    Shake up the roster a lil bit (around Feb 16 - 18), our second unit would look better than now.
    Step1
    trade Landale, Tate and Holiday to Philly for Bamba, Korkmz and Pat;
    Step2
    let Pat lead second unit alongside Jalen, Amen, Bamba and Uncle Jeff, let them fly, let them play uptempo;
    Step3
    move Bari to 3, Tari play 4;

    starting:
    Freddie / Pat / Amen
    Dilly / Jalen
    Bari / Amen
    Tari / Uncle J
    Alpi / Bamba

    second unit:
    Pat
    Jalen
    Amen
    Uncle Jeff
    Bamba

    First, they wouldn’t do that trade. Second Bamba is overrated

    First, Once philly find embiid refusing to sign, they got no reason to keep these assets; second, then let's find an underrated.

    Philly is off to a 4-1 start and are trying to win a title, this trade makes no sense for them.

    Remember when the Lakers traded for Mo Bamba for nothing last year and he came in and was a key contributor down the stretch in terms of playing 9 games and being waived

    I'll never understand the obsession with players that give you empty stats. Do better OP.

    it's no brainer Philly and us in different situations - Philly is a playoff contender, we are a rebuilding team who is trying hard to keep our head above water from day ONE.
    to philly (or injury-prone Embiid), it's a long long season...so essentially 4-1 is nothing but a very very small size of samples on paper, 77 games to go, not to mention they're one puzzle piece away from being a legit ECF contender.
    but to us, our season goal is to nurture our young players as good as trying to win more, the latter is crucial to Ime i believe, so imho if Ime want to win more, he gotta tweak the roster, that's it.

    Thread is an insult to the G-League, more like Siberian League caliber.

    Throwing batteries .....
