sooner or later philly is gonna be good. They are collecting a bunch of good young athletic talent and plenty of draft picks. Once they get some veterans they could be dangerous in a couple years
It would take a lot of patience to be a fan of theirs. Bobby Marks said 3-4 years before he sees them competing for a playoff spot. Also, I can't imagine high quality vets signing there unless there are major changes.

i agree it sucks to be a philly fan right now. But eventually they will have a lot of talent but it will take a few more years
KP has hit two 3P shots tonight. That's the gold standard he's looking to average. Only 20 players did that last season in entire NBA . . . and only one of them was a C or PF (Ryan Anderson). If KP gets to that level, it causes serious grief for opposing defenses . . .

But they have so many good young players and draft picks that they should just trade for a couple of vets who are under contract for 2/3 more years.

That has to be a symptom of something not right . . .
Called being a jump shooter. He has not gone to the basket much.Not sure his elevation is totally back, although I didn't watch him much last year, so I don't have a good idea of his game.
the trajectory on his shot tells me he has never had much lift in the first place.
Syracuse up by 5 with 3 minutes left.
Lopez doing what he can...to help Philly!

On the other hand, KP is only shooting 42% so far. That would have been the absolute worst in NBA last season by far (the worst PF shooting percentage was 46%).
kp6 continues to surprise with something new every game it seems. the double clutch!!!
Syracuse and Wisconsin tied at 53 with 31 seconds left and Cuse has the ball.
What planet is Porzingis from? Seriously!
wow it's so clear kp6 and melo love playing with each other. they can solidify into a great duo.

wherever it is i want to thank them
Oh crap. Still tied at 53 with 10 seconds left and now Wisconsin has the ball.
The third quarter is just awful basketball.
Dumb foul by AA. The point is to force a tough shot. What AA is doing is forcing a tough shot and then bailing them out with a foul.
