Is it time for the Sixers to move on from Embiid and build around a core of Maxey/McCain?

It used to be receivers and RBs that people thought it was reasonable to not be fully paid and short contracts. But it’s starting to look like it’s QBs and NBA players.

Nah but on a realistic tip we want everyone to be Bron, KD, Curry but people just aren’t hitting like that post 30 and specially not 35+.

Also a lot of guys work in their own system but not as team players and at the end of the day teams win championships.

50 point games are cool but what does it matter if the team scores the same amount t of points without you

Should have traded him 2 years ago. Could have gotten more in return for him.

I do believe Joel is hurt. His body is giving out. Look at the history of NBA big men who had numerous lower leg injuries in their 20s. When they turn 30 it goes downhill fast for them

 

[Elim Garak]

Looks like they might be one year late in trading him imo. They probably should try though.

Maxey chipped in 26 and they got the win

You gotta run with your opportunity. Millions on the line.

I'm Jared McCain, and I support this message

 

[Miggs]

They cant trade him now...

 

[Da_Eggman]

What could even be a realistic trade ? To who exactly

What would Philly accept and what team wants to take this on

Embid is such a mental midget. Should have been move on from him

 

[RubioTheCruel]

Yes.

PG and Embiid are already out with knee issues and it’s not even December yet

 

[Dorian Breh]

I don’t think a mid version of Dame and CJ is worth giving up

The Embiid hate is too strong to listen to logic my breh

This til tok faq balling

Mccain continues to shock.

I thought dude was a tik tok highschooler who just played ball for clout.

Next thing you know dude actually gets recruited to Duke...
Next thing you know dude actually gets drafted....and as a lottery pick no less
Next thing dude is hooping at the most elite level

There was nothing about this dude's game that indicated to me that'd he be an nba player....let alone the damn rookie of the year.

That being said him and Maxey won't be able to coexist longterm. Undersized backcourt with overlapping skillsets will just compromise their production.

I'll enjoy it while it's here though. Mccain is nice.
