The Sixers make a colossal mistake taking Ingram or Simmons. They need GUARDS. I would trade down to 3-5 and get Murray, Dunn or Hield. Grab an extra piece or trade exception or something for a team wanting Ingram or Simmons badly.

Yeah, Phoenix has all guards. They would be a nice trade fit. Would love to see Bledsoe in Philly.

Phoenix sucks. The only team worse than the Suns is the 76ers. They can swap picks all the want but it won't really make a difference in the NBA.Azubuike24;1796171 wrote:Yeah, Phoenix has all guards. They would be a nice trade fit. Would love to see Bledsoe in Philly.

The sixers need everything except another center.

Yep. The Embiid pick looked great. Same with the Evan Turner selection. And Michael Carter-Williams. And Elfrid Payton, who never played for them. Mo Harkless.Commander of Awesome;1796187 wrote:The 50 games he'll play, wow!
I'd take 50 games of Bledsoe over any of those guys...or the value the Sixers got.

I have no idea how Draymond gets away with the things he does. So far tonight he's gotten away with taunting adams and basically bumping him with his chest (when it was 6-0!!!) And then knees a dude in the nuts and gets away with that too.

Except Rodman was hated by officials. Green gets calls from officials and they let him go crazy on them without doing anything. His antics tonight are crazy.Ironman92;1796283 wrote:An offensively skilled Rodman

Also Rodman was actually a very skilled offensive player until he went to Chicago and wasn't needed to be. He was great in Detroit.

He didn't score as much as I thought he did in Detroit after going back and looking. But I'd take nearly 10 pts 18 boards all day.Ironman92;1796296 wrote:Yeah his 1.3 assists per game and never scoring 1,000 in a season with his 58% ft skill.

He had five 30 rebound games. Only 14 have ever been recorded in history. People went nuts over a few of Andre Drummond's performances this year.
In comparison, this is even more rare than a 60-point game, which has only been done 21 times in the modern NBA. Jordan has 4 of those and Kobe has 6.
There will never be another Dennis Rodman, and that's saying something.

I expect OKC to take this series to a game 7. I think they go back to Oakland at 2-2 with a return win at OKC to make it 3-3. Game 7 anything can happen.With that said, I want the Warriors in the Finals. I'd love to play them at full strength, in playoff mode, with LBJ/KI/KL in the NBA Finals. Time for the Warriors luck streak to end.

It's no surprise if Lebron had a 3 point 4th quarter the media would eat it up but with Curry no one cares. I expect Curry to fade back into irrelevance once he gets absolutely CLOWNSTOMPED in the NBA finals. His "luck" will run out soon enough and he will be back to being a nobody in the NBA much like his predecessor Steve Nash.

Data is often refreshed from time to time. I prefer to use the newest available data to make new predictions. At the time, I expected OKC to sweep or win in 5. With the new data fresh off the press, I now see the games going to 7 with no winner predicted.Commander of Awesome;1796330 wrote:#sleeperhottaeks

IF GS gets away with the things they got away with last night, no way this goes past 6 games.
