I agree with your thinking , except for the violence. I'm a lover, not a fighter. I'll leave that up to you.

Colangelo is a piece of shit and so is adam silver for making him our GM in a very corrupt process.

May they both die horrible deaths like the ambassador to libya. Tortured, sodomized, burned and mutilated.
E-Nut, please tell us how you really feel.

I thought Fultz looked ok last night. He took shots, soon enough they will start dropping. He will be ok, but Tatum is a flat out stud.

What do you think of Fultz? I thought he looked ok last night. He might turn into a player.
Fultz improved as the game progressed. The fans were cheering him on, and that helped his confidence!

He still will never be as god as Tatum, who was the perfect fit. He will haunt us for the next 5-10 years.
Thanks BC!

Haven't caught a game yet. I was in Chicago since the season started. Heard he made a 3. That's a better start than last year.

Ainge went on record saying that he would have stayed at 1 and taken Tatum if Colangelo did not commit to Fultz and agreed to trade up for Fultz only. No way you guys were getting Tatum in that draft.

Imagine how I felt as a Raptor fan... we had Colangelo as GM for 7 friggin' years! And there was a lot of behind-the-scenes shenanigans with his father Jerry and David Stern at the time getting involved so golden boy Bryan could get the Raptors GM job. Bunch of BS.

Long live Rob Babcock.

I still remember hoping the sixers got Childress or Iguodala in the 2004 draft. Was looking bleak and then... Rafael Araujo.

Blame that one the President/ownership at the time... they had a guy with a real estate background (Richard Peddie) that was given autonomy to make basketball decisions and he hired Babcock. Rafael Araujo... yikes - we've come a long way from those days!

In Masai We Trust!

Should be an interesting one tomorrow with the Raps coming off a putrid loss. Hopefully KL is rested and can play another game. It appears he might need every 4th game or so as a Kawhi Day. Good luck Sixer fans, it's nice to see you guys relevant again.

I see Fultz developing into a nice "role player" ... but I don't see him developing into the star many were hoping for when we traded up for him. He is not an "alpha" ... to much of a laid back type attitude.

Something had to get done ... Fultz is a role player, Roco and Saric were way too inconsistent night in and night out. Butler is that hopefully that 3rd piece to the puzzle we have to have ... let's see how things shake out from here on out.

I read that the trade also includes Patton.

Well they had to do something.

Embiid will be worn out by February if he has to carry these guys every night.

This move helps us on both ends ... we "desperately" needed another guy who can score consistently aside from Embiid. We also add a top defender to a D that has not been playing good D this year. I think this is the perfect situation for Butler and will really facilitate things for a guy like Simmons. RoCo was a frustrating player as he was wildly inconsistent with his shooting as was Saric. Saric was also a big reason for our struggles defensively ... hopefully Chandler is ready for more minutes soon.
