There was a lot of doubt if Philly was a true contender this summer, but most thought they had a real good offseason. Stole Paul’s george from the clippers while having the clippers first. Some thought the clippers were going to be one of the worst teams in the west. They got a great deal on Martin, stealing him from the Heat. No on in Philly probably cares with the Eagles run, but man has that not panned out.
Speaking of the clipps, i see djj has not been starting lately and the last five games, he is only playing like 20 minutes a night.
For his entire GM career, Morey seems to have pursued big-name stars above all else.
Sometimes it’s worked out okay for him, but lots of times it’s been a failure.
He swung big on Paul George, and so far it’s mostly a whiff.
The unavailability of Embiid has put a hard stop to any championship aspirations, and his surliness has poisoned the fan base a bit.
Because their depth is so thin, they’re giving huge minutes to journeymen like Oubre, who, although he has performed okay, is probably a 6-10- roster slot guy on a good team.
