The fact that Philly had enough assets to acquire two all-star caliber players in the same season, something by all accounts should not be able to happen, further proves how badly Minnesota got short-changed for Butler. Because good luck guarding anyone with a Towns/Saric frontline...:doh:

Joel Embiid has profane evaluation of referees following Sixers' close loss to the Celtics

Embiid can bitch all he wants (it's just the guy he is), but the fact is that while Philly may have better individuals, Boston still has the better team.

Memo to Tobias Harris regarding your impending free agency
- You won't be exploited to all the bullshit drama here in Indiana that you are currently in Philly. The scene is strictly about basketball here.

The assets were not just in exchange for All-Star level talent players, but All-Star level talent on expiring contracts. There's no guarantees for their return to the team, so the asset exchange is significantly lower. If Butler or Harris were still on 2 or 3 year deals with reasonable market contracts the ask price is significantly higher. That's why Philly was able to procure both players.

Also if I had to guess I'd say Philly would elect to keep Harris over Butler. Harris is a much better fit overall to the team based on a myriad of different aspects, but most notably the surly nature of Butler could cause problems down the road.

just imagine what they could have done if silver didn't make them get rid of Hinkie. Fucking BC traded away a first to move up two spots for the first overall pick (in a fairly decent draft) to grab a guy they traded for Jonathan fucking Simmons. #TTP

But our fans will wish grotesque injury upon you should you ever choose to leave.

The saddest part of it all is that after all these years on this board, the rest of you seem to expected better from the OP.

Shut up, for Fagadelphian!

:D Sorry... sometimes you just gotta laugh.

Iknowrite?

I mean, there are probably 100 better choices than Fagadelphian.
How does that get to the top of the list????

I shudder to wonder at the real estate we are buying up in that head....

You have to admire his tenacity. Most people when completely wrong on something try to fade into the background. This guy doubles down with a new thread, and adds new layers of stupid on top.

It's kinda weird how obsessed with the Sixers he is.

I've been following the Sixers for 40 years. I don't recall ever viewing the Pacers as a rival of any kind. They are mostly harmless.
