http://scores.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=400489945 Sixer fans, I feel with you. I survived the 12-70 season with the Nets, I am sure you will get over this. You guys were in tank mode at least. When we went 12-70 there was no talk of tanking we were just that bad.
Philly could definitely use the first pick and snag Embid who just declared yesterday. Any NBA fan who sees what happening in Philly as almost a tragedy because Philly is just one of those organizations that has such a rich tradition. Hell...they were my team when I lived in KC. Wilt, Cunningham, Greer, Jackson, Walker...what a team! What's going on now is like constipation....it will pass.
plus he plays the same position as noel. believe me not many here feel bad. we understand this is what a team has to do in the nba to get better and hinkey has a plan not only for the draft but the next couple of upcoming free agency crops.
I couldnt agree more. He's raw at best, but the improvements in his game when he literally started at ground zero were amazing. As long as the Sixers understand what they've would get and groom him, Embid could be their post man, and a darn good one, for years to come. So very few good 7 footers in the NCAA now and the foreseeable future and also in FA.
They're still 1st runner-up in the horrid record race behind Milwaukee. The Bucks stinkage has been a quiet event somewhat akin to rotting meat.
