One of the worst teams ever assembled. Earlier I stated that this was year would produce some of the worst bottom teams ever. The 76ers are exactly what I was talking about. The bottom of the league is falling further and further behind the good teams.

But are they trying to go 0-82?

lol maybe. I mean, they deliberately drafted an injured player and they traded away arguably their second best player. They're going for top 3 picks and tons of cap room or something...

They've got the Mavs and Spurs coming up so chalk up 2 losses there. Then they may have a shot against the Timberwolves and Thunder. If they lose both of those, watch out below.

I think that the league should force new ownership for this team. Hell, if they could make Sterling sell a competitive team, they should also force this franchise to sell based on intentionally tanking the entire season.

I hate this notion that teams "intentionally" tank. The players aren't going out there and saying "Well I'll just get my paycheck tonight and try not to break a sweat". The coaches aren't saying "Well we have no chance so I'll just sit down the whole time and troll Twitter". Just because a franchises' front office decides to clean house and start from scratch does not equate to the players and coaching intentionally tanking games. Hell I doubt many of you have even watch any Sixers games. They are playing hard. They've taken several teams down to the final possession. They just don't have the overall talent to win because they are reabuilding. And yes, they've had some horrendously lopsided games and that happens when your team is extremely young.

The Sixers are taking the Cubs approach to rebuilding their franchise, trade away big contracts and veterans to build a team around young talented players. It is going to take a few years but the young players they have on their team (Carter-Williams, Wroten, Noel, & Embiid) could turn out to be an extremely talented core down the line. Let's not forget that if not for a foot injury, Embiid likely would've been a member of the Cleveland Cavs as the #1 pick, and who even knows how that team would have looked now. Watching him in college, this kid could be something really special in a really short time.

And that's just about what some around here endorsed the Bulls doing. Nobody would have been happy waiting for the payoff which was in no way guaranteed.

With the Bulls unbeaten with the actual starting 5 in place, let's hear how GarPax needs to be fired right now.

I see your points regarding the players and the coaches not quitting. That is to their credit. However, I believe that the ownership is trying to tank the season by putting a team this bad on the court. It is not fair to their fans at all. Who will pay to watch this farce of a team.
