Joel Embiid fans

Nah, they aren't that far off from competing right now, they have the 11th best defense in the league (Worst offense in the league though), young squads usually suck ass on defense but this one just needs a little more offense to be competitive. Assuming Embiid stays healthy the whole year and they draft Mudiay or Russell, they will be getting more defense from Embiid in addition to offense and an offensive punch on the wing that they didn't have before. They could have a Milwaukee Bucks like jump next year, but they are definitely going to turn the corner in the next 2-3 years and show some major growth (if healthy).

also a improved Noel...his ceiling is looking a little higher then i originally thought

a better ben wallace?

Cavs traded Wiggins, and didn't draft Noel or Embiid.

clearly the better playmaker but i havent seen enuff of mudiay tbh...

but if Hinkie values athleticism then mudiay by far would be the pick...

safe pick is russel but mudiay maybe the superstar a la westbrook

Mudiay can't shoot though and I don't know if Hinkie would draft him knowing this. Larry Brown did mention the 76ers staff loved him however.

all things being equal im inclined to think Hinkie goes with the better athlete and defender....alot of people have dropped russells name....ploy maybe

mudiay isnt MCW bad of a jump shooter....he isnt top tier but he should be able to come in and hit in the 30's

The East in 4 years
Bucks; Magic, 76'ers, and Celtics all competing for the chip

@Captain_Crunch who the hell the Magic got???? They can't keep a Allstar to save their life.

 

[Th3G3ntleman]

Magic got Victor,Elf,Vucci,Tobias that's a good young squad. Not to mention Gordon who sucks but could eventually become a decent defender.

Can't believe the Sixers could possibly 2 picks in the top 6 in a year like this.

Let's say they get #3 or 4 in the lottery, and select either Russell or Mudiay. Then, the Lakers fall out of the top 5, and the Sixers end up getting their pick at #6. Do they take one of the SFs available (Johnson, guy from Spain)? Do they trade the pick??

Magic actually do have a nice core but Tobiashe is probally out of there anyway


Peyton,Oladipo and vucci man nice core

That's Curtis Sumpter working out with Embiid

Look like he can play some minutes for Philly right now lol. The undersized big on those mid 2000s Nova teams

They'd take Hezonja or Winslow with the 6th pick.


And in that scenario they'd take Mudiay, the shooting of Hezonja would cover for him.

If Embiid is healthy next year they probably can make a run for the playoffs... Like 6th seed in the East

i don't think so unless they get some solid vets...particularly in the backcourt.

Probably true...they have some bad habits from all this losing

 

[FakeNews]

If Mudiay goes to the Sixers, they're about to be Africa's team

A new team I can Stan
