happy to be a treadmill team is wild after talking all that shit
What are we supposed to be rooting for?
Build up as many young players as possible for the inevitable Embiid and PG injuries. Give a young core to build through. This is by far the most talented young backcourt we've ever had though with Maxey/McCain/Grimes/Edgecomb.
If Embiid and PG are relatively healthy all season, by some lottery winning miracle, they can easily contend for the East. Especially with all of the torn ACL's in the conference. But that's not likely, so best prepare for the future which they're doing a great job of.
