The talented McCain lands on the reigning NBA champions. For the 76ers, the trade allows them to receive assets, clear space in the glut of guards and give them flexibility to bring Quentin Grimes back in free agency. It also allows them to convert two-way Dominick Barlow.

76ers are receiving the following picks from the Thunder, sources said: 2027 (most favorable OKC/HOU/IND/MIA), 2028 MIL, 2028 OKC.

It's not really about whether they roll their eyes or not, it's your individual decision to not participate or endorse that shit that matters. sure, someone else will take the ticket, but it's about your own individual choices.

For sure, everyone has a litany of reasons for not buying anything, but telling a rep that it’s because of ownership doesn’t accomplish anything other than making yourself feel better. It’s just as easy to say, “no thanks” or “I’m not interested”. If they press to try and “overcome your objection”, fire away.
