February 7Feb 7 Can we just blow it up and use Maxey and McCain as our centerpieces. Every year we get worse and worse and older and older. Embiid is done. PG is done. Let’s actually rebuild with assets and not just throwing picks away for 1 and done 50 year old veterans.

February 7Feb 7 Ok. Well, deadline is over and we are left with what weve got. So, we could be depressed and see how the big 3 salary is pretty close to the entire salary cap. So, knowing the failure this year was we also know we are doomed for more of the same next year. On the other hand, we can say- Grimes is at worst a lateral move, but possibly a small upgrade over what Caleb Martin was giving. Brandon Butler should be an upgrade over the washed up guards we have been playing. (Just need Nurse to give him minutes over Lowry and Gordon). We were pumped for this roster after the offseason, and its possible it just got even better, and younger. 6ers have the easiest remaining schedule in the league (I remember reading something like that). And are going to be in the playoffs, even if its through the play in round. Lets cross our fingers these doctors are right about Embiid improving with time. How about returning from a month off with a triple double first game? After the super bowl, Im going to re-dedicate some more attention to this team for the stretch run here, and just hope we get hot at the right time. The chances are not good. But, its not 0 either.

February 7Feb 7 I hope for Embiid's sake they're right, the fact he has never had even close to a clean run at it is sad. When he is on the court, he just dominates games and then he gets these injuries. But the track record with Sixers and the medical staff is horrendous
February 8Feb 8 I just looked at the score Are they seriously getting blown out by Tobi and the Pistons?

February 8Feb 8 Game is on where I'm getting dinner, I'm watching. Embiid has been nice this quarter. Looks like he has sea legs though
