Conagenlo failed us brehs

I disagree man, I wanted Dunn but no need to force the trade. Wait and see who pans out down low for us, let them progress more and see if we can get a veteran PG back for one or two of them if need be. The Celtics wanted wayyyy too much for that 3rd pick and we saw that we wouldn't have even needed the 3rd to get him. I can live with how this played out.

I'm very excited at the prospect of Embiid and Simmons playing together, and just imagine if Okafor can become competent on the defensive end. We have 3 guys there that could give us 20 pts and 10 reb on any given night, plus Simmons can give us 8-10 ast on a fairly regular basis.

I'm good! Would have been nice to pick up Kris Dunn or Jamal Murray too, but seeing that Benny can run the point, I'm not really worried. We have to unload Jah or Nerlens though. Or both! If Luwawu comes over, I think that pick as potential. Don't have to force moves, but I would like to see Colangelo make an effort to put legit weapons around Ben in FA!

Still got to move one of the bigs though. TBH I think it's gotta be Oak. I don't think Simmons can play the 3 and don't want him to either. At the 4 he's already a matchup nightmare. Noel being there means we can play a transition game with simple sets in the half court. Simmons and Noel running the pick and roll with spacing provided from the 1-3 with Noel being the roll man. Oak being there changes everything though and just don't fit even though I think he'll probably end up being so fukking good.

Oak takes the ball out of Simmons' hands and stops the ball. Also doesn't provide the rim protection behind Simmons as the center. It fits much better to have Nerlens or Embiid at center, spreading the floor with 4-5 pick and rolls. With shooters at 1-3.


I like Oak but he doesn't fit with any of our other bigs

What do we do at the 2 is what I wanna know...
Another season of Stauskas :gag: ... I like him better off the bench

RoCo is too slow to guard 2's, Hollis and Canaan can kick rocks
Im hoping we sign a cheap fill in for now...
