Think Philly took a step back this offseason so far..lost Bellinelli and Ersan..added no one except draft players
Don't think losing Belli and Ersan, who were post trade deadline pickups, is much of a loss. They picked up Wilson Chandler via trade.
You can tell you're definitely a Sixers fan with this one!
The Sixers went 20-3 with both Ilyasova and Belinelli and were 32-27 prior to their arrival. They provided spacing and high IQ play, things that will be heavily missed.
Chandler isn't the best fit on that team. As his athletic ability has waned, his best position now is small ball 4, a position that Simmons and Saric are also best suited for. In addition, his ability to stretch the floor isn't that good. His last 4 seasons he's shot the following from 3:
34.8
34.2
33.7
35.8
Their spacing is definitely going to take a huge hit!
