Sixers NEWS and RUMORS 6/10/24

[Music] hey [Music] hey yeah Sixers sickos run it back Nation what is good it is I djwood running back Philly no frauds no Fanboys never had an intro that was not an intro that was a figment of your imagination thanks for being here thanks for hanging out on this another beautiful Monday I think every Monday all off season we’re going to do this just reacting to Sixers news and rumors anything that’s going around the internet that I can have an opinion on that Sixers related is what we’re going to do man shout out to Martin Santiago with the Super Chat my guy appreciate you back like I left my Louis Vuitton backpack at my side pieces house and hadn’t even turned out hadn’t even turned out of her neighborhood let’s go Eastwood what up you crazy shout out to Martin Santiago thank you for the Super Chat let’s get down to it man what what are we going to talk about today man are we going to talk about how Drew holiday is about to win his second NBA championship the player who was traded to start the process you can’t write this stuff any better or worse I should say uh for an organization the player that was traded to start the process that was supposed to result in having multiple star players on the roster and uh you know the Sixers were supposed to be the next big thing oh my gosh look how many first round picks look how much cap space we’re going to stack this team and we’re going to be unstoppable and eight eight years later when was Drew holiday traded man I feel like 2014 10 years later 2013 2014 10 years later later the 76ers out of the process uh got one player who is yeah MVP MVP level player when he’s healthy but everything else literally everything else has been a Miss as far as the process goes of course we did get very lucky and ended up with Tyrese Maxi but I guess like I’m shocked when people defend certain things online um but I am also learning that there’s just Defenders of anything I I I I met a I met an Elton brand Defender the other day I had a post that said something about Elton Brand’s the worst GM hire in the history of sports and there was people defending Elton brand and that’s another topic whether you think Elton brand was actually in control or if that was Josh Harris and his billionaire buddies playing 2K with a real franchise but there’s Defenders of everything so I posted on Instagram and I said uh isn’t it crazy that the Sixers traded Drew holiday to try to get to the top of the draft multiple years in a row and the whole thing failed and Drew holiday is now on his way to win his second NBA championship and there’s actually defenders in the comments there’s Defenders there’s people there’s process Defenders process Defenders that’s a new thing that I just learned existed because I think a lot of times I’ll say something right and I’ll be damn sure I’ll be damn sure nobody’s going to argue I’ll be like nobody can argue this if I say the process failed nobody can argue that right right you can’t argue that oh but they will oh but they will and so here’s some of the comments here’s what the post said is it crazy that the player the Sixers traded to start the process is about to be a two-time NBA champion and the process was a failure you cannot write how cursed the Sixers are as an NBA franchise and here is some of the comments that are I guess defending uh defending that or arguing against that um somebody said I can’t believe you guys are still fans and I said you know it’s just in our blood if you don’t understand that you just don’t understand that um somebody saidwe the fans have to stop living in the past and what could have been should have would have happened no we don’t we literally don’t have to do that we can complain about the Sixers franchise forever as long as we want to uh because me personally I’ve been watching it since ’95 and nothing great has happened the Iverson era was fun to watch uh at least that went deep into the playoffs you know at least I got to witness an NBA Finals appearance uh but no we’re always going to complain about the Sixers they’ve been losing forever um here’s one it wasn’t the process wasn’t a fail we ended up with Joel embiid I could I can see if he was the star of the team I can see if he was the star of the team I don’t know what that means he’s a solid role player that that we traded oh they’re talking about Drew holiday okay it wasn’t a fail we ended up with him beat I could see if he was the star of the team he’s a solid role player that we traded and end up with an MVP Drew holiday was an Allstar in 2013 before the Sixers traded him and I’m not saying Drew holiday uh is the star of the team either as far as stats go but I did say I got into a big argument on the Discord a couple of months ago because I said that Drew h was a major part of that Milwaukee Bucks Championship run and maybe the biggest part of it and what I meant by that was they were down 02 in that NBA final series by trying to force Giannis an to to kumbo from the top of the key and as soon as buen hoer finally started putting the ball more in Drew holiday’s hands and running the game from the top of the key and putting Giannis under