    I tell you what, you put The Brow out there with those shooters (obviously some will be sent back) but that’s just a nightmare for the league. Trades are so tough to actually pull off. Especially involving superstars. Seems like an off-season thing to me if it were to happen.

    Sign of the times?

    I clicked on a link to a Reddit thread the other day. First time on Reddit. A guy asked a question about whether something was going to be backwards compatible between Xbox 360 and Xbox One. He was summarily attacked like a pack of hyenas on an injured gazelle. That will be my last time on Reddit.

    :cheers:

    Did you say the same thing about Simmons last year and Embiid the year before?

    Philly has a recent history of being very patient with young players with injuries. They don't panic. They don't rush them back. They don't trade them. They wait for them to heal and reap the rewards.

    Not saying Fultz will be a superstar, but it's a little early to be calling him a bust.

    This Clippers Rockets game is big. Blazers are tied with Denver and Clippers for 7th or is it 9th?

    I sometimes wonder how much worse off we are than the Clippers. They have a few guys that are worth something and can attract free agents. In three years will they be better off than us?

    I hate Blake. But that slam was deserved.

    Did we really just drop from 7th to 9th without playing a game? Damn tie-breakers.

    That’s what happens when you lose to good teams most of the time

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    The Warriors have won 13 road games in a row. That seems pretty ridiculous. They might be for real.
