Yeah I think that’s fair. We got the best guy moved at the deadline. Sure Siakam and OG were better but they were gone a month ago. And I’m glad we got neither of them.

No one can think Morey is a good GM anymore right? Or maybe he just doesn’t care now?
Just an embarrassing performance and the usual nonsense about next year.

If we win, does pat bev get a ring?

I don’t mind that we traded Springer immediately following him locking up Steph Curry 1on1 for 3 quarters and giving Luka fits 1on1
I do mind that he only got a single 2nd rd pick for him immediately following those performances 😩

He never should have drafter Springer in the first places. Was a dumbass pick from the beginning.

I really just didn’t like that we gave players to Boston and Milwaukee of all teams.

Your focus was to save your glutton money. End of story.

We all talk shit but I did appreciate Morey’s patience in this trade. Leaving Indy a little desperate. The Sixers definitely won this trade.

If we kept Beverly and got hield we would be a better team. Simple as that