the rim and letting Drew holiday create the offense they won the NBA Championship so Drew holiday is the exact epitome of a player that is insanely valuable and the stat sheet will never show it who is the star of the Celtics team right now it ain’t Jason Tatum so far in two games Jaylen Brown’s been cooking and his defense has been unbelievable also and you know as much as I’ve talked about Jaylen Brown being the highest NBA player a paid NBA player of all time and and everything the past two years he’s proven me me wrong Jaylen Brown is proving to be incredibly valuable and of course they have porzingis and Derek white and I mean the team’s just absolutely stacked so Tatum doesn’t have to carry but Drew holiday is a major major major reason that that team is as good as it is right now an offensive and defensive point guard facilitator can catch and shoot can can bully people in the paint can finish at the ri I mean the dude is is unbelievable and the Sixers traded him and if they would have saw if they if they would have found a different way to get to top of the draft while keeping Drew holiday uh and let him develop over the years they could have slowly built a championship roster one thing you could have done you could look always look in hindsight but say they keep Drew holiday right and then in 200 what 14 you draft yanis s Dumbo or 2013 Holiday was drafted 2011 I believe or maybe 2010 uh yeah if they could draft correctly or if they just maybe maybe Giannis wasn’t a draft pick that anybody knew was going to be a superstar but other teams seem to get lucky we got lucky on Tyrese Maxi don’t get me wrong but they if they would have just gotten lucky at some point in that 2010 to 20 whatever uh you know you could have had holiday and Giannis and build around that you wouldn’t have had to tank and be at the top of the draft five years at the top of the draft and the only player you came up with was Joel embiid that’s crazy uh someone said at this point are you a fan or not yeah a frustrated one to be fair the NBA stopped the process before the GM was finished that’s a take that I that I always kind of uh fire back on because when you really look at what Sam hanky was doing as the years go by and I watch other teams build uh contenders and build teams that fit and make sense I’m sorry guys I know people loved Sam Hy at the time and I know Sam Hy was heralded as the the process and Hy died for our sins and whatever else when you really look at it Sam hanky had no clue what he was doing as far as building an NBA roster Sam hanky all he did was gutted the team to be the worst team possible to get to the top of the draft but once he was at the top of the draft he drafted the best player available every single time and did not think about fit around Joel embiid to be fair Joel embiid was still a mythical creature at the time and I guess people didn’t know that he was ever going to play because of the foot thing but if he would have just said Joel’s going to be healthy in the next year or so I should draft for fit around Joel embiid and if I can’t get that at number one I should trade out of it looking back this is what you should have done it’s easy to look back and say what you should have done but that’s what he should have done drafting a 610 Point guarder won’t shoot the ball we probably should have traded out of that pick drafting Marquel folz was a good pick I’m I don’t care what anybody says he was a 41% three-point shooter in college he was the best uh three-point shooter off the dribble in college he averaged 31 points per game he was the best pullup mid-range shooter he made perfect sense as a ball creating off the dribble shooter in in college and he was the unanimous number one he forgot how to shoot or he hurt his shoulder and never learned how to shoot again that might be the craziest story in NBA history really cuz how the [ __ ] does that happen the Ben Simmons thing you could see the signs right if you if you dug deep and looked at his at his draft profiles and what people were saying in Australia and what people were saying at LSU you could have made the case to not draft Ben Simmons number one or you could have traded out of the pick cuz you you thought he wasn’t going to fit with Joelle that probably would have been a smart move but the Marquel folz thing was totally unpredictable and that might be the craziest thing that could happen to an NBA franchise or trading for uh Andrew bham and he tears his ACL in a bowling alley right but it’s okay to say the process was a failure bro they haven’t been out of the second round they didn’t even get out of the first round this year it’s okay to say that man um what else we got man uh Drew we failed you uh terrible GM after terrible GM can’t draft quality Talent can’t trade for Jack [ __ ] can’t recognize potential if it was back hanging them in the face not crazy the process made every team better except the [Laughter] Sixers this was a fun one not cursed just a horrible front office you traded Drew away because you drafted MCW early on they traded MCW too drafted three centers and beat Oka for Noel traded away all your assets for fults traded