Embiid will be fine if...
« on: November 28, 2024, 10:54:37 am »
...Nick Nurse will give up on his leg humping man defense, and embrace more zones and drop back man defenses.

This one should be a layup for Nick, assuming he's not some OCD autist incapable of making the most obvious of adjustments.

This type of defense frankly speaking was perfect for Paul Reed.  And maybe Joel when he was in his early to mid 20s.

Offensively Jojo is finally playing the way he needs to play.  Passing it at the first sign of a double team.  Focusing on establishing position inside instead of trying to play hero ball from the perimeter.

Should be interesting to see how this unfolds.  If Nick can't get THIS one right, he really needs to be fired.

No.  Joel will never be fine. His injury doesn't heal, ever. Joel will get his stats at the expense of the team.

He's broken. Physically and spiritually. The process is officially over.
Dude should have had multiple rings but his body betrayed him.

Big John Kruckster- We don’t agree. He can’t pass and he is an average defender and his rebounding is not impressive. He is a great scorer and one of the best in that area. The guy is not too bright. What player would not learn from his mistakes. Stop driving down from the top of the key. You will get hurt.

There's two games going on with the Sixers. One that Embiid is playing and one that the other 4 are playing. (when he is on the court)

He'll go to his graves with his length and motor skills.

If he can smarten up just a little there's no reason why he can't be an effective 20/10 center for several more seasons.

I get his anger.

Like Simmons he broke his body for the team, and is seemingly getting no credit for it.

I just hope he channel his anger productively.

He didn’t break anything for anyone but himself

He donned the clown mask to get handed a 2nd round exit by lil’ Trae and his bum shoulder

By this logic we can claim that any soldier who took a bullet did so for the Purple Heart.

He is a car crash. We held on to him too long and teams will try to offer very little to acquire his services and George. I think the 76ers are the 2nd oldest team in the league. Thanks DM. At least McCain,Maxey and Yabusele are solid young players. Why we got rid of Jones and Kept Lowery we will never know. Jones never plays period for Utah.

WW2 soldiers didn’t leave hospital to dic around on private adventures

But putting on clown mask is not enough if you lose to Baby Trae.

Neither of them broke their body for the team. They broke their bodies playing for themselves and contracts. What did either of them do more than any other pro athlete ? Embiid at least tried. Simmons went through the motions. If a grown man who weighs close to 300 lbs can’t learn in 10 years that you can’t keep landing on the floor, there is no hope.

Yeah Simmons has no interest in basketball

He just likes the money, fame, model gf, and being able to dress up as a clock

All this BS started when HUMPTY DUMPTY started crying about the MVP Award. When (EMBIID) disagreed with the selections of the Greek & Joker the past 2-3 years ago. This is where the Fair Tail begins about EMBIID. Instead of crying about the MVP Award his focus should've have been on the Sixers. Finally, HUMPTY DUMPTY gets his MVP Award all things are fine. Now a year later HUMPTY DUMPTY decides to go to the Olympics to get a Gold Medal with Team USA. What's puzzling about this EMBIID decision making about playing for his homeland. Well, that's another subject. IMO HUMPTY DUMPTY should of settle with the MVP AWARD & focused more on healing his knees & resting before the season starts. As the Sixers fast forward for opening night, it's been announced that HUMPTY DUMPTY will miss the first 2 weeks of the season due to injuries. Which brings back be happy with the MVP & get lost.

For many Sixers fans this is another wasted year by signing PG who's injured. I've mentioned numerous of times the city of Philadelphia is simply cursed. Know matter how you look at it. I look at Edwards & the Twovels who are way ahead of the Sixers & are contenders of making it to MVP Finals. I don't understand the situation here. I agree with CB bring out the DYNOMITE & start from scratch. Start by firing Morey & working your way down to the bottom. Just roll with MADD MAXX McCain & Yabusele & let the other BS simply explode. Just take the chances again in the NBA Draft.

Oh well theirs more money I wasted on the NBA League Pass. @

Joel played in the Olympics so he could win something. He knew his NBA career was about over.
