It is the years 2018-19 in the National Basketball Association (NBA) - The Regular Season

why are the sixers acting as if their team is going to implode if they don't win the championship this season

this trade is completely insane? i kinda feel bad for sixers fans

the crash landing from hinkie to colangelo to elton brand has been harsh

thats 4 all star level players in the starting lineup. probably all brand has in his sights.

warriors brass shoulda never let jerry west go

damn that's weird

it's true but there's also diminishing returns at a certain point. not only are you trading 2 first round picks for a half season of tobias harris, you're trading 2 first round picks for a half season of tobias harris on a team where he has to share the ball with jimmy butler, joel embiid and ben simmons

how is this a real trade

yeah and jimmy is still figuring out how to fit in... and now they add another new major piece.

any way you slice it between the four of them you're diverting the ball away from a player you've heavily invested in be it in draft capital, trade capital, salary whatever. maybe ben simmons' shots go away but then you've turned your first overall pick who is an all star into a glorified version of mbah a moute.

and that's to say nothing of the other 8 guys on the team who might want to shoot the ball from time to time

plz gimme the boban embiid lineup I crave

not too worried about shot distribution. this allows them some flexibilty with lineups and having tobias and jj will open things up for simmons and embiid to work.

clippers punting the season means the pathway for bron (or the kings/wolves) is a little easier

Wow is Tobias Harris a good fit for the Sixers.
Also seems relevant: the Clippers' first-round pick this year is supposed to go to Boston...unless the Clippers don't make the playoffs.

The Sixers are budgeting to re-sign and keep a new Big 4, including free agents Tobias Harris and Jimmy Butler this summer, league sources tell ESPN. Philadelphia has long-term plans for Harris, Butler, Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons together.

i get that the league is an arms race against the warriors but the warriors have pieces that fit together... one of their 4 stars only shoots when forced to and another goes entire games without dribbling.

i don’t think forced super teams work & i’m really skeptical that this forced super team of all forced super teams is gonna work

they traded that miami pick for tobias harris??

feels like contingency for butler leaving the more i think about it.

this is insanity

lmao

So are clippers hoarding picks to make a move for brow?

i am available to sit on the sixers bench for the minimum nba salary

Pistons are finalizing a trade to send Stanley Johnson to Milwaukee for Thon Maker, league source tells ESPN.

huh... k

don't like that one for the bucks

idgi

thon had been wanting a trade.... stanley johnson is not good tho

coach bud never seemed to be into thon but i think he still has more to offer than stanley johnson.

both guys seemed to need a change of scenery just seems like a lateral swap to me.

Tobias seems great for the sixers. Part of the issue is that their coach is so bad but it should result in fewer idiotic possessions where embiid catapults 30 foot bricks

The Gasol/Conley stuff is really interesting to me

what stuff?

The Durant thing is getting weird. He hasnt talked to the media since the Porzingis trade. Ethan wrote a thing about it
https://theathletic.com/802440/2019/02/05/silent-star-on-the-presumed-warriors-exit-of-kevin-durant/

It’s possible that Durant is just engaged in the Schultz 2020 campaign and doesn’t have time for media rn

lol

need more trades

So I guess KD for AD is happening after all.

The Rockets have discussed trading Brandon Knight, Marquese Chriss, and a Draft Pick to the Grizzlies for JaMychal Green and Garrett Temple

this is fun. I chose giannis and picked first and crushed lebron's meager band of mercenaries

lol awesome. same

haha nice. i won 184-134.

interesting

Miami is nearing a deal to send guard Tyler Johnson to Phoenix, league sources tell ESPN.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) February 6, 2019

choosing first really isn't fair because whoever chooses second gets kemba and dirk lol

is tyler johnson a pg?

choosing first really isn't fair because whoever chooses second gets kemba and dirk lol

and d'angelo

lol tyler johnson gets a 15% trade bonus around 1 milli. his agent should get all of that for getting him the deal he's on.

waiting for terms...easiest way to make it work is r. anderson and some draft compensation.

old tweet ha

I did not ask for the LEBRON bandwagon

So to sum up Tyler Johnson and Wayne Ellington to the Suns for Ryan Anderson. There are no picks involved in this trade.
