You're talking like it's dooms day lol

Many teams would kill to be in the position the Sixers are in lol. The reigning MVP and b2b scoring champion, along with Tyrese Maxey? And the ability to have two max salary slots next off-season? Yeah, it aint all that bad lol.


Who are these teams begging to be treadmill? Maybe the Wizards and Hornets sure

The future is brighter for Cleveland, Orlando, and Indiana than Philly… all IMO

Watch the wonders Nick Nurse does for this team...

He's already throwing shade at Doc for having a stale and predictable offense last season. God it'll be lovely to have a coach who actually makes adjustments.

And they're not a treadmill team if they have the flexibility to add another superstar lol. All the teams you listed are below the Sixers so stop reaching 🤣

Bucks just lost to a #8 play-in team as the #1 seed and fired their HC. Worry about your own regressing team plz

I’m just saying Embiid has played with multiple All-NBA / 1st team running mates (Simmons, Butler, and Harden) yet somehow never breaks the 2nd rd barrier. Giannis has had 0 running mates earn those honors and has won a title and a run to the ECF, all while being younger than Embiid (dont say Giannis has played basketball longer because Embiid was playing way before Giannis pre-NBA)


Name one player that Embiid has played with that played at the level Middleton did during that Bucks run.

....I'll wait

Embiid didn't start playing basketball for the first time until he was 15 lol....

Giannis I believe was 12 or 13.

But okay. Gotta check your facts man. Embiid has wayyyyy less experience than Giannis, and about half the amount of NBA games played. Hence why Embiid has continued to get better, and Giannis is still Giannis (great player) with the same holes in his game.

Maybe if Embiid could stay on the court he would have more experience, the man is 29 and you’re talking about him like he is still developing LmAo bro is gonna be 30 going into the playoffs this upcoming season. Giannis is 9 months younger than Embiid but you make it sound like Giannis is old

With that said it's crazy to me that Tatum is only 19.

I never said that

I simply said Embiid has way less experience playing, which he does. Then again, Embiid has improved his game every season and has continued to develop his game which is why he has been a top 2 MVP candidate for the last 3 seasons, just won MVP last season, and has been the top scorer in the league the last 2 seasons. Idc how old he is, if he's still getting better and brining new parts to his game like he has we're happy lol..

Meanwhile, as dominant as Giannis can be he still can't shoot almost 10 years into his career, always leads the league in travels, and still relies on just dropping his shoulder and running guys over with sheer size and athleticism. Guy has no bag, but just imagine if he did....
