he already cancelled his workout with the Sixers and said he would THRIVE in the triangle. I love his chutzpah. NY is becoming the IT place to go again. Would love to see him running the show with Melo and in 2016 we have an UNGODLY amount of cap space. We could POSSIBLY roll out D'Angelo/Melo/Durant etc...

Btw dont be surprised to see Phil come back to coach once he gets his stallions. SHIT JUST GOT REAL.

I watched Real14 do shit like this all last off-season. Look how that turned out.

Precisely.

The Knicks would have to give something up to get their hands on Russell. I don't believe he'll still be there at #4.

Seems like he would definitely prefer L.A. or N.Y.. He may end up in Philly though if draft boards hold true.

It's possible he could drop to 4.

Although highly unlikely.

June 18 article... He worked out for the 76ers more than a week ago. A source close to him says "he really loves Philly."

Russell, Winslow, Mudiay, or trade down for Stanley Johnson and I'm happy.

Going to Philly would be the best of him. That team is on the rise very soon.

And they need guards.

There's zero chance he falls past #3 unless Philly is extending the tankathon another season, which wouldn't surprise me with the latest injury to JE.

Russell worked out for the Sixers last Wednesday...

Dude was probably buzzed, so w/e lol. I guess at least he's in good spirits?

I think Philly takes Russell and tries to use its like 7 2nd rounders (over next 2 years), maybe utilize their future firsts, and upwards of $30M in cap space to get another favorable pick, if the right guy is available. Next summer, their cap space won't really matter due to the cap jump, so they won't get as much value then (in terms of collecting picks) as they could now imo.

I don't expect Philly to land any studs in FA this summer, so they should be a bottom 5 team once more. I think that would end their bottoming out though.

He actually said he'd figure out a way to work in the triangle. Not thrive.
