Embiid is still a baby and doesn't take accountability. Once Embiid is gone you can start the culture over again and with Holiday going to the Celtics the window is shut. Sam Hinkie was gone before the Sixers even drafted Simmons
October 1, 20233 yr Theres nothing exciting about any players the 6ers have brought in this year. But its easy to forget we got Nick Nurse to coach. The bench looks solid, and the coaching should actually improve the team. It is exciting to hear Embiid has worked on LOW post scoring this offseason because they expect Nurse to be using him there more. So, we dont have finals aspirations as in years past. But this new system should give us something new to look at for a while anyway.

First off, what was Embiid supposed to do, play with a broken foot? Second, Hinkie wasn’t even here anymore when Simmons was drafted.

It doesn't lessen my point of loser organization and a loser culture. Any fan that thinks the Sixers fan win with Embiid at this point is delusional. Dude is a loser that takes no accountability

How does that work contract wise?

October 2, 20233 yr Author team will take a step back this season...but i think they'll be a lot more fun to watch w/o harden dribbling for 20 seconds each possession and glen's turrible coaching.

We are going to find out if Maxey can be a #2 on a championship team this year. If only he were a few inches taller/longer...

October 2, 20233 yr Author i hate how it cuts off the twatters! Quote Nick Nurse spoke on a Plan A & Plan B regarding whether James Harden is there or not. In his plan without Harden, Nurse states "The first thing is Tyrese gets the ball in his hands a lot more. So that just automatically is going to give him opportunities for pace. That’s going to give him opportunities for offensive creation- both for himself and his teammates. It’s going to give him experience in reading defense. He’ll have to go through a learning curve with that...but I think the short answer is he’s gonna get more chances." so maxey would be kinda forced to be more of a playmaker & run the offense as pg.
October 2, 20233 yr Quote Anyone interested in getting Malcolm Brogdon + Jeremi Grant from Portland in a 3-way sending Soften and Tucker to LAC? That would be punting on cap space next summer, but would be a strong team this year assuming Brogdon is healthy, albeit with major cap problems going forward. PG Maxey | Melton | Beverley SG Brogdon | Green | Springer SF Harris | Oubre | Korkmaz PF Grant | Reed | Petrusev CE Embiid | Bamba | Harrell (IR) @Arsenal79 is this you on the other board? Anyway- Im all the way in on this idea. Reason being, when you look at free agents potentially available in the summer- we arent getting anyone who is any better than Grant anyway. Additionally, we may have cap space to get someone via trade, but we dont have assets to actually make a trade happen for anyone worth the money. In a realistic world, Grant is as good as anyone we could hope to sign, and is an actually attainable trade target (presumably.) That team is solid through and through- which I have been saying is the right way to build a roster these days rather than trying to be top heavy with a few stars and no depth. That team has shooting, scoring, iso scoring, defense.... I really like it.
October 3, 20233 yr I like that too. I was thinking about them going after Brogdon but didn’t think about Grant. I imagine they regret giving him that contract and it will bring down his value quite a bit. Agreed that the Sixers have almost no shot for anything significantly better than that with the cap space next year.

I would start Melton over Brogdon just to keep him fresher and give you some sort of defense on the perimeter. Harris at the 3 is a pray defensively especially at a year older. I would start Maxey/Melton/Grant/Reed/Embiid Brodgen and Harris can cook off the bench
