    LOL, the Sixers should go next level to make sure PG is ready for the playoffs by sitting him the first 70 games.

    Overpay when considering the 4th year. 3/$150M was market value before these injuries, Morey should be fired for this one. A Jared McCain ROY award should not save his job.

    Who would trade for Embiid?
    What could they get?

    Would Charlotte give up Ball?
    Maxey and Ball would be a nice backcourt

    30 years old, max player, long history of serious injuries, only played half of the games last season, damn lucky if he plays half of the games this season, four more seasons after this one.

    How about Tate for Embiid plus all of the76ers first round picks for the next decade?

    Still no based on how much cash he is still owed.

    Still on the hook for 300 million through 28-29 with a guy who has the legs of a 90 yr old woman.

    Any team could use him in the playoffs. But he's unreliable. So you have to know that going into a deal. He could definitely push a a team up one tier in the playoffs. You just better be ready to roll without him too.

    A Kawhi situation
    Let them be off all season then expect them to turn it on in the playoffs

    Something I don't think will happen anymore

    Morey has been slowly tying his noose for years.

    Paul George used his team’s downfall and the leaked team meeting as clickbait for another podcast episode

    PG might be the biggest clown in the NBA currently

    Paul George has more appearances and minutes played on his lame ass podcast than he does on the actual court for his team

    Giannis has at least accomplished something

    PG was playing like sh*t and still hopping on the podcast during the middle of last year’s playoff series against the Mavs

    PG and Embiid are currently the two worst contracts in the entire NBA, and they are on the same team. I don't understand how Morey keeps his job after this. Even Maxey is having his worst shooting season ever, he may have potentially been an overpay as well at $40M a year, time will tell on that. I just don't see how you get out of the PG and Embiid contracts. You can tank for 2-3 years and then maybe Embiid will have some value towards the end of his contract, but PG I think will not be worth anything until he is expiring. They are paying Maxey like a player who on his own should be able to get you a better record than 3-13 in an Eastern Conference that seems the weakest it has been in a while.
