At this point it needs its own thread. This is fucking crazy. The number one pick in the entire draft had a minor injury and as a result lost all of his talent. It’s insane this isn’t dominating every nba headline in the country right now. He’s not even hurt and he can’t play at all.

This already has a thread ........Sixers: best young talent in the league

Why not just send the kid to the D-league, and let him chuck as much as he wants for the rest of the season. I'm sure his shot will come back real quick when has to bus it from Omaha to Cedar Rapids or Fargo.

IF Fultz flops Colangelo should be whacked. Isn't Colangelo the GM that draft Bargnani when he had the first pick years ago? Think so.

He is screwing everything up with his idiotic decisions.

Bargnani wasn't terrible. He had his moments. Colangelo envisioned 2 stretch 4/5s on the court at the same time. Hindisght, Aldridge should've paired up with Bosh. But many teams were high on the next 2 guys -- Adam Morrison and Tyrus Thomas.

God, what an awful draft.

The Top 3 guys from that draft for me were always Roy Aldridge and Rudy Gay. As I remember Chris Bosh pushed hard for Aldridge and Colangelo ignored him.

The whole stretch 4 and 5 thing will probably have to be evaluated soon too. Of all the top teams how many actually have really good stretch 4's and 5's? It seems that many of the teams that rely on it aren't in contention for anything.

Some of that is being overhyped.

Maybe take a reporter or two off the Lavar Ball beat and have them address this?

Well if he is like Simmons then we will be just fine.
