How exactly do you expect a 300 pound player to move?


As good as he was 1-2 seasons ago.

His defensive numbers have been on a decline


Yeah I mean, people acting like Embiid is a normal 300-pound. The appeal was how good and quick he was for his size, if you remove that then he is not nearly as appealing.


I have high expectations from Biid and Ben

Calm down, but that is also why we had to overpay for Al. Biid has shaky durability


You don't pay max money to have insurance though.


He plays the role asked from him. He was not expected to play like a $30+M player. Only fans do


LOL he's being paid $30M/yr but not expected to play like a $30M/yr player. This is the "logic" of our front office.

Might as well light this money on fire because we don't need it!

Yeah, i heard our owners are rich.

Not an issue until we can’t get depth for Al.

Lol are you seriously suggesting it’s only fans that expected the Embiid/Simmons/Horford lineup to work. The FO obviously expected to use Horford for more than like 8 minutes a game as a backup to Embiid. Pretending like fans are the ones with the unrealistic expectations when the Horford lineup was such a disaster they had to move him to the bench at the all star break is like shameful level gaslighting.

I dont know man..

Last two seasons we have one of the most talented starting unit. And this season, we are one of the deepest teams in the league.

Ownership have been willing to spend. FO has been putting a lot of talent.

Look at our top 10 most used 5 man unit, then get back to me.

We played the first quarter good, IMO. We were able to draw 10 fouls on the Celtics and all 5 of our starters showed up in the stats.

Plenty of time sixers didn't capatilize. The refs are going to even it out.

Facts:
Team plays worst defense with Biid
Team plays best when Ben is off the floor.

Doris Burke is so insanely in love with the Celtics. I don’t know why she’s always calling their games on national television.

Biid dropped too low on the PnR defense.

I really hope you are getting paid by someone for this nonstop trolling, shilling, and gaslighting. It would be a shame for you to do all this for free.