away all your assets for fults not really gave Simmons and Toby max deals and kicked Jimmy Butler to the curb it’s like nobody in that front office watches basketball yeah that all of those but it is cursed because the fols thing is why I say they’re cursed because even when they did do the right thing and drafted the perfect player he somehow lost his ability to shoot a basketball I need people to understand how insane that is that’s insane and it will never happen again only to the Sixers only to the Sixers that’s why I say they’re cursed traded for Andrew Bam put Billboards up and the guy tour his ACL in a bowling alley and never played a single game for the S that’s crazy somebody cast a spell on this team team in a past life that’s what happened that’s why Drew holiday is on the thumbnail I just wanted to rant a little bit about how crazy it is that you started what you thought was going to be a winning formula by trading this player and he is now taking his second team to an NBA championship and the Celtics are stacked and there’s nothing we can do about it as much as I hate the Celtics look at the team they were the your Celtics fans you were right the whole season I called them frauds all year I said they don’t have a winning mentality when you have that many good players on a roster I don’t think Jason Tatum has a winning mentality but when you have that many good players on a roster Jason Tatum doesn’t have to have a Mamba mentality he doesn’t have to be Kobe Bryant he doesn’t have to be Allen Iverson he doesn’t have to be LeBron James Michael Jordan he can just be Jason Tatum which is let’s be serious Jason Tatum’s a really high level role player he’s a really good player I would I would have loved Jason Tatum over Marl folz at this point obviously he would have fit perfectly with Joel embiid even Tyrese Maxi it would have been great but Jason Tatum’s not a not a guy that’s going to drag an under underman team anywhere like say Jimmy Butler did like say Allen Iverson did in the early 2000s like say LeBron did with the Cleveland Cavaliers Jason Tatum’s a really good player and he’s just there again he’s the he’s the Michael Jordan of Tobias Harris’s it is what it is he’s a good player but he’s not an MVP the only thing I argue anymore about it is when when Celtics fans try to put him in the MVP run he’s not an MVP good player has great games has bad games so far in these finals he’s had like what two 16-point games or something like that Kyrie Irving is costing me money damn it there’s a second game I bet on Kyrie Irving to do something and he’s had two terrible games so far I they’re down 02 maybe they turn it around in Dallas but I don’t see it happening the Celtics are going to win the championship but uh Drew holiday to start the process just ends up being a player that is a big reason for that can the Sixers finally get out of turmoil for the first time in my life like what what’s it going to take I really think maybe just maybe Joel like Joel embiid we wanted him to be that guy that could finally take us out of the basement and and bring a winning culture and everybody’s always hurt Joel has the skill set the ability the dominance the very very rare package of everything together but he has an injury issue the only thing that we can see right now that could possibly change the course of the future for this franchise is Tyrese Maxi so maybe in the next couple of years Tyrese Maxi gets this team out of turmoil out of purgatory that they’ve been in since 1985 our next hope is Tyrese Maxi I don’t think it’s Joel embiid anymore guys I’m sorry he’s never healthy last year was my final straw On Believing that and he got hurt again this upcoming season who knows but if you were a betting man you should probably just bet that he’s going to be hurt again Billy King was absolutely worse than Elton BR he ruins Ivers he ruined Iverson’s best years with his brain dead moves I agree with I agree he was terrible he did ruin Iverson’s best years with his brain dead moves he he also almost traded Allen Iverson in his prime uh there was a potential Tracy McGrady Allen Iverson trade that didn’t go through a lot of things traded the Ratliff uh traded Theo Ratliff uh because he fractured his leg and they were you kind of had to do that because of what are you doing bro lay down you kind of had to do that because uh they started the season like 15 and0 or something they had the best record in the NBA and they knew they had a shot at at an NBA final so they had to go all in I mean more cursed franchises Clippers or Sixers well I don’t know much about when did were the Clippers when were the Clippers were the Clippers an expansion team or something they haven’t been around as long as the Sixers right no I feel like the first time I saw the Clippers was in the 90s sometime uh anyway thank you guys for the super chats man I appreciate you so there’s a couple things that I want to talk

