Doris became unbearable in the 4th quarter though.
(Caruso drains two consecutive threes)
Doris: "SGA is so great, he willed those shots to fall"

Yep. Was the obvious thing to do.

Embiid likely gets shut down for the season. They have a tough 5 game stretch coming u, with only 1 "winnable" game against Portland. If they go 1-4 or worse, then just shut down Paul George. If Maxey still has hand issue, then shut him down too. Keep the pick.

Y'all need to detach from Embiid. Have to move on.

I'm not opposed to that idea. Just don't know if they can't get off that contract. They're speculating high risk experimental surgeries. I don't expect Embiid to return to form. That knee has chronic issues, it's not as simple as "fixing it". If they can get an offer for Embiid, then they have to jump at it.


I'm all for a retool. Trade off Embiid and George. Maxey has shown he isn't a #1 player, but he's a good #2. McCain shown promise. Pie in the sky, but Cooper Flagg would be a great fit next to those two players. If we have Maxey and McCain as the backcourt, they need a Point Forward.

Cavs are unfair.

How do you do that though?

Re: February All Star Trade Regular Season Discussion

Embiid has 3 more years under contract with an average of 60mil per. I don't know it feels like he's untradable.

At best, it's a bad contract for bad contract trade. Feels like the best case scenario would be that a surgery that projects him to be "healthy" by the start of next season. That's the only way I feel they could trade him and it not be a bad trade.

Trade Maxey now too. Thats the one that may be hard to swallow but you don't want to create your own Beal-like situation down the road.
