We need Embiid back. Hopefully he's good to go gm3. We need to be tested! It's not ideal having an easy route before we possibly face Giannis or Tatum & much tougher Bucks/Celts units. But at the same time we are able to afford extended rest for Lowry.

Not worried. OP has this covered.

You've believed in me from the start :cry:

I have a feeling we lose game 3 then the impending Embiid return is the major narrative game 4 like against the Hawks with Capela.

I saw Woj podcast this afternoon saying Embid can barely look at his cell phone as of today. He isn't coming back in game 3.

Yea I agree I don’t think he’ll be back game 3, game 4 will be his first chance

I agree but also a little disappointed it’s been needed

Unrelated question. Can we still get value for Duncan in a potential off-season trade?

This is a boring series with Embiid out but all we can do is keep taking care of business. Is Embiid does return in game 3 that would be cool.

Boring is fine by me, provided we rack up the W.

Jimmy gonna get booed in Philly?

Butler was great with his assists and low turnovers. A little sad Herro didn't break 20 points. Bam was good today

Drob might very well have the worst contract in the NBA at this point in time and is on the cusp of having one of the worst contracts in NBA history.

Not only that but did you see his body language when he finally got on the court? Dude was not happy at all. Subbing in for a min, and he was like out of it and over it. Which matches our impression of his role on the team. We will need to attach an asset to get rid of him.

I dont like it but the idea of Duncan and Herro for Donovan does have some merit. We consolidate, get rid of a bad contract and get a young super star back but I feel ill just thinking about it. It makes sense but I dont like it.

For me it really depends on how Herro plays the rest of the playoffs. I think he fits the team very well and Butler and Donovan are a bit redundant in their position and play style. I don t hate the trade though.

Ten more wins. Let's get it done.

Another undersized player in a smallball system that asks guards to rebound

It makes perfect sense

:crazy:

Bam and Robinson for Gobert makes just as much sense

That was pretty disappointing to see from Duncan, especially because his benching is absolutely warranted.

At this point, trade Drob and Herro for an expiring and some depth. Don’t even need a starter. Re-sign Dipo and use the under lux tax space gained to re-sign Strus, Vincent, and Yurt in 2023. I’m not hating on Herro, but by 2023 its going to be either Herro+Duncan or Dipo, Strus, Yurt, Vincent, and probably another decent player.

Trade bam, herro, robinson and sign expiring vets and gleaguers. Got it.

You are one of the worst posters on this forum. You take things people say out of context constantly and personally attack them. There is no joy to be had in reading anything you say. I am done with your nonsense.
