Joel Embiid has requested a trade to Miami and Miami ONLY. And he is demanding that Herro and Rozier, and Herro and Rozier ONLY, be traded for him.
In related news, Daryl Morey just purchased a Moleskin journal.
EDIT: Trade request retracted. Fraudfather was too late again.

Embiid is a statue out there. The injuries have him moving like a rock monster.

We need to ride Bam and Herro the way Nurse and Thibs have with Brunson, Maxey etc in Game 5. No excuses.

Maxey is becoming a superstar before our eyes. He imposed his will in that elimination game. Imposed his will. The only person on our roster capable of taking over like that is Butler when he is healthy, rested and motivated. No one else on our team can do that.

Jimmy once upon a time was able to do it in spurts, for 2-3 games out a 7 game series. These days he may not be able to reach those peaks we enjoyed so much. Expecting Jimmy to perform in that matter again is asking too much at his age and mileage.

Rumor is he wants a max extension like $70M per year extension.

We’ve had guys outside of Jimmy take over playoffs games and carry us to wins.
Lucky for Maxey he was able to redeem himself because multiple turnovers don’t the stretch and 3 huge missed free throws almost had a different convo around him tonight. Hell the Riley truthers would be saying precious was the right pick

Any championship level teams needs consistent high level performances from role players. If our role players were hitting shots, this would be a series against Boston.
Maxey is a great argument in our favor moving forward with Pat. He knows he missed on one. Decidedly missed on one. **** up. I like where that could lead him to on future decision making.
