i’d rather have that money committed to JB than PG😂

Paying for good players > cap room

They need to figure out Embiid’s situation though

Good lol

i dont care lmfao paul george had a shit ass contract

What in the blue fuck is Boston smoking

Brad Stevens is a bottom 5 GM just off this move.

They got Brown by trading washed up hall of famers for picks. Then they traded Brown for a washed up Hall of Famer because he liked an Instagram post and said he enjoyed this season.

Much better than being committed to similarly as much for Embiid, Maxey, and PG

This core can win it…

If Embiid is healthy the might be the 2nd best team in the East after the Knicks ( A big if).

They will not be paying a 37 year old Paul George 56 Million though

Aren’t JB and Embiid like arch nemesis

Are they over the 2nd apron now?

this is an absolute win for philly. the best ability is availability and you were paying a guy 55 million a year who couldnt play 55% of the time 

Edgecombe was kept too. Nice.

That’s actually a good core so whatever, not to metion you have VJ on a rookie contract

It don’t matter. The Sixers much rather have a 30 year old brown rather than a washed up injury prone Paul George with 2 more years left on his awful contract.

Doesn’t matter, had sex

I mean it’s a hell of a team now jesus

Sixers fans are tripping over themselves happy that they made a move that will take them from the Eastern Conference semis to the Eastern Conference semis

Embiid is the weak link. But on paper it’s a scary team. I don’t think it will translate as well but they should be good.

Rather have $500m to those three than in the pocket of Josh Harris to spend on the fraud Redskins…

I mean they probably feel a lot more confident than the Lakers do today. And if this doesn’t work out you can start again in 3 years instead of 5. 

Better Jaylen Brown than PED P.

i feel like my midlife has been defined by successive periods of the sixers ‘going all in’ on an embiid core. hope this one works.

Is this not a championship team?

Honest to god if, and i know its his slogan but Embiid stays healthy that teams kinda tight

Trade bum embiid and they’re a contender

Enter LeBron James on the min

I think you are ignoring the major positive here. They are out of that awful Paul George contract

that clippers 2029 pick swap is the part nobody is talking about. if we are in rebuild mode by then thats a potential lottery ticket for philly. they really went all-in on this core

Say what you will about JB being overrated but he actually shows up in the playoffs unlike Playoff P.

Get off our dick.

$500 million American?

I think they are a real contender now so worth it

And VJ will wanna get paid in 2

PG and JB won. Both got what they wanted

I’m hearing sightings of Danny Ainge with a gun

Time to add LeBron to that list

Oubre, Grimes, and Edgecomb are all solid secondary players and Philon would have been a late lottery pick in almost any other draft. Are Drummond and Bona replacement level for the inevitable injury to Embiid? If not, then they’re still going to have problems.

yikes

Sounds like Harris needs to dump VJ

We got you homes

maxey is a fucking DOG, he defends at a high level, he attacks and can shoot teh 3 at a efficient clip and he is willing to play 48mpg and is a great locker room guy. he has ONLY improved his game since minute 1 in the NBA. hes worth a max

Cash cow leauge they can afford it

If they can find a way to unload Embiid contract it doesn’t look so bad.

it will be fun watching this team face miami

Sixers need to trade Embiid.

Don’t threaten me with a good time

W blockbuster

World will be gone in 3 years. Exploit market inefficiencies.

Better than oft injured 36 year old Paul George

Hahahahahah carry that load VJ

Thats a great trio to have that much locked up into

I mean, worse case scenario just build around Maxey, VJ, and Brown. Embiid doesn’t perform up to standards ship him out and keep retooling. They’ve got an excellent core now.

If VJ takes a step and Maxey takes another half step forward, what’s the ceiling here?

Ok.. I can see why they didn’t re-sign Oubre now.

On paper, that’s a good fucking squad

Wait he got traded?

You just became an even better team overnight lmao

Man if you could count on Embiid at all they’d be among the favorites to win the East

Trust the Process 2.0?!

If we can flip PG for JB we can flip Embiid.

They’re not winning anything any time soon, that’s a lot of money tied up in these guys.

Sorry buddy but this is a terrible idea

1. PG is already a bad contract. They aren’t trading him for a bundle of picks. JB is by far the best asset they possibly would have gotten

2. Embiid doesn’t come off the books until 2029. When Maxey is 28…and that’s when you want to rebuild

Awful awful comment

$500M for three guys means the rest of the roster is gonna be vet minimums and two-ways. hoping your 8th-15th guys can carry minutes when embiid sits is a gamble i’ve seen too many deep benches get exposed

Three max contracts and one of them has a history of breaking down in April. Thats a lot of faith in a guy whos never been healthy for a full playoff run.

Awesome 😂

Not great roster building but surely they kept their good rookies like McCain

And still won’t pay luxury tax

So we pay out top guys and then fill the rest of the roster with garbage. And then we lose games because our bench of absolute shit

Fuck Josh Harris

Wow. The trade that ruined two franchises.

what could go wrong?

money committed to great players…how horrible for them.

I’m confused. Why is that seen as a bad thing? It’s literally several times better than having PG with a similar price tag

27 teams are incredibly jealous of that situation

If GS wants Embiid Sixers should give him there in a second. Or for a second rounder. What ever works.

Every dollar spent is wasted as long as Embiid is on the roster. I love seeing him fail and he never disappoints. Brown and Maxey are great, at least.

And VJ honeycomb

But their fans complain about their owner being cheap lol

A better spend of half a billy than on AR, walker kessler and Luka… right?

Trade Embiid for Markkanen

It’s significantly better than that same amount going to a core involving PG.
