Sixers Forum / Re: Rising Suns vs Sixers
« on: January 20, 2026, 06:15:01 pm »
What else is new? EMBIID is out again with ankle injury & PG is questionable. Tonight, the Sixers are looking at Mr. Drummond & Bona playing the center position. Hopefully the Sixers can pull off a victory considering this is game 5 of 6 for the Suns. The Suns are running on fumes & the Sixers should take a vantage of this. I'm still waiting for VJ to find his shot again like Sixers Fans. Kelly finally found his shot hopefully he stays on point. The bench is still horrible hopefully that will change down the road.

I mentioned on a previous thread about acquiring Kuminga from the Warriors. Somehow the Sixers have to make a trade for him.

Embiid isn't playing tonight due to back-to-back, no?  PG is always listed as questionable, as is Embiid, it's a CYA to avoid fines, no?

Could the Warriors be in trade talks since Jimmy will be gone for the year. Should the Sixers make some deal about acquiring Kuminga?  It's just a thought. The Warriors maybe on tank mode now.

Gotta ask, why do you want a player that a team trying to win it all this year won't put on the court?  Lots of smoke there, gotta think there's fire.  And this is a team that was willing to put up with Jimmy Butler's BS.

The 2026 FA class it's underwhelming to say the least.  Yes, there are a few interesting names like Eason and Collins, but the majority are so so to fringe.

Will Phily have money to play in FA market?

Of course he was sandbagging because we all know that .220 gets you huge contracts. SMDH!

Can get the Irishman back from Angels

You need to get a gofundme to get some new material.

Still not sure why you are so worked up about me calling an article from a blog site notorious for awful articles that suggested the Phillies trade for Paul skenes clickbait

Because this stuff had nothing to do with that site.

@JonHeyman
Phillies and star infielder Bo Bichette have a meeting scheduled for Monday. Feels like there’s strong mutual interest.
@MattGelb
 1st said they’d meet

Can't be true, was simply click bait, no?  And saw they were talking about Jeffers too, huh.

Well damn mra128 we agree lol...

I believe this would be the better move... Grimes is from Houston if I recall... Grimes for Eason makes a lot of sense for both sides...

The Rockets started a lineup of Steven Adams, J Smith, T. Eason, K. Durant, and Amen Thompson... They have Reed Sheppard off the bench... This could be the move for me anyway.

I think Grimes is a sixer, now and moving forward. He just has to realize his real value. I like McCain, Edwards and a future 1 for Eason.

I obsess over Ben, you obsess over me.

I prefer where I am in this pecking order

Ben's gone fishing, he ain't an NBA player anymore and hasn't been for several years.

I’m having fun, but never watching this team. Once Embiid cried and Butler left I exited.

Then why stay on the board, life that empty for you I guess.

Not giving up future 1's for a 12 ppg, 5 rpg slender alleged 6'8 PF. no way, that's a D.Moron move.

Don't just read the boxscore. Watch him play and get back to me.  He's a PF, with range.  Look at the minutes he plays, those numbers are better than solid for the minutes.  And I said two might be heavy but again might be the price.  And seems you always want the "two in the bush", not the one in hand.  Like I said before, many more 1st rounders make teams like the Nets rather than OKC.

I don't think Smith makes a ton, honestly... And contracts only go up...
   
Jabari Smith: $12,350,392   $23,643,411   $21,751,940   $23,643,411

Tari Eason:    $5,675,766   Q$8,014,181   

The bigger fear for me with Eason would be, very much like Quentin Grimes, you have to pay the guy... I don't see how we can pay both Grimes and Eason... As both will want a huge payday...

Not saying Jabari is available... But if he were to be available, I prefer his skill set and 22 years of age that would fit better with VJ... Plus he's already under contract... The future IMHO when making these moves has to play some kind of role...

The question is 2 1st rounders... And for a team that won't have a pick this year... A team that still owes the Brooklyn Nets... That is a price I'm not willing to take to continue building around Joel for the now... If you tell me it's 22 year old Smith, sure we can talk as Smith fits the timeline for our younger kids and Maxey... I still would have reservations... Can anyone tell me right now that Paul George or Joel Embiid won't go down with injury again???

Eason will get paid, Grimes overshot his value by a ton.  He's a solid 3rd guard, can look like a star on a bad team but on a good team he's a piece, not a star.
