No one knows if Embiid can stay healthy. It's not exactly a hot take to say a big man with foot problems is going to have health issues.
It becomes a hot take when you categorically state he will never be healthy and to not expect any contribution from him at all. Also funny to see him say he's not worth an additional 13 wins.
IF he was healthy would there be a minutes restriciiton? If he was healthy would he be playing in back to backs? If he was healthy would he have played one of the last two games? again too early to call on his health.

i've admitted before it's shocking how good Embiid has been so far which I think you agree with. No one saw him being this good this year after a 2 year layoff. it's one of the most stunning things we've seen around here.

I am must glad you've finally learned to spell his name.

and no never said they needed to be championship caliber this year. the process to have worked needs to produce that type of team eventually. right now they are what 4 years in and still at 17-27. Long way to go to call the process a success. long long way.
He was always going to have minutes restrictions in his first year back. You categorically stated he would never be healthy and to not expect any production out of him at all....while saying there was no way Saric would be here this year. Wrong on both counts.

Nobody promised a championship to you. We've only seen one pro championship in this town in over 30 years. That's a ridiculously hot takey thing to say.

All people said was this 3 year process was the best possible avenue towards getting a team that could compete at that level. You can make the argument that the Sixers are in better shape than the other teams in the city right now.

Enjoy the ride.

so you didn't answer the question(s). is he healthy or not? if he is healthy why agree with minutes restrictions?

absolutely was wrong on Saric but almost everyone was. And again no one expected Embiid to be this good this early. NO ONE.

I never said champsionship. i said championship caliber. they have to get to the top of the eastern conference or very close to it. so you are saying tanking for 4 years was ok even if they only get to mediocrity like they were before the Hinkie process? umm ok sure

He is healthy. They are being as cautious as possible with him, which is smart. You said to not expect any production at all and to be lucky if we got something for him in a trade. Ridiculous.

I know you were wrong on both counts. Agreed.

Nobody promised you a championship or a championship caliber team, Takes. They tanked for 3 years because it was the best possible avenue to put them into that position. A decade of doing things the other way got them nowhere. This is the same stuff that has been explained to you for the past few years now. Patience is a virtue. This is the first year out of the tank, and you're already seeing results. Onward and upward.

never heard of a rookie being healthy and having his minutes restricted and not playing back to backs but yea ok.

hated the winningest football coach in town because he didn't win enough but ok with mediocrity even after tanking (including the 2nd worst record in NBA history). very interesting. utterly fucking stupid, but interesting.

http://www.businessinsider.com/sam-hinkie-explains-sixers-tanking-plan-2015-2
from the above link

At his press conference, Hinkie explained his thinking.

He said that the only way to win an NBA title is to have a team that can win 55+ games every year. And the only way to have a team that can win 55+ games every year is to get great players. And the only way to get great players is to have enough picks to either 1) draft a great player, or 2) put together a trade package for a great player that can help you make a "big leap."

so yea your boy tanked for a championship caliber team straight from his mouth. try again juggler try again

Well when you miss two seasons in a row....I think it's smart to be cautious. Again--you said to expect zero production out of him at all.

And your second paragraph makes zero sense....like most of the diarrhea you spout out of your keyboard.

by the way you've totally misrepresented and/or misunderstood my comment on Embiid from a year ago but par for the course from the folks here.

let's all hope tanking leads to better than mediocrity even if the great juggler is ok with mediocrity after tanking.

Yeah, I'm all for mediocrity after tanking. Sign me up!

Point.....sailed directly over your head as usual. How you came to that conclusion from this discussion is beyond anyone who has read through these posts.

This "raise the cat thing" is a little confusing to me

No Coder · January 2017

No All Star berth for Embiid. The East team does not have any C's. Millsap has had another quality year, but surely the East need a BIG man on their bench.

James Harden is pretty good. I think the Sixers handled themselves well last night in front of a national audience. Rockers are damn good team.

The Rockers? yeah they were a good wwe team back in the 80's/90's

pretty good? He's def. top 10, maybe top 5. But yeah The Sixers played pretty well against a very good team. Bulls up next.

The Juggler · January 2017

Sixers turned down a trade offer from Cavs for TJ. Say what you want about the guy but he's certainly made the most of his opportunity in this league. I'm good with him as a backup pg once this team gets good...

eeriepadave · January 2017

Need to work on their defense now, opponents are averaging like 115 points in the past 5 games.

JK_Livin · January 2017

Big win over the Kings for that pick swap.

The Fixer · February 2017

someone on this board said the lakers would be good this year. wanted the laker pick to convey last year (for Kris Dunn, who blows). Also same guy wanted D'angel Russell. 610 action. hahaha

trust the process kids. wish hinkie was around to see it through. business as usual - Process is on point. TTP

Go Lakers (please win some games you losers). Everyone beat the Kings. Sixers keep losing every game by one point.

I like Ilyasova but they need to start moving people so they can open up roster spots, strategize on cap space, and let saric/simmons play. I'd sell high. Also, if someone wants McConnell (who has been great), dump him. Randle is prob the same player -- possibly better because he can shoot. Backup PGs don't have value and TJ is not a starter on a good team.

Trade Okafat for a bag of balls. I'd showcase that fat fuck to try to trade him (not getting anything), which also helps tank for the next few weeks. Losing is still good for the rest of this season. Next year it's on

The Juggler · February 2017

Two instances where the poster above indicated he wanted the Sixers to take Russell:
http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/comment/5809260#Comment_5809260

http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/comment/5858423#Comment_5858423

Now he says he doesn't like him, and in his next breath calls the guy Hinkie took one slot after a "bag of balls." You are quite incoherent at 4 in the morning. No doubt in my mind Hinkie would've, rightly, taken Russell over Okafur had the SIxers had the 2nd pick. I'd much rather have him than Okafur right now and smart, rational, Sixers fans would agree with that.
-------
The Lakers would've been much better had they not made some horrible moves last summer. Everyone knows this.
-----
For someone who was so irrationally upset when Colangelo first got the job, I'm surprised to hear you like Ilyasova. Maybe this shows some growth? ....nah
----

And just for fun, remember when you irrationally wanted the Sixers to trade for Carmello Anthony? ha
