On the low.. The Sixers could be headed down a dangerous path

[tremonthustler1]

I don't know if the Celtics is a good example. Celtics kinda got lucky with that one. they wanted Greg Oden badly. Lost the lottery and f*cked around and ended up with "The Big 3" still in their prime. I get the tank but this is an epic proportions tank. The type that brings on bad karma. They might not even win for the rest of the season.

If the Sixers can't get out of their own way moving forward, it's not because they lost 26 games in a row. It would be because their GM /owner had a chance to select someone who could help them and blew it (or decided that this tanking shyt is so much fun)

The Cavs lost 26 games in a row and wound up with Kyrie Irving (with YOUR team's pick). How's that for bad karma? That team's karma is so diseased, the little Gilbert that represented them at the lotto won TWICE. It doesn't matter how you get there as long as this 1 year of losing doesn't turn into 5-10 years of it

As a longtime Kings fan , I've seen it all, except this.


But I do remember the 43 game road losing streak

First of all I get the tank. I understand.. I know what they're trying to do. Philly hasn't really had anything to cheer about since Iverson stepped over Tyron Lue in the Finals years ago.... BUT

This unheard of level of losing can be flat out dangerous to a club. As a Clipps fan for years, you really don't want to go down this path. That losing sinks in and permeates a franchise like a grape juice stain on white linen cloth. Those Eric Piatkowski, Loy Vaught, Lamond Murray, Pooh Richardson days were pretty dark and bleak. Things are rosy now but it took forever to get out of this

Be careful Philly.. This type of losing brings on a domino effect- Bad drafts, injuries, busts, coaching changes, bad attendance, etc.

Not wishing any bad karma on ya'll and I hope this doesn't happen. I hope things do turn out and go according to plan but on the real.. be careful with these type of losing streaks

stephen a. decribed this the best

it's not really like you're seeing the sixers even try. any athlete is gonna give 100% but what the coaches, gms and organization does is just limit those players

noel can play and is cleared to play.. but they won't let him play. their best player, mcw, is not even playing 40 mins a game...

so it's not like the clips, who were actually out there trying to win games and shyt

these nikkas are setting themselves up to fail on purpose.. so next year you'll see mcw playing 99% of the game, noel will be on the floor, plus whatever top 10 draft pick they got and free agents

Sixers had the choice to either bask in mediocrity for another 10 years or destroy and rebuild

I'm sure sixers fans miss their yearly first round exits

What is the big deal Hinkie said last year this is a 5 year process it will take time. We are cool with that.

Some teams need to follow our lead Knicks, Celtics, Nets and more

Their dangerous road now is just getting their frontcourt healthy.

 

[dtownreppin214]

they're going to have another top 5 pick next year too.

thats what i was saying. The sixers just waiting for that next window. Celtics had some nice picks today

Meh better than the treadmill

I like what the celtics are doing I think the Atlantic division going to be nice in the next couple of years with raptors celtics and Sixers. At Nets and Knicks

they're going to have another top 5 pick next year too.

Stanley Johnson, Mario Hezonja or Justise Winslow would be good looks for them.

@pete clemenza was right unless they miracle into Ben Simmons. There is no plan in place except praying to win the lottery one of these years when an all-time great comes out.

Four guys in the regular rotation shooting under 39%.

Okafor and Noel is not a long-term pairing. The game is about spacing now and Noel is not spacing anything opposite Okafor.

Embiid is probably never going to be right, but even if he is, he doesn't fit with Okafor or Noel either.

Saric is still probably two years from coming over here.

Still no vets on the roster to teach these kids anything about being a professional or doing the little things on the court. You can see the difference KG is having with the young core of the Wolves.
