Do it today, definitely do it today lol.

[@Prophet.1]

One thing I do know , is that these bruhs from Overbrook and Frankford respectively, are filled with Philly basketball knowledge as well as general basketball gems. No doubt unique and number one . ' Nuff Said.

[@Winforeverrecords]

Build in the draft hell with getting these old players

[@VLADBANNEDME-ve9ko]

SUP FELLAS, KEITH, ARE U LOSING WEIGHT? ANYHOW, WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN SONNED BY THE CELTICS. EVERY SINCE I WAS A FAT 8 YEAR OLD KID OUTSIDE OF HAMILTON ELEMENTARY AT 57TH & SPRUCE IN '83 WHEN WE LAST WON A CHIP...OVER 40 YEARS AGO. BUT, IT USED TO BE A RIVALRY BUT NOT ANYMORE, WE ARE TOTALLY SECOND TIERED COMPARED TO BOSTON.

[@pennytrue2741]

What about dereck lively who has been impactful for the mavs this season. Can we get a ready to go backup big and waive Paul reed to free cap space?

[@wannettaricks2016]

You guys are too funny! I'm telling you if we could get rid of all these people in the organization and replace them with you guys, Allen Iverson, and all the Sixers Content Creators, myself, and some subscribers we could really win a chip lol. I don't play I think we would all do well with some argumentive disagreements that might lead to slamming tables and throwing chairs lol I'm playing but the job would get done. I went somewhere and there was a guy who worked in the organization and he was telling his story and to be honest, my eyes were rolling around and around lol after it was over I wanted to look for him but he left or was in the back but the place was crowded. No, seriously I wanted to talk to him, and the people I was with were like email him lol. I mean I was listening to him as he talked so proudly of his beginnings which I don't knock because you have to start from somewhere but I wish I had run into him and talked to him about the organization hey listen I'm a go-getter I don't play. Please fix this mess it's not hard but we are dealing with people who don't know basketball Allen Iverson knows he could help but they don't listen to Doctor J either lol. Keith Pompey invite some of the Sixers Content Creators with you when you ask questions to the coaches lol. Oh, wait wasn't it you that Doc got upset with? lol Okay, Everybody have a blessed day.

[@Prophet.1]

No, pick Bronny with the 16th before Cleveland with the 17th or LA with the 18th. Or use it after drafting Bronny to trade with the Lakers for Hachimura or Reaves in a package.

[@jrhaydon939]

The problem is that the sixers dont know how to find gems,they always lacked the ability to scout and “get it right” with a few exceptions of course.I know its not as easy as it may sound, but at some point this organization has got to find that gem.I dont care how they do it, through the draft(isiah collier),g-league, free agency, or trade, they gave to make it happen,I’ll bet there’s a international player that will become a star somewhere out there right now, look at luka,jokic,giannas and of course embiid.We have to find the next one.period

[@TheSyndicate09]

Can the 76ers even trade their '24 first round pick? I believe they cant even trade it. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[@leonarronquillo593]

Hell yeah you trade it for more ideal assets. Embiid is not like in his mid 20s or anything. Dude is in the peak of his prime and has not even sniff Conference Finals. This is a no brainer.

[@527lamont]

Do it do it do it do it... do it do it do it do it do it P. Diddy voice)

[@Datbulroni]

Brett Brown was the worst! Our draft selection been the worst. I know Daryl about to do a horrible job

[@Winforeverrecords]

They need to hire AI for scouting

[@pennytrue2741]

Also I would say yes the GMs have been bad but who is hiring all of them? The issue starts with ownership making horrible decisions to begin with. The Celtics ownership knows who they are hiring and what they are doing. The sixers ownership has been a joke.

[@user-dj9gg1sq9q]

If I was a player, I would tell the Sixers not to draft me, they are a HORRIBLE Organization.

[@clintongray5065]

How about we develop a young player for once no we shouldn’t trade it Maxey can’t be the only player Sixers develop 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@philw9787]

Sixers management worst in History!!! Literally had players right in our faces!!

[@ryanrowe1975]

No

[@jrhaydon939]

They wasted 7 years, down the toilet with brett brown.smh

[@Jaysdatruth]

tatum and brown got boston ZERO champiuonships. they also missed on maxey and brunson. They passed on both players, so in my opinion both teams made draft mistakes but also hit on other (embiid and maxey). those misses however are the reasons both teams are ringless..
