Did Rondo inability to shoot stop him from creating for others? 76ers have shooters. Reddikk, Saric, Belinili, Embid, McConnel all can shoot. It'll be up to Brown how he sets things up. And that doesn't minimizes Simmon's impact he's still goin to create for others while getting 15 pts 8 rebounds. This is a young team, what you think they're going to make a run?


If someone didn't watch NBA and just went by ur post they would think he's a project or something
He is in a sense, it's just his floor is really high. If he was being called the next Rondo he'd be coming along amazingly. But a player getting comparisons to LeBron is definitely gonna need to develop his shot and all around offensive abilities if he ever wants a shot at actually living up to that hype...or if the Sixers hope to ever become a championship team.

Yes, Rondo's inability to shoot hurt the Celtics, their offense was trash for most of their run considering they had KG, Pierce and Allen, they never had a top 5 offense with all that talent. And, the Sixers currently don't have 3 HOFers to pair him with so I don't know why you'd want to make the Rondo comparison since it's not very flattering for someone who is getting LeBron comparos :ld:

He needs to learn how to shoot, this isn't a case of someone shooting and missing, it's someone having so little confidence in their shot they are refusing to shoot which makes their offense predictable. Stop saying they're young as an excuse too, they should aim high in the playoffs considering they have the ROTY right, and Embiid will most likely be a first teamer.

My point is if he never become Lebron but is a 6'10 Rondo who's really goin to complain? Espically if they're winning championships in the future.
