SSN - Philadelphia 76ers

Predict Joel Embiid’s stat line for tomorrow’s game against France 👇 I’ll go first: 11 PTS & 7 REB

Joel Embiid shined in the first half against Brazil, but rode the bench the entire second half. Thoughts…

@willadelphia3 Very true, the “hometown hero” so to speak is always desirable, but Bertans outside shooting would be great for the frontcourt.

@SSN_76ers I prefer Morris because he was here before and he's a Philly guy, but I'm fine with either. Besides, I'm willing to bet neither of them would see significant playoff minutes anyway.

Davis Bertans and Marcus Morris are essentially the finalists for the 76ers last roster spot. Who would you rather see them sign?

Joel Embiid not in the starting lineup for the first time with Team USA. He is the only player to not touch the floor yet. Is there something more serious behind it, or is he today’s version of Jayson Tatum against Serbia?

Tyrese Maxey showed up to his press conference earlier this week with a physique much bigger than social media expected. It seems the NBA took notice of the public's opinion, as the 23-year-old revealed he was drug tested late Friday night. sportingnews.com/us/nba/philade…

Joel Embiid reacted to Gilbert Arenas’ remark: "Obviously, I don't condone it. I'm African first and foremost… I don't know exactly what was said, so I can't comment on it. If it was that negative, it's just disappointing.”

🚨 ATTENTION SIXERS FANS 🚨 Tyrese Maxey will speak to the media tomorrow at 11 AM EST — Closely followed by Paul George’s first press conference as a 76er at 1 PM.

Here's what Stephen A. Smith had to say about Joel Embiid's Team USA comment (via @FirstTake) "I think it's fair. I just think it's like he's managing expectations, and I don't like it... Here you are on the Olympic stage... I don't want to hear all that."

In Joel Embiid's interview with @nytimes, he talked about how his name could've been in the G.O.A.T. debate if it wasn't for injuries. Agree?

@sahtrece Completely agree, I’d place rebounding as the last priority on that list tho.

Feels like the final void in the 76ers' rotation is a backup power forward. If Philly has to choose between trading for Grant Williams or Harrison Barnes, who do you want?

Joel Embiid’s latest comment about Team USA is an interesting one to say the least.. “You look at the talent that the U.S. has, but there’s equal talent on other teams. And the talent that’s on the U.S. team, you also got to understand most of those guys are older. via @nytimes

Tyrese Maxey’s face does a pretty good job summarizing the article 😂 sportingnews.com/us/nba/philade…

Jared was cooking tonight. 👨‍🍳

Former Philadelphia 76ers guard Patrick Beverley is leaving the NBA next season to sign with Hapoel Tel Aviv BC. Unique choice to say the least...

Cam Payne leaves Philadelphia to join arguably their biggest competitors in the Knicks on a one-year deal. Thoughts on the move for New York?

@willadelphia3 I love the Bertans acquisition. That size and shooting combo 🔥🔥

@SSN_76ers Our best bet might be signing both Bertans and Morris to minimums

Here’s a few options for Philadelphia to go after at PF: Dorian Finney-Smith (TRADE) Davis Bertans (FA) Harrison Barnes (TRADE) Grant Williams (TRADE) Marcus Morris (FA) Who’s your favorite option on the list?

Following the KJ Martin contract, Philadelphia can essentially only sign free agents to minimum deals. This means any major addition at PF will likely take place later in the season.
