    Apparently it’s a minimum contract

    Nice guy, not going to miss him. I guess his laughing emoji he used when a fan told him he should take minimum, is coming back to haunt him.

    This makes me happy, he’s gonna get in Embiid’s way so much.

    So essentially Dwight for Drum--a hands down winning trade.

    We upgraded, and the Sixers downgraded.

    so glad he didn't ask to take minimum from us before we got howard. we'd have lost both howard and gasol and been stuck with a dinosaur.

    yes, i'm saying the old guys we have are not the dinosaurs in this scenario.

    Drummond goes to play with Embiid, the guy that embarassed him time and time again on social media, saying he has a lot of real estate in Drummonds head...probably for the vet min...kind opf embarassing.

    I don't get it. You go to play behind an MVP candidate for what...10mpg? And also a guy that obviously has trash talked you to death on social media? LOL.

    It really seems like Drummond isn't the brightest bulb on the socket.

    So did he actually sign for the vet minimum with Philly? If so, guess that shows that Lakers didn't want him back and preferred Howard's abilities and game left to Andre's, in his "prime" in spite of what his fan club here maintains.

    don't think it was so much an andre fan club as a gasol haters club, tbh. promise philly would trade him to us for gasol, too.

    This is exactly what it is for me. Could care less about Drummond. But I hate Gasol’s washed and overblown 5 points and 4 rebounds a game even more.

    Have some pride whoever put that up. Garble garble garble …. Andre’s response. Garble garble garble …. Andre’s next response, and whole interview with an echo or something on the interviewers’ side. And they still put it up?

    :Nope:

    I'll take your word for it, since I didn't bother to listen.

    I did lol at Drummond saying that the Sixers are a great fit for him though.
