That's fair.
I'll still take Embiid in a close game, because he's almost impossible to game plan when you spread him with shooters.
But Simmons is the opposite, he creates assists and leads the league in 3PM assisted. He's a nifty all-around defender, and he is very valuable. People act like he sucks lol.
But that being said, with Brown gone, do you guys look at different options or do you still go with Embiid/Simmons?
Simmons is easily a top 20 NBA player lol. He's just not in a good fit because the spacing on this team is ass. But All-Defense 1st team and averaging 17/8/8/ on efficient scoring while leading the NBA in steals.
I don't think Embiid and Simmons go anywhere, BB is getting fired this off-season unless the Sixers make a little run, but even then they'd have to advance to probably save his job.
I think we have to see what a new coach can do before they blow up the main core.
