It's not a degree btw, just a certification
Good for him for going back to school though, athletes need better management skills

Philly did it to themselves.

Tanking on purpose will never get you anywhere. The basketball Gods won't allow for it.

Malone gonna flourish in Denver :\

 

[Olympus]

But who else are you drafting after Parker and Wiggins? The highest rated prospect after Embiid at that point was Dante Exum. HUGE talent drop off from Embiid. With a ceiling as high as his, you have to take that risk because the talent drop off between him and the next best player available was far too great to let him pass off what might be a minor injury that's been overcome before.

Dude had back problems and foot problems and is 7 ft. What did you guys think was gonna happen? He was gonna just be good to play an NBA season?

 

[johnnyredstorm]

damn man that can't be true about embiid.

 

[comptonprince]

How many years of team basketball has Embiid actually played? 

Wasn't he a late starter?

 

[nick.]

great hire by Denver

Embiid

When I think Mike Malone, I don't think of an up-and-down system like Denver likes to employ.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[dat dude chris]

I am pretty sure Denver is looking to switch things up?

Likely leads to the fire sale of Lawson and Faried

Nope, and I don't get how your finalists are D'Antoni and Malone. Two completely contrasting styles.

salary dump plus first rounders.

 

[Olympus]

Thats a bad trade for Hou Lawson is nice but I aint trading 2 talented Bigs for him Ball dominant PG with Harden won't work well
