Ahh, the old personal insults when you getting cooked tactic. A classic. Embiid played 66 games the season Joe and Bassey got waived. 68 the year before. And was I on board, or just happy Morey was making moves? Either way, let's say I was. Have I not gone back and changed my stance by criticizing the move due to new information?

I had to watch 6 years of Tobias Harris, just to be signed up for 4 years of jumpshooter PG.

Plus he was only brought here to be a 3rd option anyways. You want to build around a guy, but not giving him more smoke for his performance than the 3rd man?

Embiid the problem, but the team can't win without him on the floor? Make it make sense to why I shouldn't be blaming the GM and the coach

You called me Unc. That's a personal attack. lol We all have said PG is washed. He was bought here to be a third option but bcuz Embiid can't play he is now the second option by default so far. Not a good look for a guy who is either washed or his knee is worser than we think. Maxey is not having a good season but his issue is shooting too much threes. That's easily fixable. How do you fix a team that can't get any team chemistry when the guy the team was constructed around can't stay healthy? I don't wanna hear about that was the plan for Embiid bcuz the plan was him to just sit out back to backs. Even the sixers announcers have called it Maxey's team and just like me they don't want it to be but that's how it is bcuz Embiid doesn't play. If you wanna be mad at Morey be mad that Embiid will make 62M's in 2027. You should be mad at Embiid for choosing a meaningless gold medal over rehab.

tell Embiid to play a stretch of games without Maxey and PG and let's see what the record looks like.
 
Only 7-6 when Embiid plays btw. Boston ( without Jrue) is the only team they beat with a winning record in those games. (The Caleb Martin game lol)
 
lol You got it big dawg

“I feel like I could have done a better job with the players so that we were in a better spot to win without him,” Morey said. “That said, we do spend 90% of the time figuring out how to win the title with him. It can’t be a big focus, how we play without him.

“We know that team can’t win a championship. It’s really, how do we manage through it better? I felt like, on me, the depth wasn’t quite there when he was out to win at the level we wanted to win at.”

Tell me what free agents and trades were actually doable.

Free agent and trades have to be a mutual agreement. Morey got who was available and willing to sign. If Philly was a better franchise maybe he wouldn't have to overpay players to be there. Maybe if Doc played youngins they could see what they had before letting them all go. Maybe the reality of all of this is besides putting up great regular season stats, Embiid is not a championship center. At the end of the day Morey doesn't suit up and take the floor. The niggas that he is overpaying do. The franchise player is hurt. Will always be hurt. Has not proven he can lead the team out of the second round. His young sidekick is having a horrible shooting season which nobody denies and prolly ain't ready to be the leader of a veteran team while being so young. You would think the best player on the team would take the leadership role. The 3rd star gets hurt in preseason and really doesn't seem to know his role on the team as the coach is juggling lineups every night trying to figure out what lineups work without the franchise player the team was designed for isn't playing.

It's a complete shit show all around right now but to point the fingers at everyone but Embiid is fucking crazy.

The funny thing is they think I hate Embiid when I am constantly defending him on here against anti sixer fans which is basically everybody. A simple search would prove that. I also call him out on his bullshit. As a real fan would.
 
But they’re both right

Embiid isn’t a championship center and he never plays which deserves blame and he shouldn’t have prioritized the Olympics over health but he’s a loser and this was his only chance and this is after prioritizing MVP over health

Also this team does suck without Embiid and nurse/doc deserves blame

Also also the organization sucks because why would you keep building around a guy that’s hurt all the time?

But Embiid has played with LOADS of talent

I was wondering why the coach didn't seem upset about this.

Anyway, I wanted my Raptors to draft him if he was there at 19. Glad they didn't. Dude showing signs of an attitude problem.

Not only that he's been putting up some historically bad numbers


3.8 Per on 15.4 usage

34% turnover percentage is absolutely insane
 
O.G. said:
Blaming Morey instead of Embiid is insane. They went and got every available free agent they could afford just for Embiid. Like niggas wouldn't have gone insane if they didn't sign nobody. I do blame Morey for letting Embiid play in the Olympics tho.

Morey isn’t what you or many think he is……

They really gave dude a 4 year extension after watching him hobble around in Paris all summer. SMH
 
All I know is if I was waiting for this long on an Embiid led team to finally do something, and then they go and sign PG, and then the team starts 15-22 cause Embiid is hurt again, and then I see this mfer joking picking his ass on free throw shots, I'd be done with the team forever. Lmao. Embiid doing that had me mad as fuck and I want the Sixers to suffer. Had me like damn not like this

He ain't the goat GM by any means. He made the most out of what little money they had left after signing Biid, Maxey and PG this summer. What else could he have done? A bunch of 1 and 2 year contracts to fill out the bench. All the money is gone. He is trying to win now and now the franchise player is not playing which is making all those roster moves look sketchy bcuz the players don't mesh without Biid being out there and PG in and out of the lineup. I just wanna see the starting 5 play 10 straight games together.

There’s no one person/blame to blame

The organization just sucks as a whole objectively

Sad but true