out he sent me a clip from this Twitter account called NBA Insider goat okay I have no idea who this is uh but it has 8,371 followers and I’ve been reading through the tweets that this account makes and it’s it’s claiming that it’s an NBA Insider and it seems creepily accurate okay uh NBA Insider at least recently this Twitter page was one of the first ones to shoot down the JJ reck rumors everyone last week thought JJ reck was the uh new head coach of the LA Lakers and it was set in stone and it was a done deal and JJ reck was going to be the coach of the Lakers and it was over and this account was out here saying that’s not true hold your horses this is what I’m hearing this is what I’m hearing and this account keeps talking about how they have really good inside information and if you just go just go to at NBA Insider goat if you want to look at it yourself and just go like scroll back months through the tweets and it seems to be incredibly accurate so it is possible that there’s you know somebody that is has sources that talk to NBA in that talk to NBA Executives Etc and gets rumors and drops them incognito on Twitter without putting his name out there he doesn’t even put his voice out there that’s the funniest part about this but he was like hold up take it easy D Yukon head coach Dan Hurley is who the Lakers are really looking at not JJ reck and now after he said that he posted this and then rumors start to come out about Dan Hurley uh being interviewed by the LA Lakers so another thing that he was pretty accurate about okay but I want you to hear this that this and you can you can haha this is stupid this is not a real account this is whatever that’s fine um but here’s what somebody posted that was sent to me uh in one of these Twitter spaces that whoever this person is does where he apparently has inside sources and drops rumors he dropped this little piece right here and he disguises his voice in these Twitter spaces and this is what he said just listen I will just drop some free news because I love my people Paul George is looking like he will make his way to Philadelphia Ingram to Cleveland early ramblings but this is what I have heard also as an add-on Max Christie will have an increased role as a Laker regardless of the next coach hold up let me play it again man is this what we’re doing Eastwood is this really what we’re doing we’re listening to a robot voice on Twitter drop NBA rumors I’m telling you though you see all the signs point to this account actually being connected to inside sources he’s he’s pretty damn accurate with everything that he tweets it’s why he has almost 9,000 followers on this random ass account without showing his face or his name or anything sounds pretty listen to this I will just drop some free news because I love my people Paul George is looking like he will make his way to Philadelphia Ingram to Paul George is looking like he will make his way to Philadelphia and those rumors have been swirling for a while now obviously because the Clippers have yet to offer him a Max contract I’ve been saying for for for weeks if the Clippers don’t offer it I know who’s going to offer it it’s going to be darl mury he has a history of these things he will offer Paul George that Max contract that he wants and if that happens and and if the Clippers don’t match it Paul George will probably do what’s financially what’s Best in his financial interests or the longevity of his of his career in getting paid top NBA money he will probably choose the longer contract that pays him more money over that period of time that’s just the smart thing to do financially whereas you know if the Clippers are only offering him two years or or three years at less money it it it there’s a potential for your career to be cut short uh before that ends there’s a potential for you to make a lot lot less money over the course of those years whereas if you get the if you get the four-year uh 200 plus million it’s a smarter thing to do this person who claims to have inside sources and from what I’ve seen seems to be pretty accurate with everything that he says on here sounds pretty confident that Paul George is coming to Philadelphia out of all of the things like the Jimmy Butler rumors the Paul George rumors the O of the Pelicans trade Brandon Ingram this this just said Brandon Ingram to Cleveland I don’t know how accurate that will be either but if you look at all of the things and the rumors and oh if they draft bronny LeBron can come here the Paul George one sounds the most realistic it does and if you’re looking at it from a business standpoint as far as 76ers ownership right because they’re trying to bleed this turnup as for as long as they can every year they’re just what’s the next thing we can do to sell hope to the fans again to get them to come back to the arena that’s all we want to do we don’t actually have to win we got to have a new sales pitch every year that’s what it is it’s a business so if you want a new sales pitch pitch after two years ago we were done and they fired Doc Rivers hired Nick nurse well two years ago we were done and they made the James Harden thing or whatever or it was the second year of the James Harden thing so they were like wait wait wait the first year he was out of shape he had a hamstring issue they said this time it’s going to work that failed they said okay we’re going to get we’re going