When you’re a month away from the draft I wouldn’t read too much into anything but the Sixers probably aren’t showing their cards until the week of the draft when trades get more realistic

Which way r u leaning right now Trill?

trillbrodude.bsky.social•4 days ago

VJ or Kon and if they decide to go wild card Tre Johnson is my guy. If they pick ace I’ll talk myself into it but I do think the red flags are fairly massive with him. I don’t care about fit. Not enough healthy / available talent for me to care about that.

Tre Johnson no matter what. I’d take him 2, and I’d have to wipe away tears as I passed on him at 1…

avi-wa.bsky.social•4 days ago

i'm VJ or Kon too. been talking myself more into VJ recently.

i keep trying to find an optimistic case for ace to believe in, but can't get there

I said this a few months ago but I’d rather be the second Ace team than the first. He feels like the classic second contract / team guy. Once it’s obvious his handle / self creation / decision making / passing isn’t good enough to be a NBA star and he becomes more of a role player.

trillbrodude.bsky.social•4 days ago

Similar concerns about Kon (athleticism) and VJ (handle / pull up shooting) but I think they can fit different roles while those things iron themselves out. Ace and his team will want him to be a star out the gate and it could be ugly.

Rafael Barlowe said he’d take Tre #3. It’s not slop but first draft guy I’ve heard say that.

He knows ball I fear

tk76.bsky.social•4 days ago

But does Daryl?

tk76.bsky.social•4 days ago

They have VJ falling to 8.

If that happens I hope the Sixers are trading back with the Nets to 8 to draft him.

Slop doctor,

McCain or # 3 & PG for Sabonis & Monk?

Or Maxey and 2 future 1sts for Trae Young?

trillbrodude.bsky.social•4 days ago

Im good on trade one but I get the idea. I would rather have Maxey over Trae young straight up.

common-nocturne.bsky.social•4 days ago

Fair. I wouldn’t do either. was thinking of 2 unpopular trades one if Embiid is completely compromised and you want to stay competitive, and win now move if he’s healthy.

trillbrodude.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yeah if Embiid’s done I think spending any more assets on the current team is a waste. If you’re trading either do it for a pick haul / prospects & try to rebuild after next season when you have heavy protections on your first & all of your other picks. You can’t survive a dead Supermax on the books

I think it’d be an incredibly funny bit if after Hinkie continuously drafted bigs in the 1st, Morey came in and continuously drafts guards in the 1st.

Maybe if everything we did before turned out wrong...
