Sixers, Knicks and Celtics..... Old school Eastern Conference Side note: Paul George signing with the Sixers, will extend not only the career of Joel Embiid, but of Paul George too.
Chuck is right about Embiid needing to be in Shape. Whenever Zion gets injured it’s always about his weight and Joel is also near 300 pounds running up and down and no one ever brings that up.
@@zureai If he weighed as much as he did when he was first coming into the league it would benefit him more. If he got down to 260-250 it would help him move fast and be more explosive. He doesn’t need to weigh 280.
its deserved tho Philly invested everything theyve been saving into this team. It won't kill the team but it will make slumps a lot worse. Similar to clippers last year when they started off bad the conclusions that were being made were fucking insane (ex: that one rant that went viral about how harden is not the system)
@@Nikketmzee yeah obviously we gotta see how the chemistry goes & everything. But you’re right about the injuries it stinks, but in all honesty I’m basing my opinion more off of a great looking bench & maxey continuing to improve!
Chuck doesn’t watch the Sixers. Joel doesn’t need the ball to be effective. His presence on the court alone on both ends especially defense is game-changing.
My honest opinion is that the closest they had to going to the ECF was in 2023 vs Boston. No reason they should have lost that series when they were up, 2021 with the infamous Ben Simmons choke and 2019 with the Kawhi game winner. Them going to the finals in the situation is pretty slim. When it comes to winning it all just like Allen Iverson the 76ers have wasted Embiids prime. Having Al Horford, Embiid, and Simmons??? Who’s gonna win anything with three centers and one that’s basically an offensive liability. Then you have Harden who will give you 45 one game and then 11 and 20 turnovers the next game one of the most inconsistent players ever and lazy. Granted the Celtics series in 2023 is no excuse to lose when you’re up and drop two games in a row. 2021 Ben Simmons being a liability on offense not shooting and not having and legitimate firepower on the perimeter as Tobias Harris is one of the biggest sellouts I’ve ever seen. This past season Embiid shouldn’t have came back. He should have just recovered and got back into shape and lost weight. He had his best statistical post season in his career averaging 34 and 11 against New York, Maxey did his thing and that was really about it. Tobias had one good game and was nowhere to be found for the rest of the series. The same with Kyle Lowry and we just couldn’t keep up with the offensive explosion from Divencenzo, and Josh Hart playing out of there minds. Let alone the fact that the Sixers rely entirely to much on Joel to carry the scoring load on offense and anchor on defense. It got to a point that the team would be -30+ whenever he was off the floor. This is probably the best roster he will get to be built around him. They have to do something this year.
Two weeks later Guerschon Yabusele enters the chat 😏. One position on the 76er's they were light & a great way to fill out the roster (taking Chuck's old job 😁). Coming back to the NBA on a minimum contract a lot less pressure than 1st round draft pick coming into the league for the first time (but may end up a starter if play during the Olympics is any indication 😚). The Sixers seem to really have a great roster but obvious challenge will be to get all the pieces to work together (especially for our host here)! Best wishes to Paul! Philly can be a tough crowd & press brutal (thrill of victory & agony reading about it the next day.. 🙄) but love those who give their all 😘Charles knows. - tc! PS - Speaking (up) from a player safety standpoint NBA teams need to keep the side-shows off the court (as a fan going to a game - not what I want to see anyway..). Why, because NBA players running up down the court sweat a lot. So do dance teams on commercial breaks (a time when the court should be mopped up - especially around the basket). Teams & the arenas they play in need to do a better job keeping their (multi-million dollar) players safe. Seen too many players get hurt (including Joel..) from something easily preventable, slipping on a wet court.
Embiid is injured all the time, due to this bs flopping. Charles is exactly right, Embiid is a very selfish player and with this team there is no need to be. Dominate when need to; but to trust in "this new team."
@podcastp Paul George please read!!!! I’ve been a sixers fan since AI (I’m in my thirties). Please please please, embiid is not a closer and he is the harden of big men. The bigger the stage the smaller the performance. When we get to the playoffs and embiid starts to not do well we need you take over. I’m hoping Tyrese can become that closer and that true alpha because embiid is not that guy. But until Tyrese takes that final step we do not have that guy that can put a team on their back. I watched you in Indy and you have that in you. Please please please remember that no matter what he does in the regular season, he does not deliver in the playoffs. He is the harden of big men and you need to take note of that. Who cares if he’s the “man” he is not the man when it counts and we need you take that place in the playoffs. I’m hoping Tyrese takes that step though but last offeseason was a disappointment.
@@alexlasher2525 I have watched every single series he’s been in. He is just as responsible as everybody else that has choked. If you disagree you either haven’t seen him in the playoffs or you’re way to bias. He is the James harden of big men 10000%
Philly gives us that Doc Rivers Clippers vibe. Hope PG can add to this team. They've been underachieving for years and the window is closing. Boston still is the CLEAR favorite.
@Apexssb close but Boston has proven in my opinion without doubt. The facts are they are champions and Holiday was the missing link. Can't wait to see what NY does with Bridges.
I’m from Philly so I understand where you’re coming from. Obviously I’m going to support my team and hope they win, but I can see why you made that comment.
Put in his contact stay off the floor don’t loose I will fine him 10 000 a flop on the floor or anything you’re 7 ft 1 almost 300 pounds you should never be on the floor
@@KD_SWAGGER I’m convinced it was something personal that we’re not being told about, it never added up in my eyes. He was one of the best sixers to ever step on the court. It had to have been a personal beef or something.
I wish embiid play for France yes embiid play bad in Olympic but I blame coach Steve kerr worse rotation adjustment usa Olympic teams c'mon look wat he did jeson Tatum AD Anthony Edward embiid all play less time holiday & white play more then those guys lucky usa win Olympic gold nt bcus coach but curry lebron booker & embiid play very well semifinal vs Serbia shut down joker score 19 points 4 block great pass to curry
P jus like Chuck will NOT win a damn thing ! When th lights is bright jus like Chuck they fold ! FOH wit th glazing on a incomplete team heavily leaning on Embiid
@@haroonsyyed1811people hate clippers so they’re not getting the love but yes clippers had a great summer. They are way deeper than last year and replaced Paul George with the guy that completely shut him down in the playoffs for 200m less
Adding George, Drummond, Martin was HUGE. And they still have another big move they can make at PF.
Yabusele!
P George we welcome you to Philly. I think it was an awesome move for you and we got your back!!! Just have fun and enjoy our city and fan base.
Charles Barkley- talk about a guy that gave you everything he had on the court... and sometimes off the court. lol. People forget how great he was.
All the best to you Paul....wish you nothing but the best
Let’s go PG!!
maybe this was before Embiid outplayed Jokic in the semis
Embiid watched this pod which is why he did lol
Sixers, Knicks and Celtics..... Old school Eastern Conference
Side note: Paul George signing with the Sixers, will extend not only the career of Joel Embiid, but of Paul George too.
If Embiid plays like he did last season and Maxey keeps developing, squad is looking strong. Hope you guys can stay healthy 💪💪
if somehow yall get D Rose on the podcast, it would be so amazing!! pls make it happen
Joel Embiid had one job and that was to bring home an Olympic Gold Medal 🏅 AND NOT GET HURT! WHICH HE DID..GO SIXERS
Chuck is right about Embiid needing to be in Shape. Whenever Zion gets injured it’s always about his weight and Joel is also near 300 pounds running up and down and no one ever brings that up.
Zion is like 5 inches shorter
Not the point
Embiid is 7ft man ..
Embiids an overrated crybaby. Thats the issue.

