There’s an almost 100% certainty Embiid will be requesting a trade next summer as the Sixers do a total rebuild. There’s just absolutely no chance in hell that Morey would pass on Norman Powell in favor of Robert Covington’s expiring contract if he was still trying to win a championship with Joel Embiid. None. He stalled on trading Harden this long just for cap relief? The fact he reneged on resigning Harden in the first place was an early sign. Then no extension for Maxey, Tucker and Tobias are also free agents with no indication they’ll be staying. Anyone who thinks he’s not nuking the team after this Clippers trade is delusional. Your team has the MVP, one of the best centers in NBA history, and this clown GM of yours is starting over from scratch.
So Embiid wanted Harden gone, wants Tobias and Melton Gone, wanted Tucker gone, and wants to risk Maxey getting poached next summer? Just so he can have four power forwards who happen to be on expiring contracts?
You think this is what Embiid wants?
