July 3, 20232 yr Hats off to embiid if he truly feels that way. Like I still feel upset that they didn’t let him finish the job he started just to see what he would’ve accomplished, and the NBA is OK with OKC basically doing the same thing except not glorifying it. However, the 76ers also Fed him multiple time. Like off-season were they let Butler go, signed Horford, gave tobias and Ben Simmons an extension.

July 3, 20232 yr Author i feel like they're kind of stuck until the harden trade happens...don't know how much cap space (if any) they have to use or what positions they need to fill.

To me that deal is actually pretty fair I don’t think they want Powell due to his contract and not having the flexibility to potentially have close to a couple max slots in 2024 offseason (either Lowe or windhorst mentioned this). Also think the clippers don’t want to give up Mann based off what’s been reported

In fairness with tobias, you don’t want to take back bad contracts or contracts that aren’t expiring. According to wondhorst/Lowe if the sixers just let harden and Harris walk that next offseason they have close to 2 max slots available with just embiid and maxey’s cap hold on the books. Would be the first time the sixers have significant cap and flexibility since we pissed it away on Simmons, Harris and horford. I think that’s an issue besides sixers over asking price. This is playing out like they are gearing for a major splash(es) in 2024. And if they F up embiid is gone

His dumb@$$ and agent has made a ton of mistakes with him and contracts. Him opting in made it so he can’t sign an extension until the 2024 offseason. He’s gonna be 35 then. The only way he gets the years and money he wants is if he plays well and especially on the playoffs. Otherwise if he pulls what he did with the rockets and nets or just plays poorly then he’s gonna wind up potentially going down a russell westbrook path (don’t think to that extreme). Ryan Russelo discussed it and how the league is looking at this if he stays there.

Could have just had Murray 2 years ago.

Could have just had Murray 2 years ago. I never said it was a good plan. Just the plan i think they are rolling with. And I’m guessing likely laid it out for embiid. Frankly don’t think they’d carry it out if he wasn’t on board when they informed him. Then again is the sixers and they are a poorly run franchise so

If they can sign him next summer at the correct price point he great to hold on to. If he walks for nothing then it's a bad bad move for Morey.
