Agreed. This teams is on a whole different level with Ben running the show. The personnel fits, and he will find everyone on the court. They play fast on both sides of the ball, and Al’s game is really able to shine.

Imbid is too slow, more of a half court player. But it slows the pace of the team ,and his dominant ball presence stifles the game of horford.

Portland already has whiteside, who is also more of a slow center on a team that’s like to play with pace. It stifles them at times, however whiteside makes up for it by getting tons of boards and blocks. I can’t see them trading for another slow center, or trading center for center, because philly wouldn’t want that either.

Philly needs a center like Capela who plays with speed , gets boards and tons of ally oops. But of course rockets wouldn’t let him go, and he is being wasted by playing with harden. Can you imagine him on the break with Ben?

I agree that Philly could use a backcourt player like McCollum...get a player like McCollum and a fast serviceable center. Willy Cauley Stein would have been perfect, but Dallas just snagged him up from GS. Plus GS has tons of really good young scoring backcourt players in Burks, Robinson, Damion... Or a deal like getting Dangelo Russell and Cauley Stein for Imbid would have been a good fit.

This may sound crazy, Andre Drummond would be a good fit as well. He can get up and down the court and rebound like crazy, plus Detroit has some good young scoring shooting guards. They are looking to deal Drummond, so Imbid for Drummond and one of those shooting guards..

But yeah, this is ben’s team.
