I love Joel Hans Embiid. I legit want him to win a chip more than anything.

its not happening lol. He has too many bad habits that his talent used to allow him to overcome that his decaying body just won't allow anymore. ....and he has no idea how to adjust to his new reality and now he is getting in the way on both ends attempting top find out. He will have some turn back the clock nights and even some sleepwalker games in which he ends up with 35 9 and 7 anyway but thats not something you can rely on anymore. Damn sure not something to build around.

its time and it sucks but it is time nonetheless. Going to go play my weeb games because I just know the usual suspects will pop up from their holes and dominate the thread

Embiid’s effort on defense has been horrible.

Maxey’s defense has been a problem

Idk I think Beasley is just hot and it's easy to shoot over 6'2 players and Morey keeps adding them to the roster

Put this team out of its misery. Shut Joel down, shut PG down; reduce Maxey's minutes to save his body.

It's insulting Morey gives a press conference spewing sh** about thinking they could make playoffs and go anywhere or that 10 doctors said Joel's knee is gonna "improve" over time.

Put this dog of a team down for good!

This
Morey needs to go too

That’s a factor, but he’s also not fighting hard and has been late chasing through screens.

Maxey's off ball defense will always be an issue as he just dies on screens

Council have made atleast one of those point blank layups Oubre missed

He will get his chip eventually. Just not with us.

not if he doesn't figure out how to exist without the ball and being the first option.

has to become a much better 3point standtill shooter willing to play the Brook Lopez role for that at this stage of his career

Honestly, if KD is done with Suns; Joel would fit in PHX if PHX wants to dance with the devil in the pale moonlight with his knee. KD would fit well with Sixers if we can just find a quality big.

It’s hard to win when your big man needs the ball in his hands, is expected to protect the rim and grab boards, but is fragile and plays with this kind of effort.

And if he gets traded, we’ll drain the other team’s assets, leaving them with little to build around him.

people will have a normal one about that I am sure

Yo wtf is going on?

Mik317 · Post #119 » by **Mik317** » Sat Feb 8, 2025 2:37 am

someone desperately needs to tell Maxey and Biid to stop looking for calls EVER

holy ****

Gordon was the negative on that late run in the 3rd. He’s not in rhythm.
