    Its kinda Anti-trust the process. The teams who should be looking at Teague are teams trying to win now. Teague is probably gonna get dumb money after next year and it probably wont be with Philly.

    Yeah trading Noel would definitely be anti process and I don't think Teague is the answer at point guard. I think they should keep trying to rebuild through the draft and give it another year to see how Embiid and Simmons play.

    Yeah the Colangelo's made it clear that there is no process anymore and they want to make an immediate impact, so trades like this doesn't surprise me but I would be very disappointed. Noel has huge potential and will be crucial in our defense the future. He's already a great rim protector who makes blocks that belong on the highlight reels and he can steal.

    I've said this in the Philly thread, I'm a big fan of Okafor but I wouldn't mind trading him to Celtics for pick 3 (Dunn). We were actually interested in Schroder for a while but must have moved on.

    Apparently we've included Covington and Stauskas along with Noel for Teague.

    Get this absolute f---ing joke out of our team and bring back Hinkie.

    He's gonna try and scoop everyone up lol. Expect to hear some rumors about them wanting Butler for their top pick and some change leading up to the draft. Hopefully Rose & Taj still being in Chicago is enough to convince Jo to stay.

    @Poohdini , I told my dad about this (he's a twolves fan) and he legit thinks Noah's gonna come off the bench if they get him. :'( :'(

    He's been real excited about the twolves young core lately and also really likes Dieng (who I guess usually starts at PF), but yeah Noah's not coming off the bench lol.

    Gotta think so, Towns will be the C for a very long time I'm sure.

    Rubio
    ?
    Wiggins
    Noah
    Towns

    d--- what a f---in lineup...The ? could maybe be Lavine or a free agent signing. Lavine was coming on great last year so he'd be a great choice.

    This would also be an incredible defensive lineup with a great defensive minded coach..d---, watch out for Minnesota, gonna be scary if they get Noah(and probably even if they don't.)

    If they land Butler that would be a really great starting five.

    Haha, yeah if he's healthy he'd probably start, but Dieng is really good. He should definitely be excited, they have 2012 OKC type potential if Wiggins/Towns/LaVine improve in the off season.

    To the select squad you mean?

    Regardless it should be a great experience for both of them to be around that group and the coaches.

    Yeah I didn't realise until I posted. Doubt he'll get through looking at some of the other players but it's nice to know he is thereabouts. He's the only 2nd round pick selected.

    RIP Sean Rooks

    I guess the Cavs win took over the news but current 76ers assistant coach and former player Sean Rooks passed away from a heart disease hours after a job interview with the New York Knicks. :emoji_slight_frown:

    Jamal Murray looks like he could be a star. I guess I wouldn't be too upset if we traded Jimmy for the 3rd pick and took him. He's a great shooter and would probably be a better fit next to Derrick anyway.
