I could understand the warriors to win a title but I’d avoid the lakers. The west is going to come down to Phoenix and warriors. I rather be there especially warriors. I think kerr would utilize him really well in a role

If we are losing out on him then thats more ideal because if he goes to GSW, LA may still be looking but Schroder sure as hell wont be going there again. So it takes a suitor out of the equation on the next best option.

so friggin annyoing

Embiid is 1 assist from a triple double

got it

Embiid really Fed around and got a triple double.

 

Oh BTW according to national media Harden joining him and losing Drummond and Seth makes us worse.

wow. first 40 point triple double since Wilt in 1968

Imagine taking a nice nap and you wake up to Scott screaming Embiids full name st the top of her lungs... Absolutely horrifying

If you don't watch or read any of that nonsense they are whatever you want them to be. 

2 games doesn't mean anything anyways. I'm sure they will be better but, I've seen to many times where a player seems like a great fit and it ends up being a train wreck or not really as good as I thought they would be. 

Kate says Doc said he talked to Harden and he understands he is going to be #2 here- it is Joel's team.

Drummond is like a guy that scores a lot on a bad team, meaningless stats and didn't play a minute for the Lakers in the playoff last games. Seth will hurt but you hope Harden make up the %. 

It will be interesting if Doc is modern enough to work them both in a system that works for each and doesn't become a your turn my turn type of thing. That is where it could fail.

Another option 

 

 

 

If you see this guy in the street are you thinking professional basketball player?

Harden and Harris for Mitchell. Yes.

I actual was just doing them for McCollum and Ingram on the trade machine a few minutes ago.

Nope. We do not want Spider. He is a schmuck and hogs the ball. There is a reason a small market team like Utah who can't get anyone to go there is talking about trading him.

Small weird dynamic with the pats. Ben won rookie of the year and sixers fans defended Ben and trolled him. Now we would be on his side.

Then you’re going to hate a lot of pro athletes nowadays if that’s your reasoning.  Because it happens all the time now. Pro and College.  And he wasn’t "given the starting job”. Good good man.  

No I'm going to hate or dislike the ones that do it to the teams that I follow. And yes a lot more players do it now than they used to I recognise that. 

Figures it would take a TATER to bring a QB/Wentz argument to a sixers thread when the vibes are good! Get lost!

You do understand that is how the modern NBA is played the stars have a usage rate around 30 to 35%

Small market teams can never gets guys to to to their teams so how is that different. 

It seems like Embiid is really climbing in to the elite rungs of guys who have ever played the game. Not just for centers. But players. He will need some longevity which remains to be seen. But the other thing he needs is a whole bunch more Ad deals. It seems harder to be recognized at Center when youre not as frequently making the flashy play where you are breaking ankles and hitting a big shot off the dribble. Embiid does some of that but its more frequent and noticable in guards. For the big man to be a real superstar recognized outside of fans of the game, he needs to get on a bunch of commercials. Maybe some cameos in TV shows or movies. Like Shaq.
