That's clearly what they are celebrating here.

I can see this really happening now with Kris Dunn refusing to release medical records or work out for Boston

Philly is ruining the NBA. Wish they'd just disappear- or become the Seattle Sonics.

Pointless not take the best player available, best PG is Dunn, but he is 5.-8. pick potensial. They need a star potensial SG as well.
And with this management they are signing FA's, so draft Hield, sign a PG.

If they want Dunn, they should make a trade for 5th or 6th pick, he will be there. Put to make a big trade for 3rd pick, and take Dunn :shock:
He is good, and he has DEF, but he is no 3rd pick.

Would be fun if NOH gets Okafor :D They gave Noel to now get Okafor :D

Hield might be the best player in this draft tbh. If i can get #3 for Jahs ill do it. Draft Simmons. Draft Hield. Try to sign someone like Jeff Teague and go on from there.

If the Celtics keep the #3 pick I think they have 3 targets: Buddy Hield, Jamal Murray and Dragan Bender. Kris Dunn can keep his medical documents because he's not being considered for the 3rd pick here in Boston.

Many scouts think Bender can be the best player in this draft, and is a better version of Kristaps.
Hield is a lot better than Murray, but Murray is 3 years younger, so he has time to make up the difference.
Hard choice for BOS, in a way yeah, if PHI is offering, why not get a player, you already know how he handles NBA life. (Likes to fight in Boston :lol: ).

Hate to burst Boston's bubble, but Okafor isn't going anywhere. The reports say Boston is going after Okafor, not that Philly is trying to move him right now. And Philly isn't going to trade him until they see if Embiid can get healthy.

Nerlens Noel is a much bigger candidate to get traded at some point this offseason.

Correction, Hinkie exploited the NBA, which made the league look bad. The league wanted him out to save face, so they approached the organization and offered the first pick guaranteed in exchange of firing Hinkie and replacing him with Coangelo.

How else would Dikembe Mutumbo know the Sixers got the first pick ~3 hours before the lottery was "drawn"?

Classic "Don't hate the player, hate the game." This is a wake up call to the NBA, it's the league's fault if they don't put something in place. Firing one guy is not going to change anything.

I say bring on league relegation into the D-League for tankers.

When Philly drafts Simmons, they will have a massive log jam in the front court with not a single player that can stretch the floor at those positions. They will need to move Okafor or Noel, though I would take Embiid in BOS in a second.

Don't know who is dummer you or Dikembe Mutombo. :lol:
Dikembe Mutombo isn't even on PHI payroll :roll:
I hope this is a wake up call for you, don't follow NBA ;)
NBA need no wake up call :D
