I was heavy on Kon pre-draft. Moreso during the several weeks prior to all-star break. But these past few games really showed VJ's supposedly higher ceiling than Kon especially as a #1 option.

Tyrese Maxey addresses 76ers’ team meeting after Heat loss: ‘I wanted to speak up’ The 76ers held a team meeting after Monday night's loss to the Heat to address their 2-11 start to the season.

“I felt the need to do that because I wanted to share that we are better than what we have shown on the floor. There was a lot said, but it is what it is. We said what we had to say and we have to figure out a way to move on to the rest of the season. Everyone understands what’s at stake."

No other way around it but through it. Just embrace the sadness and grief. Talking to people especially those mutuals will help. And never let anyone tell you to feel otherwise.

There's always comfort & peace in remembering & sharing memories about your friend.
