    They traded my Boban???Now I have to find a new avatar.

    I bet Tom Brady had something to do with this considering my other thread.

    Now they just need to pick up a few guys on the buyout market for depth purposes. Philly could be the favorite in the East now.

    They needed this because Butler is not resigning.

    Tobias is basically a cheaper version of Butler. Will be interesting to see how Butler and Harris play together as they have similar games.

    How many teams in the nba have a real
    PG? He handles the ball the most -
    Lebron can’t be a point guard? His passing skills is way better then any real PG in the game - is curry really consider a PG?

    You've obviously never played ball so I'll explain. A point forward is great and all but over the course of a game and a season it wears on your body if you aren't suited like a swift and smaller point guard than a point forward. Running the offense is about tempo and rythym when to push and when to control. It requires a lot more wear on the body than just the one or two times you might see it on tv

    Once again why do the Sixers need a real PG? When Simmons handle the ball - how many teams in the nba have a real PG?

    Elimination game in the Eastern conference finals and Simmons is exhausted needs a few minutes before the rest of the 4th quarter

    You gonna run out tj McConnell or bust fultz to run your offense and setup? Gimme a break, that's game over right there for them

    Boston just owns the Sixers - plus Simmons is young

    Harris is a free agent in a couple of months and they weren't keeping him. They just got some number 1's for a rental and if they don't make the playoffs this season, they get to keep their pick they traded to Boston for a another year.

    Clippers made out like bandits here. They got 2 first round picks, one of them unprotected, all for a player they would have to overpaid this summer to keep. Shamet is a pretty good young player too.

    This also lets them tank and miss the playoffs and keep their own pick instead of sending it to Boston.

    Sixers very limited having Simmons in a close game in the 4th Q. Guys shooting 40% from the line. You have arguably your best player not being able to touch the ball.

    Shaq also can’t shoot free throws and won 4 Rings- Walt you don’t think Simmons is better then Joel?

    I'm still not sure why they went for Butler so hard and got him. He has been a bad teammate everywhere he's played and his style of play heavy isolation and picknroll are completely opposite to Bret Brown's offense. He's played well but I think it can still blow up in their faces. They gave up two valuable rotation players for someone who is probably not going to re-sign with them next year.

    I think if butler sticks 2 defense - Sixers will be good - Tobias is a scorer -

    Harris is not just good he is very good. Young talent only getting better. You obviously haven't seen him play..

    He was averaging 21 and 8 a game and the Clippers currently have a better record then the Lakers at 30-25 and it's mainly because of him.. I watch the Clippers and he is their leading scorer on the team. That's one player they should not have given up IMO..

    Get your Clippers 2020 futures right now.

    Jerry West is about to show Magic Johnson who's in charge of Los Angeles.

    Not so sure about that giving up Harris now. Lakers have Lebron and cap space for free agency.. I think the star players would rather put on the purple and gold over the White and weak. ..


    I'd hold off on those futures for now Giant.. Spin it if they land a name first.. West and Magic probably the same pull right now though as GM's I can't argue that..