to let James Harden uh we’re going to fire Doc Rivers we’re going to hire Nick nurse that’s a new sales pitch then then Daryl trades James Harden for that’s a new sales pitch right that was this upcoming season that fails you need another sales pitch what’s the sales pitch now Paul George obviously that’s the only thing left so the Sixers not just uh in the not just in the idea of like what’s the best options out there to try to make this team better as quick as possible Paul George makes the most sense but from a business standpoint what do we have left to sell hope to the fans one more time one or two more times Les we got to sell Hope just one or two more times from a business standpoint you give Paul George a Max contract you put him on a banner outside the arena you sell hope again and you continue the process of uh just duping and tricking everyone into continuing to buy tickets to watch a team not it out of the second round that’s Ultra negative do I think Paul George could help them get I do think Paul George could help them get out of the second round actually I would probably have more confidence in year five Tyrese Maxi joeel and beu probably gets hurt at some point hopefully it’s early enough to where he’s healthy for the playoffs again and Paul George I would have more faith I think in adding Paul George to this roster right now than I had in the James Harden team the second year I had Faith though but I saw it quickly that it was the same thing over again um but I think I would have confidence that that that team gets you out of the second round for the first time in 20 years no why would I think that what am I [Laughter] saying why am I lying to myself on a Monday afternoon we’re going to fall for it we’re going to fall for it hook line and [ __ ] Sinker and we’re GNA buy Paul George jerseys bro we’re GNA fall for it so hard this is a toxic relationship we keep taking her back what do you guys think man yo Vin C man thanks for the $10 Super Chat I appreciate you so much options for Clippers if Paul George leaves for the opt-in trade options for Clippers if Paul George leaves for the opin trade are you asking me what the Clippers options would be if Paul George opts in to his player option and they sign and trade him are you saying a sign and trade is an option for the Clippers if Paul George wants to leave if you’re saying uh options for the Clippers if Paul George leaves for the opt-in trade if you’re saying a sign in trade is an option the Clippers have if Paul George wants to leave that’s true because at that point you if Paul George says listen guys you’re not offering me what I want yeah but then he wouldn’t opt in though because that’s not how he’s going to get that four-year Max contract opting in isn’t opting in isn’t going to get him that four-year Max contract well I don’t know is it opting into a one-year player option I guess then the Sixers could sign him to an extension I don’t know dude this is giving me a headache but anyway thank you for the Super Chat I appreciate you sorry if I didn’t actually answer a question you were asking still going to say I want Pascal seaka ah I don’t like the fit man I don’t like the fit bro I like Pascal what he brings to a team but the whole thing is about Joel embiid I know a lot of people are over it a lot of people are over the Joel embiid stuff and they’re like we need to move on we need to build the team this way this way or this way it doesn’t matter as long as Joel embiid still playing he’s still an MVP level you’re going to build the team around Joel embid that’s just uh how you’re going to do it and Pascal seakan from a fit standpoint just doesn’t really make sense alongside Joel beat you know what I mean Paul George makes more sense would it be nice to have 29-year-old Paul George versus 35-year old Paul George of course it would but this is where we are man do the Sixers give two or three picks for Paul George see that’s and thank you for another Super Chat um so that’s where I would I think be upset this is the reason I’m I’m okay with the Paul George signing because it’s just free agency it’s just cap space money and you know as much as yeah you don’t want to you don’t want to blow 50 mil of a 65 million on one guy you’re not giving up future assets you’re just signing them outright and then you still have all the other assets you have five tradeable first round picks Etc to do other things and try to get other players that can fit around and and and have a a better uh collection of role guys than you ended up having this past season which resulted in the worst bench in the NBA although we thought they were deep at some points it turned out that they weren’t deep enough uh with you know ending up with Kyle Lowry playing 40 minutes a game in the playoffs and burning out and all of those types of things so if you can sign Paul George and keep your assets to then do other things that’s probably the best option but if if if he opts in and they sign and trade him and then you got to give up two or three first for him no absolutely not I’m not giving up two or three first round picks for to to max out a 35y old player that’s crazy you