It genuinely makes me sad that I was right about Embiid.
He's washed. It's over now. This is how the Sixers spent his prime:
- wasted 1yr on a Simmons holdout
- wasted 1yr on a Harden holdout/gap yr to create cap space
- wasted 1yr tanking to save their pick
embiid is the sun they gotta just play through him they like to play through maxey early but thatβs not sustainable in real moments you need a bucket go to joel and let him make a play
they play good defense in stretches tho they can actually stop you from scoring for like 5 minutes at a time. they clearly want defense to be their identity letβs see what type of defense goat biid plays in april and may
maxey gotta be used in some genuine off ball plays nurse just got them playing pickup itβs actually insane for the talent of this roster and what they want to achieve
Joel Embiid, on getting the rhythm back on his jumper:
"Probably overthinking it too much...You can see it, as soon as I made a 3, the next shot I had in the short corner on the right side I didn't even think about it, I just shot it and let it fly."
"It's gonna get there."
