Beginning of the end.

That takes stones. Maxey is a special person.

At least there's some good-ish news...

Well, yikes. One piece of good Sixers news buried in here: Tyrese Maxey is "expected to make his return this week, either Wednesday in Memphis or Friday at home against the Brooklyn Nets." https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/42486989/sources-tyrese-maxey-challenged-joel-embiid-76ers-meeting

Sources: Maxey challenged Embiid over tardiness

"Tyrese loves Big Fella, but this is the elephant in the room," a person involved in the meeting told ESPN.

Players told 76ers coach Nick Nurse they want to be coached harder, and coaches in turn said they want players to practice with purpose and attention to detail.

Embiid accepted the messages sent in the meeting, sources said, but he stated that he is sometimes confused about what the 76ers are attempting to execute on the court.

Beginning of the end.

Shams just said that they had a team meeting last night and Tyrese Maxey challenged Joel Embiid to stop being late. When Embiid asked late for what, he was told 'everything.'

Leight

 

[Embiid]

Fire Nick Nurse!

The real question is why is this out there? Who does this benefit?

Can't argue with him on that point.

ESPN and Shams are only running the story with someone's permission though. Someone fed it to him.

But the elephant in the room is Embiid not looking playable in all 3 games.

Nick Nurse wears normal glasses. Move on.
