We were all scared. Scared that Colangelo and his snake father would steal the ship straight towards mediocrity. These fears intensified yesterday when the Danny Ainge bullshit propaganda machine said we were trading the Liberty Bell yesterday.

MEGA LEKS BITCH.
Granted, they could trade LuGAWDwu and Furkan.2 later today in a way that could piss me off, but RIGHT TODAY I am feeling 1000 percent more optimistic about the post Process era.
Oh, and we got the new Penny. THIS STARTS NOW.

Maybe I'd have taken Skal with 26 but there is a reason dozens of GMs passed on him. This is starting to look like a real roster, kinda, sorta. I wouldn't be surprised to see more trades in the days to come and also after the FA dust begins to settle. Once the big names are off the market, teams will still have space left.

I kinda feel like nerlens and stuff for ariza and Beverly is still going to happen. I really don't love if we keep Jah over Nerlens, and I'll be Raging Shelly if we include too much else in the deal, especially luwawau. That dude has 3 and D written all over him, and that's a conservative estimate.
But anyway, I'm down with adding real NBA players to help the Chosen One grow. Plus Beverly is a dirty dog who philly will adore

3. "That deal would make me very angry." In response to Reply # 2
Bev and Ariza? Hell nah. We need guys who have at least a shot at figuring into the future. I wonder if Boston's No. 3 was really on the table. I suspect they wanted too much.

One or maybe both bigs will get traded. We'll add some "veteran" dudes after summer league.
Just glad we didn't get boned in a panic trade during the draft. Wanted to trade 24 and 26 for something, then I saw 10-20 became a shitshow and wanted to keep them. Figured we could get a wing prospect out of it and thought we would have to add Dejounte Murray as part of the Klutch Sports tax. We ended up with two decent prospects.
Wasn't high on any of the Pg's after Baldwin. We dodged a bullet passing.
They only thing that really matters is if Ben Simmons is what we think he is. ---------------------------- Same as it ever was!
>I'm sure Hinkie would have drafted Simmons, Skal, and Diallo.
He took BPA. To a detriment, but he has. Whether oak was better than zingis is horse that was beaten to death already. Most of his project picks were 2nd rounders and UDFA's. Richaun Holmes, Jeremy Grant, KJ Mcdaniel, etc...

when that ship eventually gets righted, it'll be due to the groundwork he laid. and there won't even be a plaque or a signpost with his name.

14. "These guys unlikely. Saric, probably." In response to Reply # 12
If you believe the European press and his dad, Saric is coming. If you look at the logistics of the money he could make coming this year versus next, he will come next year.

19. "Korkmaz's buyout probably keeps him in Europe at least 1 year." In response to Reply # 12
He's only 18 so that's not a big loss but his buyout is 2 million and the Sixers, by NBA rule, can only offer around 700k to help with that. His rookie scale salary is around 1 million next year so he'd actually be like 300k in the red if he came over next year.
Luwuwu's buyout is less so there's a better shot of him coming out.
As for Saric, who knows? The reports are that he's coming over this year but I felt like we heard the same thing this time last year.
15. "Anyone else HYPED @ the awesome fail that is Sac-Town?" In response to Reply # 0
They managed to one up Boston's ineptitude in the draft as they become the poor man Sixers with too many fucking bigs to piss off the one star big they do have.
And now we may see Rondo bounce outta there too? My lord, seems they REALLY tryna #SuckForTheSwap in the best way ever. Lets steal Seth Curry from them while we at it to speed up "The Process"!!! (/^o^)/
18. "I could see Kings wildly overpaying Rondo." In response to Reply # 17
I'd like to see Minny send Rubio over there but not sure what they'd get in return. Rubio for Cauley-Stein seems like selling low on Pretty Ricky. Maybe get a protected pick or something.
Most teams set on their PG or won't want to deal with Rondo. Can't imagine anyone offers more than Sacramento will offer. Memphis and Brooklyn might be interested but don't think they offer a long term deal.