know what I’m saying Hebrew hammer that’s exactly bro what other choice do we have there’s no other that’s how Sixers fans got to look at it Sixers fans are all you know I don’t want to do this we shouldn’t do this we shouldn’t do that this backs against the wall man backs against the wall what else can you do what other options do you have who knows man it’ll probably blow up and not work but it is what it is so another sixer Galaxy six or daily offseason scenario uh and here’s one that they put together uh myself and sixer daily created another offseason scenario that includes the Acquisitions of Brandon Ingram and one of the best backup centers in the league now is Brandon Ingram a perfect fit I wouldn’t say so but if you look at how close I look at Brandon Ingram right now is a much better Tobias Harris is he mostly a mid-range shooter yes does he not really enjoy stretching the floor and shooting threes no he doesn’t uh but if you just look at the team and say you know if if Tobias Harris just gave us 15 points in game six do we end up getting out of the first round you know what I’m saying like it was really that close as much as we want to talk [ __ ] on the roster construction and how much the team sucks or whatever they were actually that close they just got no production from anybody outside of idita Maxi I mean what a game six they both had 30 plus points and you got a goose egg from Kyle Lowry and Tobias Harris like if you just got they Lo they lost every game in that series by like less than five points if you just had a third guy that could get a [ __ ] bucket they would have been out of the first round they probably would have beat the Pacers they probably would have been in the Eastern Conference Finals so is Brandon Ingram a perfect fit no but if you would end up with Brandon Ingram does it get you out of the second round I think it possibly could when you look at the whole Eastern Conference and kind of how weak it ended up being um this whole year so there’s a Brandon Ingram trade in here uh Tyrese Maxi 5ye $25 million extension sign and trade Brandon Ingram four years2 that’s 50 million for Brandon inam 50 million a year for Brandon Ingram is this what we’re doing now I guess pretty soon 50 million a year will be like high high mid high level basketball money because the best players are starting to get 6570 which is consistently blowing my mind because I don’t know what you do with that much money but 50 Milli year for Brandon Ingram and with him not being a perfect fit because you would like a guy that stretches the floor a little better than him you’re committing to four years of Brandon Ingram I also don’t I don’t like that I also don’t think Daryl Murray would do that because I’m not I don’t even know if Daryl muray knows who Brandon Ingram is Let’s see we got a DeAnthony Melton sign four years 56 million I like the Anthony Melton as a utility guy off the bench I love what he brings to the table with his just attitude work ethic the way he plays the game he’s just a he walks into the game and in you know a hoodie and just get [ __ ] done and doesn’t talk and I I respect that and I love it partially because I’m so tired of the divas that have been on this team for so long um but the back issue last year scared me at only 25 years old I mean I guess if he’s healthy sure uh Nicholas patum one year 4.5 if he wants to come back I’m all for it can we minimize his minutes sure but Nicholas patum is a guy that you know he brings a lot of good things to the team uh his catch and shoot ability his quick trigger is great it’s it’s so valuable what you want on this team uh next to Joel and tyes and then and his ability to set up Joel when they run the high low with Batum and Joelle it was great he’s probably the best passing he’s definitely the best passing big man uh Joel’s ever played with and and him and Joel embiid created a level of chemistry last season I would I’d like to see another year of that for sure Cameron Payne yes please please resign Cameron Payne please resign Cameron Payne I love Cameron pain that dude brings a level of dog off the bench that this team has not had for such a long time bro his confidence level is crazy he comes into a game where nobody’s doing [ __ ] and he’s like you know what give me the ball and he just he just has an attitude like he is the the best player on the planet every time he’s on the floor and I respect that so much I love Cameron Payne yes please Kelly UB yes please um talked about that a million times already I want Kelly UB back pause Kelly UB Cameron Payne it this is a good Supporting Cast if you if you if you landed Brandon Ingram in the trade and then Kelly UB Cameron Payne Batum DeAnthony Melton and if everybody stays healthy then you know so here’s what they wrote down as part of the Brandon Ingram sign and trade they will be trading Paul Reed they will be trading a second round pick they will be trading our pick number 13 in this year’s NBA draft 2026 no that’s 2026 pick swap that’s the best between OKC Houston la which came in the James Harden trade they would be trading the unprotected 2028 first round pick from the Clippers is that