His problem is more that he plays really soft, is constantly injured, and doesn't really like basketball. People always going into shooting with him when he should've been amazing without shooting at all

Yeah he has a bunch of flaws, shooting right handed with his left hand is the ugliest of them.

SGA should in theory have the front running. Reckon they are going to win a lot of games.

It's amazing Embiid pretty much has gone his entire career without the media asking for him to get out of Philly (where he's never gotten out of the 2nd round), unlike our boy Giannis. I hate big media bias.

There were mild rumbles about should Joel follow Jimmy to Miami or ask out but compared to Giannis nothing substantive.

Lacob is really lobbying, praying for Lillard iteration of Bucks to fail, just like Riley & the Lakers in the past.

Embiid saying he wants to play for Philadelphia his entire career does nothing to convince me that he would not ask out in 2 years if this doesn't work out.

Not sure it's going to matter in 2 years. He's not going to take care of his body. They probably had to extend him so he wouldn't demand out now.

I had no idea league pass was on auto-re-enroll, but I guess I just signed up for it. Not sure I even used it last year, it's so limited.

Tatum has truly made me cherish Giannis that much more. I've never seen a champion act like JT, especially when he wasn't even the finals MVP. Corny is a word for it, but it's more just an insane lacking of self awareness and narcissism. How many guys have got a portrait of themselves kissing the trophy tatted? I truly don't think any athlete has stooped to that level of narcissism. He thinks he is Kobe Bean as demonstrated by that weird tweet/text thing he did after the finals, just using Kobe's likeness for internet likes and validation.

I'm not convinced that Tatum isn't an NPC. Dude's so corny

Tatum is the definition of cringe, lmao getting a tattoo of yourself. IDK if him or LaMelo have worse tats.

Every time I see a Ben Simmons update in the offseason I think how maybe he might be worth a camp invite or a veteran minimum deal. It takes a minute to remember he's making $40 million goddamn dollars this season.

Yep, just happened to me too. Received a message saying thanks for auto-subscribing for this season. I had no idea it was going to do that, but I guess i'm now going around again whether I like it or not!

AJ Griffin retiring is weird

Been a victim of that too on the MLB side.

Is he the new poster child of a guy who got his bag and just immediately quit on his team?

Before the Nova Knicks resurgence there was a ton of articles and talk of Embiid to the Knicks.
