I just don't understand why he changed his shooting mechanics so far into his pro career. I've been watching and waiting to see something about him working on his mechanics. I just believe he'll be better this year

So there's no chance


You mean no chance Embiid staying healthy ? With more talent/ support = less pressure to carry load, you never know, stranger things have happened.

And don't forget Grimes (21.9ppg, 5.2rpg, 4.7apg, 1.5spg, 47FG%, 37 3P%)... if they resign him they'll have Embiid, Maxey, Edgecombe, PG13, Grimes...

Imo Edgecombe gonna avg 14-15ppg, he seems to have the right attitude and mentality to go with his talent to succeed in this L, more firepower for them can't be bad at this point.

It's gonna be us, Sixers, and Cavs for top 3 spots in the East.


I see you picked up some Sixers copium that fell off the truck :lol:

Quicker release, I think that was the point of it. It worked in the playoffs when he hit clutch shots for us

In the recent Jazz 3-team trade, they got Kyle Anderson... maybe they buy him out... would be a nice vet min pick up for us... otherwise, just lock Shamet up as plan B.

Answer in yes or no, have Mitch and KAT ever been bought out of their contracts at the age of 26?

sham and I coming together to bury the hatchet in your back.

Needing to side with sham after all those L’s you took from sham this year to find some sort of redemption is nasty work!

Meanwhile I’m celebrating my chip with Ihart.

I side with whoever sides against you 8-) Also, I side with Knicks over players that get bought out when they're not even 30 and aren't Knicks. KAT and Mitch would never happen to them.

I only celebrate Knicks as well, it's about to be 2026, **** Non-Knicks as a staff, record label, and as a ****' crew.

I see you picked up some Sixers copium that fell off the truck :lol:

Yo I know you have some ties to Villanova, any word about why Eric Dixon isnt playing in any of the lakers summer league games?

Lol completely forgot about McCain

So they got Embiid, Maxey, Edgecombe, PG13, McCain and Grimes

Scary when healthy. Imo with firepower help, Embiid carries much less load and he's gonna stay relatively healthy... and with Nurse as head coach they may be who we should worry about not Cavs.

I think Cavs' confidence gonna take a hit... they gave their best effort and got easily trounced... and they're shopping Garland and Allen, they lost Ty Jerome, and unless they make major moves they're about to return with less talented roster...

The rook Edgecombe is like Jimmy Butler in a DWade body and skillset could be scary !
