He started the season off the bench as a spark plug...has been starting and needing to score more recently.
NYSixersFan is over the top a bit but yeah Darryl has been super lucky that Biid and Maxey were so good early...this roster is doo doo if you look at it closely.
You don't need to look that closely to see all the crap on the roster that's been masked by Embiid and Maxey.
I'm not over the top on Morey at all. he's an elite level fraud that's been living off the OKC Harden trade and being the godfather of analytics.
I personally think a GM is only as good as their last move and also their next in a way. I have been on the Morey is washed wait list for a while myself but always prefaced it with "well he didn't have much to work with" or " well wait until the next move doe" or "Doc Rivers is Satan". Trading Ben for Harden...was the right move. Ben is potentially cooked and Harden, flame out in the playoffs or not at the very least was a positive impact for Maxey and Biid. Not maxing Harden was also the right move...the way he did it not so much as it caused Harden to get his fee fees hurt and hold us hostage BUT he got a solid package for another distressed asset. So in theory he's done a "fine" job....BUT hes the cause of Ben and Harden being distressed via keeping Doc on and being a sneaky snek on Harden. His ideal team of 3 stars and a bunch of hot mid is just not how the modern NBA works and yet he constantly ignores the back of the roster when every year there comes a time in which we desperately need it....so that "fine" is the best I can do. He needs to HIT on this next move, we have some assets and you can't rely on FA...but this injury probably allows him to just punt on the year like he wanted and hope that PG doesn't resign or Siakam pulls an Iggy and leaves the Pacers high and dry I guess.
TLDR: I am on your side of the fence and probably will pull up a chair after we do **** all next week lol
