always an excuse

wonder what next years is? PG is a shadow of his former self. If he played like he did on the pacers we wouldn't have lost to the Nets in the playin tournament. Embiid injured his cervix and wasn't able to play half the season. Maxey can't do it all.


Lol everyone knows the only thing beating the 76ers will be health. That's obviously the major question mark around them. Can they he healthy come playoff time...

Nobody denying that. They very well could be injured and crash out early again. We all acknowledge the risk but you gotta take the chance now with an opportunity to win it all.

So you believe that a healthy Sixers is the best team in the league?

Top 3, easily. But hard pressed to find a team truly better if they're 100% healthy (big if ofc).

Hell, they were already top 3 last season when healthy and that was with guys like Tobias Harris, Paul Reed, and Cam Payne all playing key roles who are now replaced with Paul George, Andre Drummond, and Caleb Martin. Lmao quite the upgrades....

Reality is they won't be healthy all season though. Just need to pray they can be come playoff time. Morey isn't done though, he re-signed KJ Martin to a balloon contract so he can use him as a trade chip before the deadline to bring in a good PF, etc. Maybe get a Bobby Portis or something.

Morey hasn't built a roster until now....the fuck you talking about?

This is literally the first time he has a clean slate and look what he did. He inherited a fucking mess with guys like Tobias, Simmons, and Horford all on monster contracts lmao. Quickly put together one of the best rosters in the league now.


Quickly put together one of the best roster LMFAOOOOO

Bro you are too much. Dude has been the gm since 2020, GTFO.


TOP 3 EASILY :rofl: :wallbash: :rofl:

Easily one of the best rosters...

Top 3 fav to win it all at the moment too betting wise.

They could literally do anything and you'd still hate. They had the best offseason possible and you're still acting like it's no big deal :rofl:

I really hope Paul wakes the fuck up and helps Embiid get his ring

Gets to be the #3 now. A lot less pressure and should fit nicely next to Maxey and Embiid.

Tobias would get so many open shots next to Embiid it was absurd. His TS% with Embiid on the floor was insanely good, and his TS% with Embiid off the floor was insanely bad. PG is going to benefit from him so much and he's sooo much better than Tobias.

Paul George posted the best FG%, 3PT% FT% and overall TS% of his career last season. He's as good as ever catching and shooting (best in the NBA last season). He doesn't plan to be the Batman or Robin either, he knows his place already.

Embiid has played a bit over 400 games in his career after being picked 3rd overall in the 2014 NBA draft, meanwhile someone like KG had played in over 900 games by the end of their age 30 season.

Are we really expecting this guy to be healthy? I would be stunned if Embiid could play back to back to back to back 7 game series, the playoffs are a grueling marathon that I don't think Embiid has the body for.
