MORE TIME? Breh do you realize through this whole process they really only have 1 player that can potentially be a multiple time all star?

The NBA should fine him AND the 76ers for this bullshyt. A team being this bad INTENTIONALLY is horrible for the league.
Horrible for the league? lol

Nba sacrifice

Philly getting ben simmons now for this sacrifice

Nba rewards lakers for kobe retiring and lakers keep their pick

Philly will be solid in two years after they draft ben and start throwing that cap money to these solid mid 20 year olds but they will be overpaying and depending on joel/noell/jahlil development / trading whomever is the odd man out will detirmine the future


And like others said i had no view of him doing this after that zach lowe interview

Damn. Tanking for years, clearing cap space, getting top assets, and now it's over before he can reap any of the benefits. Okafor, Noel, Embiid, Saric, the Laker pick, and possibly Ingram/Simmons. So much you can do with those assets. The new GM is basically going to be playing in easy mode. All the benefits of tanking without going through the years of pain.

How did they make no progress?

Entering the 2013-14 season really all they had was Nerlens and bum-ass MCW

Entering the 2016-17 season assuming they don't trade any they'll have Okafor, Embiid, Nerlens, Saric, either Ingram/Simmons/Dunn, two other 1st round picks from that draft, plus possibly another top 5 pick if the Lakers fall. Not to mention they have no bad contracts handicapping them and a number of other future picks coming in
:mjlol: those picks are pointless if your franchise has no stability they not getting simmons cause the league is making sure he is going to go to la probably one of those picks will work out and embiid will probably never be healthy and even if he does become healthy there three most promising players all play the same position so I would call that no progress.

They were awful for three years.

Somehow this guy is getting more hate than organizations like the Kings/Wolves/etc that were awful for a decade plus.

If they do get the first overall pick this year and Embiid back next year and everything starts going their way no one is going to remember that it was because of his process. :yeshrug:
This
Atleast the wolves got a rebuild by trading love snd getting wiggins towns and lavine and bringing back kg for influence

Nothing the kings have done has worked and they have sucked for 10 years. The pelicans would be in the same boat had they missed the playoffs last year and they fired they coach and still suck. Atleast hinkie tried to do something outside the box
