And now the Jimmy Buckets era. We should just rename the whole thing the Udonis era. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigHunkALove 0 Report post Posted May 23 5 hours ago, Grizzled Vet said: The summer of 2019 some decisions were made that damaged the Sixers future championship options and injected life into the Miami Heat. In 2019 the Heat traded Hassan Whiteside (to Blazers), Josh Richardson (to Sixers), and this year's first rounder (to Clippers), and received Jimmy Butler (from Sixers), Meyers Leonard (from Blazers) and Michael Heisley's favorite player Cash Considerations (from Clippers) as part of 4 team trade. The Sixers chose to run their offense through Ben Simmons, and signed Al Horford as FA, and chose to give money to Tobias Harris instead of Jimmy Buckets. In hindsight, the Sixers look foolish, and they maybe should have seen Simmons work ethic and dealt him, but I get it, Simmons was a rising star and Butler was on his 3rd team in 3 years, soon to be 4th. Portland though traded Leonard and Mo Harkless (to Clips) for the problematic and sliding Hassan Whiteside. So a Hassan Whiteside for Jimmy Butler trade was really smart. You could also argue that the Sixers put all the blame on Simmons and one play, and then moved him and mortgaged their future on Harden and still fizzled out. So looks like they got it wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting rid of the quitter is a win Bro they broke his brain in Philly. He might not have been the best guy, but he was an all defensive player who was a top 5 distributor and they torched him. Also, he had real back injuries as well. Same type of thing that turned Dwight Howard into a role player over night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
