holla if ya hear me!

The midseason award for "best rookie" goes to Carter-Williams. From his opening day performance to today, MCW has been the best rookie by a significant margin despite missing games due to injury. He resembles Damian Lillard in that he's a very good rookie who looks like a cornerstone piece moving forward. With this loaded draft coming in June, the Sixers' front office can look for a great player who complements what MCW brings to the table, rather than seek just the best pure player. The best part about MCW, something that will factor heavily on draft day, is that he can help make other players better. He also can get a lot better himself. Carter-Williams is just touching the depth of his talent -- an enormous pool of potential that will take years to fully form. Exciting times for Sixers fans are on the way.

MCW > Jrue

[Sgt PSN]

Hate to say it because I was a big Jrue fan, but I might agree with that. I think MCW has a much higher ceiling where Jrue is about as good as he'll ever be.

And am I the only one who keeps forgetting that Nerlins be lurking and will be a part of this team next year? 

[ice grillin you]

nerlens was cleared for basketball activity last week so no

[Sgt PSN]

Prior to last week dumb dumb. I kept forgetting he even existed for approximately 3 months.

[ice grillin you]

not me....hes one of four lottery picks this team should have in the lineup next year (pray)

also theres been a bunch of print and tv pieces on his rehab

[phattymatty]

nerlens was pretty much clear cut #1 before the season started last year so no i have not forgotten about him. i almost forgive him for picking kentucky over gtown.

is he def. not stepping foot on court this year or they might give him some pay later in the year?

[ice grillin you]

they havent said....but i think its only because they dont wanna look like they are tanking....i cant imagine him playing this year

[SD]

Brown said in an interview a few weeks ago he wants him to get into playing shape then they'll assess him from there.

pretty much this is what they have been doing the whole time and is the right way to go...publicly state that well see what happens...wed like to get a look see at him....but privately knowing there isnt a chance hes playing on a lottery missle of a team

[Eagles_Legendz]

the only way i would have been in favor of Noel touching the floor this year is if they were in the bucks situation and had like a 5 game lead on the worst record with a few weeks left to play.  then suit him up if he's 100%.  as is, there's no reason to do it.
