Yea you dont know the full list because it was only 1 game, the final game of the season, which the Heat won anyway.
Sixers' tanking took a toll - was it worth it?
- Thread starter Street Knowledge
- Start date
This strategy has been a complete eye sore for the NBA. Also Sam Hinke draft mentality of choosing " the best available", is/was a dumb process. There's no reason why the 76ers should have Saric/Noel/Okafor/ Embidd on a single team. There's no NBA free agent that can help them win in the long term future. Look at this free agent class
Point guard
1) Mike Conley ( He's not going to this scrub team)
2) Ranjon Rondo ( Do you really want his attitude on this team?
Shooting guard
1) Wade ( Not leaving Miami)
2) Demarr Derozan ( Probably LA bound, or Stays home)
3)Beal ( That injury history)
* At best they can sign Harrison Barnes. But then what would be the point of drafting Simmons or Ingram? Philly is just a mess.

The Embiid injuries killed them he could have been their franchise player. they still have a decent amount of young talent with more to come it might not work but why are people saying its a failure already?
Even if it does fail so do a lot of other methods. It's really odd to me why their are people so vehemently against the tanking method and would rather a team fight for an 8th seed every year with zero shot at contending

or maybe they just keep tumbling down rabbit hole

Point was that y'all are in here kicking this holier than thou talk when the Heat did what they could to try to secure their pick so they didn't lose it. What was best for the team
Sixers are doing what they feel is best. They toiled away in mediocrity for years and now they're trying a different approach.
Repeat Tank Offender rule coming

My team is currently tied for the 3rd best record in their conference not sure why I would be mad.
Your rule isn't coming but we all have dreams I guess

But then they clown those teams and call them treadmill squads. So either way you can't win.
A team intentionally losing doesn't bother you as a fan of basketball?Why does it bother y'all that the Sixers suck tho?
The Sixers don't bother me, gonna be bottom feeders regardless around the leagueA team intentionally losing doesn't bother you as a fan of basketball?
Sixers were a treadmill team since AI left, they tried something different, whatever

Do Right And Kill Everything
They are proof that tanking just don't work. Alot of luck is involved
Here Comes the Pain
Superstar
The Sixers are straight
All those top draft picks and the organization still isn't worth a damn.
