I dont like the way the 6ers slipped in the 2nd half of the season. They desperately lack scoring punch and F'ed up not making a trade before the deadline. Bulls for the sweep!

Bulls will probably sweep these boys. Philly can't score the rock consistently and they've been slumping the entire 2nd half. Doug Collins was lucky to get his boys in the playoffs, even after getting off to a fast start. Their season ends in 4

Definitely agree that they messed up at the trade deadline. I'm not sure who decided that this team was fine the way it is constructed, but I dont get it. Even after lucking out when Hawes turned into a decent starting center, they still have barely any front court depth. Philly is overflowing with good swingmen, lack a true PG yet they still wont make a trade. I think their hot start this year gave them too much confidence in the roster.

I take back what I said about Thibs taking him out earlier. It's not his fault...Rose just plays wild and it was eventually going to catch up to him. He was already hurt and this shortened season didn't give him time to heal up. His joints and tendons probably take more heat than any other players because of the way he plays.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
