Default 2023-24 Philadelphia 76ers Season Thread

We signed Mo Bamba! And Danny Green!!



....I got nothin'. Still got the EMVPbiid though.

Prob just watch Jimmy's press conferences on repeat until the playoffs start.

Wake me when Harden's gone/first round of playoffs is half-over. 76ers v Bucks to start the year should be fun though.

James Harden showed up. And practiced like....a normal teammate! [I can't believe it either]

Springer stuffs Tatum at the rim, he's gonna be a great defender. Offense got a ways to go though.

Our long national nightmare is OVER! Bye-bye Harden!

Morey fleeced the Clippers, 4 useful players on expiring deals, 2 first round picks incl an unprotected 2028 first [when LAC will be in total rebuild mode], a pick swap, and 2 2nds for a guy who didn't even want to be here.

Likely only the first domino, Daryl will be a near-certitude to get the next unhappy superstar who wants to be on a good team that can win it all with himself added to Embiid and Maxey and Tobias. Nobody thought Dame would be leaving POR. Every year it's somebody.

We got the tradable contracts, the picks, and the max cap slots.

LET'S GO SIXERS!

"emvpiid" and the sixers will choke by the 2nd round as usual, and of course he's typically a health concern, it's almost laughable to speak of him as especially valuable in that context, compared to the likes of, say, Jokic, a winner w/o availability problems etc.

MVP, Maxey, Tobias, Oubre, Melton, Reed, Batum, RoCo, Springer, Morris, KJ, Furkan --- it's not a bad roster at all. Even though it is likely one more trade to come.

I wonder what it will take for the Sixers to trade for DeMar and AC

Good question not sure that's the level of star they're hoping becomes available but would definitely help.

I think they might be better suited following Denver's model. A franchise player with a bunch of borderline All-Stars/above average rotation players (Playoff Murray being an exception).

Maxey, DeRozan, Caruso would be a good start. See if RoCo still has it and it's another one. Hope that Oubre keeps it up or Melton plays better and trade/sign another good big and that's your rotation.

Yeah just not sure trading Tobias for those two works without having the good P4 also. But it might! Or did you just forget Tobias?

Embiid with 29 in a quarter. Dropped 48 so far likely ending there.

Maxey - Embiid pnr looking really smooth so far this year… big test on Wednesday

Oh no, I'm assuming Tobias gets traded for them. Pretty much only way to make salaries work.

Well that's not really true; the 4 salaries we just took in matched to Harden's $36m or more. And you only have to be within 20%.

But agreed it's easier to trade one Tobias for sure!

too bad 29 in a quarter is fool's gold coming from a guy with a career playoff BPM of ~3

bubble alpaca has generated more playoff production

Say MIN wants to get off the 4yr $225m KAT contract that starts next year, due to massive salary cap tax implications, say 76ers trade Tobias [expiring] for him at the deadline and what picks do you think it would take? 2 firsts and the pick swap?

This is assuming MIN is not one of the top West teams this year, of course.
