yeah bob cooney is a tool
I mean it really just depends on how fast he heals. Everybody heals differently so I think that will determine whether or not he plays this year more than anything.

Kids 19 so i expect him to heal fast. The doc that did the surgery did Durants second surgery and Embiids second surgery. Recovery time is 8-12 weeks. Sixers arent going to put a time on it though just in case theres a setback

Which is the smart thing to do. No need to put more pressure on him during rehab and get the press in a frenzy if he doesn't debut when they expect him to.
Reggie Jackson with a banged up knee gonna be out around 6 or 8 weeks

1st pick is very possible again with Ben getting hurt...Hes probably going to miss around 40 games

Sixers also hold the rights to swap with the Kings. So thats anther chance for #1 pick

back to back 1st and 2nd pick...... would be loco for epic 2017-2018 season

If that happens, time for the NBA to put in a rule change.

You can only have a top 5 draft pick for two straight seasons. Meaning, Sixers had a top 3 pick two years ago, they had a top 3 pick last year, now if they were to be a lottery team again this year, the highest they would be able to pick is #6 overall and nothing lower.
