If you're Philly do you offer Embiid and spare parts?
Why would Milwaukee want any part of Embiid unless Philly totally gutted themselves to compensate for that contract?
And if so, Why would Giannis extend if they can't contend?
Regarding the Wiz and Giannis? Funny, but Davis gets Nola top pick with Zion, Mavs top pick with Flagg, and now Wiz get the top pick! Wiz can do the pick and Davis to cover the money but also has to add something. They have Trae, but after that are they "contending" as per Giannis wish?
The most logical thing I have read is Giannis to Boston and he plays with Tatum and White, Brown to ATL, and ATL sends its chest of goodies to Milwaukee. Something to that effect. Miami really does not have the goods to do the trade and compete and Brooklyn really has no established players to speak of. MPjr? they can offer a compelling package but I don't see a contender there with him.
Embiid, Lillard, Davis........examples of bad contracts becomeing a burden to the team. We had our fair share historically. This new CBA makes it even more trechorous! Get over the apron and stuck is very problematic.
And in the end Lakers get swept and were is Luka? Not fat, but on the bench not able to play when most needed. I not saying they beat the Thunder but that was a pretty good team they put together this year. Luka sustained an 8 week injury. Thats two months!!!
Rui shot 57% in 10 playoff games this year. Career? .516% in 41 career playoff games. He steps it up in the post season!
