People around the league think a Joel Embiid-for-Domantas Sabonis trade could work, per @JakeLFischer
“One longshot scenario that does get mentioned by rival team strategists is an Embiid-for-Domantas Sabonis swap with Sacramento … but even longshot might be underselling it. Both former All-Star big men could probably use a fresh start, but there's just no getting around the fact that Embiid, at 32, seems incapable of holding up for a deep playoff run. Which certainly shortens the list of potential suitors.”

@aidan_34_powers The game had passed him by as far as team building. He’s stuck in the “big 3” era and was never able to identify bench talent or depth of any kind. Which is ironic bc his draft record is actually extremely strong.
Morey out, Nurse stays. Makes no sense to fire the front office but keep the coach. Any new GM will want to hire their own head coach. But this is Josh Harris, one of the NBA’s worst owners. He’s the reason why Philly always ducked the tax. Not Morey. But you can’t fire an owner.
