I was referring to your point that you don't do the Love trade without Lebron being locked up

No question. The advantage, though, is you show LeBron you're not just going to stick him with 4 rookies. Big risk, yes. Possible huge reward.

we still wouldn't be a better option than Chicago or Houston though

Might eventually lead to a reverse of Sprewell-Carlesimo.

Ford taking Zach Lavine at 11 in his fake draft last night is throwing shade on all his opinions for me

On the Ben franklin fake logo thing- guy is a know. Sex fiend and pervert. Don't think a basketball team should be branding themselves with that.

Ben Franklin was a fucking pimp. Guy starts out as a runaway from Boston, because Boston has always sucked.
He was a tycoon, media mogul, statesmen, writer, rebel, athlete - the guy almost stayed on in London as a young printer and founded a swimming school, there were guys who wanted to bankroll him. He was a scientist - inventing the lightning rod, franklin stove, mapped the Gulf stream - saving weeks on the average transatlantic crossing just because he was curious.
He practiced all sorts of odd diets and exercise regimens long before it ever occurred to others. He was all about self improvement.
He founded the whole concept of a Free Library for the public. They used to be subscription only because books were expensive. The Library in Philly is still called the Free Library. He founded Fire departments. He was the first guy in charge of the postal system.
The guy was a diplomat. He almost singlehandedly kept the French on our side.
He fucked mad bitches.
He would make the rich men, politicians and scientists of today look like pussies.
He was one of the all around most famous, important, influential people of his lifetime. His autobiography is considered the first self help book by many. Kafka, who never made it to America, said reading it gave him the impression that all americas were optimistic forward thinkers.
Motherfucker went to England, thinking that all men are reasonable and he wanted to plead his case to parliament. The House of Commons at the time made the current Tea Party look tame. They tore him a new one for hours in the Cockpit. He stood there like a Buddha and kept a poker face while mentally planing how to start the Rebellion successfully.. The smarter parliamentarians knew they fucked up big time pissing off one of the most influential men on earth at the time. Franklin said he arrived in London that time a Briton and left an American.
I love my country. I love my hometown. I love Dr J and Iverson and Barkley and Mo Cheeks and Joe Frazier on and on. Philly is an awesome town.
But no one is more Philly than Ben Franklin.

By Eliot Shorr-Parks/NJ.com :
Although it is possible the Sixers could move Exum to shooting guard, he dominated the ball during his time in Australia, and asking him to change his game wouldn't seem like a wise idea after investing such a high pick in him. Exum also struggles shooting the ball, a pretty big requirement for any player who is going to be the two-guard for the Sixers.


Good thing we traded away evan turner so that we could draft….evan turner?
I would rather see you lose than win myself

Lavine is probably the most polarizing guy in the draft. Some people think he's going to be a star and others think he's Joe Alexander.

Evan Turner is not an NBA athlete. Exum is one of the most athletic guys in the draft.

I don't think Exum is explosive by any means. He's very quick though

Exum will be the same age at the end of his rookie deal as turner was when he made his pro debut.
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.
