Trade Embiid now

The crazy thing is Ben doesn't really help down the stretch which is a big part of the problems they have had. That's why Butler was so important.

You have Embiid and Ben who are not good late at games.

Shoulda kept

At least we can stop with the “if Ben would just shoot 3s” stuff.

That's just one of many problems. I'm sure it will be back after Ben posts videos of practicing 3s all fall long.

You don’t win it all in this league without a closer. LeBron, Curry, KD, Kawhi, maybe Giannis, maybe Jimmy. A guy who can create and score inside or out and willingly draws fouls and makes FT’s in crunch time. Neither Ben nor Jo is that guy. For one brief, shining moment last year we might have had that guy, but we let him get away.

I think the entire FO is gone now honestly

Imagine if we had signed Kemba instead of Al

I personally think that would be cool!

Maybe, but this all comes down to josh harris. he has a specific mgmt philosophy that will need to change, borrowed from his day job, so he probably doesn't know another way to approach things. even if they get new people, if it's still the "investment collective" thing, he won't get the best talent for those jobs. deck chairs etc.

Red is bad.

So we're shooting okay from beyond half court?

Watching Trey Burke drive down the lane is heartbreaking.

Who do we want to coach the team next year? Adrian Griffin? Stan? Jay Wright?

Sixers inability to have players play to their strengths is something.

For all the bullshit about Brett being a player development guru, nobody ever actually improves here. And players don’t come here from other situations and thrive

Jay Wright would be exciting. Would be good with Griffin. I would not want Van Gundy.

What if you hired both Van Gundies as Co head coach's.

In some ways this series gives me hope. Brett is actually worse at this than even I thought. In all seriousness, this is the worst coaching job I think I’ve seen since the Princeton offense came to Philly. Perhaps he’s been holding them back and anyone with a clue can make it work

I'd like Griffin. I'm usually not a fan of retreads, but I'd be good with D'Antoni too since he's shown the ability to build different successful schemes around the players he's had to work with (the SSOL Suns and the current Rockets could've each won titles and play pretty different brands of ball).

Wright would be okay, but I'm usually leery of coaches coming from college.

I’m definitely interested in Griffin. Less so in Wright, but it definitely would be exciting.
