[AleksandarN]

Poor Philly worse contract in the league

There's no treatment for old age unfortunately

[EmpireFalls]

So that’s… one healthy knee between Embiid and him?

[JimmyPlopper]

I am counting down until Embiid and George are medically retired and we can all move on with our lives

[Sofia]

I hope his podcast is ok

Sixers are cooked... Even if VJ is the real deal Embiid and George are going to waste the flexibility of his rookie deal... Plus that toxic culture is still going to be there.

Embiid should have been traded after his disappearing act against the Celtics two years ago and instead they extended him and gave another injury prone player a max contract.

Get another top 5 pick and their rebuilding might be complete within 2 years if Jared mccain is the real deal as well.

I think you're gonna see the team rebuilt around VJ here within the next 2 seasons.

So likely that both PG and Joel arent at training camp. Looking like another lost season for Philly and, this time, gifting a good pick to OKC.

GG 76ers

It's a top 4 protected, they really need to tank so hard. Their main competent would be Utah. They can likely get a top 4 pick actually.

even top 4 means you only have a 50% chance at keeping it.

So basically key hole clean up surgery?

I wonder if this is a new thing or something he knew he needed. Feels kinda late if he knew about it.

I wouldn't doubt their ability to tank.

Worst FA signing ever?

[jokeboy86]

The best thing for the 76ers and Clippers is to rebuild and get whatever they can for their top players because this hope for just one healthy run is fools gold and is never going to happen. I get 76ers ownership loves Embiid and Ballmer loves Kawhi but at what point is this not sustainable anymore?

I can’t imagine being fans of these teams and just hoping and crossing ur fingers every year for good health for your stars. I almost borderline feel the same about KD,AD, and Kyrie even though they’re slightly healthier.

Embiid should have been traded after his disappearing act against the Celtics two years ago and instead they extended him and gave another injury prone player a max contract.

The first clue was in 2019 when he averaged 17/8/3 on 37% shooting vs The Raptors

Let's give Marc Gasol his flowers.

Lets assume George and Embiid are largely unavailable next year. The Sixers can be more exciting to watch that way:

Tyrese Maxey / Jared McCain / Kyle Lowry
VJ Edgecombe / Ricky Council IV / Eric Gordon
Quentin Grimes / Justin Edwards
Kelly Oubre Jr. / Trendon Watford / Johni Broome
Adem Bona / Andre Drummond
