Iko says watch out for Houston going after Embiid



Iko says it’s Houston or NY if/when Embiid wants out. Kelly went out of his way to bring it up, that would be a hell of a thing. Talks about it around 20 minute mark.

  1. Pass. They’re gonna want way too much. I’d rather see what we have with our young core.

    Lol we are not going after Embiid and he is not going to want to come here

    The ONLY thing i’d do for him is KPJ, Cam Whitmore, and the nets picks, but we would clearly have to give up sengun for him which makes me sad. I hope we stay put and see how our young talent looks next year together

    As a free agent, hell yeah. But, I’m not a fan of what I figure a trade package would have to be. It’ll be too many picks and too many players (more importantly).

    Were it one player and a bunch of picks, I could deal with that, but you know Morey wants a couple (few) of our youngsters. No way.

    Dudes one of the only players I’d be more than okay shipping Sengun off for. I know he would cost way more than that though

    I don’t buy it, Embiid wants to win now and we’re not there yet.

    And I definitely don’t want to do it if Morey is the GM. Idc if you think his moves are good or bad, it feels like lately he has been trying to fleece anyone who deals with him (player or other organization).

    At that point his reputation is gone and the Sixers need to move on, I doubt other gms or players entertain his offers anymore. It’s a fine line to be a good GM and you can’t be looking to screw over *everyone* you deal with.

    I think that’s a pass from us. Gutting our young core for a 30+ year old second banana when we don’t have a clear number one guy seems like something Mark Cuban would do. Let’s not be the Mavericks.

    No thanks. He’s going to turn into a journeyman center in a few years, no reason to give up assets.

    Stick to what we are building up. This young core will give us more than Embiid could.

  9. Help Morey out by giving our young core for a injury prone super star that plays center… Please let us not.

    I love our young core, but I am not emotionally connected yet so I would be for this. I would even give up a package that was headlined by ONE of either Sengun or Jabari for Joel. I’d prefer it be Sengun because it swaps Joel’s position and because I still think Jabari could be a superstar, but I KNOW Joel is a star and adding him makes us a contender with our veteran adds and an emerging star in Jalen.
