There's a difference when you're dealing from a position of strength vs desperate. Phil doesn't have to do anything. Others teams will call making offers. That will make the situation far better.

its ok to admit he didnt too good on those. Hopefully he learns from his mistakes

I really don't have an issue with what he got. You can kill getting Calderon but he seemed like a really good fit and was hurt almost the entire year. I don't think there was any reason to hold onto Tyson to wait to see if a bigger offer came up at the deadline. His value was at an all time low because of his poor, uninspired play and all the time he missed due to injury. Phil wasn't bringing Shump back and wanted to move JR. I do think Shump should have been moved at the deadline the previous year but once that didn't happen I don't have an issue with getting two seconds for those two. They needed to move on and maybe they will find sustainable success in Cleveland or wherever they end up. It wasn't happening for them in NY.

He's the easy target since most everyone is gone. After they trade Jose or stretch him then we can resume the usual escape goat... Melo.

That dude is too slow for today's game. He takes forever to make a decision; as a result, he ends up hurting our flow

Crush: Where are you seeing that? Not questioning you, I would like to read it if it's on the web. Thanks

He's not a good shooter that is for sure. Hes got a long way with that jumpshot--which takes a lot of time to get off and I like that word "clunky" I heard today. He was making sure to step in past the 3 point line and was just not on--seemed to labor was not spry in his movements. I don't think hes the athlete that a John Wall is and with a jumper that is going to take time--I just dont see the necessity for this player at 4 in ANYWAY.

yeah that jumper looked awful at times. smh

I could see them being happy with Mudiay and another pick over just Russell. Mudiay fits their scheme, but they don't want to reach for him.

Is Mudiay really that much of an upgrade over MCW, though? I'm not sure he is.

mudiay to sixers is false rumor, i dont see that anywhere

I don't believe that rumor at all- he seems very enthusiastic about the Sixers, posted photos of himself in a sixers uni after the lottery, played with Embiid before and was very enthusiastic following his recent workout. Why would he have agreed to the Sixers rescheduled workout if he didn't want to play for them?
