It did in last two drafts. DA stock piled picks and couldn't do anything and got stuck with stash players.

The RTRS podcast is gonna be an interesting listen after this news ....

be thankful its not worse than that. i hope simmons gets better soon. these injuries can reoccur if you dont recover well.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

I guess this opens things up for Saric to play a lot.  Maybe Luwawu will get more time, too.

Yep, definitely basketball karma for the ridiculous product they've put on the floor the last three years.

Here's the thing, while it does "sort of" clear the logjam a bit for the bigs, all that means is that either Okafor or Noel is going to just play more time out of position at the 4. None of Embiid, Noel, or Okafor can really play the 4, so it's just basically going to have them playing out of position once again, which will hurt their value. If anything, they needed one of those three to go down, not Simmons of all players.

 Remember he looked like a little girl after Brown stuffed him for the second time at the rim in summer league.

 How awesome would it be if we ended up with the best overall prospect from this Draft.

WOW they are cursed! I'm telling you if Danny wants Noel make a move now before Embiid goes down again.

For the rest?  Karma is not a nice lady.

If the fan base caused this then I shudder to think at what you guys must have done to cause Len Bias.

From the internet Doctor parade I've seen anything from 5 weeks to 3-4 months.

I think the location of the break plays s big part

That's pretty dark man. There is a difference between a guy having a two month injury and a guy passing away at 20. I get your point but not really a cool comment regardless

Wow, I guess Saric gets his chance this season then.....or maybe he should look into buying some extra insurance on his long term health considering that he does still play for the Sixers.

Sorry. To hear the news. He is a very talented In a variety of areas. I hope he heals completely.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
