Saric already better than Smart and has a higher ceiling. What pick was he by Philly?

No, he isn't. He's having a hot game, but Smart is far superior on D, and they're both below average on O.

He was #12 overall


I would take Saric in a heart beat over Smart. Much higher ceiling and already has better skills. Plus he has height.

You need to watch more Philly games if you think Saric is actually more thrilled than Smart. He hasn't had many games like this one
I'm bitter.

Philly have clearly taken a step.

Rodriguez is a professional, and Saric is clearly seriously skilled.

Good for our Brooklyn pick.

Smart is the world's smallest Power Forward. With the dribbling and passing skills of a Point Guard.
My biases, in order of fervor:
Pro:
Smart, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Kemba, Grant Williams, Sleepy Williams, Edwards!

Anti:
Kanter, Semi, Theis, Poierier

I think for this system Saric is a better fit. Call me crazy, but it's true

Another over reaction to a player who has a good game against us but is having a below average season.
This is his first season n the NBA right? You don't see his skills for a player his size?

He's played professionally for years over in Europe... He's not getting any better - this is what you get with him.

Celtics have not really impressed so far this season, but Chicago are down 19 to the Mavs, Atlanta might be a lottery team and the Hornets just lost to Minnesota. It could be worse I guess.

How old is Saric?

Anyone still think the Sixers suck? They almost beat us without Embiid, Simmons and Noel tonight. With Embiid and Simmons they would have crushed us.

What's new. Bradley's effect on games is almost exclusively in the first half and disappears in the 4th. It's because he can't make plays with the ball and pull ups won't do it in the 4th

Eh.  He made a bunch of important buckets earlier in the half, is 9 for 16, and leads everyone else on the team in rebounds by far with 9.
How many points he have in the 4th? It was the same in Detriot besides some garbage time shots

He's like a worse shooting version of Mirotic

He's 22 in his first year in the NBA. He definitely is going to get better. The only question is how much.
