Signed to be 3rd string C.

You should be fine with Embiid, Bamba and Harrell at C

I don’t even want him on my roster

 

[fightinfunbags]

Bamba didn't get a proper shot with Ham. Not after the injury.

You will like him. He is athletic, can defend and rebound. He didn't show it with the Lakers but he can hit the open 3 too.

My hope on Bamba is that Nurse can use him in a similar way to how he used Chris Boucher. Kind of similar dudes.

 

[The Q]

Almost impossible to trade Harden without taking on MORE money. Harden has that kicker of another 5 million taking him to 40-41 million if he’s traded so they would need to likely take back more than Harden’s current 36.5

Yeah.

The spurs about to get paid to take some more money lol

Spurs likely end up taking like Kork and Springer so you can keep Reed

Yeah and if you lose Reed....Bamba can play a little at backup PF.

That’s intriguing next to Embiid. A lot of rim protection on the floor

I don’t want to quit on Springer

 

[DJ]

Yep....

You could be better without Reed....I know you like him but Bamba gives you a lot of options.

 

[DJ]

I don’t want to quit on Springer

Haven't seen a LOT of him but I like what I have seen....he could be your next find.

 

[fightinfunbags]

Haven't seen a LOT of him but I like what I have seen....he could be your next find.

I think his upside is Bruce Brown. He needs to work on his jumper and his ability to play off ball.

 

[DJ]

He is like the 13-15th guy....LOL.

 

[trojanfan12]

He is like the 13-15th guy....LOL.

He's like The Mush from A Bronx Tale, just having him on the roster is bad luck. lol

Don't believe in that BS.

Not superstitious.

 

[DJ]

not sure if this is true or not....LOL.

Update on Sixers off season.

 

[BigKen]

Dame is denying that he said any of those things right after Steven A Smith opened his mouth and yesterday and actually insinuated the Dame told him directly that he would only go to Miami. Blazer owner supposedly to someone after he was told about Smith's declaration, "Lillard will be playing in Portland for the next two years or he isn't playing at all." He may not have meant it, but he's sending a warning to Lillard's big mouthed agent.

Dame is a liar. His agent only does what he’s told by Dame.

Yup and Stephen A isn’t going to lie about it

 

[fightinfunbags]

And it’s not like Stephen A is the only dude who had the scoop. It’s been reported all over. Dame is just pissed that in a matter of a week he’s turned himself into a villain. They’ve gotta do something about this loop hole being exploited with guys using squads to sign for the super max only to beg out a year later. It hasn’t even been a full calendar year since Dame signed his extension.

Yes this is on the league, but Silver isn’t the guy for stuff like this.
