I'm fine with Fultz coming off the bench to start. TJ and Bayless can run with the first unit. Gives Fultz less pressure and let's him handle the ball more with second unit.

If he doesn't start to begin the season, how on God's earth will they win the Finals?

Still, it’s worth noting that since 2003, the only number one overall NBA draft picks who were healthy enough to play who did not open their rookie seasons as starters were Anthony Bennett and Andrea Bargnani.

It's time to move on.

What can the Sixers get for Markell Fultz' expiring contract?

Top 59 protected second round pick. Maybe.

Im fine with Fultz not starting

I got a feeling he's hurt anyway. Fultz gonna have to learn to play with Simmons, and with his shot suddenly changing for no reason, hes gonna have to learn to shoot.

 

[Bread]

Can’t believe Danny was able to get value for the Fultz pick.

 

[LyleLanley]

Morris is out for the first week with knee soreness. Looks like Tatum will start in his place.

Wasn't the rumor he was changing the shot due to shoulder issues? Might even have been reported or I am misremembering things.

Yeah he's been saying that. I'd rather him not play personally, but if he can drive, pass and defend, he should be playing the backup ballhandler

So, Drummond hit 16/20 on the FT line in preseason games. What do you guys think? Fools gold? Will it drop to 35% when the regular season starts? Or did he fix his shooting and he'll hit 50% or above this season?

It will drop back down to around 35%. He has been working on his free throws for years without any success I don't see that changing now. I just want him to play with intensity for the course of the season.

I'm old enough to remember when we thought we might have a new season OT by now.

 

[jbug617]

Tatum is going to start at 4 till Morris is ready.

I was told by a little birdie that it couldn't be posted until tomm morning, so..... I'll imagine it being posted then; before you guys even wake up!

It's always morning in America.

It's actually morning in Europe.

isn't he like 120 lbs?

True enough, but your arguement will be fruitless.

If Xia is on and approves, it is already saved and ready to go, so I can cut and paste it from my phone and post it up..


You guys are gonna hate it anyway, lol

 

[LyleLanley]

Tatum is starting while Fultz rides the bench. The process was a mistake.

Lmao, Danny wins again!

He’s no Brandon Ingram

Thank God.

Only thing is it seems like he's changed his form now. Hopefully it can improve. If they can stop hack-a-dre Piston's could win more games easily, especially if he plays with intensity like you said.

They need Dre to play at the end of games especially since since he is the francise player. I think his overall game will be dramatically improved this season.

When I was younger I liked that Lakers games were on late, now it is a real pain in the ass to watch them during the week.

 

[LegendofDragoonLives]

Gotta say Embiid talks way too much shit for a dude that plays in the NBA as much as I do for 80% every season.

His problem isn't even that he's shoots like a fucking scrub on the FT line. It's that he's playing like shit. Him and cancer RJ are a monumental negative when they're both on the court, and a big negative when only one is still. Without them, they're second to GSW in +/-. Dude needs to focus on intensity and defense. If he were to transform into a defensive machine, it would make up for a lot of his shortcomings.

RJ should have been traded, shit player with shit style with shit attitude. He's like if Westbrook had none of the athleticism and skill with all his drawbacks.

So how many points do you guys think the Celtics will beat the Cavs by?
