The Official NBA Season Thread: Season Starts Now

[storm2006]

I swear that half the NBACentral tweets these days got me scrolling back up to see if they were actually "NBACentel"

 

[akajae]

He did it for Poole. Why not Cliff Paul?

 

[dacomeup]

I respect the Baltimore dude sticking up for Melo

 

[elpablo21]

On the BallDon'tStop pod? Makes even more sense

 

[N41D]

Getting Williams took them out of that possibility it seems, if there was any to begin with

I don’t think you want a first rounder and hardaway. Green and hardy are there but who even knows their value, plus I doubt nico is going to trade them tbh

Otherwise there’s maxi and McGee

They weren't swimming in those waters regardless no matter how perfect Pascal is for this roster.

Dude really used up his remaining juice when he forced his way to Philly

Even rebuilding Houston said nah they're good this offseason

Him under Nurse is gonna be fascinating

 

[you go boy]

if harden really wanted to leave why didnt he just opt out instead of picking up his option? I know he wants his cake and eat it too but you know Morey will let this drag out similar to the ben situation

I think most of the hesitancy comes from him wanting a max deal rather than his ability to contribute on the court as a floor general.

From the Sixers perspective, I don't mind Morey keeping Tobias and Harden while letting their contracts expire. It opens up two max slots next summer while still being competitive in the East (a tier below Boston and Miami though).

 

[reconic supreme]

I can only see Philly dealing him if they have a mid/struggling record at the break.

Otherwise it's just hard for me to see how Morey can sell Embiid on Norm and Mann this coming season. This is one of the few cases where even though it had disappointing results 2 years in a row, the alternative to running it back could be way worse imo.

morey will extend him

 

[nick.]

I see we're at the "he's just misunderstood" part of the Kyrie/new team movie.

He'll be out of there in less than a year.

this is big true. just a factory for interactions and clickbait now. definitely not valid NBA news

 

[dacomeup]

Philly is gonna have him and Tobias coming off the books next summer. That FA class doesn’t look appealing at all though

You'd have to think the next disgruntled star would want to link up with Embiid whether it's via trade or free agency.

[SORIANOTRON]

Me and my homies call Tyler Herro Ty Ty.

 

[youngthundercat]

Wait y’all cats really don’t know who TyTy is?

Lavine is one of the guys Philly is interested in

How does that work when Embiid is the next disgruntled star?

 

[xxpizzo]

what he going to be disgruntled about besides his own play ?

yall want it to happen so bad

ill put $200 up it aint embiid

 

[HIM]

Oh ok

 

[DLF]

Dubs got 73 mill in expiring contracts. 2 lotto picks in Kuminga and Moody. 1 good first rounder in Podiemski and 2 future 1st and 3 pick swaps.

Watch out.

Spent a little time listening to that station when I was up in the Bay Area last week. Crazy to me that they have an all-day FM sports station. Get a lot of wild takes on there because they have a lot of time to fill with content.
