The Philadelphia 76ers Just Did EXACTLY What The NBA Feared..

the Philadelphia 7even airs are embarrassing the NBA and they absolutely hates what this team is doing the 76ers are in the best position possible and they’re far from reaching their ultimate potential the Philadelphia 76ers just did exactly what the NBA feared and that what we’re going to talk about in this video for the starting shooting guard position my pick would be Alex Caruso however this seems unlikely the Bulls didn’t even entertain offers for him at the trade deadline and Rec ly Joi of the Chicago Times wrote unless a team comes in with an offer the Bulls can’t refuse Caruso isn’t going anywhere the hope is the two sides can try working on an extension this summer now putting myself in the shoes of darl Mory Elton brand and Nick nurse the decision makers they must recognize our big three are a dynamic offensive group they should be able to shoulder a significant offensive load and to maximize their potential I need to ensure they don’t have overwhelming responsibilities the Sixers defensive potential can’t solely depend on embiid’s level of Engagement last season when embiid was focused they had a solid defense primarily due to his presence as a seven-footer however we also need better defensive support for Tyrese Maxi and particularly for Paul George Who at 34 years old is starting to decline defensively in my opinion the Sixers need to find a guard who who can consistently defend the opposing team’s best guard regardless of the matchup last year we often had to rely on Kelly UB for guard matchups which put the Sixers at a size disadvantage if the other team had a strong forward having a dedicated Defender for players like Damen Lillard or Jaylen Brunson would be a significant Advantage it allows the team to prepare confidently knowing exactly who will handle these tough matchups this strategy also extends to the forward position position the team needs a forward who can take on the opposing team’s best forward every night relieving 34-year-old Paul George from this demanding role it’s impractical to expect George to defend the best forwards every game in an 82 game schedule and at this stage of his career he likely wouldn’t want to focus on that another thing to keep in mind the more you reduce the responsibilities of your star players the more you will see them excel in hustling defense and two-way play this this brings me to the trade machine the Brooklyn Net strategy is uncertain but it’s clear that one of Cam Johnson Mel Bridges or Dorian Finn Smith must be traded or else they’re incompetent well they might be incompetent but I believe Finn Smith will be dealt especially since they don’t have a pick this year I would offer the Sixers number 16 pick and another future first rounder for Dorian Finn Smith he’s the ideal starting forward for the Sixers if they acquire Paul George you want a player whose offense revolves around catching and shooting who can also beat Closeouts Additionally you need someone who will draw Closeouts from defenses because he is respected as a catch and shoot threat his time in Brooklyn has been quite unusual he hasn’t been surrounded by the type of talent that could maximize his potential so it’s not surprising that his stats have declined essentially he’s been playing alongside similar players like cam Johnson who was almost identical and Mikel br who is a more advanced version of finny Smith these aren’t the types of players that will bring out the best in him he needs to be surrounded by star players with significant offensive gravity shot creators and Playmakers like Maxi embiid and Paul George in that environment you would see him perform at his best defensively on the Sixers I’m confident he’d return to his 2022 performance levels rather than what we’ve seen in Brooklyn Indiana his last season in Dallas he averaged 11 points shooting 5 threes per game at 40% and was a consistent playoff performer in Dallas last two playoff series he shot 42% from three on six attempts per game he can guard multiple positions allowing for Creative defensive schemes with Paul George and Dorian Finn Smith on the floor they can easily switch defensive assignments because they share a similar player archetype he would also willingly take on matchups against stars like J Jason Tatum Jimmy Butler Luca donic and Kevin Durant for most of the game offensively and defensively he fits seamlessly in my opinion I really appreciated Kyle Lowry in the starting lineup because of his High basketball IQ he contributed effectively to both offense and defense however his age prevented him from consistently performing at a high level for the final starting spot I would sign Chris dun with the $8 million mid-level exception the Sixers have available Dunn reminds me of a Kyle Lowry type of player he’s one of the best perimeter defenders in the league similar to Alex Caruso his defensive prowess is outstanding creating transition opportunities by poking the ball loose he would instantly become a key Defender against guards like Brunson Damen Lillard and Steph Curry excelling at the point of attack and navigating around screens offensively Dunn is a very good playmaker he can handle the point guard position allowing Maxi to play off ball running off screens and creating scoring opportunities dun’s primary value is on the defensive end hustling and doing the little things that don’t show up in the Box Score however he’s not a liability offensively he shot 38.5% on catch Ando threes overall he thrives when the defense is scrambling while it would be ideal to have five confident quick trigger Shooters that’s not realistic for most rusters outside of Boston Maxi Paul George and Dorian Finn Smith are all quick trigger Shooters and Joel embiid is also a capable shooter from the perimeter this provides four reliable Shooters in the starting unit Chris dun can be inconsistent sometimes going hot and cold with his confidence fluctuating nonetheless his defensive contributions and ability to create transition opportunities make him a valuable addition to the team that would be my ideal starting lineup with Paul George and I believe it’s a realistic option let me know your thoughts in the comments section below I genuinely think this starting unit has the potential to be one of the best offensive and defensive squads in the league if they develop the proper chemistry additionally I believe that by next year Maxi will become a positive defender in most games he made significant strides last season that often go unnoticed although he will still have some defensive shortcomings due to his size his constant hustle is a major asset off the ball he misses rotations occasionally but he has improved significantly compared to his rookie season share your thoughts on my starting five in the comments section I’d love to see your starting five as well if you enjoyed this please
