I give it 4

Theyre getting rhe lakers pick. That will be a lotto selection if they dont sign aldridge or deandre jordan. They have their own pick which will be terrible

Embiid
noel
okafor
saric (if he comes over)
lakers pick
philly 2016 pick

All of these guys will be on rookie deals

Breh, do you realize that philly goes into next offseason with these 6 guys (if saric comes over) eating up less than 20 mil in cap space and the salary cap is 89 mil? :damn:

Throw a few cheap second rounders on the roster to fill it out and theyve got money to add 3 or 4 quality players to the young core.

:wow:

Hinkie is doing it the right way

The Jazz' best player, Gordon Hayward, is a lotto pick from 2010.

They traded their star player :dwillhuh: for the pick that became Favors in 2010.

Alec Burks is a lotto pick from 2011.

Save for Gobert, who was a late first rounder, the picks people on here bash Philly for collecting, their best players have been playing since 2010-11.


And Utah traded a young big man putting up 14/8 in 27mpg for Kendrick fukking Perkins.

and after getting perkins they let him go. clearly they saw rudy>enes

They weren't enamored with Kanter, and moved him for essentially cap relief and to allow the guy they liked to step up.

Sixers weren't really in love with MCW and moved him for the Lakers pick which is only top 5 protected.

Do the Lakers make the playoffs this year if they're unable to get a LMA or DeAndre?

It's the most blatant and disgusting tanking in sports history.

Philadelphia fans should be embarassed... That's a supposedly big market sports team putting up with this and not saying a damn thing... In NY, Boston, or LA hinkie would have been assassinated

How long have you been a shyt poster? :patrice:

Why do people act like the Sixers have been tanking for 9 years?

Wolves haven't made the playoffs since 04.

Jazz last made it the same year Philly last made it there.
Yeah but they aren't making smart moves they have drafted centers every year lol twice centers that couldn't play the year they where drafted.

And both were guys that would've gone #1 if they were healthy.

Noel tore his ACL on some freak shyt.

Embiid had more significant issues.

If Embiid health still remains a serious issue, you've just drafted a top 2 prospect to take his place.

If Embiid is healthy, you build his value up and decide which one you want to trade.

The other option they had this year was taking Mudiay, a guy they apparently didn't want, just because he filled a need.

:deadmanny: thats the key would have you gotta admit this team has no direction and they are gonna have to start filling other positions via trade this year or its gonna be a long time before they even get close to the playoffs.

Can you stop with the MCW shyt the kid wasn't a good PG seriously. His numbers,plus/minus, Turnovers, shooting, passing were horrible. The offense actually got better when he got traded and Noel blossom under other PGs.
Why not develop him?
