Anyone Check out the 6ers blog lately?

This is not shocking news.

Team forums are often heavily populated with homers who overrate the team's position/players and underrate every other team's position/players.  It's not as if this place is any different.

100%  But then you have those of us who try and bring reality to different posts every once in a while and get a mob with torches and pitchforks name calling and stating how ignorant I am.  That's always fun. Not that I'm complaining.  I'll take the track record I've established (also not saying I'm the only one like that around here at all.  Just that those that tend to be objective and realistic when it comes to our team are firmly in the minority)

So the 76ers are hoping to take Simmons and Dunn. Neither of whom can shoot. Adding them to Nerlens Noel who has no offense at all, Joel Embiid who might not actually be able to play basketball, and I guess Saric who apparently isn't really all that good after all.

Knowing that, I would trade the #3 and #16 for Okafor and the 76ers unprotected pick next year. They're gonna suck again for sure. I don't even like Okafor, but take away their best offensive player and how are they going to score?

Celtics fans (and, reportedly, possibly the Celtics as well) want to take a poor shooting point guard to go along with their other poor shooting guards and wing players.  How is that really any different?

Right.

You are on a roll. I'll be back later to TP you again.
