McDaniel to Chargers all but done.

McDaniel had a rough run in Miami.   The team was too soft..  lacked discipline.  It was Camp McDaniel.   He's an odd guy.  Don't know how he would had fared in Philly/

Sirianni is our meathead coach, McDaniel would have been the brainy schemer.

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.

Your hope stops you from being realistic...

You know damn well the Sixers don't have a chance to win it all... Again, we have had better rosters and failed...

As I stated, I would make that move. For one, it's 1 year less than George... And 2, we could buy him out the same way that Dame Dollars got bought out with the Bucks... This would signal real change... And that we are moving in another direction... You know we don't have a chance, but all this hope, flowers, and balloons is just that... Here we stand 4 games over .500, and you talking WIN IT ALL? BRO...

The biggest thing for me is what will BOB MYERS do... I'm on the record of saying that Bob Myers more than likely is going to let the season ride out... And he will evaluate after the season...

To your words of can't wait to see... The positive is that in 2029, we will own or have the ability to swap the Clippers pick... And we will own our 2030 and 2031 picks... This times out perfect with the new stadium...

I honestly don't believe the Sixers will accept failure... Granted, it was Morey who built this mess... Someone will have to pay for failure... It's going to take a magical ride for Morey to keep his job... 4 games over .500 is not good enough... My question would be, will Bob Myers oversee any move that Morey possibly could make... Or will they simply let Morey hang himself...

Two years ago, we had 55-63m in expiring contracts at the trade deadline, depending on Reed. You could have gone after anyone. But Morey let those expiring rot, and gave PG the bag. Worse, he included a 15% trade kicker, when no other team could even offer a 4 year deal.
At worst, you could have signed guys to 1 year deals and played the FA market the following year.
He already hung himself imo. Unless the sixers somehow make it to the finals, I expect a house-cleaning after this season. Morey and nurse both need to go.

What do you suggest we do? Almost none of us wanted PG or Embiids extension. Don't take it out on us.
We're stuck with these contracts. All you can do is try to make it work. A PF in a reasonable deal wouldn't hurt, IMO. Barlow/Walker/Watford... there's a lot of room for improvement there.

Stop supporting the Sixers for one. Stop buying their merchandise... Stop going to the games... Stop buying League Pass... Protest... Complain to the Sixers front office... Spam the ownership...

I 100% do not agree with you regarding there's a lot of room for improvement there... Especially, when you are so close to the 1st apron... What you gonna get with the taxpayer MLE? What we getting for those expiring? MORE FOB'S (FRIENDS OF MOREY)...

We are the walking dead right now... Someone's head needs to be on a spear... Do you remember Alpha, put heads on spears to mark territory not to cross... Right now, Morey, Brand, and Knurse's heads should already be on spears... There is only 1 cure, CLEAN HOUSE with the front office and trade Embiid or George now and get some kind of value... And get rid of the other this summer (as I suggested before the season started)... But sure, let's do whatever it is that needs to be done... So once that fails, there is no more excuses for Morey... Because right now, the Sixers are just masking the odor...

We only look good against Tomato Cans... We continue to play just above a .500 team... We continue to make someone have career nights.... We continue to have Joel Embiid miss games... We continue to have Paul George miss games... We continue to have a lack of chemistry... We continue to have a flawed roster...

We are 15th in scoring, which is middle of the pack, average... The Sixers are +1.1 in points differential... FG PCT%, only Portland, Brooklyn, and the Pacers are worse... Middle of the pack in 3 point % tied 16th... Middle of the pack in rebounding, 16th in the league... One of the worst assist teams in the league, only Boston and LAC are worse, averaging 24.4 APG...

What are we doing? Stop lying to yourself as if this is some form of entertainment... As if we are some true contender... Stop saying we are a PF away... Because it's not the truth... Stop saying that Joel Embiid is back... That Paul George is back... Stop saying that we can win the EAST... Stop lying to yourself... Wake up and smell the coffee...
