I'll be honest, I give Embiid some credit. He's still out there trying to carry this squad and playing 38+ minutes a night. He knows he has to for them to have a chance. But yikes, Tobias and Horford are barely helping out lol

I'd say they should trade him, but who would actually want either of them?

Would have to offload Simmons or Embiid alongside one of Tobi/Al for anyone to bite

Lol that'd be such a failure. Imagine if PHI still had Jimmy Butler instead of Harris right now

The way C's are playing today (except for the first several minutes) is the recipe for success. Team basketball, high energy, great concentration on defense and calm confident offense. Keep it up!)

[Neurotic Guy]

Granted

Yeah. Also, I meant failure in that, the trade would look like they are doing it to unload a bad contract, therefore not getting much value. The wiser move would be to deal one of Embiid or Simmons for either 1-2 great future picks, or another established star that you could pair with the other who isn't traded.

Beautiful set up from Jaylen to Gwill!

[jpotter33]

GWILLLLL!!!

[hwangjini_1]

embiid doesnt even raise his hands on defense anymore. good.

[gouki88]

Grant for $2.5m is giving us more than Al for $27.5m is giving Philly

[tstorey_97]

It's tough being down by 20 ain't it?

[Phantom255x]

OMG a great 3rd quarter by this team!?!

Outscoring them 20-8 so far.

[Atzar]

Grant is a hell of a useful player if he can consistently knock down open threes like this.

We're the best 3rd quarter team in terms of +/- for the season, just been rough as of late

[SparzWizard]

If the C's can play like they have been playing in the 2nd and 3rd quarter every game in the playoffs, I like our chances for a championship.
