We revisited the insane summer of 2016 where every NBA team temporarily lost their minds due to a rare salary cap spike. How did this happen? Why did this happen? What teams were ruined because of it? What was the worst contract given out during this summer? Did anything good come from it? Enjoy.

We discussed Joel Embiid's recent comments about winning a title "in Philly or elsewhere" and what we think this means for his future with the Sixers. Will this be Embiid's last season in Philly? Is this just to put pressure on the front office to make a Harden trade? After this we put Daryl Morey on Slop Trial and went through his entire transaction history as Sixers President of Basketball Operations to determine whether he is washed or not. Enjoy.

I know it is a month later but we were in the middle of slop season when it dropped and better late than never. We go through the Bill Simmons NBA trade value list again. We tried to figure out which players should have been left off entirely? Which players should have been higher and lower? And which players do not fit their tier at all. Enjoy.

Last week it was Joever but the Sixers might be back. We talked about the team re-signing back up cetner and fan favorite Paul Reed to a new contract after it looked like they were gonna let him walk in free agency to the Utah Jazz.

Gave some summer league thoughts. And then we finished by talking about the OKC thunder, who have more than 20 players and tried to determine who is gonna end up making the final roster. Enjoy.

Daryl Morey is once again dragging a long a trade request from a star and making it so the Sixers can only make small moves like signing long time fan favorite Patrick Beverly. We talked about that signing, whether the Sixers would trade Maxey for Dame, will they bring back Harden for real and will Dame end up on the Heat after all of this anyway? We also discussed why there might be other teams involved, what the best Heat trade package could look like for Dame and some wild card teams that could make interesting offers to Portland. We then went over some of our favorite and least favorite signings of this free agency period so far. Enjoy.
