We can’t really force PTO to go back to Chik Fil A.

They gave me a free sandwich card at the Spurs game I went to last month. Threw that shit directly into the garbage.

some actual thoughts besides 'who to get'

-simmons mid range jumper and occasional 3. doesn't have to be a ton. they say he already takes these in practice. not sure what kept him from attempting anything all season long. i'm pretty sure outside of buzzer heaves, he didn't attempt any threes, and i think the shots from 12+ from the rim may have been single digits? not sure if he wants to bring it along slowly and only do one of catch and shoot, pullup off the dribble, or just say f it and do it all? his playoff free throw shooting was a bit reassuring to me.

-fultz. figure something out here. i'm not sure where to start. can he play with ben? can he play at all?

-developing plays. i feel like this season was a lot of gelling but still a ways to go. it shouldn't be difficult for ben to get the ball to jo in a comfortable position with a high likelyhood of scoring frequently. it shouldn't be difficult for a few of the regulars to get 2 man games and pic and rolls working. jo needs to really work on recognizing the double and making quick decisions down low when it happens.

i'm tired.
Not everything I think is something I should say.

I'm as frustrated with Fultz as the next guy but it would be idiotic to write him off

Joel finishes his first season healthy since he was 18.

Give him a full offseason to get in shape. I expect an MVP caliber year next year.
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

I'd like to keep Ersan. He's a great bench player for us.

@KNegandhiESPN
This Sixers team has the feel of the 2007 Phillies. Surprised a few people. Ton of young talent ends playoff drought. First postseason experience for the franchise stars. Disappointing playoff outcome vs the Rockies. Then 2008 happened.


Here's hoping kevin

We were the 5th team left standing in the NBA this season. They went on an incredible run to end it. It was a fun year, probably the most fun I've had watching basketball in a decade or more. Now go get LeBron.

I'm not mad just disappointed.
5 games doesn't erase the previous 87 but
Simmons was a huge letdown
Brett wasn't great
We crumbled down the stretch
Boston has a bunch of young kids and they played fine, now they get Conf Finals experience
Oh and Boston didn't have 2 all NBA players in this series
Its disappointing