Amen
Chuck is hilarious
The expectations to win it all will kill this team.

Similar to clippers last year when they started off bad the conclusions that were being made were fucking insane (ex: that one rant that went viral about how harden is not the system)
Time will tell.
cant wait for them to get 2nd rounded lmao
Wait till the bucks figure out how to play together
All of us in da gatdamn comments after every Game gone kill it🤷🏽♂️🍻🍺lol
October 23 it all begins!!!
Great advice Paul!
Let’s go PG!!
Best roster in the nba right now, I really feel that way.
Keep lying to yourself man, embiid is soft and injury prone, and pg is unfortunately injury prone as well, I hope that’s not the case tho
@@Nikketmzee yeah obviously we gotta see how the chemistry goes & everything. But you’re right about the injuries it stinks, but in all honesty I’m basing my opinion more off of a great looking bench & maxey continuing to improve!
It’s Dallas and Boston that’s the top twi
Celtics, Nuggets, Dallas, Miami, Suns, Knicks, Orlando, even the Lakers are all better
@@thewatcher5550 MIAMI??? SUNS??? ORLANDO??? LAKERS??? tripping off the heavy pack
Embid could do a Wilt Chamberlain and lead the league in assists 💪🏾
Yessss sir let’s get us one
What yall gonna get hope the 2nd round in the playoffs an pray embid stay healthy cause Philly should of been won one
Upgrading from Tobias to PAUL GEORGE is an insane leap. Joel never had this kind of spacing ever. Tobias was a blackhole on offense.
Ball Knower
Seen this story before so lets hope something will actually happen for wayoff P

I say 25 games tops

The team looks great but the problem is two of its 3 best players are choke artists.
Charles forgot about dem Grizzlies.
No doubt Barkley…
So glad we didn't hear the Moses malone lose weight story

Yeah right
Guerschon YABUSELE will shine with the 76ers. 😃

I hope Embiid looking at LJ in the Olympics and his fitness level at 40 yrs old inspires him.
If Porzingis is healthy, i genuinely don’t see anybody beating my Celtics. Celtics damn near become unbeatable with him out there.
