aging stars teaming up with other aging/injury prone stars and achieving nothing. Tale as old a time.
Embiid and PG need to take Kareem roles to add depth to an already good team. Not be built around as your core.

Not gonna happen. Paul George contract right now is untradeable. Unless they find some sucker ass team to trade Embiid to, they are stuck with what they have looking mediocre as hell. This is worse than Clippers or Nets who at least made the playoffs with their fake super teams.

One of the first articles when you search PG is dream trade to the Lakers. Him and AD on the same team is going to make them jump out the window more than they already are.

The idea of PG is enticing to teams. Issue is hell have one game where you think he could be a top ten player and then 15 where he plays like a mid-level guy. All while talking and podcasting and saying a bunch of bullshyt that holds no weight. I think he'd get WAY more bail if he just shut the fukk up. He's a lame, that's not very smart, that wants to be famous. That's a dangerous combination.

That contract made sure no team will want Paul George. It's over. He scammed the last team in his career. Unless he somehow stays in the league for a few more years and then ring chases as a bench warmer for league's minimum.

This is sports

The "idea" of player X is always to these teams

Paul George is a Ponzi Scheme

The NBA is filled with Bernie Madoff ass nikkas who are nothing but walking ponzi schemes

Guy needs to retire

NBA needs to have non guaranteed contracts if they want to save the sport. These dudes are stealing money

Nothing was stolen, the Sixers willingly put it on the table. It’s not like there was some huge bidding war over him, the team he was already on didn’t even think it was a good deal.

This is on Philly’s front office. Morey needs to be fired. He gave superstar money to a 34 year old that hadn’t made an All-NBA team in years

I imagine it's hard being on a losing team with 2 guys on it who have pretty big platforms in PG and McCain. I'd get annoyed especially if either dude looking like some shyt in games

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Gotta be one of the most irrelevant good players currently

Y'all boys have fun discussing my dysfunctional team and getting the hot takes off, I don't care no more

To be fair, McCain was damn near the only bright spot for the team before he tore his knee up

Teammates might be creating burner accounts to shyt on PG in his comments section though

 

[TrillaMonsoon]

Maybe its getting old myself. Maybe it's always being a bleeding heart but I hate seeing great players fall off. And then hate seeing the discourse around these players like they ain't worth shyt

They got paid for what they've done not what they're going to do in a lot of these cases. It sucks for the fans of those teams who have that crater of a deal taking up 30% of the cap or whatever it is, but PG13 was a great player. Sorry Philly fans. Hopefully he gets some stem cells and bounces back

Celtics got the right formula when acquiring players.

You don't need to stock your roster with "stars". They went out and got White, Jrue, a Kristap who lost his potential star label and was given up on. They drafted Pritchard who is a full time starter on just about every other team, signed an undrafted Sam Hauser who is another rotational piece who is not just another body, but actually contributes to what Boston does better than any team in the league, which is shoot the 3. All of that added to their franchise tandem in Tatum & Brown, which they also drafted.

Never underestimate a competent front office. And it's not like they didn't try it with a big name. They acquired Kyrie, but when it didn't work, they didn't keep "swinging for the fences" for big names.

You could see during the Denver game our players are mentally checked out. They dont give a shyt anymore so it was likely Nick Nurse trying to light a fire or something but its too late for that.

The season is over. This team has no identity without Embiid.

At this rate we'll be a bottom 5/6 team and hopefully we keep that lottery pick.

Right...mcCain was dropping 20 a night while doing his TikToks. Philly loves him

PG is missing games with "groin tightness" then records trash podcasts with Andre Drummond talking bout they coulda been a superteam in Detroit
