Nerlens Noel says the Philadelphia 76ers should have done something this offseason to address the teams glut of centers, telling The Philadelphia Inquirer that there needs to be a change.I think its just silly ... this situation that we are in now with three starting centers, Noel said Sunday. With the departure of [former general manager and president] Sam Hinkie, I would have figured that management would be able to get something done this summer.As it stands, Noel enters the season competing with Joel Embiid and Jahlil Okafor for playing time at the 5. Each was a lottery pick by Philadelphia -- Noel in 2013, Embiid in 2014 and Okafor in 2015 -- and Embiid is the front-runner for the starting center spot this season.Dont get me wrong. We all get along great on the court and off the court, Noel said. But at the end of the day, its like having three starting quarterbacks. It doesnt make any sense.Noel told the Inquirer that he wasnt demanding a trade or speaking on behalf of his teammates but said something needs to happen.I think at the end of the day, again, you have three starting-caliber centers. And its just not going to work to anybodys advantage having that on the same team, Noel said. Thats how Im looking at it. Im not opposed to anything, but things need to be situated.Ahead of Junes NBA draft, sources told ESPN that the 76ers explored trading Noel and Okafor. Noel confirmed the team looked into moving him, telling the Inquirer, I know I was shopped.The team declined to comment on the situation to the newspaper. The 76ers held their media day Monday.Its not disappointing. Its understandable, 76ers president Bryan Colangelo said Monday. I think Nerlens actually did a pretty good job sizing up what we have, which is a lot of depth and a lot of talent at that position.Phoenix Suns Jerseys .

Price, heading to the 2014 Olympics for Canada, was named the First Star after posting wins in three starts with a 1.00 goals-against average and a .971 save percentage.British track sprinter Jess Varnish will not appeal against her non-selection for the Rio Olympics, saying it would be a pointless process that is stacked in favour of British Cyclings selectors.Varnish was controversially dropped from the Olympic programme in April, shortly after she and Katy Marchant failed to qualify for this summers Games in the womens team sprint at the World Championships in March.In the aftermath of that disappointment, the 25-year-old from Bromsgrove was highly critical of British Cyclings selections over the two-year qualifying period, and, when her contract was not renewed a month later, she voiced further criticisms of the programme that ultimately resulted in technical director Shane Suttons resignation.British Cycling confirmed its 26-strong team for Rio last week, with a mountain biker still to be added, and said disappointed riders who were not receiving funding would be alloweed to go through the same appeals process as funded riders.dddddddddddd.This was clearly an olive branch to the likes of Varnish but one she has rejected.Ive shared this procedure with a legal expert and the British Athletes Commission, and Im sad to report that it isnt new, said Varnish. Nothing has changed to the other appeals procedures Ive been through.It is heavily weighted in favour of British Cycling, puts significant financial risk on the athlete and ultimately comes down to selectors discretion.Its pretty plain to see that selectors discretion would not be in my favour and appealing would be a pointless process.Its sad that an organisation that once prided itself on fact and data, now picks
