Shams is the Klutch guy, too, right? He's the one who keeps talking about the Sixers while Woj (CAA) has nothing.
It's very suspicious is all I'm saying.

The one and only really reliable source, Marc Jackson's brother's friend's brother's brother is yet to chime in on what might actually be happening. I'll wait to hear from him.

Maxey. PG13. Lauri. Embiid.

PG13 has clearly sent signals he's not very interested in coming to Philly. So moving on.

OG at $35 million (with Lauri at $18) leaves us $7 million before Maxey is handled.

He's a big time rebounder, but he's also a headcase.
Prone to taking plays off and throwing mid-game fits if he doesn't receive the ball. Walking back on defense. Inconsistent motor. Awful, but willing shooter. Weak mental fortitude (imo). Huge playoff dropper.
Plays a bully ball style game so he gets to the line a lot and can make plays off the dribble and isn't the worst passer for a PF.
Would be way down on my list of targets unless we were receiving 2+ firsts to accommodate. And even then...
If we're opening up cap space for the Knicks to improve, or retain all of their guys then handsome compensation is a must.

I agree with all of this. I will say that if you can grab him for the 16th pick, it’s worth considering. He’s Embiid’s age and needs to start making sacrifices to win it all. If he can be a 16-18 ppg guy and gets his rpg up to 12, then he’s a very good offensive option for us. The cap flexibility to get another high end starter makes us a formidable team in the East.
