Bring Hannahs back?
I've been very impressed by Hannahs this week, against two likely play-off teams.
Should we bring him back?

No, he was MIA when our season was on the line.

He showed up to two of the most meaningless games of the season and was MIA for the rest of the time. If we're serious about ourselves we should be looking for better than that.

That would be the biggest mistake besides the current issues with one of the most historical NBL Franchises. I'd bring in Casper Ware JR and solid import defensive big man to complement DJ. I liked what I saw from the young guys but the past few years the imports in Adelaide have been terrible to say the least.

ME don't let facts get in the way of a good story when you hate a player.
"He showed up to two of the most meaningless games of the season and was MIA for the rest of the time."
Wins
Round 2 - 15 points vs Tasmania - We don't win that game without his big shots
Round 2 - 25 points vs New Zealand
Round 9 - 19 points vs Melbourne United - He sends the game to OT and basically gets the win.
Round 20 - 23 points vs Perth
Round 20 - 22 points vs Sydney
losses
22 points in close lose to Tasmania
24 points in close lose to Sydney
Hardly MIA for the entire season.

Not if the franchise is concerned with winning when it counts. A lot of nba players get their career highs in the last few games of the season. Think down this path when you consider his amazing input of very very late.

Yes and while we're at it the Wildcats should re-sign ScoMo.

Yeah, on top of those years.
In all serious though don't remind me.

For the right price he would be the perfect third import coming off the bench. For anything more than that his defence needs to improve a lot.

Sixers want to start winning, start by dumping DJ.

Can't have an up and down yo-yo like Hannah’s next game he will get under ten and if another team wants Hannah’s then go for it ,good for cairns who need someone to light up from the arc.
CJ can get 3 new imports for next season.

Rocks in head to want to dump DJ. He be hottest recruit for every other club. The guy just performs. Take a look at his numbers this sesson and in the losing side. Team rebuilding and you want to get rid of the one genuine proven elite player club had in last 10 years or more. Dumb stupid sightshortedness.

I wouldn't call those games meaningless. Perth and Sydney were motivated to win

SixersFan points out a handful of games when he wasn't completely useless and acts like it discredits the fact that he only really got on any kind of roll when it was all already over. One-off games when he scores which are taken out of context, and most of those points probably in garbage minutes mean very little. We all saw the season, SixersFan. You cant post some numbers and expect people to forget just how underwhelming he was for 90 percent of the time. He's an import. He should be getting those numbers as an average not as six whole games in a 20-something game season. Why waste an import spot and import money on a guy who only occasionally shows up? The Sixers have a hard enough time given they've already locked themselves into McCarron for three years. We don't need to keep another dud for what he did in some dead rubber games

Hannah needs to go. His locker room attitude and ego not good for the team

It's a pretty common theme most years, but you'd have to say we have easily the worst import pairing in the league.
Hannahs was a guy who could score well enough when he had a game that he felt like trying, but had 0 interest in playing defence and had a significant portion of the season where he did less than nothing. As SixersFan said, he had 7 games in the season where he was pretty good. That's 1/4 of the season. The other 3/4 he sucked.
Withers would hit the odd 3 pointer and play a bit of defence and otherwise was pretty much useless on the court. For a team to only have 2 imports and have one of our top earning players miss the entire season pretty much, Withers just wasn't nearly good enough. If the season wasn't a write-off early on, Withers should have been replaced by mid-season.
I have no interest in seeing either of them in a Sixers jersey next season.

Social medias posts suggests that he's not coming back, Instagram has had plenty of "im going to miss this place" (referring to the beach) story posts.
I don't think CJ managed him very well, understandably he didn't play much defence and is undersized at his position but was never given a consistent role with consistent minutes which resulted in him forcing the actions when he would get in the court.

Hannahs had a great finish to the regular season:
