Was a big fan of what they did last season and adding Mitchell is a huge game changer. He might keep them from fizzling out towards the end of the season
I have no idea why they got Gobert. I get if you want a defensive big to pair next to KAT, that makes sense. Go out and get Horford, Capela, Turner, Robert Williams, or Jarrett Allen. They could've gotten any of them for half the package they gave up (less than that in most of those cases) and they wouldn't be stuck with that contract either. Not only was the trade awful, the fit is worse and there's no way out of this. Ant is the future there and one of the best young offensive wings in the league. Your solution is to clog the paint so he has no way to get to the rim? I don't get it.
Absolutely. I imagine there was some type of system they thought it would work but it clearly isn't and I imagine won't ever. I think it's similar to our trade for Russ, just a dumb move based on on-court fit. Plus KAT and Ant don't get along. Not sure how they get out of it, maybe we get KAT
Trading those 5 picks was a genius move Gobert in, KAT out: elite defense, bad offense KAT in, Gobert out: great offense, bottom 3 defense in the NBA Starting 5: worst 5 man unit in the NBA (rivaled by the Lakers i guess). They have no choice but to trade KAT, rather sooner than later...
I think it was in Earl Strom's book about his life as a longtime NBA ref. Strom blew the whistle on Moses when he stepped on the end line before taking a shot. Moses: What did I do? Strom: You stepped out of bounds, Moses. Moses: That's a hell of a place to put a line.
no mr glass/streetclothes cracks from the fans and media, though. because his injuries are real and even tough guys would have to sit from...whatever it is that's happened to him...nothing? anyway, he's a tough guy, not soft.
Philly farm club now huh? Poor kid if he gets a call up again now it comes with exposure in locker room to whatever could be breeding in Haren’s rat’s nest beard.
Rough night for the Greek Freak... - lost to shorthanded 6ers. 4/15 from the line. So he decided to work on his FTs after the game and then did this Fine coming? Minor altercation with Trezz after the game And to cap it off...
