How Elton Brand ruined the 76ers, a thread.
After being the 3rd seed with 51 wins and losing to the eventual champions in the secound round on the only game 7 buzzer beater in history, Elton Brand decided that this team wasnât good enough.
He made the choice not to offer Jimmy Butler a max contract, who carried them in the whole playoffs, sign & traded him for Josh Richardson which is basically a way worse version of him
Gave that money to Tobias Harris, offered him a 5 year-180 million dollar max contract after having one good season (most of it wasnât even on their team) to average 14 points per game in the playoffs
Within minutes free-agency started just decided to let one of the best shooters in franchise history and a key piece to their success the previous season JJ Redick walk on a pretty cheap contract in New Orleans
With all their remaining money, he thought it was a good idea to give 33 year old Al Horford a 4-year 109 million dollar contract, to not fit with Joel Embiid at all, as you probably couldâve seen coming in todayâs NBA. Now heâs the most expensive backup in the league.
The Sixers fell to the 6th seed this year and are about to be swept in the first round with a terribly constructed roster, no money for the future, and this core is most likely tied up for the next 4 years unless you can somehow make a trade with a desperate enough team.
All in all, fire these clowns.
