If any boarders not hubbins wanna join up you have until tomorrow night to say so. I have a RLF on standby to be the 12th team if we can’t source from within. Also what day next week is good for the draft or do we wanna go the week after I'm down to play again not sure if its too late Everyone who played last year will be invited again |

Sweet. Yeah, we were at the knockout game against the Wings and the game on Sunday. The crowd/atmosphere on Sunday was wild compared to the other games we've been to.

We may only win 20 games but this current Rockets team is an absolute blast to watch and some of these young guys are super talented

Bracing myself for an underwhelming Sixers year. If I had to guess 4-5 seed and a first round exit. For all Simmons' well-documented faults, he plugs a lot of holes in the team that aren't easy to make up for in one fell swoop. If Blazers or Wizards do end up sucking early on and we do manage to swing a Lillard or Beal trade we'd go farther but I still don't think this team is a legit contender. My dream would honestly be Simmons staying and we instead Tobias for, like, CJ McCollum.

My dream would honestly be Simmons staying and we instead Tobias for, like, CJ McCollum. I feel like a Simmons for McCollum deal has probably been on the table and would make the Sixers a better team immediately, although you are getting cents on the dollar in overall value but you may have to at this point. Simmons for Lillard straight up isn't happening, although I could envision that if the Blazers want to blow it up (and if they are trading Lillard, they should), you could send Simmons to Minnesota or Sacramento for picks and young guys, and send those picks and guys plus like two of your own and Maxey to Portland for Dame. Similar deal with Beal although I feel like Dame is more likely to be on the table. But Simmons has successfully tanked his value enough that I don't even know how many picks you get for him so idk. thats a tough situation |

right, even in the unlikely best-case scenario of landing a star, Sixers would be sacrificing the already pretty mediocre depth and probably need to build on it next off season. Obviously that's my preference but scary to punt on a prime year of an injury prone centerpiece in Embiid

knicks look great, hoping they can hang in that 4-5 zone again even with more competition - kemba playing 30+ and being moderately effective and rj making another leap would change that

Would a Knicks team that played as good as they did last year even be a lock for a top-8 playoff spot in the East this year.

I would be very surprised if Knicks land higher than the six seed really? they were 4 last year, the only teams that i think got demonstrably better are the heat and the bulls, and with the sixers maybe regressing it seems pretty likely. |

Definitely Better: Nets Bucks Hawks Heat Probably Better: Celtics Sixers Wildcards: Bulls Raptors Pacers Hornets So assuming the Bulls and Pacers perform at the level expected and the Raptors can't put it together I'd say stretch 7 seed at best |

And basically assuming the Sixers get literally anything for Ben Simmons they get put in the definitely better category.

Ben may disappear in the playoffs but he's worth a few regular season wins for sure huh receiving players for Ben Simmons will make the Sixers better than just not having a player. |
