Joel Embiid should be better than a easy 1st round exit

My boy is a huge Sixers fan and I've been telling him for months the team is fukking trash. Zero shooters, zero spacing. Awful coach, GM stinks, everyone needs to go.

It's funny you bring up Embiid, he's probably the only salvageable thing in that franchise(Simmons included - they think he's a franchise player but he's not).

To be fair, there isn’t a single person on that team who can throw a decent entry pass to Embiid and allow him to get to a work.


This really pissed me off when I saw this live. Couldn't make a simple entry pass

Kenny Smith made a good point at halftime where Embiid posted up too far out from the box, he said if he had the ball he wouldn't have gave it to Hakeem until he got deeper into the post

It's 2020. If you arent a star that cant initiate the offense, your impact is limited unfortunately
Plenty of offense initiating guards/wings get muzzled and bounced out the playoffs early every single season.... Joel's impact isn't being limited because of skillet he's being limited by an incompetent front office that has done a piss poor job at constructing a functioning team around him... Similarly we've seen smaller players experience the same thing ....


Anyhow...the 6ers look all fukked up...shyt is sad... I wouldn't call the guy getting 30/13 the problem tho....it will be interesting to see what direction they go in from here...front office and coaching wise
