"If the player is in the act of shooting before or at the end of the third second, the count is discontinued while he is in continuous motion toward the basket"

Yeah pretty much exactly 3 seconds
― Matt Armstrong, Sunday, 9 August 2020 20:58 (three years ago) link
definitely 3 or less before he starts that last move to shoot

Their defense is about as bad as you can get for a competitive team with good players
― Spottie, Sunday, 9 August 2020 22:32 (three years ago) link
they're certainly missing the last step that would make them a competitive playoff team. still fun to watch tho!

yeah they really need to nuke the front office and also the roster this just does not seem salvageable just so much wasted talent

Hinkie would just do the same shit

Maybe Hinkie would have fired Brett Brown by now but I doubt it
hinkine drafted 3 centers lol
― J0rdan S., Monday, 10 August 2020 03:16 (three years ago) link
theyve got 4 monster contracts on the books for minimum 3 years. theyre all guys in their prime except horford which i'd expect makes him the hardest to trade.
its weird bc i cant imagine trading either simmons or embiid but...you kinda have to trade one of them, right? unless simmons turns into dirk over the summer.
― methinks dababy doth bop shit too much (m bison), Monday, 10 August 2020 03:20 (three years ago) link
i know embiid is probably better, but i feel like i'd keep simmons. horford back to the 5, tobias harris at the 4, richardson and the best player you get back in the package for embiid seems like itd be good? idk i thought this sixers lineup was gonna be good so dont mind me.
― methinks dababy doth bop shit too much (m bison), Monday, 10 August 2020 03:23 (three years ago) link
yeah, i think at this point you have to figure out how to get some perimeter talent onto the team. i'd probably start more with "who can i get" rather than "who should i trade" since simmons and embiid are both pretty flawed players in different ways.

yeah, gotta feel like portland can swing a CJ trade, esp if they think gary trent jr is a legit starter level player
― methinks dababy doth bop shit too much (m bison), Monday, 10 August 2020 03:34 (three years ago) link
I think Portland maxxed cj. if not full max, they came damn close. so this would be tricky to pull off unless some GM is deeply in love with McCollum and has assets Portland likes.

philly has to see what they can do with cj it's the law
― Clay, Monday, 10 August 2020 03:42 (three years ago) link
there are plenty of cj to sixers trades that work. the problem is more that portland's best lineups are all 4 out with nurk and there's nobody they can take back from the sixers that advances that cause.
― call all destroyer, Monday, 10 August 2020 03:43 (three years ago) link
a third team would be ideal
― methinks dababy doth bop shit too much (m bison), Monday, 10 August 2020 03:44 (three years ago) link
the one person whose opinion should matter most in assessing any cj trade for one or more sixer players would be coach stotts. he won't ever say a word in public, but he's the only one I'd like to hear from.
― the unappreciated charisma of cows (Aimless), Monday, 10 August 2020 03:47 (three years ago) link
embiid is clearly amazing and a dominant force to the eye and in the box score and yet i really have my doubts that a team is winning an nba title these days with a $30 million center who isn't, like, anthony davis

if they had kept butler they still may have made the finals tho

idk about this unless you're a team wanting to move $35 mil off your books or need to add exactly one piece to compete for one year and that piece is somehow, improbably, gordon hayward
― Clay, Monday, 10 August 2020 04:02 (three years ago) link
you might be right!
the thing that never connected for me is that everyone agreed that the NBA is a wing league and in order to win titles you need wings and then the sixers went and dumped their best wing for a second center and everyone incl ppl like zach lowe who i respect were like "well i just don't know how this assemblage of talent *DOESN'T* make the finals" ... like was i listening to deep fake podcasts the last 5 years what's going on
― J0rdan S., Monday, 10 August 2020 04:04 (three years ago) link
(xp to cad)
there was a lot of belief that josh richardson was like >80% of jimmy butler which did not turn out to be true
― call all destroyer, Monday, 10 August 2020 04:05 (three years ago) link
when those transactions happened my thinking was that the sixers were becoming an extremely high-variance team and i think that's basically held up
― call all destroyer, Monday, 10 August 2020 04:07 (three years ago) link
also ppl thought butler was washed but he was def one of the 5 best players in the east this year

portland should absolutely get cj's contract off the books and take 1 year to see if hayward fits.

it's true... it was actually incredible for him that he ended up in a system like miami's where his shooting doesn't really matter right when his outside shot abandoned him. this year jimmy w/ embiid and simmons kinda hurts the brain to think about offensively but still may have been able to make the finals. then again all three are hurt right now lmao another huge problem w/ the philly plan

Hinkie wouldn't have traded up for Fultz.
He wouldn't have traded for Harris and then nearly maxed him.
He wouldn't have signed Horford to play at the 4.
I'm still laughing at the Sixers thinking Milton was going to go from G-Leaguer to running the point on a championship team while continuing to shoot 55% from 3.
Thank god for the Flyers so I don't have to focus on this train wreck.
