On paper it seemed that Wolves were the best to contend if he joined and could’ve brought its first championship. Miami has depth issues but Spo has done it before. Sixers can contend but Embiid’s health is the most concerning when playoffs start.

StacksHoodini

149 | 4 hours ago

I really thought it was going to be Miami for a year, maybe two.

Bron’s jump shot and the lobs to Giannis alone are good for about 5-15 pts a night. Fill out the rest of the roster with the lowest cost shooters you can get (I know LA tried this exact thing and it didn’t work) and you’ve got… something.

Yeah, he’s no LeBron James, but he was a multi-time all star during his time with the Sixers.

Even if he developed the ability to shoot free throws at a respectable level, where he wasn’t a liability in the playoffs, he probably would still be an all star to this day or at least a very solid veteran roleplayer.

He’s not even the worst #1 overall pick drafted by the Sixers between 2016-2017.

Maxey tried to beat him by showing up at 5 on the dot, but Bron was already there in a full sweat and Maxey finally conceded. He just said “you’re insane.”
