      Nah. He costs almost as much as Jrue Holiday, Al Horford and Derek White combined ... to be relegated to a role player in order to fit within the team. Sixers cooked themselves in good old fashioned Morey style, who banks on players past performances as opposed to realistic future ones. The team would look much better with a bunch of role players like Caleb Martin and Isaiah Joe etc ...

    I have a theory that Clippers refused to give PG the 4 year max because they have full access to his medical records and were not confident he would play at worst a satisfactory level by the end of said contract. It is very similar to the Amare Stoudemire situation with Phoenix in 2010 they let him go sign with the Knicks because he had bad knees and wanted a 5 year guaranteed max the six year option was completely off the table. Ballmer is loaded he isn’t stupid he knows he got duped by OKC in the PG trade in 2019 which was contingent on landing Kawhi in free agency. Now Ballmer is cutting his losses.😂😂

    Paul George’s moment might have been the 2013 East semi-Finals vs the Knicks where a deep Pacers team beat Melo in clutch moments but got beat by Lebron, Wade & Bosh in the ECF. From that point on, it became about the money. He went to OKC where it went nowhere. Finally the Los Angeles Beach Boys assembled 4 guys from California (Kawhi, Paul George, Russel Westbrook, James Harden) and it didn’t work. PG-13 wanted another giant bag of cash 💰 AND a trade to Philly. In a 40 game season, this is a win. In a long 82 game season, I dunno if this gets the Sixers to the Finals with a 34 yr old PG-13.

      They won’t. Celtics most likely come out the East, while sixers have another failed season and second round exit. People think Simmons embiid, jimmy butler, and jj reddick was worse than this team? Because this team is worse. If that 2019 Philly squad couldn’t get it done, this team don’t stand a chance.

    Sixers had no choice. Even though they'll never win a title with Embiid because of his injury history, they still had to do the dance and pay for another star alongside their MVP or he would bust out of there. Embiid has certainly had enough examples of players acting badly, so he definitely would do what KD, Kyrie, Harden and Simmons did. I sure hope everybody stays healthy.

He's the perfect fit next to Embiid/Maxey too with great spot up shooting and very good perimeter defense.

      You have the IT era, Kyrie era, Kemba era, Ime era and Holiday era. Because when you say that, people don't need to clarify.

    Is it just me or is there no middle class in the NBA either? It's either a near 40 year old veteran or It's a 20-something with no track record and we have no idea what could happen.
    Betting on the veteran with the risk of an injury season does feel a little safer, a little more researched and thought out.
    Regardless of what happens, forget about the money. If they lose the money lost is always a massive tragedy, but if they win who really gives a shit what it cost? You can't buy an NBA championship, all of the guys who might help you get one cost around the same amount. And if you get a young guy cheap, now he wants to get paid because he got you a chip. So the money is always a sunk cost. Fuck it, pay him the max. Max out to the cap. Pay the shit out of the luxury tax. Top tier. Fuck it. If you win, you do NOT care. If you dont win you blame the coach or front office and pay the same amount to someone else anyway.
    If you're the Sixers, it's all about Embiid. This is not the Patrick Ewing Knicks. Maxey is not pulling a team of whatevers to a championship. No Embiid, no chip. Period. Will Embiid ever have a fully healthy season? All signs point to no, so fuck it. Load up, have fun, get close, maybe get lucky but wait until the next amazing guy comes along and hope he's healthy this time.

He's never played a single game in the Finals in eleven years, playing on some supremely gifted teams, with supremely talented teammates? Never?
    He's just gonna break some Philly hearts this season when he tears his ACL, ruptures his Achilles, or has some weird injury no one has ever heard of.
    In 14 years, he has 7 full seasons and 7 injured seasons. That's not a GOAT career, no matter what some players say.
