Tobias and 180m seems a bit over on the pay scale.
There is a reason why Jerry West traded this guy.

he seems like he disappears a lot on both ends

He disappeared in the playoffs last season for the most part.

Ironically, the only guy who consistently showed up for the Sixers is the guy they let go (Butler).

I'm going to suggest that it's not a great idea to be playing so many guys because the offensive continuity just isn't there yet.  Maybe Brad's taking a long view and figuring he needs to a lot of these guys involved, but I'm hoping he tightens things up in the 2nd half.  C's should be up 15 or 16 with the defensive effort they've put in and Philly's poor shooting.

Brad plays huge rotations early on in every season. Hard to judge guys/combos/lineups without playing them in real games
I'm bitter.

That's what is funny to me. Simmons gets paid 170M and he can't shoot. Tobias getting 180M. Dang

If Danny did that contract, I would be off his bandwagon. Things like that we take for granted.

Jaylen gets 115M and people say it's a "vast overpay", but then act like Tobias Harris, Ben Simmons and countless others are actually worth the 150M+ they get. LOL

I think Philly's playing nice D.  I like this test for the young C's.    When Philly's shots start dropping might be a tough night, bit I like it so far.
true. but if the celtics shots fall, they pull away.

Let's not throw stones. Our $115m guy has as many fouls as he has points.

Amazing to see him out there. Even folks down here in Knoxville didn't think he had a great chance to even make a team,
much less be playing quality minutes on opening night on a good team.

The team should know that Timelord can also catch passes on the ground.
