harley 61 Report post Posted March 6, 2019 Part of me wants that lotto pick now anyway I’m done with playoff push, as MP said this team is just a rental now, it’s happening in two years from now with Gordon, Fultz, Bamba, Isaac and draft pick. That’s a scary young core. Vooch will walk I reckon. We’ll be better for it in long run. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting to the playoffs would be a significant step for these guys. Allowing ourselves to become terrible again to "develop" our young players will result in a fiasco. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted March 6, 2019 Philly has a pretty nasty team at this point. Still shocked at how bad Vooch played on both ends of the court. And then we have JJ and Tobias, who did whatever they wanted last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magicpassion 4 Report post Posted March 6, 2019 If we put things in perspective then we lost to probably at this point the most stacked team in the east on their court and it wasn’t a blow out; not to mention Vuch’s worst game. Granted they were missing Embiid but we were missing TRoss and Bamba. We are a better team this year and playing meaningful games in March which was our goal.

It made sense to rest Ross for that one in order to get him healthy for this very important 7 game stretch where we need to go 4-3 at worst. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anything else and this team isn’t serious about anything other than proving how much they shouldn’t be a playoff team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anything else and this team isn’t serious about anything other than proving how much they shouldn’t be a playoff team. I'm just looking at it based on reasonable ways to get to 39 wins. Not really attaching any deeper meaning to things. Going 4-3 then finishing the season going 5-3 with something like beating Miami, Indiana, New York, Atlanta, Charlotte is a feasible way to get to 39 wins. Though yeah, if we want to be a playoff team there's no reason we shouldn't go 5-2 or 6-1 over this stretch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
