Clarkson has no vision and can't see the floor. He just relentlessly attacks, which is great, but you can't win games going forward with him being the primary shot taker of your team. @Gil Scott-Heroin just has a grudge against Russell because he wants to stand by his Mudiay chops.
:dahell:

Don't tell me who I have an agenda against. I've been saying this before y'all cornball D'Angelo stans made a petty war out of this. He'll be a good player in this league, just not at the PG position.

That's what he's always been. If Embiid is ever healthy, I don't see how that pairing works (or any of the other centers). I wouldn't want Jojo parked on the perimeter shooting threes.

Noel at the 5 is the best fit for Philly

If Embiid is still a mobile player then PnR's and dump downs from Simmons to Embiid should be effective because of how large he is. Between Simmons/Noel/Embiid that's some crazy length on the floor, but 2 of the 3 will need to be able to shoot mids. Embiid in the past has shown an ability to shoot the mid so if Simmons can then it should work.

Noel can't shoot and neither can Simmons.

If you're playing Simmons at the 4 then he's the kind of guy you want next to him, rim protector

Bayless/Henderson/Covington/Simmons/Noel isn't too bad of a lineup, good shooting with Noel down low

ESPN and Brett Brown have like a 10 min convo about his team and Okafor an afterthought

Philly even want him around? Something must be up with dude behind scenes

What Brett Brown said was encouraging at least, they want him to shoot even if he doesn't make them, that's what you gotta do.
