Finally, some fucking rebounds
YESSSSSSSSSS
The return of the king
BIG DRE IS BACK
Paul Reed is out for sure
🥴
Feels like a slight overpay but idk… we kinda really need him.
Hmm, that’s a lot for Drummond if we are also getting PG.
Is that a vet min?
Rolls out of bed 8 pts 29 rebounds
Paul reed GONE
LETS GO
it was fun bball paul. my mudman forever.
LFG WE BACK!!!!
Will this ultimately use the Room Exception or the Bi-Annual Exception? I like it for sure. Probably the best backup Embiid has ever had.
So long bball
Fuck yeah
I don’t give a single fuck what else we do, a healthy Embiid will go a looooonngg way. Im back on Morey’s side lol
Finally we got a fucking backup good we finally won’t get outrebounded
Lots of rebounding and good screens 😃
Let’s go
Finally we have a legit back up to embiid again hopefully now we won’t trade him away
The retirement home grows Philly is the new Florida
EPIC. We have a backup center again.
LFG everyone saying over pay can STFU we have been begging for a backup center that can rebound and not completely kill us with Joel off the floor. Obviously we like this a lot more if it’s a minimum contract, but this gives Joel a break. Bye bye bball.
What Josh Hart grabbing tons of rebounds does to a MF.
Finally… A real back up C again
Let’s gooooo!!! Love me some DRUMGOD
an actual fucking backup center. I am so happy.
Lfggg
Fuck yes!!!!
Hoping for a soft landing for Paul Reed
for everyone thinking this is an over pay we offered 3 picks for this guy and they said no. We get him while keeping trade assets.
Board man gets paid.
Fake rebounds like Mike Levin says.
I think this signing basically makes the PG + Lauri scenario impossible
A real rebounder
Bro we had Dwight Howard we had Deandre Jordan we had Andre Drummond all as backup centers. Why’s this supposed to be that big of a deal.
Good move, welcome back
This may be part of the pitch to PG – “look, you may be worried about Embiid being healthy in May – this signing will help ensure that.”
Would’ve liked to see us splurge on a luxury backup big for the inevitable Embiid injuries come playoff time, but def moments where he can show up and fill that roll
Great signing, best back up Joel’s ever had!