what that is that what that is no it would say it would say Clippers there that’s that’s the Sixers own 2028 first round pick which I don’t actually think is tradable I don’t think they can trade their own first round pick until 2029 because of uh NBA rules on trading first round picks so I don’t think that’s possible if you’re talking about the Sixers first round pick and if you’re talking about the 2028 Clippers unprotected pick absolutely not cuz that pick is going to have insane value and it could possibly be at the top of the draft by 2028 and you don’t trade that for Brandon Ingram uh but if you put if you if you change this 20128 to 2029 first round pick maybe that’s it um and then they have a Nas Reed trade the Sixers trade their 16th pick this season in this upcoming draft and three seconds for Nas Reed Nas Reed was an absolute dog for the Minnesota Timberwolves in in the playoffs this season and uh as a backup center yes absolutely if you could get Nas Reed for the 16th pick in this lame NBA draft that’s about to happen in three seconds 100% yes so you feel you get an actual backup center who you know sadly I just don’t think Paul Reed is that guy he showed us last year that he’s not Brandon Ingram Nas Reed resign these guys that’s pretty good and here’s what the uh starting line here’s what the lineups would look like Tyrese Maxi DeAnthony Melton Brandon Ingram that’s a terrible picture of the guy man uh Nick Batum Joel embiid Kyle Lowry Cameron Payne Kelly UB Ricky Council Nas Reed hopefully Ricky council is much more of a a part of the rotation this season I’d still rather a younger more athletic bigger point guard then Kyle Lowry right there Kyle Lowry is 79 years old I like what he brought to the team last season but I’m good off Kyle Lowry I don’t need Kyle Lowry back even though they’re probably going to do it because Nick nurse loves him and Daryl mury Only Knows players older than 35 years old and then their remaining assets is this their assets I always I can never figure out if they’re talking about this is their assets before all of these trades go down or this is the remaining assets after all these trades go down five first round picks four second round picks on future pick swap so there’s that man uh it’s not the best option but if you guys are that are arguing you shouldn’t be chasing aging Superstars you should be chasing depth then this is definitely probably the best way they could build depth without uh uh build depth while not signing somebody like Paul George or trading for Jimmy Butler or anything that team is a second round knockout waiting to happen how do you figure that team couldn’t beat the Pacers bro Joel embiid year five Tyrese Maxi Brandon Ingram Nas Reed is your backup center campaign DeAnthony Melton Kelly UB off the bench that team doesn’t beat the Indiana Pacers come on bro come on I want to talk [ __ ] on the Sixers too but we got to be realistic bro that team’s beating the Pacers in the second round or whoever’s in the second round next season the Cavs the damn Nicks if it is the that team’s that team’s getting out of the second round or I’m lying to myself and you’re 100% accurate if Brandon Ingram goes cold then he’s useless and it happens to be very streaky 100% that’s why uh he’s really is a third option really you’re looking at him as a third option the problem with the Pelicans was that they were trying to look at Brandon Ingram as a first option I think it’s clear now that he’s not that think it’s clear now that he’s not a first option but Brandon Ingram has a third option who knows you know what I mean that’s where I’m at with it we need a ball handler uh low is cooked I agree I would move on from Melton because of his back yeah his back definitely scares me especially last it was crazy it was like handle your own I don’t even know what that means bro y’all getting weird man RJ what up I’ve been a fraud I’ve been so down on this team I’ve been forgetting to watch the new videos it’s all good brother yeah had to take a break from the nonsense I got you uh this team frustr frustrates me so much I’m going to keep it a buck with you guys if I wasn’t at the point now where I’m making money doing this I probably would have taken a two Monon that you guys are even here and a sign and trade for Paul George what would you give better than Brandon Ingram I wouldn’t be interested in a signning trade for Paul George bro I would not be interested in a signing trades for Paul George I can’t give a 30 5-year-old player a Max contract while giving up future assets I would not be interested in a sign and trade for Paul George anyway Nas re is 69 we have to stop putting power forwards in his backup centers that’s a solid take it’s a solid take although Nas Reed is just very athletic for his size and has a a wild uh just hustle mentality and he’s strong as hell and he never quit um but would it be nice to have a seven-footer back there of course it would I mean look what look what Isaiah hartstein did to us in the playoffs how tall is Isaiah hartenstein oh he’s seven feet tall son of a [ __ ] you’re right son of a [ __ ] you’re right anyway uh yeah thanks for tuning
