Sixers are now Maxey's team. I wish we could have traded for him.

Maxey was amazing. Knicks were smelling the 2nd round then choked it.

They should blow the whole thing up. Zion is unprofessional about his health. Ingram is injury prone. McCollum is paid too much for what you get.

I think for the 20, 4 and 4 on good percentages, CJ isn’t that bad. I’d be worried he’ll sharp decline. I’d say he’s not close to the problem.

It’s Zion and Ingram. 100%

Pacers are not serious people. How are they down 15 against the Bucks with Giannis and Lillard sitting out?

A real sense of urgency to get better? 100 bucks say they get worse by shedding salary. CJ, maybe Ingram. They won't be as good next year. Unless Murphy and Daniels take some significant steps forward.

New Orleans does not want to pay the tax. I could see them using picks to dump CJ. Let’s take that deal, only two seasons left on it. They’ll trade Ingram to make room for Trey Murphy in the starting lineup.

I get the same feeling watching the Cavs and Magic. These teams suck.

Portis owned Siakam this game.

Could make it to the ECF too if the Pacers win or if the Bucks can’t get healthy. Easy path to the ECF.

Ingram + the young guys like Murphy, Jones are probably safe.

If Ingram declines an extension, I think he is moved.

Ingram to Atlanta
Okongwu and Murray to NO?

I suggested the same. I'll gladly swallow the 64M remaining as long as we are compensated nicely for it. He's a great leader, fills a need, and can still play. The only issue is he is paid 2x what he's worth.

Pels owner said she will pay the tax if they need to, but all their fans know she's lying.

Honestly speaking, Ingram for Trae Young might end up working for both teams

So do I, but he was never offered.

And, he does make mistakes. That was a stupid shot to take with 8 seconds left on the clock/game.

Yeah, that is a possibility too.

I think NO would have interest in Okongwu. They need a stretch big next to Zion.

Trae/OO for BI/Jones? But there would need to be more salary going out for NO.

Thibs doing some miracles/doing what great coaches do with the 3 Wildcats , OG, Hartenstein, McBride and Robinson..Most Raps fan would not realize that IQ/RJ/Scottie/Yak/Gary/Gradey/Ochai/KO are MORE talented than that bunch...but Talent is 'rarely' everything .

Game 5 is the reason why you can’t pay someone like Siakam 45-50 million a year. Great player, even better story. But he is not a A level player. He’s like a really good B+ level player.

To be fair, Hali wasn't much better but no one would hesitate giving him a max.
