I didn't watch a second of the Sixers game but how did they get annihilated by the Cavs? I know Embiid wasn't playing but if they think Simmons is that dude to the point they won't package him for Harden (or another star), they can't be getting waxed like that by bottom feeders.
cavs play hard as fukk. dwight got frustrated and that was really it. nobody took the energy back

Haliburton looks good on the Kings. I wanted the Suns to pick him but some of the media are saying he tanked his value to drop to the Kings.

Quote from Zach Lowe podcast with Jonathan Givony from Draft Express

https://www.sacbee.com/sports/article247300064.html

“People are like, ‘How did Haliburton fall so far? How did Avdija fall so far?’” Givony said. “A lot of this was by design. The consistent theme that I kept hearing in the predraft process from agents was, ‘I hate the teams that are drafting in the top 10. I don’t want my guys with any of those franchises.’

“And so they were very selective with who got medicals and they were openly telling teams, ‘Don’t take my guy, please.’ So I think that is a big reason why Haliburton ended up going 12th. He could have gone sixth, I think, had he wanted to, but he was open to, you know, ‘Let me sacrifice seven, eight million dollars, because I think it’s going to end up working out for me in the long term in Sacramento.’ And Zach, how many times can you say a player wants to go to Sacramento? It’s incredible.”
