Like the Bucks, formidable big three on the off chance you can get them all healthy in the same post season.

Great signing. Money doesn’t matter during the Embiid era.

great short term...likely terrible in the last two years.

Can they assemble enough of a rotation around Embiid/PG/Maxey to make it work before PG fades into bad contract territory?

Great for Philly and great for PG..

The big last 1-2 years won’t matter if it helps get Joel a ring.

Sort of great for Presti even without signing PG..

Good. The west was way to stacked.

Now Philly will struggle to build out a roster around Embiid/PG/Maxey. PG ain't getting any younger + he/embiid have major injury issues. They're following the PHX Big 3 "**** it" model.

Meanwhile the Knicks are emphasizing and doubling down on their Team Fit and Culture model.

Looks like the Clippers are no longer paper champions. How will Ballmer sleep at night!?

You can probably pencil in that player option as being picked up

I would suggest using a sharpie.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe Philly still has a good amount of picks available, correct?

scratch off tickets are always fun until they don't turn into anything positive.

Why the focus on the future when we life now? Should every roster always be built for a hypothetical future? If the 67-ers win a title this year does it matter that PG is not Benjamin Button? Health obviously is a risk, but that's part of the game.

To me, this is just more evidence that the Beard is a difficult dude to play with.

Great get for Philly, pending health.

Could challenge Boston for sure.
