it, they seem to hit gold.

The year the Sixers drafted Simmons, 2016, who else could they have gotten? Well, Brandon Ingram and Jaylen Brown were the two next picks. Both would have been better in hindsight. But Philly took the guy considered the consensus #1 pick, despite some red flags they should have heeded about his love of the game and work ethic.

The year they drafted Fultz, they could have taken Jayson Tatum or Lonzo Ball, the next two selections. Again, Fultz was viewed widely as the top guy but he basically wilted under the pressure and nearly had a mental breakdown.

It was the league's hackman. That was the original point. Colangelo fucked up those drafts on purpose while he talked shit on embiid from "his wife's twitter." Just like the league wanted him to do.

Hindsight clarifies that Colangelo wanted them to have psychological problems. What happened in his office with them? Or with the therapists he picked for them? We'll never know. All we know now is that the league wanted him to fuck shit up.

So you say shit that is wrong and then post a fag. Where are you going?

You're a very angry little man.

Are you usually such an asshole or is your shitty team making you burst into a fit of rage?

 

[eaglesnut]

Do you know the actual draft lottery process?

I had a camera in the backroom. Unfortunately, it failed like the jeffrey epstein cameras. Good thing he wasn't killed by the government and really actually killed himself and made sure the cameras were off first.

Be the star?

LMFAO

NBA rumors: James Harden to decline last year of contract, will only entertain suitors with a strong roster that will allow him to be the star.​

James Harden to decline last year of contract, will only entertain suitors with a strong roster that will allow him to be the star

Philadelphia 76ers star James Harden intends to decline his $35.6 million player option to become an unrestricted free agent this summer in order to secure a long-term deal, league sources tell Ble…

It's good to want things, but reality has to set in. If he's the star, how strong can the roster be? Maybe he's egomaniacal enough to think that Houston is a playoff contender, just add James.

So that's a no, and you're really just complaining about a process you know nothing about. Sounds about right.

How do you sleep at night with all the people staring in your windows, hacking your phone and internet, etc etc?

 

[trojanfan12]

Up to the league as in fixed? Come on.

And dumbass casuals like the one you quoted are a big part of why I think they need to get rid of the lottery. There's already enough bullshit with even some die hards constantly crying about the refs...they don't need claims of a "rigged" draft on top of it.

It just gives the lesser lights more fodder.

I have nothing to hide. I sleep very well.

Dear Rob Pelinka,

If and when you start getting phone calls from Lebron and AD asking for Harden...say "How did Russell Westbrook work out?"

Then hang up.

Sincerely,

Lakers Fans

If only the camera didn't fail I'd have my proof

No the league didn't do that, but nice try.

As opposed to being a below room temperature I.Q. thing for guys like you.

 

[trojanfan12]

Hey dumbass the league gave the Celtics the number one pick. Colangelo traded up for it. Get your facts right.

lol

So they not only fucked up the pick...they gave up assets to do it.
