Personally never thought this franchise could ever get this far.. But it was great management and luck that got us here. This is a franchise that doesn't have a lottery pick anymore (and probably won't for at least the foreseeable future) but should be able to get star players to come here in a trade to get us over the top. And it was DD/JV (both lottery picks) and Lowry (traded for a lottery pick) that have helped elevate this team to where they are anyway.
I was all in for tanking after see the sh!t show that was Lowry, DD, Gay and Bargnani. But looking back that 2014 class has been really weak. Not a fan of Wiggins at all. Embiid is a good player but I'd personally rather have this version of Lowry.
And if we're talking championship... we're pretty close. A lot closer than a lot of teams in the league that have to compete against the best player alive and the best team that's ever been put together (on and off paper).
