"Hinkie Died For This, Long Live The Process" Philadelphia 76ers 2016-2017 Season Thread

[Kliq_Souf]

The Lineup:

Bayless/ Mcconell/ Rodriguez
Henderson/ Thompson
Covington/ Grant/ Luwawu
Simmons/ Holmes/ Landry
Okafor/ Noel/ Embiid

Stauskas won't make the cut... I like Wood too, but he won't make it either.

Im not adding Saric till the ink hits paper

Im content with PG for the moment, we should look to draft a PG in next years draft. I still wish we could have gotten Dunn somehow.
We will def have two top 10 picks next season. Either with us and Lakers, or we swap with SAC... We in good hands.

Of the big men, sadly I think Noel gets traded come FEBRUARY... He a free agent next year, and I don't think he lived up to the money he expected to get. I love his defensive presence, but I think he gone.

Im waiting for the schedule to pop up...I def wanna be at Wells Fargo opening night

IDK about ya'll but I kinda wanna see Simmons at SF or PG instead of PF. If we start him at one of those positions it kinda lessens our logjam to an extent and opens up playing time for the other bigs. Besides Simmons has the skill to do it. I think we should say fukk it and play him at PG like the Bucks do with Giannis. The only problem would be him defending PG's But if you put two fire breathing dragons in Noel and Embiid behind him on defense Then Okafor could come off the bench and destroy the second units.



PG: Simmons
SG: Henderson
SF: Covington
PF: Noel / Saric
C: Embiid / Okafor

I kinda wanna see Oak and Simmons on the court at the same time. Gut tells me it'll be an issue but I dunno a part of me things it could be magic.

It won't Simmons a PG I am sorry nothing less and his playmaking abilities with a soft touch big Okafor will be deadly

Simmons needs to play PG, I don't know why people are so hell bent on him being a 4. The mismatches he'll create, his passing/speed in open floor is ahead of most PG's in the league.

The only problem will be him guarding PG's but I think you can live with it. Jay Bilas said engaged Simmons is a lockdown defender and said he saw him lockdown Kris Dunn at a high school camp.

If I pick the 76ers in 2K, I'm running him at PG and eating.

Brett Brown said he Chris Paul so he is a PG. What will make him deadly is developing that shot consistently and be 6'10 on top of the key omg. Pick and roll mismatches he has a chance to be Lebron level superstar

Brown will have him playing pg before the all star break. I've too many times at his decision making and court awareness this summer. He needs to be bringing the ball up the court.

Sixers and the Bucks have a chance to start a new trend of "big ball" with huge PG's like Giannis and Simmons. The mismatches that it can create will be nightmarish

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

I'd be open more to the idea of him playing point if he didn't bulk up so much. He's frankly too big to play point for an extended period of time, especially defensively.

Are you not at all concerned about how bad the spacing would be on that team? If henderson is the type to take midrange 2s rather than 3s.

Saric can shoot he can be switched in for Noel. Bayless can shoot he can be switched for Henderson.
