2018 NBA Summer League Rosters

Fultz had about the same or better shooting percentages as Ball, Fox and Smith. Believe whatever conspiracy you like, it’s pretty obvious you have an agenda, but the version of events I listed above have be collaborated by burner-gate and numerous Philly sports reporters.

Fultz fg%: 40.5
Ball fg%: 36.0
Fox fg%: 41.2
Smith fg%: 39.5

My statement was accurate.

 And Fultz played mostly garbage time while Smith (for example) started and finished most games while also being maybe the most aggressive penetrator in the league yet only averaging 2 fta’s a game, which obviously really hurt his fg%. Again, you need to establish context.

 Why would I have an agenda? Fultz looked like crap. That can’t be argued. Those same reporter’s have also acknowledged that NO ONE in Philly wanted Fultz other than Colangelo, and he apparently had really underwhelming workouts for them. If he really hurt his shoulder doing "weird shooting drills", then maybe professional basketball isn’t for him. Also, the word is "corroborated".

Fultz did not “look like crap” after coming back from his injury. He had a higher fg%, higher ast rate and lower turnover rate than Ball or Smith. Why is it everyone wants to jump on the guy who had an injury but give a free pass to Ball and Smith?

After coming back from injury Fultz shot 42.9% from the floor and averaged 15.4pts and 9.4ast PER36. That is far from looking like crap. Those are actually really good numbers for a 19 year old.

 And as Oh Canada pointed out he shot ZERO PERCENT from 3 and 47% from the line. He also played mostly meaningless minutes during meaningless games. Oh, and his own team wouldn’t even play him during the playoffs because he wasn’t good enough to contribute. I get that you Philly fans are passionate, but you also have to be objective and realistic.

The Sixers won every game Fultz played in the regular reason after he coming back. He play 17.7 minutes a game and those games were far from meaningless as they were fighting for the 3rd seed. But I give up, you obviously have an axe to grind with Fultz and/or the Sixers. Feel free to have the final word.

 42% isn’t very good when its only 2 pointers. The other guys you pointed out were jacking up a lot of threes and had a lot higher effective field goal percentage.

No one will call him a bust yet, but he wasn’t very good. The Sixers talked to teams about trading him to move up in the draft. I think that says it all.

Fultz shot 43.3% from 2 after returning from injury which is by no mean good. But know what, Ball shot 42% from 2, and Smith Jr. 43.6%. Once again their seems to be a double standard.

No Fultz didn’t shoot 3s but Ball and Smith probably should’ve either after shooting 30.5% and 31.3% respectively. After coming back from injury Fultz was playing for a team that was fighting for the 3rd seed in the East. Every win counted. He didn’t have the luxury of doing whatever he wanted like Ball/Smith. He had to earn his minutes and that he did. Averaging 15.4 points and 9.4 assist PER36 in nearly 20 minutes a game on a team that went undefeated after he come back.

As for the trade rumors, so what? There were rumors about Dario and Covington too. There were also rumors about Jaylen Brown.

 He played in 14 games, 18 minutes a game, 7.1 points, 3.1 rebounds, 3.8 assists , 40.5% field goals, 47.6%FTs and he attempted only one three pointer all season which he missed. He played crazy limited games and minutes and you want to create a smaller sample size so he looks better than other players? The other guys were starting games, playing against starters. Fultz was a backup,  didn’t start one game. Per 36 Minutes Is Crazy Given His Limited Minutes And The Fact He Didn’t Start A Game.

 Stop acting like Fultz was a reason they did well. It was there shooters all on fire, not Fultz. He played in only 3 playoff games, 23 minutes shooting 14.3%. They ran over the Heat, till the best D in the league cooled them off.

I like Fultz, he should improve and the Sixers are going to be good for years. Just stop trying to fudge numbers to make Fultz seem better then he was. It was a horrible rookie year and a ton of guys looked a lot better than him. 

The numbers are the number, every stat I listed is accurate. Yes the sample size is small but it clearly shows that after coming back from injury he played way better then people are giving him credit for.

 He was so good that 3 games into the playoffs they stopped playing him. He ranked 11th on the team in minutes played. He was passed by Justin Anderson in the playoffs. I think that says everything about how Fultz was playing.

Nevermind his best game of the year, was the last game when the Bucks rested all there players. Sterling Brown lead the Bucks in minutes that game.

Believe what you will. I watched every game Fultz played after coming back and he played way better then people in this thread are saying.

 This is hilarious
