He will not get the max unless its a super desperate and highly mismanaged team. Why? Doctors pre-draft red flagged him for having serious future issues that will end his career.


Anyone who thinks a guy averaging 10 games per year deserves a max is delusional

You literally made up the first part of your post and then called other people delusional. That's an impressive lack of self awareness.

The best part is that you wrote so poorly that you described the eventual medical outcome of every NBA player.

This was a masterpiece of hot takery. Bravo.

I'm not sure the first part is entirely I made up. I feel like there were a few teams that it came out had taken them off their board. Not a lot but a few. I'll also say again randy you used to add some interesting commentary on this board about the 76ers but for months all you have done is insult other posters here with one liners. I don't get why you would do that on another teams board.

Because those people deserve it. The dismissive arrogance of people who have no idea what they are talking about is probably the most irritating quality you can have in a discussion.

Don't want to pay Embiid cuz of injuries? Fine! He's been hurt a ton, it's a valid view point. I disagree but it's essentially about risk tolerance and everybody has a different perspective on that.

The idea that "doctors" (what doctors?) mysteriously "red flagged" a guy we know that the Kings, Sixers and Celtics medical staffs all green lit is comical. He had a broken bone, not a degenerative knee condition.

Chris Bosh was red flagged, Isaiah Austin was red flagged, those guys are red flags.

And then after a wholly inaccurate argument backed up by, well nothing, he calls everyone else delusional.
