Official 2017 NBA Offseason Thread: Media Days begin

[Maximus Meridius]

Now all the cocky sixers fans are gonna come out the woodwork

I think 98% of this thread is gonna hate Philly by the end of the season.

Every year there's one fan base that gets too big for their britches and comes in here talking crazy. Thought it was gonna be the Jazz this year but I'm down for it being Philly.

Outside of Utah do the Jazz got fans?

The Bucks don't get NEARLY enough love on here as they should.

They are one move away IMO

I don't think any one denies that they're good. They're just not a sexy team with a big fanbase on here

 

[noblekane]

in my almost 18 years on niketalk ive never seen more than 3 jazz fans

 

[seasoned vet]

your teams fanbase sucks too

really?

what team would that be when im not a fan of any team.

The Bucks literally cant afford to have Jabari and Thon not pan out and those are currently 2 big question marks. Cause if they dont Giannis might end up like LeBron in his first stint with Cavs. He's already too good to tank and get any more high picks. We also have some bad contracts and in the near future wont be in any position to sign a big player that may or may not even be willing to come here unless we somehow manage to trade those bad contracts like we magically did with Plumlee. But that was Hammond da gawd who made that happen and we pushed him out the door.

Those Monroe, Henson and Delly contracts are stupid but FAs aren't coming to play there

I think you can/should package something (Monroe's contract) to get a young guy similar to the way Brooklyn did.

The thing is finding trade partners....

Portland Crabbe and a pick

Sacramento Koufos/Papagiannis and a pick

Dallas Barnes for Delly/Monroe

Clippers De'Andre

Detroit IDK

Regardless, one piece and health makes them a formidable team

Barring injuries

there's something about death, taxes, and joel embiid injuries having something in common

 

[Clyde Frog]

Monroe is actually not the problem. He turned out to be a great piece for us which is fortunate. He opted in with one year left on his deal. Had a rough start but we found his role for us and he does make us a better team. While his expiring contract makes him a good trade piece after showing some great production.

The trio of Henson/Delly/Telly is what's holding us down.

I doubt many of you watched enough to know just how bad Teletovic was this year. He was widely regarded as a great signing for us at the time. He was so god damn bad at shooting this year that I 100% expected every shot he took to miss and he never proved me wrong. He was in an 88 game slump. And if he didn't shoot he would wrecklessly drive baseline and jump hoping to find someone while airborne and throw some wild **** resulting in a turn over. This and miss every shot he ever took is all he did from beginning to end of season.

Why would Dallas and the Clippers make those deals. Those trade scenarios are off the wall bonkers

2 of their starters haven't played a single second of professional basketball. Embiid hasn't shown he can play a full season yet. The Sixers are not making the playoffs.

Yes please tell us more what'll happen almost a year from now genius

Embiid gonna be the only player in history to be a Rookie 3 seasons in a row?

What's the record for most Rookie vs. Sophomore All Star game appearances?
