    I wonder if they tried to trade Embiid, if anyone would bite. That's a significant cap hit for a player that is forever injured.

    At this point... I don't thing anyone would bite. You can't pay someone 60+ million and watch him miss almost half of his games. Embiid has literally missed 400 games in his career and played just over 400. And the situation is rapidly deteriorating. You would not even do a Reaves-Embiid swap at this point, there's no way.

    It's possible Embid's career is over and he's owed all that money. Wow.

    I can see us moving into the top four teams in the league by the end of the year. I did NOT see that happening. If we didn't wear those sucky bad luck jerseys, we might be there now. That's crazy.

    Similar to how Mavericks/Cuban karma for Chris Paul landed us Luka …. to Philadelphia for all those “trust the system” years? ;)

    It is really hard to judge. Are we really this good or are we just playing over our heads right now?? I don't really believe that but I have a hard time understanding how we became this good while AD was injured. Then we traded him for a player who is injured and we have gone from playin at best to potential top 4 in the league. F'ing weird to me.
