Dwight is also a foul machine who cries after every single foul and racks up technical fouls at a ridiculous rate, so what's your point?

They're literally the same type of player. High rebound low post guys that don't shoot or space the floor, only difference is Dwight is like 35 years old and Drummond is only 27 so there won't be as much load management with Drummond when Embiid is out. Drummond is a better scorer down low, more of an offensive player in the post but Dwight is more of a high energy guy which worked well for short spurts when he played.

Dwight wasn't even starting when Embiid was out most of the time. He was better off the bench, and still got his limited minutes because giving him a full load at his age was risky.

There really won't be much difference between him and Drummond, they'll have the same exact role and be asked to do the same thing. Drummond won't be asked to be a starter like he was with the Lakers lol, he knows his role in Philly.

bulls rebuilt better than the 6ers with less tanking.

The NBA intervened and royally fucked the Sixers, we all know that. Hinkie being removed before he was finished his rebuild, dumbass burner account Colangelo being forced into the front office, etc. The NBA didn't like that a top market team wasn't bringing in the money they should have been bringing in as a result of the tank, so they forced changes.

It caused ups and downs, but in the end we're still in a great spot with good problems to have and an MVP caliber big man. The Sixers just had their best season in 20 years and the #1 seed, why would we be that upset? Especially when all of our best players are in their 20's still.
