By Omega Go To Posthas anyone ever learned to play defense? You can't teach effort, a player either has it or not.
This idea that defense is all effort is just unadulterated bullshit. You think Steve Nash didn't try hard enough on defense? FOH.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostDraymond Green and Andrew Bogut were bad defenders when they were 22.
Klay couldn't guard anyone when he came in. Same for Redick
By Truphenom Go To PostWell a lot of ppl are expecting a bunch and I'm sure screaming A will do his clown dance again. Somehow this dumpster team is supposed to accomplish somethingThen they are in for a rude awakening. All we can hope is the playoffs since we have no pick. If we get decent FA then we can build from there after this upcoming season. I might want to fuck around and tank again
Sacramento is trading Jason Thompson and Carl Landry as part of a salary dump to the Philadelphia 76ers, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.
76ers with two more big men, omg.
Kings preparing the worst contract in the league for Rondo.
76ers got Nik Stauskas for the salary dump.
I mean, Nik is trash, but the Kings just trashed the 8th pick in the draft for absolutely nothing.
Disappointed Llull decided to stay in Spain. Could have had a nice three-man rotation if we managed to also retain PatBev. Not really sure what Morey's gonna do to get Harden the help he's asked for.
Davis extending in New Orleans. Grizz adding good depth. Spurs frontrunner for LMA. Lots of movement in the Southwest, though not from us.

sixers got stauskas--still some potential there obvs--not a bad move, but they need to sign actual talent
By IWMTB19 Go To Post76ers with two more big men, omg.Somethings missing there. 76'ers take on contracts, but they only do it with picks or Assets.
Kings preparing the worst contract in the league for Rondo.
Are the kings sending away 1st rounders?
ummmm ok? there goes all our front court depth?no way this is just for Rondo
for the love of fuck don't give Rondo a mutli-year deal
knux, breh, enjoy JT
he hustles like a motherfucker but he's still dumber than a bag of dicks

Sources: 76ers sending the rights of oveseas players to Kings as part of Philly wanted Stauskus and will take on Thompson/Landry salaries.
SARIC????? WHAAAAA

By IWMTB19 Go To PostThe 76ers own the rights to a dozen overseas players.
It'd be way funnier if it was Saric.
Let me dream.

Sacramento is clearing the space for a pursuit in free agency, league sources tell Yahoo. Stauskas had been pursued by several teams.
YEAH BECAUSE HE WAS THE 8TH PICK IN THE DRAFT 12 MONTHS AGO!

I think there's one other guy the 76ers own the rights to, other than Saric, who is supposed to be pretty good also, but I doubt it's that dude either.
Knux gets to watch Stauskas, Noel, and Okafor develop if nothing else. A lot of teams get worse. Shit like Clarkson and Randle for example.

I'd hazard a guess Vlade Divac has never heard of the stretch provision.

play me you clown,
Shooting/spacing is king in the NBA now
trade away best shooter
sign PG who shoots 30% from the line
good jon kings

The Kings, after completing this trade, will have the salary-cap space to outbid Indiana for a free agent they've long coveted: Monta Ellis
We have it all.
By pilonv1 Go To PostShooting/spacing is king in the NBA nowBen is the better SG right now and always will be but let it go on record that I have Stauskas developing into a legit wing in this league.

When you look at all the people who have bad defense, they're usually doing nothing. James Harden looks like he wishes basketball was football and that there were different players for offense and defense.
I'm not saying if you put in effort you're going to be Tony Allen/Scottie Pippen/Bill Russell level but you sure as shit aren't going to be a liability on that side of the floor.
Even Wes can't save this horrible situation.
Rondo's a fucking primadonna, Ellis gonna want all the shots, Wes wants to get paid for multiple years after coming off an achilles injury at 29 years old.
vlade pls

If it turns into Wes Matthews or Ellis (or both) then that's more than worth it.
edit: I don't get the response to this. Stauskas was terrible and had no confidence in his shot. JT is a good defender. Landry will probably be out of the league when his contract ends.
If they get Matthews and Ellis (or Rondo) then that's a shooting upgrade. I'm not a huge Ellis fan, but he will be crazy in Karl's system.
Just heard about how Rondo is terrible for spacing, so they clear space to get shooters and it's bad move?
By etiolation Go To PostIf it turns into Wes Matthews or Ellis (or both) then that's more than worth it.
Ellis is trash and Wes has just come off a career ending injury, put the bong down for a second.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostRaptors finally recognizing DeRozan is terrible is a good sign.
They desperately need JV to learn how to play defense though.
DeRozan was part of the recruiting pitch. He's not leaving.
