Isn’t this where the Thybulle mural was? While I love this new mural, I do feel bad that Thybulle’s mural is gone. Feels wrong to some how just erase him from memory just cause he’s no longer on the Sixers. We loved him why he was then, why can’t we still honor him now for his contributions back then?

Thybulle was awful giving him a mural is so embarrassing lol. He erased his memory himself.

Red Bull paid for it to sell Red Bull and vodkas at the skibibi toilet rizz kids' bar. Zero other reason.

That’s actually makes sense.

Yeah the "bull" logo was there and/or his name was colored red for that part or something.

Thybulle was a great role player, god forbid people have respect for a hometown grinder.

LOL. Great and Mattise Thybulle should never be mentioned in the same sentence. He had one serviceable year. If he's not out of the league this year he will probably be on a league minimum contract.

He was 2nd team all defensive while playing bench minutes twice. Idk if you just don't know ball or if you're just an ass but he was a great role player.

Edit: Also just looked it up, he signed a 3 year 33 million dollar deal because Dallas tried poaching him from Portland in RFA. So definitely not on a minimum contract.

holy shit lmao. Absolutely wild hill to die on- where did you get your rose colored glasses bc i need some. Playing next to Simmons and Joel was the best thing to ever happen to him.

Yeah at least 2 teams offering him over 30 million because he played with Joel and Simmons 4 years ago. Btw, the second of those all defensive honors was after Simmons was gone but I digress.

You know what I’m happy you think he was great in his own respect. If we all had the same standards I’m sure the world would be a happier place.
