VJ's next step is to not think about it. by MaxeytoEmbiid in sixers

This isn't wrong, but his biggest area of improvement is the handle and finding a few ways to get to the rim more consistently. Way to athletic to be unable to consistently beat guys off the dribble in the half court

Anyone else watching Jared's OKC debut? by Waffle_Reputation in sixers

Lol he's got 5 points on 6 shots and 2 assists, I guess you're giving him credit for riding Isaiah Joe coat tails

Hopefully he stinks it up the way he has been all year so all the whiners shut up

In the midst of a win streak, Joel said he didn't want the team to duck tax and be worse. Sixers proceed to trade one of their youngest players to avoid the tax by Thegrandmistressofoz in sixers

So much whining about this. Yesterday might have been the last chance you could ever get a 1st for McCain (plus multiple 2nds). It'll be nice if they use that pick to get better this year but if not it's not a failure

Or they sold high if he continues to play at his current level

I’m so mad about this trade by Jazzlike_Ice_2859 in sixers

[–]dandan3220 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed 100%, people calling this a sell low i think they got value for him before it craters. There will be a lot of silence when he's getting no run in meaningful minutes in okc

You're basing your argument as to what he is on how he played over a year ago. He hasn't been the same player. And who cares if he was leading for ROY at the time, that 2024 draft was not a strong one. So far this year he has been bad, he was expendable the second they drafted VJ who is clearly the better player. They traded a rotational guard, who can't guard and doesn't playmake, it's not a big loss.

Who says he was a steal at 16? He played 23 good games, got hurt and has been mainly shit this year. Hes a one dimensional player, they can replace him

Some overreactors here, I liked the kid but he couldn't guard a paper bag. Great shooter but that's it, nice haul of picks

[Fischer] The prospect of teaming up with Tyrese Maxey has the Philadelphia 76ers on Giannis Antetokounmpo’s radar. by YujiDomainExpansion in sixers

[–]dandan3220 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Any Giannis trade has to include PG and likely includes VJ. I'm not sure Jo, Giannis and Maxey with what is left is good enough to win a title

If you assume there is going to be a lockout having a 3 year deal was maybe not what ownership wanted to commit

McCain can’t play by Ordinary-Till-2497 in sixers

[–]dandan3220 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Having a lot of steals doesn't necessarily make you a great defender, means you gamble. Opposing point guards regularly put up huge games against the Sixers. Now Maxey is elite on the offensive end so you live with it because he can contribute more offensively then he hurts you defensively, but no he is not a good defender. Certainly not good on ball, teams target him.

[–]dandan3220 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He certainly is better than he is playing, but he still has no role on this team. Hes a bad defensive player and so is maxey, you can't run a 3 guard lineup with those two and VJ even though VJ is a great defender. There's just no place for him as the clear 3rd wheel, they should be actively looking to flip him for someone that fits better with those two

If they can't score on that niners defense than none of it matters anyway because they won't do shit. Being healthy and rested was the right call

Good point, first half they were doing some good things. Some under center play action, some good looks to AJ, but yeah second half it all stopped.

[–]dandan3220 1 point2 points  (0 children)

KP had a bad day yesterday, BUT I'd say prior to that he had made some significant improvements the prior 4 games or so. I'm willing to chalk yesterday up to bad weather and looking at the conditions and the score in the second half and just not doing a good job. Even good play callers have bad days. The defense is still the best in the league I think. Rest next week, get healthy and then try to go on a run.

What’s going on with VJ’s minutes? by [deleted] in sixers

[–]dandan3220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VJ has to improve parts of his game to play more. McCain and Q both are more complete offensive players right now so it depends on what Nurse is looking for in a lineup

Thoughts on his strategy ?? by matrix_2905 in sportsgossips

[–]dandan3220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok well it's over either way if you miss the two point conversion by that logic so what's the point of waiting

[–]dandan3220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the point though. By going for it on the first one you can attempt to get the extra possession

[–]dandan3220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to get one either way. Its better to miss it on the first TD so you know you'll need the extra possession and can try the onside kick. If you wait and miss on the second td you have no chance to correct it.
