Other Sports: Philadelphia 76ers, 2024-25: Countdown to April

What a puppet. Imagine getting this kind of treatment only because your dad is the second best NBA player of all-time

Tells me he has no real desire to improve. If he did, he would say let me play in the G league to develop my game. Him and his dad are frauds.

Ok, you know what I'm all for the Spectrum theming on these.

Those aren't bad. For a change.

 

[Embiid]

Except that the "S" sort of looks like a Safeway supermarket S....not Spectrum. But yes....not a bad jersey.

Little man jam!

 

[Magua]

If the entire team contracted the Bubonic plague, and only Dowtin was healthy, don’t play Dowtin.

George seems to get past the first layer OK every game, but then he gets shy driving the net with room and looks to pass (he’s been a nice passer) or chunks a layup. He’ll ideally never be on the court without Maxey/Embiid for spacing, but just something to keep tabs on.

I liked that McCain pick quite a bit for a mid first. I think I might have to count that as still hilariously wrong.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Daryl would be a better hockey GM than basketball GM.

 

[Jack Straw]

I remember watching McCain a couple times playing for Duke, I never thought he’d be this good in the NBA.

 

[Halladay]

If they hadn't had signed George now would be a perfect year to tank. They still could get Flagg with how things are going .

 

[Jack Straw]

Embiid definitely has slimmed down some. Still a lot of rust to shake off though.

 

[Magua]

I’m over Kyle Lowry unless he wants to randomly go 5/5 from deep. I hate watching him initiate while creating nothing.

The Magic are a very tough matchup for Embiid. He has been having trouble getting to his spots both games, but probably some rust + brace. Spacing has been awful though besides McCain. Pretty much can always sell out on someone driving or shooting.

 

[DancingPanther]

2-10 lol

 

[Chinatown88]

So how does Flagg fit in next year?

 

[Embiid]

Sagg for Flagg....

 

[Embiid]

This team better get their shit together. They have the energy of Jeb Bush. Teams outhustle them....they are slow with their pace and Embiid and PG are still way too rusty.

 

[Ironmanrulez]

Ive not watched more than 10 minutes the whole season. And i watched a lot of the tanking 76ers back in the day before embiid played. This team is without anything now. Maybe when all are healthy and back in rythm it will be better. Maybe.......
Today its on the same lvl as the flyers!

I spit out my coffee and I wasn't even drinking any.

[Embiid]

Still calling for 35 games played by Embiid..

On the same note....rumors are that Morey is still considering going after Kuminga bc of nagging injury concerns to Embiid and PG....

One word...dumb!

Say goodbye to those Clippers picks...

Maybe caught whatever Drummond had.

In light of the Embiid news, the Sixers are recalling Adem Bona from the Delaware Blue Coats
