These two are just about to figure shit out and go on a tear. Embiid needs to change his attitude and accept this new core. Maxey and Oubre can flat out punish you in so many ways. If we can can a Swiss Arrmy post defender (level up Tucker) like Mobley this team can be back at elite status. Harden putting smoke on the new process

Oubre sucks. Too bad at team basketball to have a positive impact in the playoffs. This dude just does not pass the ball whatsoever, and he isn't nearly a good enough scorer to have a positive impact while ignoring the other 4 guys on the court.

We've had that experience with Tobias. Oubre however has a bigger bag and infuses a ton of positivity. Something to uplift us through the Harden drama

wtf? Did Oubre learn to do something other than "Shoot lazy midrange J that no one respects" off the dribble?

Oubre used to have some of the most brain dead drives I've ever seen in the league. As long as he sticks to open 3s and straight line drives he should be ok. Anything more than that can be trouble.

I say send him to Houston and get Jabari Smith, Van Vleet, and picks.

Houston likes Sengun, Van Vleet fills contract, and Jabari can develop under Embiid.

"Nothing against James," Udoka told ESPN, "but Fred is just a better fit. I coached James in Brooklyn. He's one of the smartest players I've ever been around. The words 'Ime doesn't want James' never came out of my mouth. It was, 'Let's look at the best fit.' If we want Jalen and the young guys to take the next steps, we need them to have the ball. As for me saying I don't want James, that was never the case. It was about fit."

Morey is monitoring the Chicago situation closely, while praying they and the Clippers keep losing. Bulls might want what the Clippers are offering for Harden.

Tell me if you think this line-up is a contender or is still a step behind the real contenders (Boston, Milwaukee, Denver, Phoenix)

Starters

5- Embiid
4- Harris
3- Derozan
2- Melton
1- Maxey

Bench

Oubre
Reed
Tucker
Beverly

Sorry man. I don't think my post made it clear, but I assume the Bulls look to blow it up and get draft picks plus Mann from the Clippers, Clippers get Harden and Sixers get Derozan in a three team deal.

Possibly need some expirings in the mix, and the Bulls can flip Mann for more picks.

All assuming the Bulls blow it up or try to get younger and the Clippers get more desperate watching their season slip away.

They offered Mann, Norman Powell, and pick and it was turned down

Yeah but if the start out 2-8 is Lawrence Frank still going to value him like an MVP candidate when Uncle Dennis comes knocking?

The longer the season goes on Morey gets more power in the negotiation, not less, especially if the Clippers don't live up to their own expectations.

Mann is injured also. Harden is on the bench right now and is set to play next game against Toronto. If he plays well the Clippers need to be mindful of what happened to the Heat in the Dame situation, if they are not already. Pluss if the Bulls want in, maybe the get desperate enough they don't even need Mann in a deal.

He brings that good energy. He allows Maxey to be Maxey and gets that high tempo game going.

I'd like us to go get Desmond Bane. He'd suit the culture here

Oubre been a surprise. Hopefully it lasts. Not holding my breath at all. Maxey is the truth and if he can find ways to get to the charity stripe? Even better. I’m talking 6-7 Fta per game. Probably the best Sixers find in a very long time. I can’t think offhand if someone as good in last drafts.


Is Kenyon Jr any good potential wise?

I foresee Oubre having another great game against the Wizards on Monday making everyone finally believe he is for real and then on Wednesday against Celtics have a stinker and shoot them out the game in another embarrassing loss.




Is Kenyon Jr any good potential wise?

He was promising in Houston, but they drafted better rookies that played similar roles hence why he found his way to LA. The Clippers moved him on pretty quick so it's tough to say how much better he will be or if Nurse will put him in the rotation. I think Morey may even flip him again.

He's a solid bench player. Nothing more, nothing less. Good enough piece to round out the end of a rotation

He's Athletic. Defensive depth. Or a key piece to trade for another 3D. A good package piece.

Last season with the Hornets Oubre attempted 7 3s per game shooting 32%. I think that is more relevant to the discussion.

Depends what you are asking.

Potential to break out? No. He is not going to break out as a defensive ace or find an outside shot this season.

Potential to be a useful player? Yeah. I look at this like the Lakers picking up Rui last year. KJ does not have to break out to add value to the 76ers. He adds another dimension with his finishing that gives Nurse options by playing matchups or the hot hand.
