  1. They are such an unserious organization. No stepover? No hand to ear?

    Two of some of the most iconic images in the team’s history and they choose a generic crossover pose

    The Sixers can never get anything right. First, the mini-statues look cheap. Every other sports related statues are life-sized or larger. Second, how many fans / people even see these statues being over in Camden at the practice facility (a tiny fraction of the possible viewing public). Third, should’ve been the hand to ear OR step over.

    The Sixers organization is so poorly run.

    This is honestly disrespectful lmao. Fuck this organization

    I’m almost relieved this is in Camden instead of the actual arena. Sometimes two wrongs do cancel each other out.

    Get a real-sized statue with the hand/ear pose for the CC arena

  5. bruhboi2222

    gonna be honest a laughed a bit cuz it’s so tiny

  6. IReallyLikeAvocadoes

    Legit thought it was a statue of some kid at first. It looks bad, to put it simply.

  7. jpfitz630

    This is so cheap it looks like he’s wearing a rugby helmet ffs

  8. fizzzingwhizbee

    Damn I knew he was shorter but y’all did him dirty 😂😂😂 wtf is this!?!?

  9. TacticalKitty99

    I swear if we get an Embiid statue it’ll be 5’6

    I call the AI piece in my next monopoly game.

  11. We were better off without a statue, this is an expensive insult

  12. phillycheeez

    Dogshit. Hand to ear would have been better. Doesn’t even look like him

    This is clearly done because of the stadium issues the Sixers have Comcast. Likely the main reason another Sixers players statue will never be placed there. It will always be a flyers building. That’s not the Sixers organizations fault. If the Sixers fans had our own building I believe there would be 4 statues out front of it: Wilt, Doc, Barkley & Iverson.

    This is so disrespectful to AI lmao that’s a damn trophy

    Seems they were better off not making a statue if it’s going to be this small.

    I’ve seen Ronald McDonald statues bigger than AI’s

    Seems like a decent enough statue for the practice facility, and so many of these statue pictures can look extra awful at first, hopefully it’s a little better looking in person.

    Let’s just get him a big proper statue outside WFC soon.

    For the haters who have never been to the facility, here’s some context:

    This is part of the complex called the “Legend Walk” and there are multiple 76ers legends that have e statues there. All of them are this size and I’m pretty sure Charles Barkley’s robust self is thankful for that.

    The statue fits right in with all the others.

    What an absolutely fucking disgraceful joke of an ownership group. You have a golden opportunity to celebrate a legend and you release something that’s shorter than an Oompa loompa? Barely twice as tall as a barbie doll!

    What free agent are we ever going to get now? What the fuck is the sales pitch? “Come play for us, you might get your very own bronzed action figure one day.”

    What an absolute disgrace. Seriously. Don’t give these fucks one more of your fucking pennies.

    Whoever made the call on this statue should be launched into the sun.

    Why is AI the size of a 4 year old ?   That’s a cost savings piece they could easily rotocast it up in size for more $$$$$ Personally twice life sized is the minimum I would go for AI Sixers with a kind gesture on a budget that matches the size and our response.

    It’s a totally normal statue. Find a new slant.

  21. irespectwomenlol

    The Joel Embiid statue is going to be the size of a GI Joe action figure.

    Can’t wait.
