The 76ers tanking this season is the most necessary tank in NBA history

it's also the most necessary tank ever... realistically, we we're trying to get to five. Right. Because if you get to five, then one team can still jump you. Right. And you And we'll still get our first round pick... it's like you have to lose. You have to lose.

The 76ers did keep their pick after the lottery, so the tanking strategy technically 'worked' for its intended purpose of retaining the asset.

Cooper Flagg will likely play in the second round of the NCAA Tournament after a Toradol shot

I have a doctor on staff... Dr. Dan... He said that probably out for the ACC tournament. March Madness... probably a Toradol shot, steroid shot. Wrap him up. He could probably go in the second round if needed.

Flagg played in the entire tournament, starting from the first round, and appeared to be physically capable, though Duke lost in the Elite Eight.

Cooper Flagg should go to the NBA this year no matter which team drafts first

Cooper, this is why you gotta go to the NBA. No matter who drafts you, no matter who is in position to the lottery, you're risking injury... If the Wizards get the first lotto pick, don't even think twice. Go to the NBA.

This is a subjective career advice take.

Kansas is a broken team that everyone should bet against in the tournament

Kansas just broken. I they're not gonna be, that's gonna be one of those ones where they're gonna be a five or six and everyone's going to say, oh my God. They're go down goes Kansas. Are we ready to say we, we watched them all year. They weren't good.

Kansas lost to Arkansas 79-72 in the first round of the 2025 NCAA Tournament, confirming they were indeed a team to bet against.

Daryl Morey is a good talent evaluator but a bad team builder

Daryl Morey has done a lot of good things for the future of the 76ers... He is a very good drafter... He's very good at evaluating talent. He's not very good at putting a team together, which is probably pretty important for a GM.

This is a subjective assessment of a GM's career tenure.

The Bucks would be idiotic not to trade Giannis Antetokounmpo now

You gotta turn the page and this is the best way to do it. 'Cause you can get real, you get real [picks] and like jumpstart your next chapter. You gotta trade him. You have to, it would be idiotic not to trade him at this point.

Subjective team-building philosophy.

I didn't want the Sixers to make the playoffs because this iteration of the team is bad

This isn't a good team. They're not a good basketball team. I don't know what happened in the Celtics series, but this is who we thought they were. I didn't want to make the playoffs because I didn't want watch this iteration of the Sixers. This team is bad.

While the Sixers were swept, they were a playoff team, making 'bad' a relative term of frustration.
