I also think they needed to fired Nick Nurse, Daryl Morey.
What about Grimes maxey Barlow pg embiid and oubre
25 to 38 games lol 😂😂😂😂😂
50- 32
If Grimes is available, then Grimes definitely should start over VJ.
I like Barlow at the 4
Just wanted to say I appreciate the thumbnails you post have some thought put into the captions and just dont spam THIS IS MASSIVE over and over again like some content creators.
I think they win at least 50 games. If it's a normal season that's typically what they do when embiid is healthy and plays at least 60 games. And this is the most talent that's ever been around embiid. 50 wins seems very doable to me
Hot take even fully healthy this team still isn’t good
If healthy
1ST
McCain
Maxey
Grimes
Oubre
Embiid
2ND
Edgecombe
Edwards
George
Barlow
Bona
VJ not ready to start at shooting guard. Maybe small forward temporary until PG back Grimes is a respected player in the league now
Okay with PG out I think the starting lineup on opening night or preseason finale is Maxey Grimes Oubre Barlow Embiid. If Joel doesn’t play in preseason finale
Maxey Grimes Oubre Barlow Bona will be that
Embiid has no business playing in preseason game unless he can float in the corner and bang threes and play no defense. I can’t handle an Embiid injury again before the season starts. This dude is my GOAT I can’t take another season when he doesn’t play. He’s one of the reasons I care about basketball
I’m going 6o have to keep it very simple for YOU. Like you said. Trendon Watford is a BOSS. If you don’t have him in the starting lineup you can’t spot talent and I’m trending in that direction anyways all last year you never mentioned Justin Edwards & you were life at the games. All I could see was a kid who did everything and played the right way & you mentioned him maybe 2 times. Trendon Watford will be the next one to creep up and slap you cause you never saw him coming. This is a 7 foot Point Guard with the will to win “every game”. Philly don’t even understand what they got in Trendon Watford this kid will be a Perinial All Star bank on it. Star. & if he reaches his full potential Super Star. And I’m banking on super star cause his best friend is Maxey. Why is Philly sleeping on Trendon Watford so hard it’s like you guys can’t see talent
Grimes & K.O in the starting lineup? Sure if you want another 24-25 Repeat. Sure. These guys both are bench players why do you think Philly didn’t pay him? He’s an Off the bench Quick Punch that can score 10 in 10 before the other team knows what happened he’s not a starter that’s why he’s always traded. It would be nice if he could play a Klay Thompson role he’d thrive at that but he’s too Gimme Gimme to be on a starting rotation same as K.O
I overthought it, I was thinking Drummond was saying he’s TIRED so Bona can take his spot 😂😂😂
2:10 Embiid having a scheduled rest day the day before our final Preseason games tell me they are planning on playing him a couple minutes.
Good video RB🏀
5:56 I agree because I think it’s important to establish glass dominance or atleast not be dominated on glass right away at the start of the game, so started Barlow next to Embiid gives us that cushion.
And until PG is healthy I’d start Grimes at SF.
But I think Nurse will start Oubre because Embiid likes Oubre and has chemistry with him.
46-50 wins is a fair expectation if they're healthy.
Maxey Grimes Oubre Bona Embiid
45 n 37 sounds good. 2nd round exit then blow it up
Joel Maxey VJ Barlow Oubre
I say 50+
42 wins
Maxey, Edgecombe, Broome,Grimes, Embiid
Embiid is no longer responsible for protecting the rim.
52
