Jerry Zgoda @jerryzgoda Sixers probably aiming to get to 3 to get Dunn but also have been doing their due diligence on Rubio for months.

aBagorn posted:Again, call me loving stupid but I think Noel and Embiid could coexist on the floor at least in some capacity without being the dumpster fire Noel/Okafor was (and the disaster that I think Okafor/Embiid would be). I would agree, but keep in mind that Philly doesn't want to be good yet, and a rookie backcourt player is going to be a lot worse than Noel. Also they certainly don't want to use up their cap space next summer when they could instead keep 2 centers on rookie deals.

It seems to me the Celtics have no leverage, so I dunno why the Sixers are bidding against themselves. Can't they get a guard at 4-6 by giving up a smaller package? Or only the Celtics really covet Okafor/Noel

Bryan Colangelo wants nothing more than to be good. If he wins 25-30 games next year weirdos everywhere will talk about how great he is and he'll probably be voted executive of the year. Plus, the incentive to tank isn't as great we still have the LAL pick and the Sacramento swap.

Redgrendel2001 posted:Bodner confirmed today that Noel's looming contract extension is considered by management to be an incentive to trade him, but that it makes him a little harder to move. Do the Sixer just not want to pay Noel or do they just want him gone asap? Who the gently caress are the Sixers giving money to that a Noel contract extension is backbreaking? Hashtag Banterzone posted:I would agree, but keep in mind that Philly doesn't want to be good yet, and a rookie backcourt player is going to be a lot worse than Noel. The sixers could give every player in the league a max contract and still have enough cap space for whatever they want to do. They aint paying poo poo.

Yeah I don't get the "Noel contract is a problem" thing, they have no players and aren't paying anyone anything short of whatever contracts they ate for other teams I want a PG but don't want them to trade Noel though

If they were content to get Hield or some other lower ceiling guard then sure they could go with a smaller bid

The thing I'm most interested about in Sabonis is whether he ends up better than his surrogate brother Donatas Motiejunas, who pulls off the Sabonis hook shot pretty well but doesn't really do anything else he did.

I don't really think Zhou Qi was going to drop into the second round anyway, unless there is truth behind the rumor his age is a lie. ALso on the Woj podcast the guest said that at least one of the European guys was going to pay his own buyout so the scenario IcePhoenix proposed is realistic.

Nets trade Thad Young for Pacers 20th overall pick, and presumably blow it like all other moves they have made in the past 5 years Oh wait its no longer Billy King running them into the ground and losing the 3rd overall pick for rentals of KG and Paul Pierce ages ago Sicke fucked around with this message at 20:09 on Jun 23, 2016 |

God, the Nets still don't have their first round pick for the next two years Celtics right to swap 2017 Celtics get the pick outright 2018 Man, 4 unprotected first round picks for the corpses of KG and Pierce

The age rumors come up for pretty much every African basketball player and it tends to be hard to prove without a medical examination. It could be a smokescreen or it could be legit but I wouldn't put too much stock into a bunch of scouts speculating until someone's willing to attach some evidence or at least put their name out there
